SIPs Kits

Work is progressing on this SIPs Industries kit in Sheffield.  More photos to follow as the kit nears completion.

Grand Designs Live

Unfortunately we will no longer be attending Grand Designs Live at the ExCel Centre in London in April/May.  We were due to attend on the UK SIPs Association stand but due to time constraints caused by the public holiday for the royal wedding there will not now be time for the stand to be completed to standard.

We will be attending Grand Designs Live at the NEC in Birmingham in October.

If you would like to see us in person, we will be at the Scottish Homebuilding and Renovating Show in May and the Southern Homebuilding and Renovating Show in Surrey in June.

International News

After KREV-TEX TV Station in Grand Junction, CO. was irreparably damaged by fire in 2008 the studio manager took the opportunity to rebuild, with a focus on energy efficiency and sound proofing.  They chose Structural Insulated Panels in order to achieve air-tightness and sound proofing.  The full story can be found here.

Grand Designs Live

We'll be at Grand Designs Live at the London ExCel Centre from 29th April to 8th May. 

There is a complimentary ticket in the May 2011 of Grand Designs magazine (out now).  At a cover price of £3.75 and tickets costing £14 if bought in advance, this is a pretty good saving! 

If you prefer to subscribe, there is an offer at the moment giving 50% off subscription and a free ticket.  Details here.

We look forward to seeing you at the show!

Completed Projects

Flat roof section with overhang.

The completed flat roof.  You can see the holding down straps and the SIP Screws.

Once the roof covering is completed, it will tie in seamlessly to to the original tiles.

We've recently completed the kit for this extension on the East Sussex coast.  We're delighted to have received very positive feedback from the architect:

"I've just been down to the site and am very satisfied with the work done ...  Many thanks for the work so far, I'll keep you posted on the progress and look forward to working with you again."

We look forward to seeing progress reports and photographs of the completed building.
