    Looks well.

    I too have just got new premises and in the process of shaping them to suit our needs.

    Have you put ceilings on the office space you have built?? I too have to add an extra office area and intended putting a roof on it just to try and keep the Versacamm cleaner. Is it really necessary do you think??

    I wish you luck with your move.

    Cheers

    what a great workspace Roy! 😀 I’m jealous ….. I’m in a wee office overlooking an MOT station floor and a cold workroom next door for fitting! But it’s good all the same.

    I wish you good luck in your new place ………. it looks brilliant! 😉

    hey gary,
    i didnt put a ceiling in the office are as i will be using it to do most of my work, i thought it was a bit more handy if i needed to shout to steve in the shop area.. i did however tint the windows and do think this is a good idea for privacy..

    thanks for all the comments guys, workspaces are funny things and i do remember when i started i had a room 5m sq to work in, it was small but i still managed !!!!

    I know what you mean about workspace being funny things. I bought this business back in 2003 and ran it from our small bedroom which was 7ft x 7ft but in all honesty it was mainly internet based or very small stuff. As things have progressed I then went into 380sqft to 950sqft and we just got the keys on Tuesday for 2350sqft which hopefully will give us a home for a while now.

    I just need to reduce the size of the workshop by adding a print room and reception area but getting it right might prove a tad more difficult.

    I will post some pics when I get a minute and welcome any input.

    Cheers

    I missed this one Roy, the place looks great mate… well done!
    only thing i would suggest is taking the office walls up to the ceiling as it will help heat the offices better. when working out in the workshops we tend to heat up quicker and not feel the cold so much, but sitting at the PC and on the phone we feel it much more.

    anyway, place looks great!
