Tackling Common Problems in Timber Frame Buildings Head-On

Timber frames are incredibly durable, but they aren't immune to problems. Moisture ingress is a common culprit, leading to issues like rot and fungal decay in the timbers. You might notice timbers softening, discolouration, or even cracks appearing. Sometimes, previous repairs using modern, incompatible materials can trap moisture and accelerate deterioration. Ignoring these problems can lead to more extensive damage over time, potentially compromising the entire building's structure. We’re here to help diagnose these issues accurately, getting to the root cause of the problem to prevent recurrence.

The Art and Science of Traditional Timber Restoration Materials

Choosing the right materials for timber frame restoration is crucial. For many historic buildings, traditional materials like lime mortars and renders are essential. Unlike modern cement-based products, lime allows the building to "breathe," preventing moisture from becoming trapped within the timbers – a common cause of rot. We combine time-honoured techniques with a deep understanding of timber properties to ensure that any new work or repairs integrate perfectly with the existing frame. Our expertise ensures that we select the best materials for your specific property, providing a sympathetic yet highly effective restoration.
