Gable Rear Extension, Hindburn Drive, Worsley

Building the rear extension

This Hindburn Drive project shows the construction of a gable-ended rear extension. The photographs record key stages as the new floor, cavity walls, structural steelwork and pitched roof were formed and connected to the existing house.

Floor structure

Concrete floor beams installed across the prepared extension footprint before the floor build-up and external walls progressed.

Masonry and steelwork

Cavity wall construction formed around the new extension, alongside the structural steel members supporting the opening and roof.

Gable roof

A pitched timber roof with a gable end, rooflight opening and structural steel support creates height and natural light within the new space.
