The Brief

The brief was to create a modern, coastal-inspired open-plan interior without expanding the home’s footprint or undertaking any major structural changes. The design needed to blend seamlessly with the coastal surroundings, creating a fresh and inviting atmosphere.

The challenge

The project came with significant time constraints, requiring completion within an 8-week window. The limited timeframe meant that careful planning and coordination were essential to avoid delays. Additionally, the clients wanted to avoid major structural work, which added a layer of complexity in achieving the open-plan design without altering the existing structure.

The Solution

To meet the tight schedule and design goals, the project was meticulously planned to ensure all subcontractors and external workers were lined up and ready. Every detail was arranged in advance, allowing for a precise, streamlined execution that minimise disruptions and maximise efficiency.

The Outcome

The completed renovation transformed the home into a near-new space with a modern, coastal design that complements its beachside surroundings. The result is an inviting, open-plan interior that offers a fresh aesthetic, all delivered within the 8-week timeframe, meeting both the client’s design vision and project requirements.

Testimonials

"We couldn't be happier with the renovation of our original 1980s house in Milford, which we recently completed with Upperton Construction. This was our second project with Ben and his team, and just like the first, they were excellent! From start to finish, the builders were professional and incredibly skilled. They transformed our outdated space into a modern home that perfectly reflects our style. The attention to detail was impeccable, and every room feels fresh and inviting. What impressed us most was their ability to listen to our ideas and incorporate them while also providing suggestions. The process was seamless, and they kept us informed every step of the way. We are so grateful for the fantastic work they did on our first project, which was a new build in Greenhithe, and this renovation has solidified our decision to continue working with Ben in the future. We highly recommend Upperton Construction to anyone looking to breathe new life into their home!"
