Inspiration and advice for your building project
This country has a rich tradition of Oak frame buildings and Martin Silburn Timber Framing Ltd are proud to continue that tradition by hand building custom designed timber frames at the framing yard on the Somerset levels.
Martin Silburn Timber Framing Ltd specialise in the construction of green oak and softwood frames using traditional carpentry techniques.
All frames are custom made to our customers’ requirements, so the frame will be designed to suit your needs and that of the site. Where full planning permission is required Martin Silburn can work with your architect, or can provide you with details of architects and timber frame designers who have a thorough working knowledge of timber frames.
Based in Godney, Somerset, midway between Wells and Glastonbury, the yard overlooks the Somerset levels towards Glastonbury Tor. Martin Silburn Timber Framing Ltd celebrated their tenth anniversary of trading in September 2010 and as well as having many years combined experience in the team of carpenter craftsman, take pride in passing on skills to younger carpenters entering the trade.
