DO YOU NEED MORE LIVING SPACE?

BY KEITH CHANDLER

I have over thirty years experience designing domestic extensions and loft conversions to make your house work better. I am an Architectural Designer, Chartered Surveyor, & Structural Engineer, this combination of professions enables me to provide you with a one stop shop for all your needs and prevents that all too often event where architects and structural engineers have different views on feasibility.

Until last December I lived and worked around South East London and whilst my wife Jo and I enjoyed it we knew that one day we would move to the coast and explore the South Downs, events of 2023 cleared the path and in December we moved to Tangmere. Now all I need to do is move the geographical focus of my work to match, so if you are considering a:

Loft Conversion

Probably the most economical way of extending to provide bedrooms and bathrooms. They always require Building Regulations Consent and sometimes Town Planning Permission. Due to their nature they always require structural calculations.

Side Extensions

Single or two storey extensions to match the house providing additional bedrooms, bathrooms and increased ground floor living space.

Single Storey Rear Extensions

Mostly for larger kitchens and open plan living/dining areas, usually with large expanses of glass both on the rear elevation and as roof lights with beams for rear wall removal. Have a look at my website www.keithchandler.co.uk and call me for a no obligation, preliminary chat –I look forward to hearing from you.

‘Experimental Test Pilot’

Presented by Chris Taylor

BOXGROVE VILLAGE HALL, THE STREET, BOXGROVE PO18 0EE

Chris Taylor joined the Royal Navy and since has flown over 400 types of fixed wing aircraft and helicopters and is also an established author. After gaining a degree in Electrical Engineering he became a Navigation Officer serving on numerous ships and went onto operating Wasp and Lynx helicopters.

Chris became an Experimental Test Pilot who flew all manner of experimental aircraft for research and development purposes before joining the Empire Test Pilots’ School as a Flight Test instructor. He is a licensed Category 1 Test Pilot and Flight Test instructor for both aeroplanes and helicopters, which arguably makes him one of the best qualified and most widely experienced test pilots working today.

In this talk, Chris discusses some of the more challenging aspects of his time as a flight test instructor as well as his work on a number of cutting-edge research projects whilst with the Experimental Flying Squadron.
