Graham Ford Architects design provides an enlarged Living, Dining and Kitchen Area which dramatically opens up the space from the front to the back of the house ensuring more open and spacious living with natural light from both sides.
GFA designed bespoke joinery for the project including a new kitchen and joinery for the Living and Dining area.
GFA ensured building control compliance was met; ensured all structural requirements were met and advised the clients on appropriate mechanical and electrical system design including heating, underfloor heating, boilers etc.

GFA were responsible for the preparation of tender documentation.
We advised on appropriate contractors to tender for the project and evaluated the tender and then followed this with the preparation and signing of a construction contract.
