Mr and Mrs Green, the Self Builders, visit their plot

in anticipation for their new timber frame house.

Timber frame is currently the most popular construction method,

delivering faster construction times and an effortless way to achieve Levels 3

to 6 of the Code for Sustainable Homes. By using timber within the fabric of a

building you can reduce energy consumption through improved thermal

performance, air tightness and better insulation. By using timber frame you can

achieve a greater return on investment, whilst increasing your home’s appeal

to design and environmentally conscious buyers in the future. Think Fabric First.
