What they asked for
The basement needed its own way in: a side entrance cut into the brick wall, without touching the rest of the house.
What we built
We dug down to the footing, marked and cut the opening through the brick and foundation, set a steel lintel over it, then fitted a white steel door, foamed and sealed all round.
How it went
Excavation and cutting first, the lintel and door after — the house stayed closed up and weathertight throughout.
“A door where there was only brick.”
