The major advantages
of timber frame construction are its speed of erection, excellent thermal
efficiency, sound performance and of course its considerable advantages
over traditional building methods where environmental issues are
concerned. Timber frame is design flexible. It allows you great freedom in
choosing the finished form of your home. It is also fully recognised by
all financial institutions and building societies for institutional
lending and by the National House Building Council (NHBC) for guarantee
purposes. Once up and running, the standard insulation incorporated in the
construction of a timber frame house can give thermal performance 27% more
energy efficient than that demanded by Building Regulations. We have a
strict company policy regarding the purchase of timber by the
manufacturers to be utilised in the construction of our kits. They must
provide positive evidence that their timber suppliers operate a policy of
good forest management at source together with a committed on going
programme of replanting to ensure a renewable resource in the future.
