This option is for clients who want a complete external build handled from start to finish.
Your project is run by a Professional Partner Architect and installed by a local Approved Installer — both trained and approved by ecoTrus.
You’ll get a fully built loft shell: structure, roof, exterior finish, windows, and staircase installed, scaffold down, and ready for your chosen interior trades.
