If you’ve recently had your planning permission and building warrant approved, that’s a brilliant place to be. These are two of the biggest steps in any self‑build project, and getting them over the line means you’re much closer to seeing your new home take shape.
Once the initial excitement settles, it’s completely normal to wonder what happens next. For many people, this stage can feel like a bit of a pause — but it doesn’t have to. With your drawings approved, you’re now in the ideal position to start looking at your timber frame kit home in more detail.
Why This Is a Good Time to Get Your Timber Frame Quotation
Now that everything has been signed off by planning and building control, we can take your architectural drawings and prepare a clear, straightforward quotation for your timber frame kit.
It’s a helpful step because it gives you:
- A better idea of what your build will cost
- A sense of the timeline ahead
- The chance to keep your project moving without rushing
- Clarity on what’s included in your kit and how it all fits together
There’s no pressure attached — just useful information that helps you plan with confidence.
What You Can Expect When You Share Your Plans
Once you’ve sent us your approved drawings, our team will review everything and outline the details you need.
You’ll receive:
A clear breakdown of your timber frame package
We keep things simple and transparent, so you can see exactly what’s included.
A clearer look at how your approved design becomes a timber frame kit
By the time you’ve reached planning permission and a building warrant, your home has already been designed with timber frame construction in mind. At this stage, we translate the approved drawings into the specific details required for your kit. That includes things like panel layouts, insulation options, and any practical considerations for manufacture and delivery.
