Progress Update - Keepers Cottage

A significant milestone achieved at Keepers Cottage as SIPs begins installation

A major construction milestone has been reached at Keepers Cottage with the delivery and installation of Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) on site.

Chosen for their precision, speed, and performance, SIPs are engineered and manufactured off-site to exact specifications. This approach ensures consistent detailing, a structurally certified system, and a highly airtight building envelope.

Once groundworks were completed, the SIP structure was erected in just 3–4 weeks, including the roof, creating a fully weather-tight shell ready for external cladding and internal fit-out.

Benefits of SIP construction at Keepers Cottage include:

  • Fast and efficient construction programme

  • High thermal performance and airtightness

  • Consistent build quality and detailing

  • Reduced waste and minimal on-site disruption

The use of SIPs supports long-term energy efficiency, low air permeability, and a durable, high-performance building designed to last.
