Thomson Timber Buildings
and usefulness of your home and garden.
Introducing our range of Timber Buildings
At Thomson Timber we offer a complete package for the design and construction of sturdy traditional post and beam timber framed buildings to enhance your home and garden.
- We design buildings to suit your specific needs,
- process it through your local Planning and Building Control Departments
providing all the necessary documentation where required, - manufacture and
- finally construct your dream project and
- add the finishing touches.
The desire for hand crafted, ecologically sound and more sustainable buildings for the future is good news for us all.
At Thomson Timber it is our commitment to these principles which results in the buildings we produce.
We source our trees locally, from managed forests to reduce the carbon footprint of our business.
We use larch (Larix decidua) for the main timber frame structure and the exterior cladding as this species is naturally resistant to fungal attack and the elements needing no further chemical treatment. Our Russian and Nordic friends can't be wrong!
We control the total supply chain from the local forest to finally constructing your new timber framed building which eliminates many of the potential delays and problems that can otherwise result.
You are no longer limited to mass manufactured summerhouses or other garden products offered by Garden Centres and chain stores - what we can create is only limited by your imagination.
Our original flash format brochure is still available here.
We also have a products micro site which includes Log Stores, Mantel Shelves, and Waney Edge Cladding etc. as well as
Training Courses for you to improve your skills.
Simplified home improvement rules introduced
New regulations have come into force to make it easier for owners of property in Scotland to make improvements and additions to their homes.
Owners may now be able to go ahead without planning permission - but some restrictions will still apply for conservation areas and listed buildings.
Projects including extensions, sheds and garages will not need official approval under the new rules which were laid before the Scottish parliament in October.
The Scottish government said the change aimed to take about 4,000 planning applications out of the system each year. The new rules came fully into effect on 6th February 2012.
