Our Oak Frame Construction Process

Our listed building specialists deliver genuine oak frames using heritage-grade timber and conservation-led techniques. Our process is as follows:

Assessment and Conservation Planning

Before beginning work, we conduct a survey to assess the condition of your building and its structural needs. We assess whether heritage timber repairs, strengthening, or sympathetic alterations are required, and ensure all changes comply with listed building consent requirements.

Heritage-Grade Oak

Our team sustainably sources oak that is structurally sound, durable, and matches the original materials of your property, ensuring a natural fit within listed buildings in Brighton, Lewes and the surrounding areas.

Traditional Oak Carpentry

Using genuine oak carpentry techniques, we hand-cut joints and mortise-and-tenon connections, creating handcrafted beams that match the original architecture’s appearance and durability.

Oak Frame Construction

After preparing your oak frame, we assemble each component on site using traditional carpentry techniques. This ensures a frame that is both structurally solid and visually harmonious with the rest of your property.

Finishing and Integration

We finalise the process by anchoring the frame within the building, enhancing durability while maintaining the original oak's genuine appearance and texture.
