Timber
Frame Houses & Extension Kits
Why choose
our timber frame kit from Finland?
Recognised as faster build time when
compared with traditional block builds thereby saving labour expenses.
Timber frame has 30 percent shorter, and
more predictable construction time than brick or block.
The use of sustainable material on our
timber frames.
Not so weather dependent. No running
cement!
Various House kits options available
The timber frame package can include internal doors, external
doors
and windows and staircases, produced to a very
high
standard in Finland.
These come factory double glazed and finished in
lacquer so no further labour intensive decoration is needed. The
design is of Scandinavian appearance. The timber frame house
kit is manufactured
in Finland and produced from high quality Finnish Redwood grown from
sustainable Finland forests.
The standard wall frame of the timber frame
is constructed from
45 x 195 mm and is normally the same for the sole plate, studs
and top plates. Obviously the timbers for the roof construction will
vary dependent on the spans required. These can be trusses or 'cut',
dependent on design. This also applies to the intermediate floor joists.
All fixings are supplied either in
high quality zinc coated or stainless steel
The short
erection time in the timber frame work allows for early covering in
membranes
such as tyvex or similar breathable and vapour barriers, so allowing
other services to get underway without delay.
The external finishing can be created to
compliment the local environment. E.g. stone, brick or render or even
clad in timber to enhance the beauty of the timber frame construction.
Insulation is specified to meet the building regulations and improve on
energy efficiency. If desired, the post and beam construction can allow
you to create the open roof structure that increases the spatial effect.
The complete package will include Lappiporras stairs.
Manufactured in Finland.
