The ladies from our office enjoyed a wonderfully festive wreath-making workshop, coming together to get creative while supporting a great local cause. Subframes are proud to have contributed to John Eastwood Hospice and to share such a meaningful seasonal experience as a team. 🎄✨ We hope you enjoy some of the wreaths we created.
The preferred method is to fit cavity closers at the point of build. This is the only way to fully satisfy National House Building Council (NHBC) and Local Authority Building Control (LABC) requirements. Closers must be installed to the manufacturer’s specification, with brick ties securing them directly to the brick and blockwork. However, if installation […]
Cavity closers are integral components in construction, effectively sealing the gaps in cavity walls around windows and doors to protect the building from moisture and improve energy efficiency. While most cavity closers on the market are designed for square or rectangular reveals, not all projects are that straightforward. There are so many reveal shapes and […]
Representing Subframes UK, Simon Bingham & Brittany Oakley, were delighted to join Spitfire Homes last week at their Ellenbrook development to celebrate a fantastic achievement. A huge well done to Josh Taylor, Senior Site Manager, who has been recognised with the NHBC Pride in the Job Award for delivering outstanding build quality across the site. […]
Subframes Golf Day 2025 We had a brilliant day out at Morley Hayes Golf Club for our annual Subframes Golf Day. A fantastic opportunity to bring colleagues, partners and friends together for some friendly competition (and a fair few laughs along the way). This year’s winner was Simon Bingham, who put in a superb performance […]
Cavity walls, consisting of two layers of brickwork or blockwork separated by a gap, act as effective barriers that keep moisture out of a building’s interior. Their superior insulation and ability to prevent dampness have changed the way British homes and buildings are constructed. But when windows and doors are added, the gaps around these […]
Cavity closers are key components in any building project, creating a barrier in cavity walls to keep out damp, improve insulation and add structural support around window and door reveals. With numerous options available to suit different construction types, installation stages and performance needs, choosing the correct cavity closer means understanding the specific requirements of […]
That’s the annual Subframes Open over for another year. Much nicer weather this year at College Pines Golf Club. An exciting climax, left Shawn with the trophy. Thanks to all the participants. We are looking forward to the Subframes Open 2025.
No, you shouldn’t use Celotex as a cavity closer. Celotex is designed for insulation, not to seal the cavity around windows and doors in masonry walls. Cavity closers serve to prevent heat loss, improve fire safety and minimise moisture ingress. For correct installation techniques and compliance with regulations, choose purpose-built materials like uPVC and EPS. […]
Regardless of the type of project you’re working on, ensuring that your windows fit perfectly and perform as they should is essential. It’s not just about meeting building regulations – although that’s important too – but about creating a home that’s comfortable, energy-efficient and built to last. There are two key components that make a […]
