Hi and welcome to my blog! Through my blog I plan to share some of my current projects and show you how oak framed buildings are made and constructed. Oak is a beautiful, strong and sustainable material. If you're thinking about using green oak for a new construction within your home I hope my blog will be of assistance to you. By following my blog you'll be able to see how I work and my level of detailed craftsmanship and finish. I hope you enjoy reading my blog and should you wish to discuss any project you have in mind please contact me for an informal chat about your plans. I will be very happy to help you in anyway I can. Kind regards, Rob

Oak Garden Room - 2nd stage completion

Posted by Robert Fathers on Sunday, October 16, 2011, In : Oak Garden Room

The second stage of the build is almost complete. Since my last up-date, we've insulated and tiled the roof, and installed the garden room double doors. First fix electrics in place and floor almost done. All glass windows will be installed this week and flooring and internals then progressed to final fix stage.

The garden room is starting to look the part, making a great statement and additional living space to this home.

I have a couple of projects I'm currently undertaking I wish to share with you. I'll show you each stage of construction so you can see each project as it develops.

I cut and work the frame on site throughout all stages of it's development, this gives my client a real sense of involvement, understanding and appreciation of the work I undertake. I believe it's really important to involve client's throughout the project build, ...
