ᐅ Timber frame construction: which company is reliable?

"Standard house" is a construction method–independent term. It refers to a house design intended to be built for multiple clients like Müllers, Meiers, or Schulzes according to identical plans (although sometimes mirrored or with shifted non-load-bearing walls).

Detailed construction drawings, structural engineering, verified static calculations, and cost estimates—all ready and available. The house can be built using timber frame construction, traditional masonry, or insulated concrete forms—of course, not the same exact design in different construction methods, but this approach applies to all methods.

The largest solid construction contractors’ cooperative (master builders) abandoned this concept more than twenty years ago; timber panel prefabricators only a few years ago; and concrete panel prefabricators still remain "loyal" to it. The concept still exists in kit homes and with developers who build entire housing estates with cookie-cutter type A and B, or type 16 houses.

Completely missing the point again—I didn’t want your explanations. You really don’t notice, do you?

Yvonne, don’t be so stingy... although you do have a point. Mrs. Impatience actually wanted to know whether she should choose Hanse Haus or Haas. And so far, nobody has answered that... not even me.

I don’t know. Karsten

Yvonne, now don’t be so picky.

Karsten, I am not picky.
This constant rambling tires not only me. It is increasing in frequency and intensity, and eventually even I will reach my limit and stop overlooking it.

Thank you @ypg, maybe it will get through that way.

The most commonly built house in Germany is the Flair 113, and if you choose minimal specifications, it is correspondingly inexpensive. The thinnest possible approved slab foundation without waterproof concrete, concrete roof, interior walls made of aerated concrete, prefabricated roof trusses, uncoated windows, cheapest ceramic fixtures and radiators, €20 tiles, no mechanical ventilation system, no shading devices, cheapest roller shutters, only six power outlets in the kitchen, and the lowest-quality exterior plaster that turns green after about ten years... wonderful. The low price does not come from the house model itself, but from the use of cheap materials. And whether the waterproofing and other work is done properly or just done cheaply has already been doubted by more than one person.

That [U]I definitely can’t notice: “explanations coming later don’t fit at all” reads to me more like “you need to provide more explanations until I understand,” not like “I didn’t want your explanations.” Now I get it

As soon as Mrs. Impatience comments on the remaining open questions, that can gladly be answered. By the way, World-e has answered that a timber frame house from a local carpentry workshop will be her choice. With reasoning, although much shorter than mine.

... which is neither from Hanse nor Haas

Correct.
