Frame-Tech Structures established in 2008 are based near Dewsbury West Yorkshire. Due to our central location we are ideally situated to provide a national coverage with close proximity to major motorway links. The management team and employees, who have many years’ experience of the timber trades industry, realized the long term benefits of timber frame systems and have built up a successful business within the industry.
By incorporating modern methods of construction, we are able to provide timber frame solutions that meet the most challenging design and construction criteria.
The timber frame construction sector is still very much a growth industry and with this in mind we have adopted a unique approach, focusing on quality, flexibility and excellent service.
More and more Developers, Contractors and Architects are realising the advantages and benefits of timber-frame over traditional brick and block construction. With quicker build times, increased logistical efficiencies and greater cost controls, an increasing number of UK developers are changing to timber-frame.
Frame-Tech Structures specialise in creating top quality, cost-effective timber frame structures for a wide range of developments including social housing projects, large multi-story apartment blocks, commercial and public sector projects including hotels, schools and care homes.
As active members of The Structural Timber Association (formally UKTFA) we enthusiastically move forward, embracing the new developments of MMC, adopting the advances in materials and design, benefiting from the extensive research carried out by the STA and other trade bodies.
