HUP! HOME EXTENSION EXPERT BUILDERS ESSEX

Greg's hup! extension Story

When it comes to getting creative with design, Greg’s got it down to a fine art. Not only was he a key player in developing the innovative hup! system, but he’s also used it to turn his own vision into reality. And what a vision it is!

Greg has designed and built an open-plan living space that’s more than just functional – it’s downright dreamy. Imagine a space where your kitchen, dining area, TV zone, and utility room effortlessly come together, flooded with natural light and styled to perfection. That’s exactly what Greg created using hup!

Greg’s Dream Extension Brought to Life with hup!

Greg and his family moved into their house back when his kids were just little ones, and like so many families do, they soon fell head over heels for the neighbourhood. Over time, though, the house began to feel a bit cramped (you know how chaotic family life can get!). But despite the lack of space, they couldn’t imagine leaving the area.

The house always felt like it was missing something. A utility room for tackling the never-ending laundry pile? Definitely. A big, open-plan space that brought everyone together for lazy weekends and cosy family dinners? Absolutely. They’d dreamt of making it happen for years.

Now, Greg is clearly not one to shy away from a challenge. He decided to kick off a major house transformation smack in the middle of Lancashire’s chilly mid-winter. Oh, and this wasn’t just any winter. He started just six weeks before Christmas.
Friends and family couldn’t quite believe it.

More than a few eyebrows were raised, and yes, Greg got called “mad” more times than he could count. But for him, it wasn’t madness. It was about turning the house into the perfect family haven they’d always dreamed of—even if that meant navigating renovation chaos so close to the festive season.

Stay tuned, because Greg’s bold timing and big ideas turned out to be totally worth it.

Watertight in Just Five Days!

Greg knew exactly what he was getting into when he decided on a hup! build for his 30sqm rear extension project. He was confident it would be watertight within days, and guess what? It only took five! That’s right, in just five days, the main structure was complete, and the space was sealed from the elements. Now that’s what we call rapid progress!

Greg and his family opted for a full-width hup! extension with a sleek, Tiled Roof design. This new addition blends effortlessly into the existing structure, opening up the back of their house to create a truly impressive, sociable space. With two sets of bi-fold doors and floor-to-ceiling glazed roof panels, the bright and airy extension connects perfectly with the garden while flooding the interior with glorious natural light.

Slim Walls, Big Benefits

One of the standout features of using hup! is its clever wall design. The slim walls aren’t just space-savers; they’re game-changers. By opting for hup!, Greg didn’t just gain an open-plan living/dining/kitchen area; he also found room to incorporate a dedicated utility area. And, if you ask Laura Jane Clark, that’s a non-negotiable win! As she puts it, every home deserves a utility room, and we couldn’t agree more.

Less Mess, Less Stress

When it comes to home improvements, nobody wants weeks of chaos and disruption. That’s where hup! really shines. The speed and efficiency of the build meant minimal mess, no unnecessary delays, and barely any disruption to this busy family’s routine. Before they knew it, Greg and his family were settling into their stunning new space, enjoying every square metre of their light, bright, and practical extension.

If you’re ready to transform your home with a sleek, high-quality extension that’s built faster than you thought possible, why not give hup! a go? We promise, you’ll never look back.
