Mike Brook inherited a plot of land left by his grandparents and decided to build a 4/5 bedroom timber frame property on behalf of his parents and is ‘extremely happy’ with the results.

“I had been thinking about building on the land for about four years and then twelve months ago, decided to take the plunge. I wanted to build a practical house that would fit in with the surrounding area, but also wanted to make the property look a little bit interesting.”

“Knowing I would need help, I contacted an architect to deal with the design and draw up plans. He interpreted my views really well and I now own a beautifully constructed Green Oak Timber Frame property, set in a lovely location.”

“As my parents and I were based in Shropshire, we left the day-to-day running and management of the build to a local builder. I am a big fan of warm water underfloor heating so integrating it into the build process was always on the agenda. It was just a case of finding the right company, product, design and price.”

“I had seen Nu-Heat’s adverts in local building magazines and attended a homebuilding show where they were exhibiting. I spoke to Nu-Heat’s representatives at the show and was immediately struck by their professionalism, high quality product and system design. I placed my order there and then.”

“The build process went without a hitch, including the installation of the underfloor heating. Nu-Heat was available on the phone to field any queries and even went to the effort of visiting the building site during the installation.”

“Nu-Heat were professional and very customer orientated throughout and I will definitely recommend them to family, friends and colleagues.”

“We are now the proud owners of a quality built 4/5 bedroom property and look forward to saying goodbye to slippers!”
