We erect Stick Build Constructions which we have found from our experience to be quicker cheaper for the client. The pro's and con's between Stick and Kit are as follows:

Pros for Stick Build:

1. Cheaper, no factory costs.
2. Less storage on site needed.
3. Quicker to erect.
4. More accurate for finished brickwork.
5. As built on site, no need for cranes or forklifts to unload wagons of panels.
6. Less deliveries to site.
7. Kit panels can be constructed incorrectly and out of square, this doesn't happen with Stick Built.

Cons:

From our point of view there are no advantages to Kit Build over Stick, for the reasons given above. That’s not to say that we wouldn't consider a Kit Contract, but we may try to convert you, previous clients who have converted have been more than happy with the outcome.

Kit Build Construction

Panels are manufactured in a factory and transported to site, where they are constructed like a large jigsaw by a team of erectors. Kit is delivered complete so storage is required and lifting equipment needed for the construction.

Stick Build Construction

With a Stick Built Construction, Timber is delivered to site as and when needed which results in minimum storage. Timber is cut and building is erected on site by qualified joiners. Structural working drawings taken from architect’s drawings are supplied by Silvertec, Structural Engineers. This means that if any queries arise they can be dealt with on-site immediately by the team of erectors.

Why Stick Build?

We have found from experience that Stick Build is the way ahead in Timber Frame Construction whether you are building your own dream home or a block of luxury apartments.
