Why Timber Frame?
Timber Frame Benefits
Timber Frame has many benefits over other forms of construction. Most notably the speed of construction, an order can be placed and fulfilled whilst the site is being cleared, the groundwork’s under way, therefore, allowing a seamless transition from factory to site. This can save time on site, typically a third of the overall build programme versus masonry. Quite often a standard 4 bedroom family home can be erected within 2 weeks.
Strong But Lightweight
Timber is a strong but lightweight construction, this results in far less reliance on expensive mechanical lifting and less loading on the foundation allowing for cost efficient foundation design.
Fixed Price Packages
Our packages are fixed at our quotation stage and valid for 60 days. This allows clients to budget more effectively knowing that a large part of the project is catered for and costed without last minute extras.
Sustainable
Our raw timber materials are sourced from well-managed, sustainable forests and have lower embodied carbon than other composite materials.
Quality
Our frames are made by people and not robots. Our stringent quality control procedures ensure that every panel is checked and build to the tightest tolerances.
