How much does a turnkey log or glulam house cost?

It depends on the size of the house, the type of structure and the level of finish. After the first consultation we’ll put together a budget and confirm it in the contract as a fixed price that won’t change during the build. You’ll find guide prices by size in our Log house prices overview.

How long does the build take once the contract is signed?

Usually 11 to 20 weeks from the first consultation to handing over the keys. Production in our workshop takes 6 to 10 weeks, and assembly on site 2 to 4 weeks. You’ll get the exact schedule when you sign the contract.

Can I get a mortgage for a timber house?

Yes. Banks now routinely lend on timber houses just as they do on brick-built ones. We’ll prepare the budget, design documentation and payment schedule your bank needs to process the mortgage.

What maintenance does a timber house need?

Mainly renewing the finish on the exterior walls, usually every few years depending on which way each wall faces. At handover we’ll show you what to keep an eye on, and we’re happy to help with maintenance later on, too.

Does the timber settle, and how do you deal with it?

With solid timber, we allow for settling from the design stage and only make the windows and doors to measure after the settling period, once the openings have reached their final size. Glulam beams hardly settle at all, so they don’t need a settling period.

Where can I see one of your houses in person?

Our show house is in Těptín, near Prague. Please arrange your visit in advance so we can give you our full attention. You can also walk round it on a 360° virtual tour.

Three ways to your own timber home

A home for year-round living, a traditional glulam house or something for the garden. Whichever you choose, we design it around your plot and the family who’ll live there.

Log houses

Family homes for year-round living, built from glulam beams or hand-crafted round logs, with clean lines and a stable structure.

Glulam houses

Traditional-style timber houses with carpentry joints. Pick a design from our catalogue or have us draw one up just for you.

Garden structures

Gazebos, pergolas and garden houses in the same timber as our homes, and built to the same standard.

Log house under construction, made in our own workshop

Your whole house, made in one workshop

One team takes responsibility for your house, from design to assembly. You know exactly who’s working on it, and you have one point of contact for every question.

Made in-house

We shape every beam ourselves in our Těptín workshop and check the quality at every step, from sawn timber to the last joint. No subcontractors.

Timber we stand behind

We build with winter-felled softwood: pine, larch and cedar for our log houses, spruce and fir for our glulam beams. We pick the material piece by piece.

Dates you can count on

You’ll get the schedule when you sign the contract, and we plan production so that assembly starts on the agreed day.

Warranty and aftercare

The structure comes with a 10-year warranty. We’re still here after handover, with advice on looking after your house.

Homes we’ve already built

More than 300 houses across the Czech Republic. See them on their own plots, with the families who live in them.

What the people living in our houses say

“From the very first meeting we knew who we were dealing with and what it would cost. The price didn’t change during the build, and the log house was finished on exactly the date they’d promised us back in the spring.”

Jana and Petr NovákLog house · Central Bohemian Region

“What mattered most to us with our glulam house were the details: the corner joints and the windows. The carpenters took real pride in them, and to this day every visitor stops to look at the beams.”

Martin DvořákGlulam house · Vysočina

“The gazebo was up in three days, roof and all. The crew were well organised, worked tidily and cleared up after themselves down to the last scrap.”
