Paul Slemmings, Carpenter Oak Ltd

The repair and replacement of the frames for three listed cruck framed cottages destroyed by fire in Hampshire. One of the cruck frames was required to be repaired in situ in order to leave the surrounding building fabric as intact as possible. This challenging but very rewarding job was incredibly tight for space and required half of the road to be closed in the centre of the village for 2 years and counting.
