Timber
Craft Room
On this project we transformed the old granite structure of a barn into a charming timber craft room.
The exterior features vertical treated hit and miss board cladding, preserving a rustic, textured look, while the roof is covered with traditional corrugated sheets.
Inside, the space is fully timber clad, creating a warm, inviting environment ideal for weaving and spinning.
The combination of sturdy granite, natural timber, and open, airy design provides both functionality and character, making it a perfect creative retreat.
Timber
Railway Sleeper
On this project we designed and created a new garden space.
The main feature was the use of traditional timber railway sleepers to face the retaining walls, blending durability with natural charm.
The structure incorporates paved steps that lead down to a sunken, paved area, creating an inviting setting for entertaining family and friends.
The combination of timber, stone, and careful landscaping provides a warm, functional outdoor space that balances style and practicality.
Timber
Log Store
On this project we extended an existing log woodstore to create four functional bays.
The sides were reinforced, and the cladding was replaced with new, ventilated timber to ensure airflow while maintaining durability.
The roof covering was removed, and new treated cladding was applied.
The timber was left unpainted, allowing it to naturally weather and grey over time, blending seamlessly with its surroundings and creating a rustic, timeless aesthetic.
Timber
Bespoke Gazebo
On this project we designed and built a bespoke treated timber gazebo in the corner of a garden.
We wanted to create a dedicated space for family enjoyment and entertaining.
Privacy was achieved with battened panels at the rear, which allow light to filter through while maintaining a sense of seclusion.
The feeling of being cocooned is enhanced by carefully designed side railings and a roof structure cut precisely to size.
The gazebo sits on a raised paved platform, providing a sturdy and elevated base that complements the overall design.
Timber
Shed Refurb
On this project we were commissioned to refurbish this garden shed, giving it both renewed functionality and a refreshed appearance.
The original timber cladding was removed and replaced with new treated timber cladding.
New gallows were installed to support the roof structure and enhance the shed’s overall appearance.
The old felt roof and under sheets were removed, and new OSB boards were applied as a solid base before covering with roofing felt and a durable steel roofing sheet.
Internally, the shed was lined with OSB boards, allowing for the addition of timber shelving for practical storage.
The exterior was finished with a decorative treatment to harmonize with the main house
Timber
Raised Beds
On this project we were commissioned to create stepped raised beds, accompanying steps, and a seating area.
The structure was built using treated timber posts set securely in the ground, with treated timber joists forming the framework of the beds.
To protect the timber from soil moisture, the beds were fully lined to prevent water penetration.
The exterior of all the treated timber was then clad with durable Siberian larch, giving the project a clean, natural finish that complements the garden setting.
The Siberian larch was used so that it would blend in and match the same larch we had used to partially clad the main house.
"Mark built a custom table for our studio, and he got it exactly right. He worked to spec, suggested a few tweaks that made the design more functional, and delivered something genuinely solid. The build quality is excellent and it’s clear the table will hold up for a long time. If you need precise, reliable carpentry, Mark is a safe bet".
