Case Study - New Dwelling, Attleborough, norfolk
We work with variety of clients on a range of projects, each of which presents its own set of unique challenges. We find that the best way of overcoming issues is by getting a better idea of the story behind a build. This could mean discussing the logistics of a 200-plot development, or understanding the specific vision behind a self-build.
Today’s case study concerns a self-build in Attleborough, Norfolk.
We first heard about John Cuthbert’s project when we received a quotation request via our web form. The project required a block and beam floor for a new dwelling. Like many of the self-build projects that we are asked to work on, John’s was not as straightforward as first thought, although we are pleased to hear that things are now progressing steadily.
The story below, kindly penned by Laura Cuthbert, gives an insight into carrying out a block and beam installation independently This may be useful to any readers that are planning on carrying out their own self-build in the future.
We are pleased to have worked with John and Laura on this self-build project. We would urge anyone thinking about carrying out a similar project to follow their example: combine careful planning and research with a problem-solving attitude for unforeseen problems. Floorspan offers an installation service that many of our self-build customers utilise as a cost-effective way of ensuring peace of mind. We are glad that self-installation worked out for the best in this case, and we hope to see pictures of the completed home in the coming months.
