📍 IMMINGHAM – HYBRID SELF BUILD PROJECT
🔨 OFF-GRID HYBRID HOME CONSTRUCTION 🔨
This project is something a little different from a standard self-build.
We’re pleased to be involved in the construction of a fully self-sufficient hybrid home in Immingham, designed to significantly reduce utility costs and operate independently from the grid.
The customer originally started this build last year but encountered difficulties due to ground levels, flooding, and ongoing weather conditions. We have now been brought in to complete all works up to watertight stage, where the customer’s own expertise will then take over.
Works completed so far include:
🔹 Removal of all materials and waste from site
🔹 Excavation and removal of 80 tonnes of soil
🔹 Installation and levelling of 60 tonnes of clean hardcore at a depth of 150mm
🔹 25 tonnes of sand blinding installed at 50mm depth
🔹 DPM membrane installed across the full site area
🔹 Installation of external polystyrene hard wall insulation
🔹 Installation of internal polystyrene separation strips
Next stage of works:
🔹 Installation of 300mm polystyrene build-up to create the floor structure
🔹 Installation and fabrication of structural ring beam
🔹 Concrete foundation pour to complete the substructure ready for the next phase of the build
We look forward to sharing further progress as this unique project develops.
