Frame houses on 2 floors are a type of suburban real estate, which is gaining more and more popularity every year. This is due to the fact that such buildings have a huge number of advantages, but they will be discussed a little later. It’s worth starting with a little background, namely, that for the first time such houses began to be built on the territory of Canada, therefore in Russia they are often called Canadian. In our country, the demand for such real estate appeared relatively recently, as earlier people treated it with distrust. There was an opinion that houses built using this technology are notable for their fragility and high cost. In fact, the situation is quite different. Now consumers have been able to make sure that this property is able to serve for a long time, and its construction takes much less time and money than building a brick house. To become the owner of such real estate, it is enough to contact our company, choose the most suitable 2-storey frame house project and discuss the details of further cooperation.
We always use only high-quality materials, and our employees have many years of experience, which allows us to cope with the tasks quickly and efficiently. As for projects, they can be developed individually for each, as sometimes existing projects may not suit the client in some way. The construction of this property can be carried out year-round and on almost any soil, since due to the low weight there is no need to form a reinforced foundation. It is important that in the end the building is very durable and reliable. It keeps the temperature at any time of the year, so you can live in such a property with the whole family all year round.
A two-story frame house will be an excellent choice for those who are tired of city life and the hustle and bustle in general, but do not have large financial savings for building a brick house. High indicators of environmental cleanliness indicate that you do not have to worry about your health and the health of your family. It is not at all difficult to heat such houses, since the temperature in them rises and falls to the desired level quite quickly, while it remains for a long time, because the second floor in this case will act as an analogue of a thermos. All these features allow you to significantly save on maintaining the microclimate of the room at an optimal level. On the Internet, you can find projects of frame two-story houses for every taste, so everyone can build the house of their dreams and move into it in the very near future.

They built a country house using frame technology plus a small veranda. The cost came out quite economically, and in terms of 3 and a half months. Finished even a couple of weeks earlier than promised. We go to the country house only in the summer, so I can’t say anything about thermal insulation. Thanks
Thank you so much for building a house of aerated concrete. The quality of both material and work is excellent - FRIENDS ENVY. The terms of the work performed - in about 4.5 months a house was built from scratch. Good luck to you all, good clients and big houses!!
They built a house for us in 3 months (they started the foundation at the end of summer, and finished the walls and interior decoration in the fall), it turned out not cheap, but everything was thought out, our participation was minimal. This year we are building a bathhouse with them! Thank you for such professional guys that you provided us!
Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication! Everything is prompt, high-quality, fast! Thanks to the team led by Alexei!
The company built a great summer house for me! I have no complaints about the company, next summer I am going to build a bathhouse and a garage, I will definitely contact them. Thanks to everyone, especially Sergey's team, which built for me, a lot depends on them!
We built a house of aerated concrete in your company - very satisfied. A house was built on our pre-prepared foundation in 45 days. And as a gift received home insurance for a year. So I recommend.
In August 2017, I ordered a foundation (monolithic slab) for a house in the Leningrad region. In 2018, I already ordered the house itself. I can recommend, because were satisfied with the result. Everything was done quickly and professionally.
We ordered a house and a garage in this company in the summer of 2016. The builders worked for about 4 months without a break (they liked it very much). Everything was done according to the contract, no extra money was asked.
Frequently asked questions before construction
About company
How long has your company been operating?
Our company began work as a repair and finishing company in 2007. From that moment we have grown to the construction industry and all thanks to our employees. Special thanks for the work invested in the development of the company.
What confirms the competence of specialists?
All architects and engineers of the company have qualification certificates. Because the project is not accompanied by a company license, but by an architect's certificate. By law, the architect is responsible for the project.
Does your company do all the work? Or are you hiring contractors?
- We ourselves carry out general construction, finishing works, site arrangement, wiring of engineering systems (electricity, heating in the house, water supply) and so on.
- We invite contractors to work that we do not perform every day and require specialization, for example: the production and installation of windows and doors (special orders), air conditioning systems, boiler room equipment, installation of wells, septic tanks.
- Search, attraction, compliance with agreements and control over the performance of work by contractors is our task.
- We carry out 80% of all works on the construction of your house on our own and only 20% involve contractors.
- We conclude an agreement with each contractor, in which he indicates a guarantee for the work performed by him, and in case of malfunctions, their elimination lies with the contractor.
Can I see the objects that are currently in operation?
Yes, there are objects that we can show at different stages of work and houses that have already been handed over by prior arrangement.
about the project
Buy a standard project or order an individual one?
Buy a finished project.
- The plus is the price.
- Minus - it will not provide for all your wishes regarding materials and layouts. Also, it will require refinement for the features of your site.
Buy a finished project and modify it.
It all depends on the changes you want to make. It is possible that it will be more profitable for you to develop an individual project than to modify a typical one.
The cost of such improvements should be discussed at the meeting.
Development of an individual house project.
- Pros: all your wishes regarding all the characteristics of the house and the site are taken into account.
- Minus - the cost of such a project is higher than a typical one.
BUT! You can develop an individual project for free. If our company builds, then the development of an individual project is free of charge for you.
How is the development of an individual project?
- The development of an individual project begins with the signing of the contract and the first meeting with the architects, at which the client voices his wishes. As a result of the meeting, a design task is drawn up, which is an annex to the contract.
- Architects prepare several versions of sketches and decide with the client in which direction to move on. During the entire design period, several meetings with the client take place, at which all architectural and design solutions are worked out in detail until the client is satisfied with everything, which he confirms with a signature on the Draft Design.
- Next, a Working Draft is being developed. This is the calculation stage of each design solution, in which the client is not involved.
- This whole process takes from 2 weeks to 2 months, after which the client receives a finished project with ready-made detailed calculations, which is necessary when applying for a building permit.
About construction
Will you travel to the site where the construction is planned?
Yes. When inspecting the site, we take into account the dimensions, the entrance from the road and its width, the proximity of neighbors' buildings, the presence of a slope or difference, cardinal points and what kind of soil is on the site.
Do you help with the selection of a building site?
Yes. Our experts help with site selection. They will help you find it according to your requirements on the Internet with ads.
What affects the final price of a home?
The cost of building a house is affected by:
- site features: relief, conditions of entry, location
- materials used in construction
- house architecture features
- conditions for the production of work (limitations on work time)
What guarantees do you give?
We give a guarantee of 3 years for our work. The warranty is given by the manufacturer and it is different in each case. There are materials for which the manufacturer gives a lifetime warranty.
How can I control construction?
- We send each client a step-by-step photo report of the work.
- We install online video surveillance of the object 24 hours a day, you and the company's specialists have access to it (paid service).
- You can also use the services of companies that carry out technical control.
- The construction is being delivered in stages, you always see which stage and only after accepting one, we proceed to the next.
When is the contract signed?
- The design contract is signed at the meeting, before the first communication with the architect.
- The construction contract is signed after the development and approval of the estimate.
When do I have to pay for your work?
For design, an advance payment must be made within 5 days after signing the contract in the amount of 70% of the total amount. The balance is paid when the finished project is handed over to the client.
Payment for construction is broken down according to the stages that are specified in the estimate. Each stage of construction is also divided into payments, the amount of which may be different (usually this is due to the need to purchase materials)
How are builders placed?
What communications are needed to start construction: electricity, water?
Electricity with a capacity of at least 5 kW and technical water.
If not, we will bring our generators for FREE. Water in most cases in wooden construction is used only for domestic needs, we will provide its delivery on our own.
What time of year do you build?
We build all year round, one of the important conditions in the spring-autumn period is a suitable road for vehicle access.

Modern construction practice has proven that not only a one-story, but also a two-story frame house can be reliable, comfortable and relatively inexpensive. The use of the latest building materials, improved wood processing technology used to create the frame elements of a residential building, and the introduction of other innovative techniques help us build a two-story frame house, the appearance of which, as well as the comfort of the interior, will appeal to the most demanding customer.
Technologies used in the construction of a two-story frame house
With many years of experience in the construction of two-story frame houses, we use only those technologies that are recognized in the professional environment as the most effective:
- assembly of the frame of the house at the site of its construction from timber, racks, truss elements and other components, with the laying of insulation and wall cladding with sheet material;
- construction of a house from frame-frame elements connected to a rigid two-story structure with an interfloor overlapping device;
- the use of a frame-panel construction of a house, which provides for the use of pre-made panels with insulation as a material for the walls.
Projects of frame two-story houses
Having a large number of standard projects available, the company's engineers are always ready to develop individual projects of two-story frame houses, which will take into account the features of the relief of the land plot or the wishes of the customer regarding the architecture of the building and the shape of its roof. In the absence of data on geological and geodetic surveys, we are ready to carry out them on our own in order to select the most economical and acceptable foundation design. The cost of manufacturing a project varies depending on the presence or absence of studies on the creation of balconies, attics, bay windows, French windows or other additional architectural details.
The price of two-story frame houses
The cost of building a two-story house is more than a one-story house with the same area, since more building materials are used, and the foundation must be more massive in order to withstand the greater weight of the building without deformation. However, this justified increase in cost is paid off by saving the area of land allocated for construction. Construction costs are also reduced due to the reduction in the area of \u200b\u200bthe foundation and roof. There are other advantages of two-story frames that justify some increase in their cost:
- a two-story house is much more representative than a one-story one;
- the overview of the area from the 2nd floor becomes panoramic;
- in the house you can select separate areas for children of different ages;
- placement of bedrooms on the 2nd floor will increase the comfort of a night's rest.
The procedure for placing an order for construction
You can find out how much it costs to build a house in each case using the feedback posted here on the site. But in any case, the cost of construction will be acceptable, since we purchase the necessary building materials directly from suppliers at wholesale prices, bypassing intermediaries. Therefore, the minimum cost of building materials is included in the construction estimate.
Place your order and we won't let you down.
Frame two-story houses are ideal for year-round living and organizing summer holidays. The applied technologies make it possible to complete trucks with the necessary building materials for subsequent assembly at the facility. The dimensions of the elements are set during the design process, and the customer knows in advance all the information about our frame structures.
The construction process will take no more than 3 weeks, after which the building will be ready for residents to move in. The base of the building is a foundation of piles with anti-corrosion painting. This is an ideal support for houses built using frame technology.
External finishing is done with clapboard, imitation timber, OSB boards, plastic siding or blockhouse. Lining choose grades "B" or "A" with a natural level of humidity for the configuration "Economy". You can order chamber drying lining by choosing the appropriate package.
Choose a project and order the construction of a turnkey house in any of the proposed configurations:
- economy;
- standard;
- lux.
Independently determine the thickness of the walls and insulation for the future home, using the available offers. You can order housing without finishing and perform the necessary work yourself. Contact us now and get ready to move.
The housing issue does not lose its relevance in our country. For many families, it comes first. An alternative to an expensive apartment can be the construction of a wooden house in the suburbs. The most popular are frame houses. When installing such objects, new technologies and high-quality materials are used.
Peculiarities
There are a huge number of projects of residential buildings, which are based on a wooden frame. Two-story frame houses have received wide recognition. In Russia, there are frosty winters in most areas, two-story houses fully comply with the requirements and standards and can be fully used for the coldest seasons. The frame is the basis of such houses.
There are two types of frameworks:
- Platform. This type implies a phased construction of the object. The advantages include the fact that it is easy to install and has a minimum number of prefabricated elements.
The work algorithm is as follows:
- ceilings are assembled at the base of the house, they are guides that will hold the entire frame of the house;
- then the supporting racks of the first floor are fixed;
- the overlap of the first floor is made, which will be the basis for the second;
- racks of the second floor are placed, floors are assembled, which will also be the floor of the attic.
- Through. To implement the through-frame method, much more effort will be required. Through racks are fixed at certain intervals with other nodes in such a way that deformation does not occur. The racks themselves are placed without interruption through the entire frame to the roof.
Very often, preference is given to frame houses by people who are impressed by the classical style, when the supporting structures serve as the basis of the interior. The frame is made of timber, which is rigidly fastened with steel anchors or bolts. The walls of the building are sheathed with special slabs (DSP). All wooden elements are treated with antiseptics and primers, which guarantee fire resistance and insect protection. Firms professionally engaged in the construction of such facilities give a guarantee of 40-50 years.
Two-story frame houses have such advantages as:
- the design of a two-story frame house has advantages that stone buildings do not have. Such facilities require much less heat and ventilation resources;
- from the point of view of ecology, a frame house can be called a standard, since it is made of a material that does not contain toxins;
- fire safety issues are resolved at the proper level: wood is treated with a special primer, it successfully resists high temperatures;
- efficiency in the construction of the facility (3-4 months);
- low cost.
The list is far from complete, because there are a number of technical characteristics that make such objects attractive to many owners.
Factors that affect the operation of a wireframe object are as follows:
- the quality of the materials used for the walls;
- used insulation;
- type of construction technology.
The disadvantages of frame houses include the following:
- the ventilation system must be well thought out in terms of design;
- in order to reduce the risk of a short circuit to zero, it is necessary to properly conduct electrical wiring;
- sound insulation is also an important factor, therefore, during construction, increased attention should be paid to this factor;
- in interfloor spaces, a remedy for mice and cockroaches should be placed, since there is a possibility of their occurrence.
Projects
Two-story frame-type houses are in great demand in Russia, especially the following formats:
- 10x10 m;
- 9x9 m;
- 7x9 m;
- 6x8 m;
- 8x10 m;
- 8x8 m.
For them, there are standard drawings that are easy to find on the Internet. Often, options are practiced when the main project is taken and finalized by the homeowner to fit his needs. Design is often ordered from a construction company that builds frame houses. The total area of such housing ranges from 50 to 120 m² or even 150 square meters. m. The roof is most often made of materials such as metal tiles, slate or ondulin.
A two-story frame house provides ample space. If desired, you can make an extension to the main house: a terrace or veranda measuring 6 by 8 m or 6 by 12 m. Often, in frame houses on the second floor, you can find bay windows that are taken out on the facade. These lightweight structures are used as a veranda, they are made both in summer and in winter. The basis of the bay window can be either a metal channel or a wooden bar. It is worth considering some projects in more detail.
Frame two-storey house 8x8 m
There are many modifications of frame houses of this format. The total area of the building is about one hundred square meters, of which the usable space is 68 square meters. meters, which is quite enough for a family of 4 people. The foundation can be tape or concrete blocks. Recently, you can often also find a pile foundation, which is not inferior in strength and longevity to a concrete foundation.
The advantages of a pile foundation are as follows:
- no need to wait six months until the material shrinks, as is the case with a strip foundation;
- installation of piles takes 1-2 weeks, their cost is lower than casting a concrete foundation.
Traditionally, the kitchen and utility rooms are located on the first floor, while the rest rooms and living room are usually located on the second floor. Exterior finishes are varied.
Two-storey house 6x6 m
This property is only 65 sq. m.
It may include the following rooms:
- economic;
- wardrobe;
- children's.
House size 6x4 m
An area measuring 6x4 m has a minimum of rooms. The useful area inside the facility is about forty square meters. The ground floor can house utility rooms, a kitchen and a living room. The second floor is usually reserved for rooms such as a bedroom, a nursery and a living room. The foundation is usually made of reinforced concrete.
The frame is made of timber 10x10 cm. The ceilings are beams 12x15 cm in size. Outside, such a house is sheathed with OSB boards. The insulation of the external walls of the 1st and 2nd floors is made of Isobox basalt slabs 20 cm thick. The building is finished on the outside with siding, and inside the walls and partitions are sheathed with clapboard and drywall.
DIY construction
It makes sense to differentiate the step-by-step instructions for building a house into several stages.
- Preparatory and design work. The site should be cleared and slopes determined. After the flat area is ready, marking begins in accordance with a pre-approved plan. It is necessary to maintain accuracy so that in the future the object does not have deformations and distortions of the walls.
- Foundation. The weight of the frame house is relatively small, and the load on the ground is negligible. If the house will be located in a lowland, where there is an excess level of moisture, then it is more reasonable to build a pile-screw foundation. The foundation is often made of reinforced concrete slabs, since it is inexpensive, characterized by versatility, strength and durability. Sometimes slabs are used as a base for a concrete floor, which saves additional resources on floor installation. If the object is located on a hill, then you can also make a tape shallow foundation.
- Floor. Floors can be either concrete or made of boards and beams. If the foundation is tape, then the concrete floor is created from lightweight expanded clay concrete, which is inexpensive. If the floor is completely wooden, it is necessary to create a harness from a 10x15 or 15x15 cm beam. The choice of beam size depends on the thickness of the wall and the size of the space between the piles. The greater the distance between them, the thicker the beam should be. A beam of 150x150 mm or 150x200 mm is often used. Strapping from a bar allows you to evenly distribute the load over the entire plane of the floor, increase its rigidity and further strengthen the frame of the object. The easiest step is to fix the lag. The distance between them is determined by their parameters. There are special tables where all the standards are spelled out in detail. A heater is laid between the guides, which must be wrapped in a vapor barrier film.
- Walls. First you need to determine what the height of the walls will be. If their height is 3 meters, then the vertical racks are made 285 cm. The distance between the racks is dictated by the parameters of the insulation sheet. If the insulation consists of technical wool, then it is made 1.8 cm smaller so that the installation is carried out by surprise. Racks are attached using metal corners, which are screwed with self-tapping screws. Jumpers are made between the racks without fail. Much depends on various parameters. How many jumpers to put should be determined in the working order. During the installation of the structure, be sure to use a plumb line and a good two-meter level. These tools are simple and effective, they do not allow the vertical guides to deviate. After the racks are installed, the top trim is made, the same board is used as for the floor. The top harness is required because it creates the necessary rigidity, which will not allow the vertical guides to “walk” in different directions if they are subjected to loads. Sheathing the house outside with OSB sheets also gives the entire frame additional rigidity. Guides of internal partitions are used as additional stiffening ribs.
- Roof. If the frame is made correctly, then the installation of the roof will not take much effort. The choice of roof largely depends on the characteristics of each project and the personal preferences of the customer. Flat roofs are not very popular in Russia, because in winter they accumulate a lot of snow, which gives an unnecessary load. The most popular are gable or shed roofs. The angles of inclination in them can be from 10 to 47 degrees.
