Ayloffs Walk, Emerson Park – before and after

At Multi Building Services we enjoy breathing new life into an old building. Whether it is a total makeover for an out-dated family home, or the complete rebuild of an abandoned building, renovation projects give you the chance to exploit our building skills and design creativity. See Testimonials page on the Federation of Master Builders website.

Renovating and Rebuilding

From a purely technical perspective, a building is a collection of its component parts. Floors, ceilings, walls and a roof. No matter what the building is it has to sit on firm foundations. Buildings need drainage and power, water and access. They must be warm, draught-proof, damp-proof and weatherproof. Beyond that, every property should be built to last and they must be fit for purpose.

In reality of course, a building is far more than a collection of parts. Multi Building Services we will work with you every step of the way to develop your house into the home of your aspirations.

Building Renovation and Innovation

Apple Cottage, Willows Green – before and after

At Multi Building Services Ltd we have our finger on the technological pulse. Whether it is state of the art lighting, energy efficient heating or designer kitchens, we can bring all of these into your renovation, as part of the plan and design process.

Air Source Heat Pumps

One example of innovation in design is in the installation of Air Source Heat Pumps in new build and renovation projects. Air Source Heat Pumps are a heat exchange system that work in a similar way to

Apple Cottag, Willows Green – before and afterdomestic refrigeration units – but in reverse. An ingenious system of condensers and compressors up-rates latent heat from the surrounding environment and brings it into the home. Air Source Heat Pumps can generate up to four times as much energy as they use, reducing energy bills, giving substantial savings, and improving your home’s carbon footprint.
