From Top to Bottom
»»When builder Colin
Clarkson visited his local Eurocell branch
in Wakefield to get a price on some roof
tiles he did not expect to end up renovating
his new home from top to bottom in
products from one single source. Yet now
his upgraded bungalow in the Stanley
district features Eurocell-sourced products
throughout: from the Tapco composite
tiles on the roof and garage he was initially
after; to Skypod skylights, Dales Collection
composite doors, PVCu windows – and
even the rainwater goods.
The building itself was an early 1960s
two-bedroom brick and block bungalow
with a conservatory extension that had been
owned by the same family since 1968 and
was in a state of disrepair. Colin saw its
potential and bought it to convert into a
three-bedroom home with pitched dormers
and a Skypod-roofed extension that
matched the best of contemporary design
and living standard
