Regardless, You Dream it, Touchwood makes it real and keeps it Realistic
This unique method of building involves the use of modular timber panels. These create a strong and durable wall surface that serves as both the frame and interior walls. Touchwood-trained builders construct these walls in our yard, then stand the walls up – wherever construction is taking place, onsite or in our yard – in what seems like a matter of hours. In contrast to conventional building techniques, the Touchwood wall system effectively builds a home inside out. Once the walls are erected and the roof is on, the house interior is sealed without cladding. Then the insulation and cladding follow after.
This is the method of construction most commonly used for residential building in New Zealand. First, it involves the construction of a timber frame composed of a support network of joists, studs, and rafters. Once the framing is erected and the roof is constructed with your chosen roofing material, builders then start with preparing the building and installing the cladding and joinery. With this method of construction builders then work inward to add insulation, plumbing and wiring etc. The interior lining of the home is typically finished with a plasterboard and painted creating the classic look of a conventional home.
Experience the convenience of transportable homes, available in solid timber or conventional timber frame options. Built in our Silverdale yard, these homes are effortlessly transported to any North Island location via Craig Walker Building Removals. With homes up to 120sqm, depending on your design and site needs, our services cater to your requirements. Most homes move in one piece, while two-storey homes may require transportation in two sections. Building in our yard saves time, allowing concurrent house construction and on-site services. Plus, take your home with you if you decide to move. Explore our yard for ready-to-go homes for sale!
