Beams

Nothing complements a fireplace better than a natural oak beam. We can locally source and prepare freshly sawn oak beams for use as mantles, upstands, lintels, shelves or architectural features. From a rustic finish to a sleek modern dressed timber – tell us your ideas and we can make them happen!

Please find following examples of the types of beams we can supply:

Off the Saw Beams
Description
Off the Saw - As the name implies beams are supplied straight from the saw for finishing as desired by the customer.
Square Edge Beams
Description
Square Edge - Beam faces are planed and sanded and edges are square.
Chamfered Edge Beams
Description
Chamfered Edge - Faces are planed & sanded and a narrow flat surface cut into the edge of the beam.
Hand-Hewn Edge Beam
Description
Hand-Hewn Edge - Faces are planed & sanded and edges are dressed to a random wavy edge for a more informal look.
Natural Bark Face Beam
Description
Natural Bark Face - One face of the beam is the outside of the tree, resulting in a wavy, knotty face. The bark can either be removed entirely or partly left on for a very natural unique piece.
Gnarled & Knotty Beam
Description
Gnarled & Knotty - One face of the beam is the outside of the tree with the majority of bark left on and can be characterised with large knot features & sometimes even branches.

Why not team up our solid wood beams with a natural stone hearthstone - choose from our range of slates and flagstones and we can cut to size for a perfect fit!
