Thus, as long as new trees are being planted to replace the felled wood, then you will be choosing and ecologically friendly option for the construction of your new home build.

Secondly, the processing of lumber from the trees does not utilise as much energy as the manufacture of other supplies such as concrete. Therefore, using timber wall frames means you are investing in a material that does not consume a substantial amount of production energy too!

Timber wall frames are convenient to work with

Another major advantage of choosing timber wall frames from your new home build is the ease of manoeuvrability that this material offers the construction process.

The complete control you have over the aesthetic of your home means you can have the unique inclusions that you want, which could possibly increase the value of your structure. Moreover, the technical properties that timber species possess means you will not be compromising the integrity of your new structure!
