A successful prelim #airpressure test confirmed that we are on the right track with our latest #passivhaus in the #WyeValley.

The glazing has been installed, the metal roof covering & timber cladding is well underway & the inside is almost ready for plastering 😊

[Passiframe Ltd @Passiframe]

Not only do we aim to inspire efficiency we feel passionately about inspiring #young to build for the future using our #lowenergy #timberframe system. They are all working well towards their qualifications & participating in additional training courses in the factory 😊

5 days of craning in our #timberframe system & we have a house! A #lowenergy, #sustainable dwelling prefabricated to #passivhaus standards 😊
A fantastic team effort yet again, bringing together a vast range of skill and expertise with an impressive end result

[Passiframe Ltd @Passiframe]

3 days in & we are ready to close the building in with the roof panels. A fabric first approach to construction with #timberframe panels fabricated to #passivhaus standards consisting of #cellulose insulation, airtight & vapour barrier board, tapes & membranes
Onto the next stage

Team briefing on site in #Monmouthshire preparing to crane in our #timberframe system tomorrow. An exciting time for us and our clients to take the project to the next stage

Our latest #passivhaus project features a floated concrete floor finish with internal steps. The carpentry team was commissioned to handcraft a #bespokekitchen along with various other built in furniture elements

Incredible what can be achieved when working as a team towards one goal in synchronicity & with a mutual passion for what we do.
Forever grateful to an amazing core team & team of subcontractors/suppliers that help to reach the end goal

We have completed our latest #sustainable family home built to #passivhaus standards. Achieving 0.23ACH on the #airpressure test is testament to the high quality work/knowledge put in to the project by our experienced team

Having lived in a #passivhaus through all four seasons our clients are finding that the comfort aspect is true to form. By allowing #crossventilation during the cooler hours & closing the #tripleglazedwindows during the hotter hours the internal temp is #cool & comfortable

[Passiframe Ltd @Passiframe]

The #carpentry team is busy carrying out the internal works. The #interior is highly designed so #attentiontodetail is paramount. Both the factory/site teams have collaborated to pull together the #bespokefurniture. We look forward to sharing more on completion...

A sneak peak at the exterior of our #lowenergy, #sustainable project which is near to completion. Now that the scaffolding is down we can truly appreciate the stunning stonework reusing the stone from the existing cottage & the #WyeValley grown #cedarcladding #inspiringefficiency

[Passiframe Ltd @Passiframe]

Always a great feeling for our clients when the #groundwork team switch from excavating to coming back up out of the ground. The @Isoquick #insulatedfoundation has been installed on our #Brockweir project offering our clients a #thermallyefficient ground floor all year round

[Passiframe Ltd @Passiframe]

Beautiful #WyeValley grown #cedarcladding sitting warmly against the reused #foreststone of the old cottage & #weatheringsteel window surrounds. Our project in St Briavels is at the finishing stage with our carpentry team & is really taking shape

Great to have you guys visit @arborarchitects 😊

[Passiframe Ltd @Passiframe]

Homegrown #britishcedar cladding ready to be installed on our project in St Briavels, #ForestofDean. Grown locally in the #WyeValley & processed by our local sawmill. Sourcing timber within our locality equates to a #lowcarbonfootprint & a great feeling for us as a company 👌

What do you do when ground conditions mainly consist of solid rock? Use the boulders to make a retaining wall for planting & create a wildlife pond with what’s left 🌱 Saving money/reusing existing materials

Beautiful early #morning walk to plan the day ahead. Grateful to have this just around the corner from our #timberframing factory. Now with the added bonus of Hips Social based at the #lydneyharbour too for our #coffee and soup fix ☕️👌🏻

[Passiframe Ltd @Passiframe]

Off to a good start in 2022 with progress on our project in St Briavels coming along nicely. The sun warming up the tone of the surrounding trees was a welcome sight. Now to fit the rest of the glazing ready.
