Reasons To Choose Oak Over Other Options For Garages

When it comes to building frames, Oak is the go to wood which is trusted by centuries. But why? Why are they used in Suffolk cart lodges, garages and other building frames? Let’s find out.

It is simple

Oak framed buildings are so simple to construct. It is a simple case of fitting the frame back together on site following the constructional drawings provided. The constructional drawings are created so that any builder or carpenter are able to read them and follow them exactly, ensuring each of our structures is completed exactly to our specification. Depending on the size of your building, it could be erected in just few days.

Extremely favourable

Timber buildings are favourable in areas of with great scenic natural beauty, conservation areas, and many other planning offices because of the sympathetic nature of their appearance. They are far less harsh to the surrounding areas than a brick or stone building, and also an affordable option.

Oak is versatile

There is absolutely no doubt that oak framed buildings are extremely versatile. They can be easily adapted to suit anybody’s needs. They are capable of  achieving any desired design and style by enclosing the structure, leaving it a blank canvas for an internal fit out of your choice.

Environmentally friendly

Oak framed building has less impact on the environment than a lot of other alternative buildings. This may sound strange, but our timbers are sourced only from responsibly managed woodlands and trees are a natural material, fully renewable and have the least impact on the environment when the forests are managed correctly. Many other materials needed for building are manufactured in huge factories who burn tonnes and tonnes of fossil fuels every day, damaging our ozone layer.
