Working with Architects

We have extensive experience of working alongside architects as the oak frame specialist partner, and have done so on many projects including individual dwellings and commercial schemes across the UK and abroad.

Project Collaboration

We have been fortunate enough to collaborate with a wide range of independent architects, architectural designers and main contractors over the years – supplying a diverse range of bespoke oak frames to help realise their vision and provide added value and support as the oak frame specialist.

Our specialism is oak framing; and we are able to meet both contemporary and tradtional design briefs. As a construction company, we also fully understand the complete process and how important it is to take responsibility for how the oak frame will work within the entire project and deliver the best end result.

what our clients say

We have always wanted a Border Oak House!
We needed a family home that was also a working farmhouse, and would be adaptable as our children grew and our working lives changed.

More about Border Oak

Border Oak started as a tiny acorn of an idea over 45 years ago…

Over the passing decades we have pioneered the revival of oak framing; introducing and mastering many new construction concepts, processes and designs along the way. We have gradually and organically built a brand that is instantly recognisable and known for its craftsmanship, quality and innovation.
