Oakmasters is a family business, specialising in the design, engineering and manufacture of luxury bespoke oak framed and glulam timber framed buildings. We can help you create the space you have always wanted. We use innovative methods and techniques in combination with traditional hand craftsmanship to produce oak and glulam timber frames for newbuild and renovation projects, both residential and commercial.

What do we build?

Our products range from from simple oak porches, through luxury hand finished oak roof components and oak beams, to full oak frame houses and oak extensions. Recently, we have added glulam timber structures to our capabilities. Most of our projects can also be designed in glulam timber, which is specifically suitable for larger, challenging timber structures. Our services range from supply only, to supply and build packages. Whatever stage you are at, whether you are starting from scratch, have a few vague sketches or a complete master plan, we can help. You may want a complete oak framed house, a hybrid building where oak and glulam timber are used alongside other building materials such as bricks, or you may want to simply add some warmth and character to your home with an oak vaulted roof, a few oak posts or oak ceiling beams. We  create beautiful, period style properties, but also work on designs that are contemporary and avant-guarde. 

We design, engineer and build bespoke oak framed houses and oak framed extensions, oak framed garden rooms, oak conservatories, oak orangeries, oak framed swimming pool houses and luxury oak garages, as well as residential and commercial glulam timber frame buildings.

Our bespoke oak building components, such as luxury, hand finished oak trusses, oak porches, as well as oak beam and post kits are available in design and supply form, to be installed by independent building contractors.

Why build with oak?

Oak is an affordable luxury that adds vitality, warmth and ambiance to any development. But aesthetics aren't the only reason to use it:

• Oak is strong - tough, dependable, oak doesn't buckle like steel in a fire. As it dries out and ages, oak actually gets stronger
• Oak is flexible - oak framing offers huge potential and architectural adaptability, as oak frames can be used in combination with a variety of materials from masonry to modern structural insulated panels
• Oak is fast - oak frames assemble around 30% faster than masonry as they are pre-fabricated off site and assemble as a kit
• Oak is authentic - unlike most of other construction methods, you can actually see and touch the beautiful organic oak frame holding up your house
• Oak is sustainable - we source our oak from sustainably managed sources and as we use green oak to construct our frames, we use very little energy and produce very little waste
