TOP MYTHS OF TIMBER FRAMED CONSTRUCTION

"But it won't be warm enough"

This has to be the most asked question and if anyone was to seriously think about it the most unnecessary question of them all

Let's look at the facts -
Brick work and breeze block construction offer no useful insulation. Using these materials the only space available to fill with any form of insulation (polystyrene balls, foam et al) is between the cavity and we all know how wide that usually is! And we wonder why we have fuel bills in excess of £350 per annum
Timber framed construction offers in excess of 200mm of insulation between the timber frames all the way round, in between and over the top! - Even further insulation can be acheived with an additional layer of external insulation between the wall and the exterior cladding. The cellular structure of wood makes it a natural insulator in it's own right - it insulates 10 times more than concrete and 400 times more than concrete so even the frame is helping insulate your houseThe cellular structure of wood makes it a natural thermal insulator. It insulates ten times more than concrete and 400 times more than steel.

"But timber buildings won't withstand the UK weather ?"

Eco Build Property are importing houses of various styles and sizes that have been built and lived in some of the most extreme environments man is likely to inhabit - Canada and Latvia - the extremes in these two countries are far more greater the UK will ever be - how does -40 in the winter, with 3 foot of snow for 5 months, followed by 1 month of melt water then 5 months of heat that can rise to +70 - these houses withstand these types of temperatures for many many decades with little more than a new coat of paint or varnish every few years and nowadays we can even offer wood that won't need any maintenance for life - AND THAT'S GUARANTEED

"Won't wooden houses get termites?"

In a nut shell - no. All our wood is treated at source and granted a Phyto Sanitary Certificate to confirm that 1: the wood has been treated prior to being used 2: that this treatment undertaken confirms that no wood boring pests etc are present 3: the treatment and preventative maintenance once constructed will prevent any termites or wood boring pests at any time - they are not a problem to properly built and prepared wooden houses

"What about rot?"

Rot can always be a problem in wood when not treated properly or pre-treated before being used in construction - Eco Build pre-treat all the wood used in all of our houses and wood products - all panels come supplied with the certificates and "wooden passports" attached so they can be seen by the relevant inspection bodies - in the UK this is the Forestry Commission and in Canada this is the Canadian Food Agency. Regular preventative maintenance, if required, will always keep your house as protected as possible and maximise the longevity of the wood
