Completion Time: 1 Month
Budget: £25k 

The client approached Bourke Build with a design to create a separate room to their spectacular swimming pool. The room was to be a changing room, walk in shower and bathroom next to the waterfall which conceals the room from the swimming pool. Bourke Build assisted with the design and completed the fit out.  Dating back to the 14th century the historical deco panelling which is now extremely popular was installed on every wall. Decorated with specialised paint to stop moisture damage in shade Luja 7 and then finished with gold ironmongery to achieve the final look.

“Sean and his team did a superb job for us, turning the unfinished shell of our extension into a fabulous bathroom/ changing area; including a walk in shower, panelled walls with tiled floor, lighting design and full decoration. His attention to detail is second-to-none and you really feel like he is a safe pair of hands. Sean communicates well at all stages, providing regular updates against the project plan and invoicing schedule. What’s more, he’s a likeable person who was a pleasure to work with. I would never hesitate to recommend Bourke Building and Refurbishment”

Battersea Remodel & Refurb

Case Studies

Completion Time: 5 Months
Budget: £165k

Bourke Build were instructed to work in collaboration with HYM Joinery to transform a 100-year-old Victorian style terraced house into a luxurious modern living space. 

As the property had been vacant for a vast period with no maintenance and the structure significantly degraded, the rear of the building was near to collapse. The first section of the works was to stabilise and rebuild the rear.  Bourke Build then moved on to the internal structural alterations which entailed only the front and rear facades remaining. 

An extensive refurbishment had to be carried out to save the building and make it fit for habitation. Fortunately, with years of experience and the right propping equipment Bourke Build managed to complete all the works safely and efficiently. 

3 weeks into the project the architect advised Bourke Build that the client had also purchased next door, and this was also to be refurbished in tandem with the derelict property (no pressure!).

Bramhope Refurbishment

Completion Time: 4 Months
Budget: £80k

In 1999 before the property was adapted to a dwelling it was once a piggery (yes that’s a house for pigs), now it’s a modernised home for a family to enjoy.

Bourke Build was instructed to manage the project consisting of a full refurbishment to the two-storey building to create better use of the layout and form a large open plan kitchen, dining and lounge area. To bring in natural light they installed a 7-meter window into the kitchen/dining area, which also provides them with the perfect view of the stunning outside surroundings.

Providing a warmth feeling to this family home, they installed underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, in the master bedroom and ensuite. Let’s not forget about the kid’s playroom, within the lounge area Bourke Build created a separate space for the playroom with pocket doors to hide away the toys (every parent’s dream).

“Bourke Build did an outstanding job of managing the project to fully refurbish our family home. Sean shared fair and transparent pricing with realistic timescales at the outset, and remained flexible mid-project as scope changed. At all times we had clear and honest feedback on progress or problems, with a positive approach to finding solutions. Our project spanned the first coronavirus lockdown, and the whole Bourke Build team did a remarkable job of minimising the delay despite challenging circumstances. And the final finish is first class, a result we’re really pleased with.”

Bourke Build was appointed to take on the works of refurbing and remodelling an old Georgian Farmhouse with a strict schedule. Bourke Build constructed a new opening between the kitchen and dining area to make it open plan and formed a new ceiling at a slightly higher level keeping the timber beams exposed. The existing chimney on the ground and first floor level was removed to add additional space. Floor Membranes was installed to provide damp proofing and then overlayed with European Oak flooring.

Much to the delight of the clients, the work was brought in on-budget and time.

Aldwark Manor Hotel

Completion Time: 3 Months
Budget: £120k 

Aldwark Manor Estate with 185 acres of land in the magnificent countryside of Yorkshire was built by Lord Walsingham in the late 1800’s as a wedding present for his eldest daughter. Bourke Build were instructed to undertake the strip out, structural works of the reception area and restrooms. Due to the large scale and height of the reception area this required an excessive amount of specialist propping system to support the structure while undertaking the works. Bespoke frameless glass was installed to the opening of the reception for customers to walk in.

Stone repairs were carried out to restore the heavily damaged masonry arches which resembles the St. Pancreas Station in London which resulted in an extremely pleased client and Architect.
