Summer Home Maintenance Tips from Team Red Box: Loft Conversions

Wimbledon property gets a new kitchen 6

Welcome to Our New Series with Weekly Tips for Summer Home Projects

Conversions and Extensions

This weeks Top Tip: Plan your extension or loft conversion projects ideally in Spring/Summer/Early Autumn

If you’re looking for more space without moving, a loft conversion or a rear extension could be the right decision for your property.

But when is the right time of year to start work on this project?

In an ideal situation Spring & Summer is the best time, whilst it can be done all year around, the spring – summer with its typically milder dryer weather would be less drafty and less disruption to work, as well as more day light hours.

The winter months can be a little more unpredictable, heavy rain and weather, causing delays and disruption to the limited daylight working hours available.

So consider all these factors when planning an extension – and give us a call to help plan the right time and strategy.

Bathroom to shower room update in Wimbledon

Bathroom to Shower Room Transformation

In 2020, we transformed a bathroom space for our client in Wimbledon, SW19.

We ripped out the existing bathroom to start, removing the bathtub to replace with a shower enclosure to maximise the space and modernise the facilities.

We then installed under floor heating, wooden flooring, and replaced the walls and retiled.

 

 

The client had some kind words to say on Houzz

Red Box did a superb job of replacing my bath with a walk in shower cubicle.

Everything was done to time and on estimate.

They were also very pleasant people to deal with. I cannot recommend them too highly.

Summer home maintenance tips from team Red Box: Roof Repairs

Welcome to our new series with weekly tips for home projects you can do this summer

Does your roof need work?

This weeks Top Tip: Roofing and External Repairs!

Whilst the sun is out and there’s less rain showers it’s time to get that tile in the roof repaired or repaired. Whilst you’re at it – check on your loft insulation too, although the past few weeks have been a bit uncharacteristically damp!

Summer is also a prime time in the housing market for buyers and sellers, and one thing that can be considered/inspected is the quality of your roof!

The summer months have more (and better quality of light) which means you’ll be able to spot any problems and any contractors can work more efficiently without light/time restraints. More day light hours also mean the contractors can work safely on your property for longer each day, barring any complications, completing the work in fewer days – giving you a little less disruption!

Benefits of Roof Repairs

  1. Save money on your energy bills
  2. Add value to your home
  3. Extend the life of your air conditioning or heating
  4. Improve the security of your home
  5. Cut down dramatically on outside noise
