at home with quality
If you’re looking for an ultra energy-efficient self-build, look no further than the route offered by German package company Hanse Haus
Building with Hanse Haus is not only a wise environmental choice, but it’s easy on your wallet, too.
Before addressing how energy can be used most efficiently in the house, Hanse Haus ensures as little valuable energy as possible is consumed in the first place. Particular attention is paid to the building envelope – the shell – to make sure it’s airtight, ensuring that no heat can leak out through joints or gaps.
To minimise thermal losses, Hanse Haus focuses on the narrow spacing between the wooden beams on the interior as well as the exterior walls. Thick continuous mineral insulation is also used in the outer walls, roofs, windows, doors and flooring to better retain heat. What’s more, all Hanse Haus homes have thermally efficient triple-glazed windows as standard, and components are assembled using a high strength construction method. Hanse Haus homes are noted for their impressive energy performance levels, which far surpass UK Building Regulations. We’re also a certified builder of Passivhaus projects.
Apart from the associated low running costs, there are many other advantages. Hanse Haus guarantees that homes will be built on time (depending on design choices, we can complete a 200m2 property on a turnkey basis within just 14 weeks) and on budget. To give you full peace of mind, Hanse Haus homes undergo countless external and internal quality checks — and a motivated workforce and first-class building materials are a matter of course. To ensure quality and individuality, we take care of carpentry ourselves, from staircases and windows to balconies and special components. A site manager presides over everything, and qualified German craftspeople are also sent to construct your Hanse Haus home.
Hanse Haus has built over 30,000 pre-manufactured homes with the same vision and passion for energy efficiency and quality since the company was founded 85 years ago. For more information, call Hanse Haus on 0800 302 9220, or visit hanse-haus.co.uk.
