Apprentice of the Year Challenge! Our 3rd year Apprentice, Chris, was courageous enough to give the regional Apprentice Challenge a go this year and spent last Saturday knuckling down to creating a picnic table over the course of the day against 12 other competitors. 🔨
Pretty much the entire Chatterton Homes team came down to support him throughout the day and hopefully he inspired some of our younger apprentices to give it a go next year.
Unfortunately there can only be one winner and it wasn't Chris this time, but a great experience for him, and inspiration for others 🤩.
A flat SIPs roof being installed by our team last week at our Amberley show home. All done in a matter of hours. Trusses will be placed above the SIPs, and access to the roof space for storage will be through the garage ceiling which is outside of the airtight and thermal envelope.
For more details on this home take a look at our 'Fernside Plan' in our High Performance Plan Range.

Drone footage given to us from the homeowner of this Diamond Harbour home illustrates the versatility of SIPs panels. Structurally, they can span large areas of sloping ceilings and can be easily combined with flat ceilings in the design. Trusses will be added to the flat ceiling to create the more traditional roof line.

📣!!! BIG NEWS !!!📣
Chatterton Builders has, from today, renamed itself Chatterton Homes.
Same people. Same values. Same high performance homes.
Just better messaging and better reflection of our core business of designing and building homes.
It also connects nicely with the introduction of our high performance plan range. 👏🎉
It will take some time for our branding to transition fully so please be aware that it is the same company, and whether you search or contact Chatterton Builders or Chatterton Homes - you will still be redirected to the correct place, and we will still get your message.

Two weeks ago we were able to take the entire team through the Formance factory - after a hearty breakfast catch up 🥐☕. This is where the panels are manufactured and quality tested prior to coming to us for pre-assembly and install.
Did you know that every panel is strength tested before it leaves the factory?
It is useful for everyone to understand the origins and the journey before coming to us. Thanks to Formance for taking the time to show all 17 of us around 🎉👏.

Roof SIP panels installed at our Diamond Harbour site (yes the same day as another team were installing wall panels at Amberley - phew!).
This house has 265mm skillion roof to the living area (the larger panels can span large distances) and the back of the house has flat 165mm panels with a truss ceiling and additional batts insulation laid on top.
I think this team won out on the weather!

The structural insulated wall panels were being installed today at our Amberley High Performance Show Home.
The two windows visible look into the living and dining areas (french doors will open out from the kitchen in the centre). This afternoon it will be possible to walk around the house as all the walls will be up. Next week the roof goes on so we can really get a feel for the place.

Monday`s Meet The Team! Andy Walton.
Andy has been with us a few years after retraining and qualifying as a carpenter after 25 years in sales and retail. He enjoys the work and the satisfaction, wishing he had made that change earlier.
A family man, Andy loves spending time with his family and hanging out with his grand children. His lifestyle block also keeps him busy but when he gets time the outdoor theme continues and he loves to hunt, fish and mountain bike.

SIPs Floor.
This timber pile foundation high performance home in Diamond Harbour is having a SIPs floor installed. A continuous thermal and airtight layer with minimal thermal bridging is achieved. The bracing, strength and durability of these panels make them an excellent choice for this sloping site.
