Sustainably Sourced Timber Frames for Development Projects

We understand the challenges you face in finding materials for wooden garden rooms that meet your standards for quality, efficiency, and eco-friendliness. These are concerns you won’t have to consider when you partner with us. Sustainability and environmental responsibility are an integral part of our processes, starting with the green oak and Douglas-fir timber we source. 

As all of our products are made using the same sustainable timber, you also won’t have to worry about paying extra just to be environmentally responsible. Your building’s price tag will only ever be based on its size and features, not where the wood comes from. Beyond this, your future buyers or tenants are likely to pay you back for it significantly.

Our Responsibly Sourced Materials for Property Development Projects

All of our green oak and Douglas-fir timber is taken from a responsibly managed forest site that we have worked with for decades. By partnering with suppliers who adhere to strict environmental standards, we ensure that every piece of wood used in our garden rooms is harvested in a way that promotes forest regeneration and biodiversity conservation. For every tree used in our work, three more fast-growing saplings are planted.

Not only does this approach minimise the environmental impact of our operations, but it also supports the long-term health and resilience of our planet’s forests.

Collaboration with Developers on Customisation

We offer a collaborative approach to customisation, providing you with the opportunity to create the wooden garden room you need. This includes giving you options that will allow you to incorporate additional sustainable features in the future, according to your unique preferences and project requirements.

Our team will work closely with you to understand your vision, and this will include learning more about your sustainability goals. Whether it’s integrating energy-efficient lighting or implementing rainwater harvesting systems, we can ensure your frames are manufactured to one day take these into account.

All of our wooden garden rooms come fitted with insulation as standard, giving you an extra environmentally responsible feature without a specific need for ordering.

Sustainable Wooden Garden Rooms and Property Developer Budgets

We’re committed to helping you achieve your sustainable design vision without compromising your budget. Here is how we do it:

  • Cost-Effective Sustainable Materials: Our sustainable timber is cultivated to be as tall, strong, and straight as possible, maximising the amount used in our work and ensuring cost-effectiveness.
  • Efficient Construction Practices: Our streamlined construction processes and efficient project management techniques help reduce labour costs and minimise waste during the building process.

With an average turnaround time of 6 to 8 weeks from the work being signed off to delivery, we recommend placing orders in advance to effectively meet project deadlines and ensure seamless progress.
