Oak Cladding

Oak weatherboarding is an attractive way to finish the exterior of both new and old buildings. Oak has been used for hundreds of years to protect houses from the elements. Of all the species available Oak is the most durable and therefore has the longest lifespan potential.

Oak cladding is typically available in square-edge, feather-edge and waney-edge boards in dimensions up to 300mm wide and lengths up to 4.0m.

Square-edge boards are simple 25mm sawn planks available in a range of widths. Square-edge boards can be overlapped to form horizontal cladding or used vertically. Waney-edge cladding is a very traditional style of cladding created by overlapping boards sliced straight from the tree. Each board has one waney edge (with bark on) and one square edge.

Feather-edge boards are formed by sawing a rectangular section at an angle, resulting in two sections tapered across the width. Feather-edge boards are laid horizontally. Oak cladding is supplied green (fresh sawn) with a sawn finish, cut from logs harvested in well-managed woodlands. Various widths and thicknesses are available by request.

Oak Beams

All of our Oak comes from renewable sources of Oak timber. Much of timber carries the FSC certification, which is only awarded for forests and woodlands that are managed according to strict standards of environmental principles.

We have been supplying oak beams for many years and have a thorough knowledge of the different methods of sawing and production as well the end application. We are capable of producing sawn Oak beams up to 9 metres in length and in any dimension achievable from the log. The beams can be supplied straight or tapered. We can supply specific curved components, shaped wind and wall bracing, queen posts and arch bracing.

We are happy to quote for any size and to supply a grade tailor-made to your requirements or project.
