IJM Timber Frame

IJM are quality leaders in timber frame manufacture. Since 1965, IJM have been manufacturing quality timber frame buildings for the Irish and UK markets.

During this time, throughout economic booms, and recessions. They have consistently been leading the way in new concepts in timber frame building and technology.

Timber Frame

Benefits of a Timber Frame House

Acoustic Performance – Timber frame houses rely on a combination of insulation and mass to achieve sound resistance. By adding an extra layer of plasterboard, timber homes outperform masonry wall construction.

Fire Safety – All timber frame buildings are designed to meet or exceed the requirements of the building regulations. The Building Research Establishment conducted extensive research into various methods of construction and determined that timber structures did not compromise the fire integrity of the dwelling.

Sustainability – Timber as a construction material can be considered as part of the solution to many of the perceived environmental problems, timber is harvested from renewable sources.

All IJM timber is taken from managed forests in Europe.

IJM is PEFC certified.

Air-to water heat pumps are among the most economical heating solutions by relying on air for your heating needs, the heat pump achieves the highest energy labels.

Mechanical on Demand Ventilation

The Aereco’s mechanical exhaust ventilation system has been designed to optimise the indoor air quality through its smart air inlets and exhaust units that automatically detect the need for ventilation.
