Toll Bar Farm Renovation & New Build

Project Description

Client: Adrian Smith
Location: Walthem
Project type: Ex-Farm demolish and re-build.
Surface Area: 11,600 square/ft
Year Completed: 2022

The disused farm Adrian had was in desperate need of a renovation; and a new lease of life in the form of a re-build is exactly what we treated it with! With the 11,600 square feet we had to play with, we decided to go with a modern and sleek looking new-build with clean, dark accents throughout.

The Challenges

This project was started post-pandemic and was very testing at times when we needed materials and we managed to overcome these challenges thanks to our fantastic community of partners and suppliers.

The Cooperage, Grimsby

Project Description

Client: Enabling Homes
Location: Grimsby
Project type: Flats Conversion and two new builds
Surface Area: 20,000 square/ft
Year Completed: 2021

This conservation protected building used to be a “Cooperage” - the premises in which barrel or cask making would take place. The forgotten art had left the building over 55 years ago and was in need for some much needed TLC and repair.

The Challenges

Locally listed and in a conservation area, meant we was up against a lot of red tape in the planning process but we managed to gut and refurbish it (for the first time since 1965).

Hull Flats Conversion

Project Description
Location: Hull
Project type: Flats Conversion
Surface Area: 20,000 square/ft
Year Completed: 2019

A full conversion creating 28 homes for Hull residents. We had a satisfying time converting the old YPI building into a modern, warm and high-end block of flats.

The Challenges

We had to work around the fact that the YPI building is a Grade 2 Listed building in a conservation area and still managed to conduct a successful make-over and full domestic conversion.

North London Home Extension

Project Description

Client: James Harris
Location: North London
Project type: Home Extension
Surface Area: 8 m2
Year Completed: 2015

The Harris family home was perfect apart from having a dining room that was too small, James Harris contacted Convert 4 Less after he was referred to us by one of his friends who is also a previous happy customer of Convert 4 Less.

The Challenges

Mr Harris came to us wanting to create more space in is home for his growing family. After speaking with Chris the managing director of Convert 4 Less, they agreed the best way to make the most of the space that the Harris family home provided was to extend the Dining room out but just the right amount so that it didn’t take too much space away from the Garden.

After listening to James’s requirements Chris was able to plan the extension and provide them with a proposal which stated a time frame for the construction. As with all project atConvert 4 Less we aim to under promise and over deliver and we was able to deliver the finished project as seen in the photographs 2two weeks ahead of schedule, much to the delight of Mr Harris and his family.
