Yes, I have looked intensively at other manufacturers and found that Stommel Haus is far ahead of other manufacturers (not all) when it comes to timber house construction. The frequently heard blanket statement "We can also clad the wall with wood" shows me that they don’t understand it. But it may be that you only find that out after experiencing the advantages and disadvantages of wood for several years. We have consciously decided so far in favor of the construction, technology, wall structure, processing details, etc. of Stommel Haus.
No!
You yourself (please reread what YOU wrote at the beginning) sharply criticized the planning of your first Stommel Haus house; you were not satisfied with the result.
Incomprehensibly, after many years you went back to Stommel Haus again and were very dissatisfied again (please reread that as well).
Whoever wants to understand that, I sadly do not.
Describing the other house builders as basically backward is somewhat arrogant, because nowadays, unlike back then when we both built for the first time, there are many providers who build timber houses in an innovative and modern way.
Current Google reviews do not only write good things about Stommel Haus, even though I don’t give much weight to them myself, but please don’t portray it as if Stommel Haus has the sole competence in proper timber house construction and all competitors are stupid or incapable.
