Traditional building methods and modern materials combine seamlessly in the creation of this stunning bespoke family home, on Suffolk’s heritage coast. 

The existing house has undergone extensive structural repairs and painstaking, sympathetic restoration works, to provide comfortable reception rooms, bathrooms and bedrooms.   A substantial, two storey, rear extension has created an exceptional family kitchen and dining area, along with additional sleeping accommodation to the first floor.

The home is finished to an extraordinarily high standard, using top specification components and fixtures, installed by skilled craftsmen.

”Mixbrow did a brilliant job. Excellent attention to detail and quality; and went out of their way to be helpful and finish the project on time.”

Work is progressing rapidly on the construction of a new storage and distribution building for TROX UK in Thetford.  184 pre-cast concrete floor slabs, each weighing up to 2.5 tonnes, have been craned into position, to form part of the 1860 square metre warehouse floor and ceiling of the 44 bay under-croft car park.  300 cubic metres of concrete have also been poured, to create the remaining warehouse floor section.

The steel framed warehouse structure, fabricated and erected by Nimmo Industrial Buildings of Kings Lynn, is nearing completion, with roofing and cladding works set to commence.

Working in partnership with Rees Pryer Architects of Bury St Edmunds, Superstructures Structural Engineers of Ipswich and Attleborough based BHA Consulting Civil Engineers, Mixbrow Construction is delivering a facility that maximises utilisation of the limited site space.

The project is on target for completion early 2019

Utilising bold design concepts and high-quality components, Mixbrow Construction has transformed a drab, functional office area into a vibrant and stimulating work space.

100 staff members are comfortably accommodated within the open-plan office. A state-of-the-art, touch screen, electronic booking system controls the scheduling and use of the formal meeting room.

Pool tables, sports memorabilia and a “FIFA Zone” help staff to unwind during rest periods. A coffee shop style refreshments area provides further opportunities to relax.

In keeping with the company’s plan for sustainable growth and continual improvement, Mixbrow Construction are delighted to welcome three new members to its management team:

• Mark Farrow joins us in the role of Estimator / Surveyor.  Mark’s breadth of experience, having worked within local authority, social housing and main contracting environments, adds a new dimension to our team.
• Ralph Rachael joins us in the role of Site Manager, utilising his extensive experience and knowledge to manage the alteration and refurbishment element of a new social housing scheme in Bury St Edmunds.
• Mark Mann joins us in the role of Maintenance & Small Works Project Manager.  Mark’s affable nature complements his efficient and very capable approach to the role, further strengthening our dynamic small works team.

These exciting appointments significantly enhance Mixbrow Construction’s capabilities and help us to achieve our vision of being a leader in construction and the benchmark against which our competitors are measured.

Work is progressing well on a new social housing scheme in Cauldwell Hall Road, Ipswich.  The project, undertaken on behalf of Ipswich Borough Council, will provide seventeen much needed, affordable homes for the local community and is scheduled for completion in November 2019.

A project to build 36 new affordable and shared ownership apartments, on a disused site in Bury St Edmunds is making excellent progress.  The development, on behalf of Havebury Housing Partnership, is situated on a former nightclub and snooker hall site, on Tayfen Road.

Demolition, piling and foundation works have already been completed and the construction of the external masonry envelope has commenced.  Completion is scheduled for July 2019.
