The Green Build Centre
We believe today’s homes demand a reliable, robust, high thermal performance building envelope, which drives energy-efficiency, prevents heat loss, eliminates thermal bridging and controls solar gain over their lifetime.
These criteria are key performance factors in minimising energy running costs and reducing carbon emissions for any home, while maximising energy efficiency, achieving advanced levels of comfort, higher BER ratings and reducing running costs for the home owner. |

TIMBER FRAME HOMES
Timber Frame construction is a method of building which uses a timber frame as the main means of structural support for the home/building; it is a precision engineered structure that is both strong and durable.

PASSIVE HOMES
The Passive House is the fastest growing energy performance standard in the world with 30,000 buildings realised to date, the majority of those since 2000. Read more on passive homes.

SOLAR PANELS
The sun powers natural cycles on earth like the wind, water flow and plant growth. But the sun is also such a reliable source of heat and light that we sometimes take it for granted.
|
AIR TIGHTNESS
Air tightness measures the flow of air in and out of a building. Air leakage is the uncontrolled flow of air through gaps and cracks in the fabric of a building.
|
HOME UPGRADE
A BER is similar to the energy label for a household electrical appliance like your fridge. The label has a scale of A-G. A-rated homes are the most energy efficient and G the least efficient.

HEAT PUMPS
Air to Water Heat Pumps are ideal for retrofits or indeed where vertical/horizontal collector systems are not suitable.
