Anaid Construction Ltd is a specialist in building work and landscaping, and a key service area for our company is the Hampshire town of Aldershot. We can assist you with a wide range of services related to construction including loft extensions, garage extensions and home renovations, and we also lay garden patios and driveways to form a hardscape for your property.
On this page, we tackle some of the more frequent questions received from clients in Aldershot, and from those in the surrounding areas:
It may seem obvious, but what does building work cover?
This is a great question and one that we believe should offer enough clarity to make an informed decision about using our services. Building work is a formal term for referring to the assembly, construction and maintenance of property. It typically focuses on the design and build of homes, extensions, conversions and similar features, but can also include property renovation, refurbishment, maintenance and repairs. These are all areas in which we can assist you.
You can book in for building work in Aldershot by calling us today and letting us know what you would like to do to improve your home.
Are there any major benefits to professional landscaping services?
Definitely! We primarily specialise in hard landscaping but will also tend to the softscape if required. An attractive landscape affords more curb appeal to a property and some installations, such as patios and driveways, also improve function and this can increase the resale value of an Aldershot property. It is beneficial to invest into professional landscaping services if you need us to create permanent features in a garden or change a current outdoor design.
Even if the weather is against us, this is a service that we can provide across all four seasons to keep landscaping elements in an excellent condition.
How do loft extensions benefit a property?
If you haven’t already had a loft extended or converted, the likelihood is that the space is currently underused. Loft extensions are a part of the conversion process because some homes have restricted headroom. Extending, or some structural modification, increases the amount of habitable space. You can use the extended loft space in an Aldershot home as an additional bedroom, a home office, a hobby room or whatever else your imagination desires.
Anaid Construction Ltd builds loft extensions in dormer, mansard and hip-to gable styles, and we also specialise in rooflight conversions.
Is it worth sacrificing parking space to have garage extensions built?
Considering more than half of all homeowners in the Aldershot area use their garages for storing clutter and leave their cars parked on the roadside, it is a good idea to revive the space with one of our garage extensions. While it is possible to convert a garage under permitted development, extending the height or the footprint could require planning permission. This isn’t an issue for our company, and we can advise you on making an appropriate submission.
Like loft extensions, garage extensions will provide homes with a purpose-built space that can be used to improve how you live within a property.
Are home renovations likely to be disruptive?
To a degree, but we have a caring and conscientious approach to all forms of renovation and refurbishment work that keeps disruption to a minimum. Keep in mind that renovations in Aldershot will be more extensive than work relating to refurbishments because we may need to make structural changes or remove load-bearing walls, especially if you have design ideas to add an open-plan living space to a property to make conditions feel less cramped.
Our experience in home renovations is a key service benefit and, while work is ongoing, we leave your property clean and tidy at the end of each day.
How can the addition of patios and driveways benefit my home?
Patios and driveways are landscaping features that add form and function to any garden in Aldershot. Patios form a bridge between interiors and exteriors in such a way as to make a garden a social space. Driveways give a home a safe parking spot to reduce the potential for accidental damage, theft and vandalism, and our installations have a strong effect on market resale values.
We lay patios and driveways in a choice of materials to include block paving, concrete flagstones, gravel and a selection of high-end natural stones.
