1a Orsman Road was formally an enamelling works industrial unit which was later converted to a private residential dwelling by the current owners. The new construction consists of three, one bedroom flats, new window openings were designed to mirror the existing configuration so appearing as a two storey building from the street.
The building envelope was constructed using a steel frame, timber flat roof, water proofed and insulated with a single ply SIKA membrane, external walls were dense concrete blocks built between steel frame columns, insulted and rendered using a specialist render system.
The most challenging aspect of this project was to access the works to both the south and west elevations as both were obstructed by party walls with fragile flat roofs beneath, the scaffolding had to be designed using internal towers that could support canter levered ladder beams which supported the upper scaffold lifts.

Light well to south/west elevation distributes natural light to the rear rooms of the building the party walls did not permit this.
We installed full mechanical and electrical works including underfloor heating to all three floors and all domestic plumbing services.
