Some things look much easier on a drawing than the Some things look much easier on a drawing than they are to build! 😂

This week at Yetminster, we’ve been tackling one of those jobs that requires a bit more thought than you might expect — installing the MVHR (Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery) system.

The principle is simple: extract stale, moist air from the house, recover much of its heat, and use that energy to help warm the fresh, filtered air coming in.

The reality of squeezing all that ductwork into the available spaces? Not quite so simple! 😅

It’s one of those important details that will largely disappear once the house is finished, but will make a real difference to comfort, ventilation and energy efficiency for years to come.

Meanwhile, the roof covering is progressing, the rooflights are in, more doors have been fitted and the stonework is taking shape.

Plenty happening, even if some of the most important work isn’t always the most obvious!

It’s amazing how much changes in a week! 👀🏡 Anoth It’s amazing how much changes in a week! 👀🏡

Another big step forward at Petty’s Farm — and this week, it’s really starting to feel like a home.

✅ Roof fully felted and battened in just one day
✅ Annexe brickwork up to DPC level
✅ Garage damp-proofed and concreted
✅ MVHR equipment finally delivered
✅ All windows and doors installed!

It’s not always plain sailing. Deliveries get delayed, the weather has other ideas, and the clocks going back certainly aren’t doing our daylight hours any favours! 😅

But there’s something particularly satisfying about seeing all those empty openings finally filled.

And now the glazing is in, we can get started on the stonework above DPC — which is when the exterior will really begin to develop its character.

Here’s a question for you: what makes the biggest difference to how a new house looks — the windows and doors, or the exterior finishes? 👇

Ten years ago, I made the decision to change the w Ten years ago, I made the decision to change the way we build houses. Weeks like this remind me why.

When the British weather does its worst, keeping a building project moving can be a challenge. And this week certainly tested us!

One of the biggest advantages of building with structural insulated panels (SIPs) isn’t simply the speed of construction. It’s what that speed allows us to do next.

Getting the structure protected early means we can bring materials inside, get the carpenters working and make progress on the internal fit-out while the weather has other ideas.

Of course, there’s still plenty of traditional craftsmanship involved. The stonework, roof detailing and all those less glamorous but essential waterproofing details are just as important.

For me, it’s about combining modern methods of construction with the skills and attention to detail that go into building a quality home.

Different methods, same commitment to getting it right.

And judging by this week’s weather, I’m rather glad we made that decision!

Ever wondered what happens underneath a timber frame once it’s been erected?

Probably not! 😂 But this is one of those small construction details that deserves a bit more attention.

When a SIPs frame is erected, shims and packers are used to get everything perfectly level. But what about the gaps left beneath the sole plates?

That’s where non-shrink grout comes in.

In this reel, we’re taking you through the process, from preparing and sealing the sole plates to grouting beneath them and finishing the job.

And no, ordinary sand and cement won’t do! 👀

It’s not the most glamorous part of building a house, but getting these details right is all part of building properly.

Small details. Big difference. 🏡

Progress doesn’t happen by standing still. 🏡 Ever Progress doesn’t happen by standing still. 🏡

Every stage of a build brings its own challenges, but it’s seeing everything come together that makes the hard work worthwhile.

From the structural shell to the finer details, every step takes us closer to turning a set of drawings into a finished home.

At Pearce Properties, we’re passionate about what we build, how we build it, and the quality we leave behind.

You can always better your best. 💚

Four cranes later… and the SIPs structure is compl Four cranes later… and the SIPs structure is complete.

After a yellow crane, a red crane, a yellow crane and a blue crane, we’ve now reached a major milestone at Petties Farm with the main SIPs structure fully completed.

This week has seen the remaining gables go up, the main glulam roof beams lifted into position and the large SIPs roof panels craned into place.

We’ve been building with Structural Insulated Panels for around ten years now, and this is one of the reasons we like working with them so much — structure and insulation in one, with the building changing incredibly quickly once the roof panels start going on.

One minute you’re standing upstairs looking straight up at the sky, and the next there’s a roof over your head and you can finally get a real feel for how the spaces are going to work.

At the same time, work has started on the second building, with the bricklayers getting underway on the annexe, while the Forest Marble stone will help bring the more traditional Dorset character to the finished buildings.

A really satisfying week on site and a big step forward for the project.

Now onto the next stage.

New week, new crane… and this one’s actually earni New week, new crane… and this one’s actually earning its keep! 🏗️😂

It’s been another busy week at Petties Farm, and things are really starting to take shape!

From a seriously complicated first-floor joist layout (complete with around 190 hangers!) to getting the decking finished and assembling some absolutely enormous SIPs roof panels, there’s been plenty going on.

And we’re only just getting started with the exciting bit…

Next week, the upper walls and roof panels start going up, and the building is about to look very different! 👀

Follow along as we bring this project to life, one week at a time.

We thought we’d put it to the test at Serenity View, Stalbridge.

A day late waiting for the steel, followed by the crane deciding it had done enough for the week.

Thankfully, before everything ground to a halt, we’d already made good progress erecting the full SIPs package on our latest client build.

Walls, roof and rooms within the roof all formed in SIPs — plenty more to show as this one takes shape.

Two and a half months since our last post. We’re back. The crane, currently, isn’t.
Progress is moving at pace at our Stalbridge bunga Progress is moving at pace at our Stalbridge bungalow, and it’s amazing how quickly a project starts to feel like a home.

The external stonework is now complete, the blockwork is nearly ready for render, and the garage is beginning to take shape. Inside, all of the studwork is finished, every room has been plasterboarded, and we’re now ready for the plasterers to transform the interior next week.

In this update, we’re taking you on a full walkthrough so you can see how the layout is coming together—from the spacious kitchen and dining area to the bedrooms, en-suites and the features that make this home stand out.

A well-planned build isn’t just about creating attractive spaces—it’s about getting the details right at every stage. The quality of the finished home is decided long before the paint goes on.

We hope you enjoy the tour, and if you’re following the journey, let us know which room is your favourite.

Have a fantastic (and hopefully not too hot!) weekend! ☀️

A glimpse inside our latest Stalbridge bungalow… ✨ A glimpse inside our latest Stalbridge bungalow… ✨

This elegant CGI showcases a beautifully designed kitchen that will form the heart of the home. A striking central island with wraparound seating creates the perfect space for cooking, entertaining and everyday living.

Finished with linen-coloured cabinetry, quartz worktops, integrated fridge freezers, ovens, dishwasher, a ceramic sink with feature tap, and an induction hob with built-in extraction, every detail has been carefully considered. Oak flooring and MVHR ventilation complete a space that’s as practical as it is stylish.

Beyond the kitchen, large bi-fold doors (not shown in this image) will open onto the rear terrace and garden, making the most of the beautiful outlook and filling the home with natural light.

We believe this will be Stalbridge’s most desirable new bungalow, combining thoughtful design with exceptional quality throughout.

Stalbridge site update 🏡 Plenty of progress to re Stalbridge site update 🏡

Plenty of progress to report despite the recent heat. The Marnhull stonework is taking shape externally, while inside the carpentry team have really got into gear with ceilings boarded and stud walls going up throughout.

The room layouts and scale of the house are now becoming clear, with first-fix plumbing also underway.

A big thank you to everyone working through the challenging conditions over the last few days. It’s been tough going, but the progress speaks for itself.

Stay tuned for more updates.

A closer look at the progress being made on our St A closer look at the progress being made on our Stalbridge project.

From the completed slate roof with integrated solar panels to the newly installed external doors, the building is becoming increasingly weather-tight. Inside, the floor insulation and underfloor heating are now in place, creating the foundations for a highly efficient and comfortable home.

It’s always rewarding to see a project move from structure to specification, with each stage bringing the finished vision closer to reality.

Was it a tool? A punishment device for labourers? Or did Bradfords briefly launch a bondage range? 😂

You don’t often get staircase designs like this… You don’t often get staircase designs like this…

A true centrepiece to the home — this gallery staircase combines oak, glass, and soft carpeted runs, designed to completely transform the entrance space.

Oak treads feature at the base, before the staircase flows upwards and splits in two directions, opening onto a generous gallery landing above. Frameless glass keeps everything open, allowing light to travel right through the heart of the hallway.

And it’s the light that makes it work — a large front screen floods the entrance, pulling your eye straight to the staircase the moment you walk in.

It’s one of those features that defines the entire home.

A real statement piece, and a privilege to build.
