The timber frame industry itself believes it can make a significant contribution to sustainable construction for sustainable communities. Wood is the only renewable commercial building material and as a modern method of construction is effectively carbon neutral. As such, when you use timber structures you are actively helping to reduce the effects of global warming. Timber frame construction is further enhanced by its low embodied energy and excellent insulation properties, which means happy customers with lower heating bills and a brighter future for the planet. On average, timber frame is 30% faster than traditional methods and it allows you greater freedom in choosing the finished form of your home. Also, it is fully recognized by all financial institutions and building societies.
