air dried oak beams

Air dried oak beams are machine-sawn and straight. They have had no prior use and can be re-cut to specified dimensions. The longer these beams have been air dried the more stable and less prone to movement and cracking they become.

These can be purchased in their raw weathered state; alternatively, we also offer a full preparation service which includes cleaning, chamfering and waxing of the beams ready for installation.

Reclaimed oak beams have had a previous use and have three advantages: they are dry and stable therefore less prone to any movement; the tone of the oak has matured to a rich highly desirable colour; and they have real character with knots, twists and evidence of their previous lives.

fire place oak beams

We hold a very good stock of pre-finished oak sections suitable for fireplaces or to be used as mantels over open apertures. Fireplace beams can also be produced to specified dimensions. They come in a variety of finishes but the majority have a medium brown, warm honey coloured wax, which brings out the texture of the oak.
