Timber Framed Houses
We design and build custom oak and softwood timber-framed houses using traditional joinery techniques combined with modern energy-efficient standards. Our structures provide durability, thermal efficiency, and aesthetic appeal while utilising sustainably sourced local timber. Each project is tailored to meet specific architectural and environmental requirements.
Entrance Gates
Handcrafted entrance gates made from seasoned oak offer security and elegance. We replicate historical designs or create new ones using traditional methods, ensuring each gate complements the property's character. All gates are constructed in our Devon workshop with attention to detail and material sustainability.

Self-assembly timber frame kits include jointed and pegged components for sheds, pergolas, and porches. Available in green oak or Douglas fir, these kits come with instructions and optional accessories like flooring and cladding. Designed for easy assembly while maintaining structural integrity and traditional aesthetics.
Garages and Agricultural Buildings
We construct durable timber-framed garages and agricultural structures using sustainable materials. These buildings combine functionality with traditional craftsmanship, offering long-lasting solutions for storage, machinery housing, or livestock purposes. Custom designs adapt to site-specific needs and planning regulations.
