We're starting a new restoration project at Harbour Cottages in Seaton, and we'll be taking you along for the process.
These oak-framed balconies have been standing in an extremely exposed, sea-adjacent position for around 14–16 years. Overall, the original oak frame has weathered remarkably well — but years of wind, rain and coastal exposure have inevitably taken their toll.
Our initial survey identified water ingress through shakes in the oak, movement in the balustrades, deterioration to sections of timber and one corner support post requiring replacement.
And that's only what we can see.
The next stage involves opening parts of the structure to understand exactly what's happening beneath the decking and within the joints before the restoration gets underway.
Over the coming weeks, we'll be sharing the investigation, the problems we uncover and how we go about repairing an exposed oak structure like this properly.
Follow along — this should be an interesting one.

An oak frame is a significant investment, so choosing who builds it deserves more consideration than simply comparing the final figure on a quote.
Look at the work they've already completed. Ask about their experience with oak. Find out who will actually be designing, cutting and assembling your frame.
A cheaper quote doesn't necessarily represent the same materials, experience, construction methods or level of involvement.
The questions you ask before choosing your builder can make a very big difference to the project you end up with.
And any good oak frame specialist should be more than happy to answer them.

A beautiful finish can only take you so far.
The quality of an Post & Beam frame begins with the timber itself — its strength, suitability, character and how carefully it has been selected for the job.
That’s why we pay so much attention to the material before the real building even begins.
Because when you’re creating something intended to stand for generations, what’s underneath the finish matters far more than people realise.
Well graded and strong structural timbers (Oak, Larch or Douglas Fir) aren’t just something you see. It’s something the building relies on.

There’s no better advertisement for our work than the words of the people we’ve built for.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
From understanding the timber and getting the design right, to communication throughout the project and the final finish — these are the things that matter to us.
So receiving feedback like this from Nell means a great deal.
We’re incredibly proud of the work we produce, but even more proud when our clients are just as happy with the end result.
Planning an oak frame project of your own? We’d love to hear what you have in mind.

When people plan an extension or a new build, they often focus on size.
But one of the biggest transformations comes from something you can't measure in square metres—natural light.
The position of glazing, the height of the roof, the orientation of the building and the way light moves through a space can completely change how a home feels.
A well-designed room doesn't just look beautiful. It feels brighter, calmer and more connected to the outdoors throughout the day.
It's a reminder that great design isn't always about adding more—it's about making better use of what you have.

Every piece of oak we use has a purpose.
Once the main beams and components have been crafted, we're often left with smaller offcuts that are too good to throw away. Rather than letting them go to waste, we cut and split them into firewood.
Throughout the summer, the logs are stacked outside where the warm sun and natural airflow season them ready for winter.
It's a simple process, but one that reflects how we approach every part of our work—making the most of a remarkable natural material and ensuring as little as possible goes to waste.
Because good craftsmanship isn't just about what you build. It's also about respecting the materials you work with.

A look back at one of our bespoke off-grid oak frame homes.
Designed to Passivhaus standards, this project combines traditional oak framing with modern sustainable design. Featuring wood fibre insulation, clay walls, solar panels and a shaded balcony, every element was carefully considered to maximise comfort, minimise energy use and reduce environmental impact.
It's proof that traditional craftsmanship and innovative building methods can work hand in hand to create homes that are not only beautiful, but built for the future.

It's a question we think about on every project.
Not just how a build will look when it's finished—but how it will perform decades from now.
Will the materials age well?
Will the craftsmanship still hold up?
Will the structure still feel timeless?
Building for the future means making the right decisions today.
That's why longevity is at the heart of everything we do.

No two families live the same way, so why should every home be designed the same?
Whether it's an oak-framed extension, a garden room or a complete new build, the best spaces are the ones designed around the people who use them every day.
We believe every project should feel personal—crafted to suit your lifestyle, your property and your vision.
Because a home should never feel off the shelf.
