starting extension on site in toome

We’re just about to commence on site with our Extension & Renovation project near Toome.
Our brief was to include extra living space to make use of the existing mature garden to the rear, along with providing extra bedroom and bathroom space.
All this as well as a double garage with office space to the first floor accessible via external steps.
All this was done in accordance with the new building regulations (2012) with extra insulation to help the thermal values.

Ballymena Borough Chamber of Commerce and Industry held a welcome meeting for new members in the Adair Arms last week.
In the last few months Chamber has recruited 14 new members.
Chamber President Thomas McKillen welcomed the new members, saying: “It is great to see so many new members here this morning. New members are the lifeblood of any organisation.
“There is a wealth of experience and knowledge in this Chamber and I hope you find membership to be both enjoyable and beneficial.”
The new members then introduced themselves and Thomas presented them with their membership certificates.

Bank holiday monday!!

so it's bank holiday monday & what have i done....rest!!! no...golf!!! i wish
nope i was down at the office giving it a well needed spring clean.
slemish design studio - architects have been in our office on the woodside road, ballymena for nearly a year now...so it's about time we had a clear out.
we want our office to portray who we are...therefore as architects we want it looking smart & clean.
By the end of June we'll have our much needed ceiling & the walls painted...along with some office touches like prints & images of the various architectural projects we've been involved in throughout northern ireland.
It's now 23:38pm & I'm still scheming....we've been having an update of our website too, so again i've been trying to understand SEO!!!!!
this is impossible to learn :/
hopefully our website man gareth will be able to sort it.
I'm also in the middle of doing a 3D of our barn conversion in Dromara, County Down.
Hopefully should have it finished this week amongst all the other work...a few late nights will be required!!!
