NU Projects is a design and build company in Fulham SW6, founded in 2010. We handle basement golf simulator rooms in South West London SW, under one contract. A new basement dig typically runs £500k to £900k. Converting an existing basement runs £180k to £300k. Call 020 7731 6841, and a budget estimate typically follows within seven days.
A golf simulator is the tallest room most basements ever hold. Makers advise about 3.0 m of clear height. Some accept 2.85 m as a bare minimum.
Kensington and Chelsea and Westminster both allow one basement storey. So the swing height must be won inside it. We set the slab and ceiling levels before excavation.
The bay also needs width and depth. The golfer stands clear of the walls, with the screen well ahead. Lighting is set so it never glares on the screen.
A golf room often sits beside a cinema or a gym. We plan the whole floor together, so no room steals height from another.
