Comfort & Savings
Designed to suit you - building in timber frame offers greater design flexibility so you can include the layout and features you want for your comfort and lifestyle.
Save finance costs - the standards, flexibility, speed and efficiency of the timber frame process means your finances are easier to manage especially if a bridging loan is necessary.
More Comfort with faster heat - the heat is instantly available to you because there is no absorption of heat by concrete blocks. Your rooms heat faster. That means more comfort and more savings... year after year.
Cut your Heating Costs - timber frame homes are highly insulated and cost up to 40% less to heat than a typical masonry-built house.
How much might you save? - Some energy sources seem to be running low just as energy demand is rising in Europe & Asia. As a result prices will possibly rise faster in coming years. Already we have seen major increases in Ireland in the past few years alone:
All fuels up to 53% in 5 years of which:
Home heating oil up 85% in less than 3 years
Natural Gas up 105% in 40 Months
Electricity up 53% in under 5 years
Solid fuels up 36% in 5 Years

So if you live in a traditional block build house and heating is costing you, say €1,500 a year at the moment , this would be only €900 or less if your home was a well-designed and well-built Kelly Timber Frame, a saving of €600 in one year. If heating costs continue to rise at current rates, you would be saving a €1000 or more every year within a few years. |
