Firwood Timber Frame have the perfect solution. We can help save you money by using trussed rafter roofs which are more economic solution than traditional methods.

Trusses are generally spaced at 600mm centres giving economy in the use of timber. Erection procedure is simple and repetitive, requiring only a minimum of skilled labour. This then means that architects and developers have a free rein in forming economic roofscapes.

Standard designs require only external walls to be load bearing, thereby eliminating intermediate supports and because of this waste and pilferage are minimised, another money saving aspect

We can arrange programmed deliveries to suit your construction schedules which will then reduce handling and storage costs.

For our design service: calculations for approving authorities are available on receipt of a firm order, thereby eliminating costs of consultant fees.
