Google review

Ļoti profesionāls un ieinteresēts darbs no ZTC puses, lai maksimāli izpildītu klienta vēlmes mājas būvniecībā, ieguldot laiku visu detaļu precizēšanā, kā rezultātā pašas būvniecības laikā neko nevajadzēja koriģēt un ir tapusi patiesi kvalitatīva māja. Atzinīgus vārdus par mājas būvniecības kvalitāti saņēmām no visiem speciālistiem, ar kuriem sadarbojāmies vēlāk - liekot logus un durvis, jumta segumu un apdari. Paldies par paveikto un varam tikai ieteikt citiem izmantot ZTC pakalpojums māju būvniecībā! Pateicībā, Irēna un Janeks

Factory-made timber frame structures

A timber frame house suits private home projects where precise production, energy performance and predictable on-site assembly matter. ZTC works from a client or architect project, develops the structural solution, manufactures the panels and assembles the structure.

Choosing panel specification and house completion level

The starting price covers an insulated, weather-protected timber frame panel package (shell), using the Comfort specification for a rectangular house with a simple layout and at least 150 m² of gross area.

Comfort uses a 195 × 45 mm frame and mineral wool; Premium uses a 245 × 45 mm frame with wood fibre or cellulose and a 22 mm wood fibre windproof board; Lux uses a 340 × 45 mm frame with wood fibre or cellulose and a 40 mm STEICO THERM layer. See the full list of included and excluded layers on the timber frame panel page.

Choose a panel package or an exterior-complete house with facade finish, windows, external doors and roof covering. Interior finishing and building services are excluded from these scopes. The cost page explains completion levels, delivery and the client’s costs.
