Traditional Oak Timber Framing

Please see our Timber Framing page for details of our traditionally hand crafted jointed and pegged Timber Frames made from locally grown green English Oak, Douglas Fir or Larch. All our timber frames are individually hand made by craftsmen carpenters in our workshop near Tavistock in Devon. Traditional heavy structural timber framing is an extremely versatile method of construction and the technique can be used to build anything from durable, energy efficient houses, or characterful extensions, to porches, garden houses, garages, gazebos or heavy oak trusses.

English Oak: We do not use any imported timber in our timber frames. We use locally grown Oak, Douglas Fir or Larch, sawmilled from the round by ourselves on our own sawmill.

Wooden Entrance Gates

Our gates are hand made to order. We use high quality timber and take pride in producing a fine quality, enduring product which will greatly enhance both the security and appearance of your property. More photos of our gates can be found by clicking on Entrance Gates All our gates can be made suitable for automation.

Woodchip Woodfuel: We can supply woodchip for woodfuel boilers within West Devon and East Cornwall. Our woodchip is well seasoned and dry (approximately 15-20% moisture) and produced exclusively from the offcuts of local timber from our sawmill. We use a specialist wood fuel chipper which produces the optimum particle size of woodchips for wood chip boilers. The cost is approximately £17 per cubic metre collected or we can arrange local deliveries. We also sell sawmill offcuts by the bundle as firewood.
