Traditional Build.jpg

 

 

 

This was a traditionally built house, complicated by the fact that it was on a sloping clay site. Some of the foundations were 2.4m deep to compensate for some huge Turkey Oaks which sap moisture from the ground.

 

"During construction, Brian Grainger personally was on site for the whole course of the contract. "

Grainger Timber Frames were employed to construct this 4 bedroom house - double and single storey, 2nd build for the customer.

 

This large 4 bedroom house fits in well with the surrounding village properties. The facing bricks (Chatsworth Antique) were chosen to be more in keeping with reclaimed bricks. Grainger Builders were contracted to the project from dig to decorate.

Large Timber Frame Bungalow.jpg

 

 

 

This very large timber frame bungalow was constructed on a concrete raft foundation. Over the years the site had been built up with brick rubble which meant a dig down to 1500mm to find good bearing ground.

 

The customer opted for timber frame because of the speed of build and low heating costs.
