What We do

At Hands On Wood, we believe off-site construction is the future. Prefabricated homes are manufactured in controlled factory environments, using advanced technologies and sustainable materials to create energy-efficient, eco-friendly, and high-quality timber frame houses. Our goal is to work with the best off-site manufacturers to bring more of these exceptional homes to families across the UK.

How We Build

For projects with Baufritz and Meisterstück-HAUS, all components are manufactured in Germany to the highest standards, then transported and delivered directly to site in the UK.

On-Site Assembly

It begins with slab preparation — installing the sealing membrane, marking wall positions, and levelling the base. Using a crane, each prefabricated element is then lifted into place with precision. Our skilled team connects and secures every component, ensuring structural integrity, airtightness, and a flawless finish.

Assembly Sequence

Ground floor walls → ceiling elements, stairs, and posts/beams → first-floor and upper walls → roof structure.

Within 3–5 days, the shell is complete and the house is watertight.

Additional Works

We also carry out roof flashing, guttering, downpipes, tiling or membranes, as well as balconies, terraces, and external stairs. Inside, we prepare for finishing with suspended ceiling frameworks, bathroom wall/ceiling closures, ventilation system installation, and air pressure testing.

At Hands On Wood, we take pride in precision, efficiency, and craftsmanship — ensuring every home we build meets the highest standards.
