Thermohaus

Thermohaus takes a streamlined approach to kit supply. Unlike some suppliers who offer a range of kit packages with varying specifications, which can often lead to confusion, Thermohaus provides a single, carefully considered package. It’s not about being the cheapest; it’s about delivering the best possible value for money through quality and simplicity.

While Thermohaus anticipates that most customers will choose the specified single-skin timber frame external wall construction, the design remains flexible. If preferred, it’s entirely possible to add a cavity and an additional outer skin—such as brick, rendered block, stone, or similar—around the timber frame.

When it comes to finishes, Thermohaus generally recommends either horizontal larch lap boarding or a render finish on the timber frame. However, there’s room for personalisation—alternatives like horizontal larch shiplap, vertical channelled or board-on-board cladding, western red cedar options, tile or slate hanging, and profiled metal sheeting are all viable.

It’s worth noting that some of these alternative finishes may require changes to the roofline at the eaves and verges. For that reason, Thermohaus encourages clients to finalise their choice of external finish early in the design process.
