Case studies

Commercial to residential, it may be last orders for some of our great British pubs, for other’s its discovering exciting ways of transforming commercial structures into luxury residential dwellings. The growing trend of converting old inns offers new homes a unique history whilst being packed with character and features.

The scope of this ambitious project was to restore and transform an abandoned Neo-Gothic Cemetery Keeper’s Lodge with adjoining public facility into a luxurious mansion in just 12 months.   Works included demolishing the adjoining public facility to enable the construction of a new basement.

The proposed new build construction would be a luxury ground floor extension which would run the footprint of the redundant public facility to offer a 4,000 square foot subterrain space with key features such as 13-meter swimming pool, 2 additional bedrooms, a tv games room and office space.

With high ceilings and spaces which feel luxurious there is simply something that draws us towards the vast expanse of space and the warmth offered by listing buildings such as converted barns and farmhouses, often because of their idyllic rural locations.

Delta Registered Installers, Tywi Damp Proofing were commissioned with the sympathetic conversion of an old farmhouse located in Chepstow. The project scope was to convert 1 listed farmhouse into 5 separate dwellings.

Classic under pavement vaults are commonly found in cities across the United Kingdom.

Historically, in older properties, vaults were used as coal cellars and were not designed for modern living.  Basement vaults can extend under the pavement, even as far as roadways.

Basement vaults can be riddled with water ingress/rising and penetrating damp/and can even be prone to flooding.
