Events
We love getting out and about to showcase our work and meet anyone embarking on their own project. Meeting us at one of our shows is the best way to talk us through your plans, get expert advice and gain inspiration for your oak framed house, extension, renovation, cabin, annex or other outbuilding.
As well as shows across the UK, Carpenter Oak run a number of open house and other events throughout the year, which have proven extremely popular with anyone wanting to see a structural timber-framed house up close and speak to the homeowners and the people behind the build.
Here’s where you’ll find us over the coming months, if you want to make an appointment to meet us at any of these events, email hello@carpenteroak.com.
