Laying a New Lawn and Tree Removal

Laying New Lawn Project Information

The Brief

The customer had wanted a new lawn and make a child friendly garden without the need for much garden maintenance.

Results/Solution

All borders, trees and shrubs were removed from the side areas to make way for the new lawn. The old turf was removed, tree stumps were grinded out by a contractor while the soil was prepared by rotavating and leveling to ensure it was ready to take the new turf. An area was provided to take the trampoline. Landscape fabric was laid under the bark to supress any weed growth. Separating the lawn and the bark by installing a timber edge was done to avoid migration of the bark onto the new lawn.

Tiling Utility Room with Subway Tiles

Tiling Project Information

The Brief

The customer wanted to make the utility room easier to keep clean as it was where the dog was brought in from outside.  Tiling the walls would make cleaning the walls much easier.

Results/Solution

The customer selected and purchased a Grey subway tile and white grout.  Part tiling of the wall made more sense being the most cost effective solution.  The end finish of the tiles looks great.

Bathroom Installation York

Bathroom Installation York

Bathroom Project Information

The Brief

My customer wanted to refurbish the family bathroom for his tenants as they were expecting a baby in the new year.  The old bathroom was functional but tired and needed a refurbishment.

Results/Solution

The old bathroom was removed along with the electric shower and replaced with a new bathroom suite and bath mixer tap which would run off the newly installed combi-boiler and provide a much better shower.

New tiling was hung in white with a vertical feature tile to break up the white tiles.  This would add a feature without being so unique as to date quickly.  The grey feature tiles were complimented by the grey wood effect vinyl floor tiles and chrome fittings.

The old standard radiator was replaced with a chrome towel rail which would provide very similar heat but would allow a more useful addition to the bathroom.

All work was completed by me - Tiling, Bathroom replacement, flooring, plumbing etc.
