Holzbau Schmid

What Holzbau Schmid does

Holzbau Schmid is a family-owned timber construction general contractor founded in 1952 in Trostberg, Bavaria, Germany. The company delivers end-to-end building services as a single-source provider (Generalunternehmer) — needs analysis, architectural and structural planning, in-house prefabrication, on-site assembly, construction management, and quality control — for private homeowners, housing cooperatives, public-sector clients, and commercial/industrial customers across Upper Bavaria (Munich, Rosenheim, Chiemgau). Its service portfolio spans new construction, renovation, attic conversions, extensions, tiny houses, industrial buildings, vertical additions, dormers, roof windows, conservatories, balconies, and special constructions, supplemented by in-house architecture, interior design, structural engineering, expert reports, and construction supervision.

The underlying technology combines traditional woodworking craftsmanship with modern digital and off-site manufacturing methods. A dedicated workshop enables in-house prefabrication (Vorfertigung) of wall and roof elements for precision, speed, and reduced on-site moisture exposure. Building Information Modeling (BIM) supports planning accuracy, and the company offers timber, solid, and hybrid construction methods with optional smart-building integration. Customer engagement is sales-led and direct — projects are quoted individually, contracts are multi-year, and revenue is generated through general-contracting fees tied to project scope. Customer acquisition relies on regional reputation, an active digital presence (website, Instagram, Facebook), displayed quality certifications (RAL Gütezeichen, Meisterhaft, BG BAU), and recurring architecture-firm partnerships. The company employs approximately 25 people and is led by managing director Stefan Weinzierl.

Financially, Holzbau Schmid is a privately held GmbH & Co. KG with no external investors, no funding rounds, and no public revenue disclosure. Operating geographies are concentrated in Bavaria with selective project work outside the region. Notable completed projects include the Baugenossenschaft Trostberg office tower (~340 m³ timber, four stories), the Stadt Trostberg daycare, the Atelier Bow-Wow-designed 'Bridge Sprout' installation in Munich, and the Schloss Amerang heritage glass-roof construction.
