Scandia-Hus have been designing and building, beautiful, individual and energy efficient timber frame homes in the UK for over 40 years. They have a reputation for successfully combining advanced Swedish technology with the best of British architectural style and building craftsmanship.
Their teams work on multiple complex and unique projects and pride themselves on consistently providing high levels of customer service to their customers.

Evolve had a challenging task with many system legacy issues to overcome. They approached this systematically, keeping us well updated during the whole process. The result is a system that works, with complete support, which my employees and I trust 100%“
