Lightweight Steel Framing (LSF) is widely used in commercial builds but is easily adaptable to residential/domestic builds. Key benefits are long term strength, greater U-values (subject to insulation specification) and rapid building. Walls can be erected within a day or two for single storey and 3-5 days for 2 storey.

Key Benefits to LSF Construction
Rapid build - unto 50% faster than conventional building methods
Unaffected by weather, therefore construction can take place in any condition without jeopardising the build quality
Fabricated off site to order, meaning less materials on site, less deliveries, less waste (saving on skip costs)
Next to no movement once the structure is built, which means no cracks and no maintenance
Allows internal trades to start work sooner because the shell will be water tight within days
The common mis conception is that LSF is more expensive than traditional construction methods. However, this is not the case. We are competitive with traditional method pricing and we will finish your project up to 40% faster than traditional build. There is also lower room for human error during construction as the frame is machine manufactured off site to precise measurements. Which in turn makes the erection process simple and problem free.
