Oak porches, gazebos and garages for Somerset

Somerset's hamstone villages, Levels, market towns and Bath-fringe properties provide varied settings for bespoke oak structures. Southern Oak designs porches, gazebos, garages and garden rooms around the individual home, plot and intended use.

Hamstone, render, brick, thatch and traditional roof coverings can all influence the proportions and finish of an oak building. We design around the existing property, with frame production coordinated through our specialist sawmill partner and installation through experienced specialist teams where included.

Oak framed buildings we build in Somerset

Every project is designed around your home, your plot and your planning position.

Planning in Somerset

Local planning considerations

Somerset includes the Quantock Hills, Mendip Hills and Blackdown Hills National Landscapes, alongside many conservation areas and listed properties. Planning responsibility varies across Somerset Council, Bath & North East Somerset Council and North Somerset Council, so the relevant authority and property-specific permitted-development position should be checked.
