One of the most rewarding parts of any project is returning to site and seeing ideas become reality.

This was a recent visit with our clients Tony and Kim, alongside Tim Crump of Oakwrights and my brother Dave.

Between us we’ve spent many decades involved in the design and construction of homes like this, but every project still teaches us something new.

The discussion covered design decisions, construction aspirations and the collaborative process that transforms my sketches into a completed home.

It’s easy to focus on the finished photographs, but projects are really built through hundreds of conversations like these.

Thanks to everyone involved in bringing this one to life, particularly Dave who commits to these amazing builds like no other.

Have a good and productive day.

From structure to sanctuary.

A quick look back at the journey from oak frame construction to a near completed home.

Every finished house has a story behind it. This one involved countless decisions, challenges, milestones and a fantastic team effort along the way.

Seeing clients enjoy the finished result makes every step worthwhile.

Open House this weekend with Oakwrights.

Have a good and productive day

Friday’s site visit with our next potential build clients went really well. Always good to meet up with brother Dave and to be able to explain to our audience how we build these amazing homes … this is week 6 of the Oakwrights build!!! 💪

At PJT Custom Build, we help you ‘self build’ your home but remove all stress and worry so you can enjoy the journey.

Hi all…. Hope you had a great weekend. It was a scorcher here in the UK 🥵🌞

In Essex, we are reaching the super-technical stage of our build for

➡️The M&E team working their magic weaving pipes, cables ducts in and around the timber frame

➡️The carpentry team finessing with details such as the shower niches and arches

➡️ Aeroseal have been in to seal up for maximum air tightness and reduced morning reading from 4.0 to 0.4 ACH, which is a 90% improvement in a single day! Separate post on this to follow later in the week.

Have a good and productive day

And another frame raising begins on our Bedfordshire build..!

Oakwrights laid and levelled the soleplates on Monday.

Frame delivery 1 and the crane turned up yesterday and this much is already built.!!

Testament to the principles of MMC and to the skills and organisation of everyone involved that got us to this stage.

We should have this wrapped and watertight in the next 4-6 weeks but potentially even quicker which is super exciting.

We do love a spring/early summer frame raise 🙌🙌🙌

Have a good and productive day

All of a sudden, we have multiple sites on the go again, which is a lot of fun but has taken us away from socials for a bit….

We hope everyone is well and good out there… crazy times to be building at the moment with high demand and volatile markets but we push on!

Big shout out to .tonks and the site teams and all the projects teams, workshop teams and framers for all the hard work and commitment over recent weeks.. 🙌🙌🙌

More updates from our current builds on the story over the weekend and possibly previews of more exciting builds on the horizon….

Have a good and productive day.

This phase of the build is exciting but hard!

The teams have slogged hard on this amazing build for and at times, it’s been almost too hard.

The weather has been against the teams throughout and being a spring pond site,.. it’s WET!

We now need to regain the focus and progress into the crafting phase of this magnificent home for our lovely clients. We need to recall the original intent and then visualise, visualise, visualise! (thanks to AI, we get to do that even better nowadays)

Let’s all pray for dry weather.. lots of it please, so that we can get this wrapped and ready for family adventures!!

Have a good and productive day.

I can honestly say that Dave and I must be amongst the most privileged people working out in this industry right now and we are truly blessed. We get to design and then craft the most amazing homes for the most lovely clients, working with the best teams in the UK.

We get to spend days, if not weeks, making one decision. We get to design the very finest of details about how one material interacts with another. We get to use the very best materials installed by craftspeople not ‘just’ tradies or builders.

We do not do “that’ll do” or “the client will never know”… we craft with pride and honour and we respect our clients implicitly.

All too often builders get lost in the process and they forget the vision. They forget to stand back and take a look, ….revisit the designers vision, again and again and again. Do not forget the designer as without them, the project would not exist. This is not an ego thing,.. it’s a spiritual thing.

Massive shout out to all the teams that have got us this far on a very exciting chapter of our Essex build using the amazing frame and panel system from our long established partners

Joinery from looking just perfect, the carpentry, rendering and roofing teams are absolute artists and we are loving the bricks .blitz.3 and

Scaffold is coming down next week!!!

Have a good and creative day

Now that demolition is complete at our next build in Bedfordshire, it was a Saturday site meet up for Dave and the site ops team today as we GPS locate the slab positions for the amazing house and cartlodge garage we are just about to craft together for our clients.

Dig starts Monday!!! 🪏🪏🪏
