Oakmasters specialises in manufacturing timber frames. We don’t provide assembly or turnkey project services. Instead we have developed a streamlined approach, tailored to meet the needs of end clients. We focus exclusively on manufacturing, which reduces our costs – savings we directly pass on to you. But we can still help, advise and support you through every step of your project.
We maintain a network of trusted designers, engineers, and installers who we have extensive experience working with. We connect you directly with these trusted partners and since there's no middleman markup, you'll save even more on these services. We can also work closely with trade professionals of your choice, or self-builders who have their own principal contractors or builders.
