Soundproof ceiling & built-in unit in Hove

Just completed a job in Hove for a very nice bloke called Grant. He could hear his upstairs neighbours every move and vice versa. So i suggested bringing the ceiling down with a metal frame system allowing space to be filled with 50mm acoustic insulation and then fix 2 layers of 15mm soundbloc plasterboard ,followed by a plaster skim and coving. The end result was no more noise travelling in either direction .
 Also Grant wanted a unit built into an alcove to take his DVD player/playstation/skybox etc and have room above for books and a cupboard below for storage. The end result was a contemporary unit with hidden bracket shelves with ample space to neatly store everything and hide all cables away.

North Chailey refurb job

Finished kitchen/diner with new wooden floor laid.

Original kitchen and wall between kitchen and diner.

In October I completed a job in North Chailey for a lovely couple called Mike and Dianne, the brief was to open up the kitchen and the dining room by removing the party wall. The party wall turned out to be a load bearing wall so we inserted an RSJ to support the upper floor. Around a 3rd of the kitchen units had to be removed and re-intergrated back into the existing kitchen ie move the oven and re position the hob into the remaining worktop. The original kitchen door was blocked up as the entrance is now thru the dining area. The idea was to provide a light open space so the whole family could be sat around the dining table at Christmas, I think you can see from the before and after shots that this was definately achieved.

Just been back for a return visit to this job to lay oak wooden flooring thru-out most of the downstairs. Really finished off the job nicely, it ran thru the new opening between the kitchen and dining room and into the hallway.

Client feedback - Designed and built unit to hold pair of mixing decks sunk in and vinyl below

This was a great job that I really enjoyed, it really let me be creative and gave me the chance to design and build a one off piece of furniture for a local DJ. The brief was to design a unit that would fit in an alcove to house his decks and mixer with storage underneath for vinyl. We decided that the DJ equipment should be sunk in and the end result result was a really cool looking piece of furniture .
The client said - "Barny has done an excellent job. He got back to me quickly, understood my needs and explained how he was going to do the job. I was confident that he would do a good job and he did! He was trustworthy, tidy and considerate I would highly reccomend him".
