Introduction to the Project

We recently embarked on an exciting project in Homefield Road, Hertfordshire, in conjunction with Steene Associates & Frampton Martin Sage Design. The team demolished an old home and constructed a piled basement for a luxurious new residence. This blog post will take you through the details of this remarkable transformation.

Demolition and Site Preparation

The first step in our project was the careful demolition of the existing home. This process required meticulous planning to ensure the safety of both the workers and the surrounding properties. Once the old structure was safely dismantled, we prepared the site for the construction of the new home.

Constructing the Piled Basement

One of the key features of this project was the construction of a piled basement. We opted for contiguous piled walls to create an epic basement space. This method involves drilling piles closely together to form a continuous wall, providing exceptional strength and stability. The piled basement not only adds significant living space but also enhances the structural integrity of the new home.

The Benefits of a Piled Basement

Incorporating a piled basement into the new home design offers numerous advantages. Firstly, it maximises the use of available land by creating additional underground living areas. Secondly, it increases the overall value of the property by providing more functional space. Lastly, the contiguous piled walls offer superior protection against soil movement and water ingress, ensuring a durable and forever long-lasting basement.

Conclusion

This project in Homefield Road, Hertfordshire, showcases the potential of modern construction techniques in creating luxurious and functional living spaces. By demolishing the old home and incorporating a piled basement with contiguous piled walls, we have laid the foundation for a truly exceptional residence.
