Work in Progress

Below are two of the properties under construction. Much of our work is in the planning and details of the individual projects. Although the system in Italy is relatively straight forward, it is in everyones' interest to have all the relevent documentation in place before the build can proceed.

barn conversion in italy
 

New construction of our ecological flagship design. With the ground work and foundations completed the metal re-enforced insulation panels are assembled.
When this stage of the structure has been completed a special concrete render is applied to all the surfaces to make the walls and floors structurally sound and encapsulating the insulation.

110sq Mtr barn conversion under construction.Now that the new roof and floor have been completed, it is waiting windows and internal finishing. This will be carried out by the owners on this self-build project, we will be there on a consultancy basis only.  
 
 

Completed Projects

refurbished home in italy   refurbish house   eco house
 
This project of an existing property was in need of major refurbishment.The foundations were underpinned, the walls and roof space were insulated, new double glazed windows were installed, the large portico constructed and the external walls rendered and painted. Inside the house the heating system was upgraded, integrating gas and a log burning stove to a hot water accumulator which will also be connected to solar panels at a later date.
The ground floor,originally a garage was converted into a lounge/diner and kitchen, space under the balcony was converted to a downstairs loo.The first floor converted into three bedrooms, an en suite and family bathroom.
  As featured on the homepage, this new build home was designed and constructed under the management of CasaVerde to a very high standard making good use of solar heating and insulation.
Most of the materials were sourced locally, some were bought in from Sweden to enable a high standard of efficiency.
