If you have a
project requiring a traditional oak framed garage, you may want to consider the
range of ‘Chippy’ kits offered by Round Wood of Mayfield.
Kit frames are
particularly suited to trades people (as well as accomplished DIYers) as they
are pre-designed, available on short lead times and go together easily. All
buildings are pre-assembled in workshop, with posts being numbered, to ensure
ease of fit once on site.
They also represent
excellent value, given the economies of scale Round Wood have been able to
achieve by investing in significant machinery. Prices start at just £2,395 for
a 1-Bay garage kit, which includes the 150mm oak post frame, as well as
softwood studwork, rafters and weatherboard.
The range of
‘Chippy’ kits comprises 47 standard designs, from 1 to 4 bays, in a variety of
roof profiles. Additional options of half-bays, log stores and side aisles
allow for most requirements to be catered for (although modifications are
possible).
As
the ridge heights are below 4m on all designs, permitted developments rights
are granted for many projects (exempting them from planning). The smaller
frames in the range are also exempt from Building Regulations (having an
internal footprint of under 30/m2), providing certain site criteria are met.
Round
Wood of Mayfield also offer groundwork, assembly and roofing services. Whilst,
however, they already have nationwide teams, they are looking for new
contractors to aid their ongoing expansion and will consider regional
exclusivity arrangements.
Round
Wood supply nationwide from their base just outside of Mayfield. In addition to
oak framed buildings they offer hardwood decking, oak and walnut flooring,
joinery products and garden features.
