Timber frames

Get the best quality timber frame structures from Griggs and ensure that your building is safe and durable.

Timber frame technology is a popular choice as it speeds up construction projects. Frames are prefabricated and delivered to site for the physical assembly, which is a much quicker process than a traditional brick and mortar building. This has a direct impact on reducing construction costs. They offer flexibility in terms of interior layouts. Timber frames have the lowest CO2 cost of any building method offering excellent thermal efficiency. All of our timber is purchased from certified sustainable sources meeting FSC and PEFC certification.

Personal Touch

 

The majority of our timber frame orders come from customers who have used us before. Our excellent levels of service and our knowledge really make us stand out. As we also produce timber engineered joist systems and manufacture our own roof trusses and much more, we are able to fit thework around customer projects.

As one of the reasons for using timber frame panels in construction is the speed with which the project can be completed, we concentrate on keeping our delivery period short so that you can utilise this benefit to the full. We strongly believe that deliveries over 16 weeks go against speedy construction. Our timelines are much shorter.

Upon suppling your approved architectural planning drawings, we will be able to give you a specific timeline for the delivery. We offer the complete package: quotation, specification, design, and manufacture, all to the latest codes of practice and all certified to NHBC standards.
