Conservatory Bases
Our certified conservatory bases use precision-engineered steel frames for rapid installation. Factory-assembled components arrive ready for one-day fitting, eliminating traditional excavation needs. Stroma-approved systems include underfloor insulation and carry a 25-year guarantee, offering homeowners 40% cost savings compared to wet construction methods.
Modular House Extensions
Steel-framed modular extensions deliver 70% faster completion times. Pre-bricked wall panels slot together without specialist trades, reducing on-site disruption. Systems accommodate sloped sites and tight access points while maintaining U-values from 0.18W/mk for energy-efficient home expansions.
Prefab Walls
Galvanised steel-framed walls combine traditional brick aesthetics with modern engineering. Available in 12+ finishes, these modular units require minimal groundwork. Installation takes hours rather than weeks, with weather-independent delivery schedules ensuring project timelines remain on track.
Garden Room Bases
Purpose-engineered bases for garden rooms eliminate concrete pouring requirements. Our pad foundation system preserves site drainage while supporting insulated flooring. Complete kits include numbered components for straightforward assembly, achieving weatherproof structures within single working days.
DIY Conservatories
User-friendly conservatory kits include pre-numbered components for straightforward assembly. No heavy machinery required, with average installation times of 8 hours. Comprehensive guidance supports homeowners through each construction phase, backed by technical support and quality assurance checks.
