What Are They?
Oak Framed extensions are, put very simply, extensions with natural oak frames. They’re used in the mass-market to add space to your home, or link certain areas of your house together more easily, and so forth. They do (like all other forms of extensions) require planning permissions but add a little something ‘extra’ to your home.
What Makes Oak Framed Extensions Special?
The unique thing about Oak Framed Extensions is the effect that they have on the homes where they are used. This effect is a stunning, natural beauty which is emphasized by the spacious outlook they are able to give. This effect is achieved through combining oak framed rooms having a very natural look, to the design of allowing a lot of light into the room, meaning it appears very spacious and natural.
As well as this, oak framed extensions are quick to build, they can come in prefabricated formats, they are relatively cheap when you compare them to alternative materials, they are long-lasting and they are very robust when built and maintained in the correct way. They are also very eco friendly and they relatively easy to heat as oak is a very good conductor of heat.
Oak Framed Extensions really are very eco-friendly, despite what some people might think. The first thing that enters everyone’s minds when they hear ‘timber frame’ is deforestation, but the reality is that, while it is an issue, it isn’t a consequence of UK construction. Timber is completely renewable and is very much a non-toxic building material. What’s best of all in this regard? It’s a carbon-neutral form of construction, even when transportation has been taken into account.
