Tregunter Road

This project consisted of a new, high-end, three-story residential property (plus an additional two-story basement). The property has a swimming pool, sauna, billiards room, and home cinema. The project utilizes an existing site located on Tregunter Road by maximizing the building area through the careful and considered use of multiple basement levels not to affect the property near the surrounding buildings.

Elementa Consulting provided a complete detailed design for all mechanical, electrical, public health, and below-ground drainage services. A complex below-ground drainage system was designed to collect foul water, which would be pumped back out to the existing outfall level.

Another complex issue Elementa Consulting resolved was the rainwater collection and distribution. Planning permission permitted that the collection and distribution of rainwater could not exceed the allowance previously in place at the property before the basement components were built underneath the existing garden (which would have previously collected a large percentage of rainwater due to the depth of soil). To address this issue, Elementa Consulting designed a tank that collects the rainwater below ground and distributes it back to the public.
