David Taylor Traditional Timber Framing

Cutting frame

Traditional framing in Green Oak and other quality timbers

I'm a self employed timber framer based in Somerset. Work is generally for regular customers, by recommendation or for other contractors. I carry out a range of work associated with timber frame buildings, these include.

The latest building

Nether Valley Farm, Sherborne

A new 4 bay garage in Oak and Douglas Fir, with Cedar cladding. As you can see there is no problem keeping 2m distance here.
