Wood as a raw material
Unlike other materials, wood is a natural, renewable raw material. To build your dream home, we only use wood from controlled and sustainably managed forests, where every tree felled is replaced with a new one. This is also ensured by the "PEFC" and "FSC" seals of approval. In addition to using an ecological raw material, we are also making an important contribution to environmental protection.
Wood also ensures a healthy and pleasant living climate by, among other things, absorbing moisture and releasing it again when required. The production, use and disposal of used timber are also 100% environmentally friendly.
The advantages of timber construction
Timber has numerous advantages over traditional solid construction. Building with wood is not only a decision for oneself, but also for future generations.
Wood is versatile and enables a wide variety of solutions. It is strong, flexible and therefore even earthquake-proof.
Wood radiates warmth and comfort, for an absolute feel-good effect. It also ensures a healthy indoor climate.
Wood is an environmentally friendly and renewable raw material. It is CO₂-neutral and reusable.
Wood is economical. Thermal insulation to climate house or passive house standards is easy to achieve. Feel-good temperatures prevail in a timber house in summer and winter. A later conversion and extension is cost-effective.
Durability of wood
How durable is a timber house?
We are often asked: "Is wood durable? Won't it rot over time?". A house is an investment. It must retain its value and even increase in value over the years.
Looking back at the history of timber construction, we realize that there are structures made of wood that have lasted for over 500 years without maintenance measures or special paints, if attention was paid to constructive wood protection during construction.
How is such a long service life possible?
The "secret" is to use wood that has been exposed to as little moisture as possible or, conversely, has had the opportunity to dry quickly. Our knowledge of the material, constant training and the experience we have gained in 40 years of business enable us to plan our buildings with the utmost precision, without neglecting structural wood protection. We can therefore guarantee you maximum safety and minimize defects and errors during construction.
