Trading as Timber Kit Solutions Ltd · Telford · Service area: Telford

Timber Kit Solutions in short

Timber Kit Solutions is a Telford timber-frame specialist designing, engineering and cutting bespoke and pre-designed kits in house, with free structural feasibility reports for self-builders. Full Structural Timber Association membership sits alongside timber-trade, safety and quality standing stated on its own site. The company has been active since two thousand and eight, among the longest records in this round.

The customer record is strong but narrow: four point eight stars on Google from thirteen ratings, the only review source on record. That headline score leads much of the round, though the base is small. Timber Kit Solutions answers by phone, email and enquiry form, and publishes instant pricing on its pre-designed kits.

Our view: this firm suits a self-builder or extender planning a timber-frame project who wants the frame designed and cut by a specialist. What counts against Timber Kit Solutions is that supply is the whole offer, so a separate builder must raise the frame, and no insurance details are published. That leaves two sets of paperwork behind every project.
