Add timeless craftsmanship to your project with Oak Cladding.
British oak cladding not only adds a touch of natural beauty to any structure but also offers exceptional durability and strength. Our team of skilled craftsmen meticulously select and work with the finest British oak, ensuring that each cladding piece is expertly crafted to showcase the wood’s inherent character.
How often have you heard tell of Britain’s dependence on Oak? We all know the history, Oak built our past, but what of the future? British forestry depends on the responsible and commercial use of Oak to secure its future. Oak is the ultimate form of carbon capture both as a living growing tree and a long-lasting loved home. Land owners will continue to plant and nurture oak woodland for future generations so long as there are responsible buyers using it.
Profiled oak cladding gives a stylish and contemporary look to your home, outbuilding or commercial building. We are able to offer thousands of different profiles because every order is custom made and every customer is unique.
Whether you are looking to cover the exterior of a house, outbuilding or shopping village, the flush, neat interlocking of Oak boards gives uniformity to an organic material.
Profiled oak cladding must be made from air dried oak, as the longer the time spent in stick the more naturally occurring tensions are released. Resulting in more stable oak.
Probably the most recognisable and traditional form of cladding. Feather edge cladding creates a charming, rustic and durable finish to any building. It sits comfortably in rural locations and brings a fabulous contrast to a more modern or urban setting.
Typically 200mm wide and 20-10mm thick, but is also available in other thicknesses with or without a rebate. Because we cut it to order, anything is possible.
All of our oak feather edge cladding is cut from from British Oak logs. Our cladding is supplied whilst wet and seasons in situ on your home, outbuilding or commercial building.
Tongue and Groove Profiled Cladding is one of the most popular choices, tongue and groove profiled cladding board interlock the to create a flat surface, many of the profile options highlight the joins with shadow gaps and chamfers.
HalfLap Profiled Cladding is a traditional solution where boards overlap each other by rebates cut on the edges. It is more robust than tongue and groove, but requires more fixings per square meter.
ShipLap Profiled Cladding is a more ornate half lap with various detail options and a longer lip for additional weather protection and partial secret fixing.
We believe it is our responsibility to make maximum use of every magnificent oak tree that we bring into our yard. Harvesting a tree that was planted by our great-great grandparents’ generation which has now reached maturity is an honour.
Each saw log is selected for the job, considering length, girth, knots and efficiency. Not only do we produce beams, we take boards form the outside which, grade dependent, are used for cladding, joinery or flooring thereby maximising the yield from what might be a 120 year old tree.
We are proud that nothing is wasted. Only the bark and slabbing boards, pieces too small or rotten knot pockets which can’t be used are chipped to fire our biomass boiler, heating the workshop, office and kiln.
