The Wye Oak Story

 

  Wye Oak was established in 2005.  Before then I learned my trade from many Restoration & Timber Framing firms, picking up a wealth of skills and knowledge along the way.   My family moved to South Wales in 1989 where I finished my apprenticeship with a well known family firm in Hereford.  In 1991 I moved to a Restoration company in South Wales where I had the great pleasure of working on some of the Finest Buildings in Britain, Windsor Castle, Hereford Cathedral, Carrey Cennen castle to name just a few. In 1997 my working partner to be & I moved on to a large firm in Hereford, where we worked on small but very important buildings, Kenilworth Castle, Lower Brockhampton, Gate House, Whitley Court, Boat House etc.  In 2001 we made a move and set up a parternership in restoration and timber framing where we had many satisfied customers including a very well known timber framing company in Hereford, where we built and erected their building.  In 2005, I made the decision to go it alone and haven’t looked back.  Now, I have a small number of skilled craftsmen assisting me to make some of the highest quality frames that you will have the pleasure to see.  I personally pride myself on quality and honesty and will deliver you with a dream building.  My love of timber and traditional skills lets you have just what you want in any style with a common sense approach.
