We’re building smarter.
Being a family owned business for over a century, certain traits develop over time. Continuously striving to become better is definitely one of them, and the desire to improve people’s lives drives everything we do. We are passionate about design and detail but, above all, we care greatly about every single home that we build. Our pioneering spirit is founded upon years of experience and a genuine motivation to do the right thing.
We believe in the art of the possible; producing quality homes that are beautifully designed, sustainable and affordable, is completely integral to our journey. Our homes may be our legacy but the quality of the lives of those who live in them is what truly matters. We want to help to establish communities that will, in turn, improve the lives of generations to come.
Building better homes for the future
Strata have developed a close working relationship with a number of partners, who can deliver an MMC product which utilises sustainable timber frames with a closed panel design.
Test, learn, evolve.
We’re testing, learning, and sharing insights to deliver better homes, faster. Over the past year, we have significantly increased our delivery of the Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), with the first timber frame plots now completed.
The move towards timber frame is driven by our ambition to better understand its environmental and operational impacts, improve build quality and consistency, and support the industry-wide skills shortage.
Our current projects span a mix of our own house types as well as externally designed layouts, which allows us to test and learn across a diverse range of products. While we are still gathering performance data, early insights are promising.
We remain committed to exploring the full potential of MMC in enhancing the sustainability, efficiency, and resilience of our homes and processes. Looking ahead, we plan to accelerate this transition further, with over 200 timber frame plots forecast for delivery in 2025/26.
Project 360
Located off Dunston Road, this collection of 32 Low Carbon Homes is a landmark project in sustainable residential development. This was our first venture into Modern Methods of Construction, and the community, known as ‘360’, was conceived to demonstrate that low-carbon living can be both elegant and attainable.
Comparing Traditional and Timber Frame Construction
On two neighbouring sites in West Yorkshire, we’re running one of our most insightful trials yet – building the same homes in two different ways to see what really works best. Discover more about what we're measuring, our early results and most importantly, why it matters.
