Farmplus Constructions Limited
For more than thirty years Farmplus have been producing timber buildings which are extraordinarily robust, aesthetically pleasing and excellent value for money. Our buildings are designed to BS5502 Class 2 (an agricultural specification).Farmplus buildings are made using timber grown in sustainable forests. Wood is the most environmentally friendly commercial building material known to man. In Europe we only harvest 65% of forest growth, therefore tree numbers increase every year. Uniquely it is renewable and, even allowing for the energy required for logging, shipping and processing, it is effectively carbon neutral – for every cubic metre of growth, trees absorb one tonne of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere storing it as carbon and releasing oxygen. Because wood breathes it helps keep the indoor environment of Farmplus timber buildings healthy, balancing the humidity inside by absorbing moisture when it’s wet and releasing it when it’s dry.

About Us

Support
Farmplus is based in Longridge, Lancashire, where we prepare all timber buildings. Our staff are available and willing to discuss any aspect of your project. We can also make site visits to advise on the layout and positioning of your timber building. We offer a nationwide service with a northern and a southern sales office.
Erection
Farmplus buildings are delivered in kit form ready for erection by the customer or your preferred contractor. If needed we can often provide details of erectors we may know in your area.
Maintenance
The Farmplus style of timber building originated in 1973. Thousands of our timber buildings are in operation today. All of our timber is treated with Celcure P60 (UK) wood preservative by vacuum pressure impregnation which provides long lasting protection due to its deep penetrating action. A re-application is required at 20 year intervals.
Groundworks & Planning Permission
The groundwork for a Farmplus timber building is easily prepared and we can help by supplying drawings for your contractor.
Where we can, Farmplus will offer advice with planning permission. We also supply detailed drawings to support your planning application. Some timber buildings may not require planning permission under permitted development, however we recommend that you contact your local authority planning department. A timber building will be a good choice.
