Common Questions
Everything you need to know about our Baltic timber sourcing, structural engineering, and corporate operations.
We work almost exclusively with premium Latvian Pine (Pinus sylvestris) and Spruce (Picea abies). These species thrive in our northern climate, resulting in tight growth rings that give the timber superior density, exceptional structural integrity, and natural thermal insulation compared to warm-climate softwoods.
Yes. We have comprehensive shipping and transit routes spanning across the European Union and internationally. All lumber packages are kiln-dried, sorted by grade, packaged with protective wrap, and loaded into cargo containers directly from our mills in Praulienas pagasts.
The manufacturing process at our workshop takes approximately 4 to 8 weeks depending on log thickness and scribing style (hand-scribed vs machine-milled). Once shipped to site, the structural interlocking frame can usually be raised and locked by our team in 10 to 18 days, followed by roof and finishing phases.
Every tree we fell is logged in accordance with the Latvian State Forest Service (Valsts meža dienests) regulations. We practice selective thinning rather than clear-cutting whenever possible. Furthermore, we replant three saplings of native species (Pine, Spruce, or Birch) for every tree harvested, keeping Latvia's forests thriving.
No. All mobile applications published and maintained by WOOD CONSTRUCTION operate under a strict zero-data-collection policy. We do not collect personal data, device information, location data, or telemetry. Our applications work entirely offline using local memory storage for privacy security.
Absolutely. We coordinate directly with your architect's plans. Our in-house engineering team translates typical architectural files into specialized structural timber layouts, specifying cut configurations, notch details, and weight-bearing timber posts before wood profiling starts.
