01 - Why you should opt for a solid wooden house?

First of all, it has the lowest house price. Second: Due to the speedy construction. A 129 m² house takes close to 60 days to be made and to be ready to live. A building material house of the same type would take from 120 to 240 days to be concluded.

02 - Others advantageous characteristics are:

It’ll not have a waste of construction material, extremely practical conclusion, easy reforms, low cost maintenances, possibility of a project change, the disassembled and change with no losses, besides of that the thermal comfort, life time durability and beauty of a noble material as the wood.

03 - Does the wooden house much cheaper than the building material house?

The reduction of cost will be as a minimum 30%, being compared with those houses with the same pattern of quality and conclusion. Another important factor is the nonexistence of material waste.

04 - How long is the wooden house construction?

The kit BR HOUSES assembly is along with 15 to 120 days, according to the elected project for the client. In the assembly, the electric and hydraulic materials can already be putted, increasing the construction speed. When placed the house lining, the carpenter and the electrician must to execute its services, for the reason that the cord will pass involving the tiles and the lining, descending into the gutter beginning in the wood until the plugs.

05 - Does the wood construction well valued?

The property value is determined by its localization, its size and aspect, as style and conclusion. The wooden construction, in this viewpoint, it’s not different in anything than the building material houses, but it values and it ennobles the project.

06 - Do I need a special manpower?

The whole used manpower is available in the market. BR Houses indicates a carpenter for the assembly of its kit, but it up to you about the election for one or for another professional. With the kit, the Assembly Manual is attached.

07 - Can I make my own project?

That is one of the main advantages: You can build the project of your dreams or elect one of the BR HOUSE´S various available models. We have a technical group that develops the project as you desire.

08 - How robustness a wooden house is?

The wood life is vague, being adequate its preventive maintenance.

09 - Which are the types of woods used by BR Houses?

The most important one is the Grápia; we also make use of Angelim, treated Pines and wood Pines.

10 - Does the house is an easy target for termites, insects or fungus?

No, termites don't attack Grapias and Angelim, for the reason that they are hard and pungent woods. And the Pines receives a treatment to avoid the insect’s action.

11 - Does the wooden construction burst into flames easily?

Statistically, the probability of a wooden house burst into flames is the same one that a building material house. According to investigations carried out in 1997 in Usp (University of São Paulo) according to the American standard ASTM E69 (for resistance determination to the combustion), the species used by BR HOUSES, responsible for the structure of the house, it has a little percentage of combustibility. The kit BR HOUSES is completely built with high density solid wooden material that makes difficult the fire’s dissemination.

12 - And how is the thermal isolation of the BR houses?

The wood absorbs the atmosphere heat or cold slowly than other materials. The wood structure is so complex that makes it an excellent natural thermal insulator. A practical certification of this phenomenon is that we difficultly feel the wood extremely cold or heat when we touch it, in contrast of many other materials.

13 - Does it possible to take away the entire house for a different place?

Yes, it is possible to construct and reconstruct up the house. But a minimum material fraction will must be substituted.

14 - Does it the better paint or lacquer the house?

This option should be considered according to the client's choice. It’s needed to remember that subsequent to the painting is very difficult to do the original color of the wood all over again, and it doesn’t occur in the back way, when the house is painted with a varnish first.

15 - How will be the electric and hydraulic facilities?

The electric facilities must be made with flexible electric conductors stuck between the lining and the roof, and the protection material for plugs and switches will pass in gutters.

The hydraulic facilities are putted into the foundations of the house and the gutter that becomes apparent can be putted with a special wooden thread or positioned into the wall.

16 - And if I want reform or modify the project of the house later, am I able to do?

Any modification is possible and can be made with no any material waste. These rebuilds should be carried out with BR HOUSES orientation.

17 - Does the wooden construction become safe?

BR HOUSES sponsors, periodically, resistance tests of its materials in the most modern research Brazilian institutes, as the IPT (Institute of Investigation and Technology), Usp (University of São Paulo), the São Carlos School of Engineering and the CET (Center of Technological Studies).

In every single tests carried out, the achieved results confirm an extreme quality of the BR HOUSES kits, achieving a low percentage of deformation when exposed into high impact indexes, humidity and heat. With this fact, BR HOUSES guarantees that its kits are safer than others common houses made with building material.
