Project Overview

• Location: Rickmansworth (WD3)

• Service: House Extension (Structural Build to Plastered Finish)

The Challenge: Creating Space on a Specific Budget

Our clients in Rickmansworth desperately needed to expand their downstairs living area to accommodate their growing family. However, they had a strict budget in mind. Because the homeowners were keen DIY enthusiasts with an eye for interior design, they requested a tailored building service: they wanted a professional company to handle all the complex structural and technical work, but they wanted to take on the final painting and decorating themselves to save on costs.

They needed a local, accommodating builder who was happy to deliver a watertight, fully plastered shell without pushing them into a full turnkey (fully decorated) package.

 

Our Solution: Expert Build, Ready for the Client’s Vision At PE Property Services Ltd,

we pride ourselves on our flexibility. Led by Phil, our in-house team took this project from the initial groundworks all the way through to a perfectly smooth plaster finish.

We managed all the heavy lifting and technical trades so the client didn’t have to stress about building regulations or structural integrity. Our work on this Rickmansworth extension included:

• Groundworks & Footings: Digging and pouring the foundations to full building control standards.

• Brickwork & Roofing: Constructing the shell, installing energy-efficient windows, and completing a fully weatherproof, insulated roof.

• First & Second Fix: Supplying our certified plumbers and electricians to run all necessary wiring, sockets, and pipework.

• Professional Plastering: Skimming all internal walls and ceilings to a smooth finish, ensuring the client had the perfect surface to paint on.

The Result: The Perfect Blank Canvas

We handed the project back to the client exactly as requested: a secure, warm, fully powered, and beautifully plastered extension. By tailoring our services to exclude the final painting and decorating, we helped the client stay perfectly within their budget while still delivering the high-quality, structurally sound build that PE Property Services Ltd is known for.
