Castledurrow, Co Laois
Website: www.castledurrow.com
Located midway between Dublin and Cork in Durrow and renovated tastefully over the last couple of years by Peter and Shelly Stokes, this cut stone mansion is now a very popular venue for wedding parties and locals alike. It extends to over 36,000 square feet (at last count!).
Most of the floors were lifted to get at the joists for treatment, and at that stage Peter decided to go for "invisible heating" wherever possible; most of the building is now heated using our floor heating, wherever we couldn't get that in, Unipipe was used for radiator circuits. In fact all the heating mains and plumbing were done using Unipipe's press fittings and pipes so avoiding welding and heavy steel pipework throughout the whole structure.
