Rustic Oak Trusses

We are able to fabricate trusses in reclaimed oak, air-dried oak-like these, or green oak. We can give an accurate costing from the designs given or we can design trusses ourselves and give detailed 3D mock-ups of what will be created.

As with all our oak framing the fabrication is carried out traditionally using recognised oak frame joints with oak pegs. we are also able to include detailing like stop chamfers on the components as you can see here.

Please feel free to contact us with any enquiries.
