For over 11 years, we have proudly manufactured top-quality oak frames for builders, developers, and small regional oak framing companies. A few years ago, a builder asked us to make him a double garage for his own property. Once the frame was delivered and our fitting team put it up, he told us that years before, he had bought another oak frame, a garden room, from a large retail facing oak frame company – it had cost him and arm and a leg. When they came to site, he was disappointed to discover the company relied heavily on subcontractors for groundworks, frame installation, and roofing. So, he said to us, “you guys have the same offering as the retail company but at a fraction of the price, I just need to sort my own groundworks and tiling”. So, we started offering our products to self-builders. We don’t have the overheads of sales people on commission, or in-house project managers, and we are still happy to be busy at trade margins. It’s a win-win!
The need for planning permission depends on various factors, such as the size and location of the oak garage. We can guide you through the planning permission process and provide advice specific to your project.
Yes. Once we advise on whether you need planning, we work with a nation-wide strategic partner to offer a price match guarantee on the planning application service itself.
Absolutely! We understand that every self-builder has unique requirements and preferences. Our team of experts specialises in creating bespoke oak garages tailored to your specific needs. We offer a wide range of customisation options, including size, section sizes, style, roofing, windows and doors. We will work closely with you to bring your vision to life and deliver an oak garage that matches your exact specifications.
We understand your concerns about upfront payments and the security of your investment. Our payment terms are designed to offer peace of mind and protect your interests. We typically require a deposit to initiate the project, with the remaining balance payable just prior to delivery and if we are fitting, balance is due on completion.
Of course. We offer a manufacturer’s warranty that’s really simple, if any component has an issue that makes it unfit for purpose structurally, we replace it with no quibbles. We pride ourselves on our reputation and word of mouth is a critical part of our success. We don’t leave our customers out to dry when it comes to customer service.
Yes, we understand the importance of visualising the final result.
