what we provide

Not Just Traditional, We Offer Passive House Builds in Argyll

Regular House Builds
(Standard Construction)

01.
Living Goal: Modern, Sophisticated

These home builds focus on meeting current regulations while offering customization. Joinery (windows/doors), roofing, and layouts can be tailored to owner preferences and budget using standard approaches.

02.
Faster Construction & Material Flexibility

New builds benefit from easier planning and quicker timelines. There’s significant flexibility in material choices (such as roofing), internal layouts, and design features like standard door installations and joinery.

03.
Cost-Efficient

Upfront costs are generally lower in the short term. They rely on familiar materials, standard joinery, conventional roofing techniques, and established construction methods, keeping initial investment manageable.

04.
Standard Energy Performance

Built to consume minimum energy. Conventional house builds rely heavily on active heating/cooling systems for comfort. Performance of joinery (windows/doors) and roofing is standard, allowing more heat transfer.

Passive House Builds
(High-Performance Construction)

01.
Living Goal: Sustainable & Ultra-Efficient

Passive house builds (or Passivhaus) prioritize minimal energy use. Achieved through extreme insulation, exceptional airtightness (especially at door installations and joinery), specialized roofing, and mechanical ventilation with heat recovery.

02.
Superior Air Quality & Comfort

Passive house builds deliver constant fresh, filtered air and uniform temperatures. Precise door installations and joinery eliminate drafts, and are typically excellent for health and well-being.

03.
Lower Energy Bills

Uses up to 90% less heating/cooling energy than standard new builds. The high initial investment (including specialized joinery, roofing, and airtight door installations) yields significant long-term savings.

04.
Higher Investment, Costs & Planning

Passive house builds require meticulous design, certified materials, and expert execution. Key elements like super-insulated roofing, high-performance joinery, and perfectly sealed door installations demand precision, leading to slightly longer build times and higher upfront cost, offset by long-term benefits.
