Timber Framed Buildings - Beautiful Buildings For Your Property

Log cabins are a great way to add extra buildings to your property. With a wide selection of woods and layouts, there is a building to meet everyone's needs.

As we are becoming more environmentally aware demand for timber framed buildings has increased dramatically. These beautiful buildings are normally much cheaper to build than traditional concrete buildings, and typically require less building permission.

Wood buildings are beautiful in their design and construction, and nearly everyone is impressed by the feeling they give, inside and out. They can be used for a wide range of purposes, including:

Summer houses - a beautiful way of adding extra space to your garden. Especially good if you have children and enjoy spending time in your garden.

Extra bedrooms - a cost effective way of adding extra bedrooms to your property. It's much cheaper to add rooms outside the property than inside.

Extra property - if you have large amounts of space on your property consider adding a completely new property. Great for when friends visit, and also for housing teenage kids.

Garage - imagine a garage made of natural materials, rather than brick. Changing the interior for storage is much easier with a wood based construction.

Storage - add extra buildings to your property to store gardening equipment, motorcycles, camping gear, bikes and just about anything else. As your family grow, you can easily add more buildings as required.

Offices - if you work from home, imagine having a timbre framed office right next to your house. I have spoken with many designers who have found their creativity greatly increased by working from a wood based building, rather than one of traditional construction. Having a separate office from the home encourages better separation of home life from work life.

Holiday homes - many companies and individuals use log cabins as vacation properties which they rent out during vacation times. The initial build cost is less than a brick building, and normally yields greater rental value.

Wood buildings have the same interior finish as a traditional build. Lights, electrics, double glazed windows, central heating, and everything else one hope for in a home. Fitting time and cost is normally less than a brick build, as wood is more flexible. There is a enormous range of materials to use for the construction, including woods for the frame, interior and exterior finishes, floors, and walls.

Many people decide on using environmentally friendly materials such as straw bales as wall insulation. Not only more natural than synthetic materials, but more efficient, cheaper and much better for the environment.
