Specialist timber treatment

From tackling destructive woodworm to eradicating wet and dry rot, our timber specialists safeguard your structural integrity with effective and environmentally conscious treatments.

ProtectSince your expertise specifically bridges the gap between timber frame construction and masonry, your value proposition is unique. You aren't just a general contractor; you understand how two different materials—wood and brick—interact over time.

Here are the specific reasons why clients should choose your business as a Timber & Wall Tie Specialist:

• Differential Movement Expertise: You understand how timber frames shrink and masonry remains stable. You ensure that the ties used (such as Type 6 or specialized sliding ties) accommodate this natural movement without causing structural cracking.

• Moisture & Rot Prevention: Unlike generalists, you know that incorrect tie installation can bridge the cavity and lead to dampness or "wet rot" in the timber studs. Your expertise protects the wooden heart of the home.

• Timber-Specific Fixing Knowledge: You specialize in the correct pull-out strengths and screw-fixings required for timber substrates, ensuring the masonry is securely tethered to the frame without compromising the structural integrity of the wood.

• Preservation of Thermal Performance: You understand the importance of the building envelope, ensuring that tie replacements do not puncture vapor barriers or degrade the insulation performance of the timber frame.

• Specialized Remedial Solutions: If an older timber-frame property is failing, you provide the niche skills needed to retro-fit ties into wood that may have changed density or moved over decades.

Expert property surveys

Our thorough diagnostic surveys accurately identify damp and timber problems. We provide detailed reports crucial for homeowners, buyers, and insurers, outlining clear findings and recommended actions.
