CHALLENGES OVERCOME

The age of the building being worked in was always going to present the typical challenges experienced with these such as old electrics and plumbing techniques.

Completing the structural and supporting steel work in an occupied flat was very challenging due to safety concerns, access and ensuring structural soundness. Planning permission would be required for all of these alterations. However, all of these challenges were successful overcome with careful planning.
