Everything you need to know if you are considering a timber wooden garage

It’s September, and the long summer nights are slipping away, but there is still time to turn your attention to an outdoor project like installing a bespoke timber framed garage.

Whether you have just moved in to your house, or spent a lifetime creating your dream home, it is always exciting to start a new project – and we are here to help you every step of the way if you are thinking of replacing your old garage with a new timber one.

Right now, the addition of wooden garages has never been more popular for homeowners and investing in one is fast becoming an attractive option for adding value to people’s gardens and driveways.

Whether you are replacing an old and unloved garage that’s past its best, or creating a brand-new timber garage in your garden, it is a job best done before the winter. You will be adding extra character and charm to your property, and doing something that will certainly add value.

If you are reading this because you are thinking about having a bespoke timber framed garage, here’s a few helpful facts and bits of advice from our team of experts at Scotts of Thrapston.

Timber framed garages add aesthetics

Timber framed garages look fantastic and offer a rustic, natural appearance that blends in with any garden environment – especially if you live in a rural, countryside spot. They combine functionality with stylish aesthetics, and will enhance the overall appearance of your property, irrespective of its age or style. With expert planning, construction and maintenance, one of our timber framed or wooden garages will serve your needs for decades and it is always our pleasure to create traditionally designed buildings that fit in with your surroundings. We manufacture them to blend seamlessly and sympathetically with your existing architecture. Made to measure in the UK, our creations have a variety of roof options to choose from, maintaining a traditional feel to your property, outbuildings and driveway.

Insulating your new timber garage

Wooden garages naturally provide better insulation than concrete or metal, and this will keep them warmer in winter and a little bit cooler in summer. Timber framed, natural buildings built to your exact specifications will also ensure that your car or motorbike, and workbench and tools, will all remain dry and free from condensation – hugely important if you’re looking for a cost-effective solution to a problem you have with your existing, older garage.

Our experts can reassure you that a wooden garage is a worthwhile and wise long-term investment and that, with the right maintenance, you can ensure it remains an attractive and useful addition to your family home.

Timber framed garages = sustainable

By choosing a more natural alternative to brick or aluminium, our timber garages are an environmentally-friendly option and offer strong insulation properties. As you probably already know, wood is a sustainable and renewable resource, a factor which strongly contributes to making our buildings and garages a top choice with customers.

Our timber is vacuum pressure impregnated using Osmose Naturewood, a treatment and process which instils a largely maintenance free aspect to our all Scotts of Thrapston timber framed buildings.

By choosing our wooden garages, you are also contributing to the creation of a significantly smaller carbon footprint and a more sustainable future.
