Timber frame houses are known for their durability and strength. The interlocking timber beams create a rigid framework that can withstand heavy loads and provide excellent structural integrity.
Timber is a renewable resource, making timber frame houses an eco-friendly choice. Timber can be sustainably harvested from responsibly managed forests, and it has a lower carbon footprint compared to other building materials like steel or concrete.
Wood has excellent natural insulating properties. Timber frame houses often have thick walls filled with insulation, providing high energy efficiency and reducing heating and cooling costs.
I hope all is well and you and all at KTF are keeping very busy.
I just wanted to drop you a note offering a big thank you and looking for a little support.
We moved into our new house two days ago and although there still lots of small decorative items to complete internally and the garden landscaping to be completed.
Both myself and Linda want to say a huge thank much for yours and the teams support at KTF. As you know, this was a fist time project for me and I started out completely green and the support shown was so helpful.
Please find attached some images of the house as it looks today. I hope you feel we have done your timber frame justice.
