Single Garage to Side of Property

Lees Building Contractors Ltd delivered a bespoke single garage to the side of a property, featuring a pitched roof and carefully matched brickwork. This addition provides secure vehicle storage while seamlessly blending with the existing home’s aesthetic.

Key Works & Features

• Foundations & Groundworks:
  Excavation and concrete strip footings installed to structural engineer specifications, with a waterproof membrane and horizontal DPC for moisture protection.

• Blockwork Inner Leaf & Facing Brickwork:
  Dense blockwork walls clad in matching facing bricks to mirror the main house façade, complete with stainless‑steel wall ties for enhanced stability.

• Pitched Roof Structure:
  Engineered timber rafters and purlins, breathable felt underlay, and clay plain tiles selected to match the existing roofline.

• Garage Door Installation:
  Insulated up‑and‑over or sectional door options, fitted with weather‑seals and secure locking mechanisms.

• Rainwater Goods & Flashings:
  uPVC or metal gutters and downpipes coordinated to existing rainwater systems, plus lead flashings at junctions for watertight performance.

• Interior Finishes:
  Screeded concrete floor ready for vehicle use, plasterboard-lined walls and ceilings, and provision for future electrical sockets and lighting.

Specialist Techniques & Materials

• Brick Matching:
  Hand‑picked bricks graded for colour and texture consistency with the existing property.

• Roof Waterproofing:
  Permo‑vapour breathable underlay and corrosion‑resistant battens to protect the timber frame.

• Damp‑Proofing:
  Full horizontal DPC and cavity trays over openings to prevent moisture migration.

• Precision Carpentry:
  Factory‑engineered trusses and accurately cut timber components for a square, twist‑free roof structure.

Why This Project Stands Out

• Seamless Integration: The garage’s brickwork and roof tiles match the original home, preserving architectural cohesion.

• Durable Construction: Quality blockwork, matched bricks and robust roofing materials ensure decades of reliable performance.

• Functional Design: Ample internal space for one vehicle, with the potential for storage, workbench installation or future electric charging.

• Professional Finish: From foundation to ridge, every detail—from pointing to flashing—is executed to Lees Building Contractors Ltd’s exacting standards.
