Building projects
Sustainable building projects using local materials
Garden Rooms
We have recently built this garden room. It has full planning permission and has been passed as fully complient with building regulations.
We were the chosen contractor , not only for being competitively priced, but much of the timber is sustainably sourced from woodlands we manage, including the cladding, roundwood poles and shingles but also as we undertook to carry all materials 50 metres from the nearest access to site. All the cladding, round wood poles and shingles were all sourced from woodlands we manage.
Timber building restoration
We completely reroofed this 70 years old timber building. We added new structural timber in the walls, then removed all the existing rotten roof covering. We relaced all the rafters and purlins and ridge beam and replaced much of the A frame timbers.
We then shingled the roof with Western TRed Cedar shingles.
Glamping lodge
We had to initiallly build a deck 5.7m x 4.2m suspended over the water to take the main structure. The lodge is 3.5m x 3.2m with a veranda 2.2m front to back. It is double skinned, insulated with Alpaca fleece in the walls, under the floor and in the ceiling. It is internally clad with Cedar boards. The roof is made from our own Cedar shingles. The lodge includes folding beds which we supplied. The georgian doors and windows are glazed with toughened glass.
Below are images of one of our latest commissions. Designed by a local architect and built by us. It features peeled Ash spindles, peeled Larch poles and a floor of Larch boards.
Delivered on time and on budget.
Concept drawing
Round wood timber framed barn
I spent a week in Sussex with Ben Law learning the techniques for jointing and helping to construct a round wood timber framed building. We have recently completed this round wood timber framed building at Pontrilas in Herefordshire, which will be used for timber processing and storage.
We supplied a set of plans and drawings which were submitted as part
of the planning permission application. We now have the ability to supply
3d images of potential projects, in addition to technical drawings suitable
for submission with a planning application.
We can also supply a engineering report detailing calculations of loadings
etc.
