Is an oak extension eco-friendly?

Oak is eco-friendly. This method of construction is one of the most sustainable ways of building. This is down to the fact that the tree is local to Europe and is used in its raw form (green). Typically, oak will be on your building site, ready for assembly, having only been through three processes: felling, sawing and jointing. All of this is done on a small industrial scale, as most oak frame construction is for private properties. And, providing the oak is sourced from sustainably managed forests, you can rest assured that you have made the right choice for the future generations.
