Process
Working with Glenfort Timber Engineering provides you with various levels of support and involvement depending on your particular needs. Our services include taking care of all areas of the design, planning and manufacture of your project. Alternatively, if you already have plans in place, we would be happy to work with your architect or builder to bring your project to completion.
Whatever the size and nature of your project, our in-house team will work closely with you throughout. Many of our clients are well-versed in building techniques and procurement methods, so we offer a simple manufacture and supply service.
Our full Design and Build service takes your project to completion with a truly bespoke package tailored to suit your requirements.
1.
Initial Consultation
We are always very interested to discuss your project with you and have a look at any drawings, information or ideas you may have.
No matter whether a project is small or large, each client’s individual project is taken forward with the same level of care and commitment by Glenfort’s team. For larger projects, we begin with an initial consultation where we can discuss your ideas in more detail including style, size, construction, budget and the role Glenfort can fulfill in your project.
Above all, we take great care of all the details so you can be certain that your project is in safe hands.
2.
Design
Good design is at the heart of every Glenfort project and is the key to getting it right. Our expert in-house team create beautiful bespoke designs which are created to your brief, to suit you and your project requirements.
Upon establishing your brief our designers will generate initial concept sketches and create a structure that bring your ideas to life, delivering the look and feel that you are hoping to achieve within the established budgetary requirements.
As a family business, we pride ourselves on working fairly and honestly, so whether you need a budget indication for a proposed build or a firm quotation for existing plans, our estimators respond quickly with a full, honest, transparent quotation; with options clearly explained and absolutely no small print.
At this stage we will provide full details of your structure including full working drawings, plan layouts, sectional detailing and engineering calculations.
3.
Manufacture
Upon confirmation of your order a project manager will be assigned to oversee the successful manufacture and delivery of your project.
Full working drawings will be provided to our skilled workshop team detailing the structure requirements, layouts and all joinery connections.
Each one of our structures are created by hand and with care by highly-skilled time-served craftsmen. At our workshops we combine these traditional skills with state-of-the-art technology to build our products to precise degrees of accuracy, and in time with your project’s schedule.
When all joinery has been completed our products are preassembled in our workshop so as to ensure that all measurements are accurate prior to site delivery.
