About us
Josef Kessler GmbH is a master carpentry business founded in 1959 and based in Hirrlingen (district of Tübingen). The company carries out carpentry work, roof renovations and roof conversions, roof coverings and custom timber construction – including timber frame construction and cross-laminated timber structures. Further areas of service are renovation and insulation (including ETICS with wood fibre insulation materials), hazardous substance remediation (asbestos and building contaminants), monument preservation and restoration, as well as the manufacture of wooden bell frames for churches. The business sources oak timber as logs directly from the surrounding forests in the Schönbuch and the Rammert, cuts it itself and stores it until the required degree of dryness is reached; for renovation work it keeps a permanent stock of 20 m³ of oak in various cross-sections. The team comprises around nine employees, including two master craftsmen. The catchment area lies in the region of Tübingen, Reutlingen, Rottenburg, Horb and Balingen.
