Quality and Durability

Using a factory-produced product, in a quality-controlled environment, reduces much of the on-site build process, which means significantly less defects during and after the build.

Timber frame is recognised as the world's largest house building method, and has stood the test of time.

Modern timber frame buildings are specifically engineered to ensure the quality of construction – in both the factory and on site – is geared towards providing a durable solution. This is supported by the UK's top ten mortgage lenders, who all consider timber frame construction a conventional build method.

Timber frame products meet government policy, valid since 2003, of adopting Sir John Egan's recommendations to provide programme predictability, whilst maintaining a healthy and safe working environment.
