Timber Frame Supplier

What Timber Frame Supplier does

Structural Timber Frame, operated by Roof Profiles Ltd, is a privately held UK timber frame construction manufacturer and installer headquartered in Irvine, Ayrshire, Scotland. Founded in 1982, the company delivers a fully integrated design-to-installation service — combining in-house timber frame design, off-site manufacturing, and CHAS-accredited installation — for residential housebuilders, commercial and institutional builders, and individual self-builders across the United Kingdom. Its customer base includes major UK housebuilders such as Lovell Homes, Persimmon Homes, and McTaggart Construction, with documented project delivery across sites in Irvine, Saltcoats, and Dalrymple Place.

The business operates a sales-led, project-based commercial model: customers request quotes via the company website and are taken through a custom quoting process with no publicly disclosed pricing. Manufacturing is performed in a single facility in Irvine using modern production technology alongside traditional expertise, with long-established supply partnerships with timber and connector providers VIDA, SODRA, and MiTek. The company holds CHAS accreditation for both corporate and installation teams and UKCA marking for construction products, positioning it for procurement-eligible enterprise and public-sector work.

Revenue mechanics are anchored in three streams: professional services for timber frame design, one-time project revenue for manufactured timber kits, and professional services for installation. Marketing is conducted primarily through website content (educational articles on timber frame construction, customer testimonials, and quote-request CTAs), with no self-serve or product-led growth motion and no intermediary channel partners. The company is privately held under family ownership with no external investors, parent company, or disclosed funding rounds, and has operated continuously with a stable ownership structure for over four decades.
