Blocks, concrete or timber? What should we begin to construct with?

Construction advice from expert builder Kieran McCarthy
Blocks, concrete or timber? What should we begin to construct with?

The benefits of a timber frame build is that it is quick and relatively straightforward.

Getting in the right frame

Hi Kieran
We are about to start our new build just outside New Ross in Co. Wexford. My question for you is: there seems to be a wide choice in what we use to construct the externals of our house. Block, ICF or timber frame. Which one would you recommend and why?
