Eco SIP Extensions
Whilst we have many years experience of building using bricks and mortar, we now offer extensions built using SIPS: Structural insulated panels. You can build an eco friendly extension with a finish to suit your taste and planning requirements, whilst benefiting from faster build times, more internal space and energy efficiency to name a few reasons.
What are SIPs ?
Ground Screws: The Smarter Foundation
Instead of digging out tons of soil and pouring concrete, we use ground screws to create a stable, long-lasting foundation. These large steel screws are driven directly into the ground, ready to build on immediately.
Benefits of Ground Screws:
- No Concrete Required: Eliminates drying time and reduces carbon emissions.
- Quick Installation: Typically installed within hours, not days.
- Minimal Disruption: No need for heavy excavation or wet trades.
- Environmentally Friendly: Reusable, recyclable, and causes minimal ground disturbance.
Time Savings Compared to Traditional Builds
Traditional extensions often take weeks just to complete the groundwork and foundation stages — from excavation and shuttering to pouring and curing concrete.
With Eco SIPs and ground screws, those weeks turn into a few days:
Build Time Comparison
Traditional Build
- Groundwork & Foundations: 1–2 weeks
- Main Structure: 3–4 weeks (brick/block)
- Total Time to Weatherproof Shell: 4–6 weeks
Eco SIP + Ground Screws
- Groundwork & Foundations: 1 day
- Main Structure: 3–5 days (SIPs assembly)
- Total Time to Weatherproof Shell: 1 week or less
Ideal for Modern, Low-Energy Homes -If you're planning an eco extension, SIPs are a smart solution. They deliver high performance, long-term savings, and a clean, modern build process.
