Why Choose Us?
Our Sustainable Approach
Sustainable Material Sourcing
We prioritize the use of sustainably
harvested trees, ensuring that our materials come from responsibly managed forests. This commitment helps preserve natural habitats and supports reforestation efforts.
Energy-Efficient Designs
By combining traditional and modern timber framing techniques, we create structures that are inherently energy-efficient. Our designs promote natural ventilation and insulation, reducing reliance on artificial heating and cooling systems.
Waste Reduction
Our efficient construction methods minimize waste. We carefully plan each project to utilize materials effectively, and we recycle or repurpose any leftover wood, reducing our environmental footprint.
Timber Framing
Traditional Timber Framing Techniques
Our expertise in traditional timber framing allows us to create structures
that are not only strong but also rich in character. Key techniques include:
Post and Beam Construction
This classic method uses vertical posts and horizontal beams to create a robust framework. It allows for open floor plans and large, airy spaces, making it ideal for both residential and commercial projects.
Timber Frame Joinery
We utilize traditional joinery techniques, such as mortise and tenon, which connect wooden elements without the need for metal fasteners. This method enhances the durability and aesthetic appeal of our structures.
Timber Framing
Modern Timber Framing Innovations
innovations that enhance functionality and sustainability:
Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT):
This engineered wood product is made by stacking layers of timber in alternating directions, creating a strong and stable material. CLT is not only sustainable but also allows for faster construction times and reduced waste.
Prefabrication Techniques
We embrace modern prefabrication methods, which allow us to construct components off-site. This approach minimizes on-site waste and reduces construction time, leading to a more efficient building process.
