THE ART OF OAK FRAME

Welcome to Dorset Timber Framing Ltd
We are a traditional Oak timber framing company based in the heart of Dorset. We design, manufacture and construct all ranges of Oak framed buildings across the south of England. The main areas we cover are Dorset, Hampshire, Wiltshire, Somerset, Sussex and Surrey.

Our company has over 15 years’ experience in traditional carpentry and the building work required to create a finished product.

Most of our business is with private residential clients from start to finish but we also work with builders and architects to provide beautiful Oak frames. We design including structural engineers calculations then manufacture in our workshop and erect on site.

We are deeply passionate about the craft we are so lucky to work in and in producing a high level of finish using the best available materials. All of our timber is sourced from Europe and we only use the finest grade of Oak for all the projects we produce.

Please enjoy looking at our work and we look forward to hearing from you.

Two bay carport with adjoining gym room

     We needed a new barn to act as a gymnasium and double car port with storage space. The design and finish of the product that Dean an his team delivered certainly exceeded our expectations. It is not only truly functional, but a wonderful piece of craftsmanship admired by all those that see it. Thanks again to the team for a great job.

Refurbishment to existing and an oak garden room

Glazed Oak Porch

   We were absolutely delighted with the design and workmanship put into our request for a glazed porch to the side of our cottage. The main brief was that it should look like it had always been there and not be a modern appendage on an old cottage. It also had to protect us from the wind and rain on a very exposed site. The finished item exceeded all our expectations, it has weathered beautifully and was worth every penny of a very reasonable price.

House renovation, new garage & rear extension

   This was a very large project for us comprising of the total refurbishment, improvement and extension to a rather tired looking property, in addition we wanted to build a large oak framed garage and workshops with an office above. Dean and his team worked very hard to complete the job before Christmas 2013. Dean achieved a high standard of finish with many nice additions that came from Deans experience and pooled ideas. We are very pleased with the way the whole project has been completed.

Double garage & utility room

   Absolutely delighted with the project Dean and his team carried out for us. From initial discussions about design, right through to final completion, everyone was pleasant and helpful; willing to offer constructive suggestions and advice; flexible when necessary; and skilled at their work. They turned up when they said they would, and the job was completed on time and on budget. We have also much appreciated the prompt, no quibble approach to a couple of minor issues which have arisen since completion. Thank you everyone involved – highly recommended.

Stone and oak extension with utility and shower room

   Dean designed and built our garden and utility rooms. We approached a number of companies but his design was simply outstanding. We found him and his team a pleasure to deal with. His workmanship and attention to detail are of a standard rarely seen these days. He takes great pride in the quality of the work he provides and we enjoy the benefit of it everyday.

Roger & Terri bought a tired 1960`s cottage and wanted to give it a new look, modernise and add some additional space. We added an Oak framed porch and lead roofed bay windows to the front elevation, a rear extension with an Oak balcony and a timber garage with upstairs living accommodation. The combination of materials complements the house nicely. #dorsettimberframing #oakporch #dorset #extensions #garagespace #balconylife #architects #accoya #timberframe #timberdesign #caddesign #timberbuildings ...

John & Jane were so pleased with the additional space to what was a small cottage for a growing family.
They requested a timber framed building and were conscious of budget so we designed a hybrid softwood stick frame with Oak features building and the final result was fantastic. Now it has weathered in it looks right at home amongst the apple trees and garden flowers. #morelivingspace #timberframehomes #naturalmaterials #dorset #dorsettimberframing #teamworkdreamwork #oakframes #extensions #architects
