Design and Build your Dream House…



PROPERTY OWNERS

From plan to property…

Design & Build is a fresh concept offered to the owners of all kind of residences, across London. This incorporates a project’s planning and design stage, all matters relating to obtaining planning permission, adhering to Building Regulations and the management of all the important structural and construction issues.

We understand the importance of your needs and aspirations, to ensure that we will complete an exceptional home that is built to last. A Feasibility Study will enable us to maximise the space of your Edwardian, Victorian or Georgian house, which is ultimately combined with an added property value.

Our comprehensive service includes the drawing-up of your dream property, finalising materials and details; the management of the entire process and the drafting of a detailed project budget and work schedule.

Construction innovation

As building contractors, we are constantly researching and keeping up to date with the latest construction technology. Attention to the environmental impact and the property`s energy efficiency are the factors of our innovation roadmap.

We specialise in structurally challenging projects and we partner with off-site construction companies, architects and designers, to build with a low impact on the environment and the existing built areas. Off-site construction can often allow lower budgets and more flexible design and planning options.

Finishing and materials

Finishing is the most visible aspect of a house renovation and makes a big difference in the overall happiness after a big refurbishment project. houseUP has a special attention to finishing details, both in choosing materials and in installation. We provide high quality finishing and materials at extremely competitive prices. In particular, we have direct access to the top Italian manufacturers of porcelain tiles and kitchens. This means getting higher spec finishes for budget, or lower costs for the finishes in the specs.

A team of architectural designers, party wall specialists, structural engineers, surveyors, project managers, subcontractors and builders are all committed to fulfilling your vision, at a budget you can afford.

Add Global will be pleased to manage the whole process of securing planning permission and subsequently ensuring that all work is carried out to the satisfaction of the relevant local authority’s Building Control team.

The Build…

A structural engineer for each project ensures higher standards in the construction, with a particular attention to the structural work. Especially when altering an old building with structural modifications, we can dynamically prevent, detect and sort out structural issues. With our structural onsite optimisation, the findings after the strip out or during the construction don’t cause delays or additional costs.

A dedicated Project Manager will be present to oversee the quality of the work throughout the build. We have Project Management processes in place that involve the detailed definition of a Project Plan, followed up by site visits and engagement with you throughout the build process. This ensures that every project can be delivered within the agreed budget, whilst retaining the flexibility for alterations to the detail of the renovation.

We pride ourselves for fully complying with all Health & Safety policies and construction regulations doing so by implementing appropriate monitoring and supervision procedures. Safety during the build is extremely important and it is our on-site Project Manager’s responsibility to ensure this daily.

Throughout the project everything is focused on ensuring that the work runs smoothly, and that the vision of your future home becomes a reality.
