Extension in Stourbridge with White UPVC Windows
Creating space for a family Christmas in Stourbridge
When Mr and Mrs Reed received news over the summer that their family from Australia would be staying with them over Christmas, they faced an immediate space crisis. Panic set in over how to seat and accommodate everyone comfortably for Christmas dinner. While a traditional brick-and-mortar extension seemed like the obvious answer, the prospect of months of disruption, heavy excavations, and builders on-site made it an undesirable option.
They started searching for a fast-track, high-quality solution. After a lot of head scratches and Google searches they discovered hup! by Ultraframe and visited the 5 Star Kidderminster showroom to see it for themselves.
The Challenge
- Strict Time Limits: High-pressure deadline to have a fully functional space built, insulated, and styled before the festive period.
- Avoidance of Construction Upheaval: Total reluctance to endure conventional building schedules, deep foundation digging, wet trades, and extended messy site work.
- Design Requirements: The extension needed to seamlessly integrate with the existing property, transform the ground-floor flow, and accommodate large family gatherings.
The Solution & Showroom Experience
Upon visiting the 5 Star showroom, Mr and Mrs Reed explored various traditional conservatories and orangeries searching for the hup! display. Expecting a lightweight or obvious modular structure, they were surprised when the receptionist pointed directly behind them.
What they had assumed was a full brick-and-mortar build was actually the hup! system, with the 5 Star showroom display featuring:
- A grand vaulted ceiling creating an airy, light-filled room.
- High-performance glass bifolding doors linking indoor and outdoor spaces.
- Structural wall panels offering five times the energy efficiency of standard brickwork.
After consulting with a 5 Star designer, they learned that hup! extensions are pre-manufactured offsite, minimising mess and disruption. The revolutionary hup! extension technology can also be built in any weather, saving weeks of build time, reducing delays, and allowing the main structure to be built in just a few days.
On budget
When 5 Star finalised the contract for this hup! installation and agreed the price, the Reeds had some concern that the nightmare builders scenario that once the project started, unforeseen increases would be presented to them. This nightmare scenario didn’t happen. 5 Star carry out meticulous pre-contract checks to ensure that the final contract price is the final contract price with no nasty surprises.
Results & Impact
- Seamless Project Delivery: 5 Star completed the installation fast and without delay, well ahead of the holiday deadline.
- Transformed Living Space: The new room opened up the ground floor, optimising the layout for entertaining while improving energy efficiency.
- End Result: A stunning, premium extension delivered on time, enabling the Reeds to host Christmas dinner for their visiting Australian family without stress or long-term upheaval.
