Designing Oak Framed Buildings

Based on the Wiltshire Somerset border, we’re in the perfect location to help with projects in Bath and the surrounding areas. Whether your oak framed building is in need of restoration, you require beautiful oak trusses for existing structures or you want completely new modern oak extensions, we love sharing ideas and bringing unique designs to life.

A Hands-On Team for Oak Framed Buildings Somerset

Our skilled carpenters believe in a hands-on approach, using age old techniques to get the most out of each frame’s potential. Imagine mortise and tenon joints and plumb scribed shoulders, giving a unique and accurate fit at every intersection of the structure. Most of our work is finished using hands tools, providing a ‘carpenter’s mark’ which is a tradition that’s been used for centuries.

We pride ourselves on a flexible approach, scaling the job to your needs. Some projects may just require us to supply some timber trusses for oak framed garden buildings, for example, or you may like us to work with you from initial designs through to construction. All of our frames are completely bespoke, engineered by those with an in-depth understanding of oak framing. We grade the timbers onsite, rejecting those which don’t comply with our high standards, as we feel this is important to ensure our quality craftsmanship is upheld.

Conserving English Heritage Oak Framed Buildings

Not only do we love creating spaces which are suitable for modern living, but we also get involved with older oak frame repairs. It’s the perfect opportunity for us to use our eye for detail, seeing the way the frames were used in the past and how the timber has evolved in character over time. We view it as a privilege to be able to work with timbers in an old oak framed building, helping to develop our craft. While we always respect the heritage of your building, we’ll keep in mind how the frames will be used now, ensuring they’re in keeping with modern living requirements.
