Some of our bandsawn oak is bought sawn from a sawmill. We are assured that it is British and legally felled to Forestry Commission regulations.

AthyECOSlate

Info:  Homeowners want cost effective eco-friendly building products that look good, are high performance but with low lifetime maintenance. Builders are looking for lower cost, labour saving materials. We have developed AthyECOSlate, a hard impact resistant plastic roof tile made from a specified recycled plastic, to satisfy both.

Our roof slate has significant advantages over traditional roof tile materials such as ceramic, slate or cement. AthyECOSlate is much quicker and easier to install, and it can be walked on without cracking. It is light weight, so your roof design needs less supports, and can be more flexible from a design viewpoint. It is durable, low cost and requires no maintenance as they will not crack, lift, break or warp. As they do not contain any natural minerals or asphalt / cement, they do not encourage the growth of algae and moss.

The demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly green roofs (also known as roof gardens or 'living' roofs) in the UK has increased dramatically in recent years. Environmental concerns and the reduction of carbons are a high priority to many building designs. The increased pressures on urban land and density levels in built up areas continue to reflect the adverse impacts on drainage, biodiversity, climate conditions, water abstraction and green space.

County Flat Roofing

Info:  Of Weston-super-Mare, Somerset is your registered Sarnafil and Alwitra single ply flat roof installer. Extensive green roofs are designed to be virtually self-sustaining. Maintenance is once-yearly and involves weeding or an application of slow-release fertiliser to boost growth. They can be established on a very thin layer of 'soil' (most use specially-formulated composts): a thin layer of rockwool laid directly onto a watertight roof can support a planting of Sedum and mosses. It traps rainfall and releases it slowly, so it helps to prevent the flooding that can happen after a storm in a built-up area. It also acts as extra insulation for the building. But its principal virtue is that it’s a haven for wildlife, especially beetles and spiders. In turn these provide food for birds -— the black redstart has been encouraged to nest in one part of London as a result of green-roof construction.

Eco Vitro

Info:  Is a new conservatory roof glass that will improve the look of your existing conservatory and will enable you to use it all year round. The Eco Vitro options incorporate many benefits that will also provide energy savings, as the conservatory roof glass used offers a number of advantages over polycarbonate conservatory roof alternatives, which offer poor sound and insulation qualities and in some cases many installations suffer from leaking conservatory roofs. The key advantages of Eco Vitro include solar control glass, which helps to maintain an even temperature. With this eco-friendly glass option, a new conservatory roof will also benefit from the self cleaning glass properties incorporated into the range. Your existing conservatory can become the extension to your home that you always wanted, by simply switching the glass to this new eco-friendly option from Eco Vitro.

Highvalue Timber Frame

Info:  Design, manufacture, supply and erect timber frame buildings and energy efficient eco-houses. We also offer dedicated roof truss design and manufacture together with posi-strut metal web joists – either as a stand alone service for developers or as part of a complete timber frame structural package. We specialise in individual designs using a combination of traditional and hi-tech materials. Our joinery division can supply everything you need to complete the basic structural shell of a building.

We support sustainable forestation and all our wood comes from suppliers with positive reforestation policies. As well as international suppliers, we also make extensive use of homegrown timber from sustainable forests.

Our softwoods are mainly European Redwood and Whitewood sourced from Sweden and the Baltic States. Oak and Douglas Fir are the most popular choices for principle frames – the latter proving particularly popular for its look, durability and relative cost effectiveness. For external cladding, we generally use Cedar and Larch, but are happy to source any kind of timber our clients would like.
