Their Challenge

The client sought to transform a 1920s seaside property in Whitley Bay through a high-quality extension and full refurbishment, all within an ambitious programme. The works required careful planning to enhance the existing structure while maintaining build quality, managing site logistics in a residential coastal setting, and meeting a tight deadline.

Our Solution

Applebridge Building Services adopted a proactive and collaborative approach from the outset. By working closely with a trusted local supply chain, we ensured materials and trades were available when needed, minimising delays. We maintained a strong on-site presence with sufficient labour resource to keep the programme on track, while providing clear and consistent communication to the client throughout.

During the project, the client requested additional redecoration works across the entire property. Our team responded flexibly, integrating these works seamlessly into the programme without compromising delivery timescales. Careful coordination and programme management allowed us to absorb the increased scope efficiently.

Scope of Works

• Large rear extension
• Underpinning works
• Internal remodelling
• Full fit-out

The Results

Applebridge Building Services successfully accelerated the programme and delivered the project ahead of the client’s ambitious deadline, despite the inclusion of additional, uncontracted works. The completed property achieved a high-quality finish, aligning with the client’s vision for a modernised yet characterful home.

The client was highly satisfied with both the outcome and the delivery process, leading to strong word-of-mouth recommendations. This directly resulted in further works with neighbouring occupiers, demonstrating both the quality of our workmanship and our reputation for reliable delivery.
