What are the benefits of building with timber?
Not only is timber a renewable resource, it is also a strong and safe building material. Contrary to popular misconception, timber performs very well in a fire and unlike other construction materials, does not bend or flake at high temperatures. Timber naturally has excellent insulation properties for both heat and sound which ensures greater warmth and privacy in the home. Timber framed buildings also qualify for mortgages and are often more aesthetically pleasing than their brick built counterparts.
