Our Services

At Frameworks, we understand that every project is unique, and we strive to provide a tailored service that meets the specific needs of each client. We specialize in the design, manufacture, and often the construction, of a vast range of oak framed buildings, including:

Residential houses, extensions, and renovations. Our expertise extends to crafting stunning extensions that seamlessly blend with existing properties, increasing living space and functionality. We also undertake comprehensive renovations, restoring traditional oak frames to their former glory while incorporating modern comforts.

Garden Buildings & Structures

We can create bespoke garden rooms, studios, and outbuildings that transform your outdoor space into a haven of relaxation, productivity, or entertainment. Whether you envision a tranquil retreat for reading and contemplation, a vibrant studio for creative pursuits, or a spacious outbuilding for hobbies, workshops, or storage, our skilled carpenters can bring your vision to life.

Porches and Garage Conversions

We provide oak frame porches that add an elegant and welcoming entrance to your home. We also specialize in beautifully crafted garage conversions, transforming your existing space into a functional and stylish living area.

Bespoke Design Process

Our design process begins with an in-depth consultation with our clients. We diligently listen to your requirements, ideas, and aspirations, ensuring we fully understand your vision. We collaborate with architects, engineers, and our in-house team to translate these concepts into detailed frame drawings using advanced 3D Vectorworks software. This sophisticated software allows us to not only meticulously plan the frame structure but also to present you with a realistic 3D visualization of your project.

Experience and Expertise

Our team comprises skilled master craftsmen with extensive experience in all aspects of timber framing. We are passionate about using traditional joinery techniques, ensuring that each oak frame is crafted with precision and enduring strength.

Comprehensive Services

While we excel in providing top-quality oak frames, we also offer a comprehensive range of services to support your project. This can include engagement with groundworks, roofing, glazing, and joinery. Recognizing that each client may have unique requirements, we provide this flexibility to ensure a smooth and seamless building process from start to finish.

In-House Planning Services

To simplify the planning process, Frameworks provides in-house planning consultancy services. Our expert team can guide you through the necessary steps, determine if planning permission is required, and assist with the submission of applications if needed. We strive to make the entire building journey as straightforward and stress-free as possible for our clients.
