Preconstructed Oak Triangular Components
Oak has been relied upon
as a robust building
material for many centuries
and has always been
valued for its architectural
magnificence. Today,
using a combination of the
tradition of the past with
cutting edge modern
methods and materials,
we are able to
complement modern
architecture with such
structures. The incorporation of a full or partially vaulted Oak ceiling can be
an enormous benefit to the value of a property, maximising the available area
so that the proportions of the building appear dramatic and enlarged.
Oakmasters can supply and install King Post, Queen Post and Raised Collar
or medieval style trusses as preconstructed triangular components, ready to
be lifted into place on site.

Remmers Restoration at Southampton Row
Remmers recently gave the façade
of the Grange Hotel in Holborn a
facelift. Remmers Restoration
Mortar was selected to repair
damaged stone areas and was
colour matched to minimise the
visual impact. The properties of
Restoration Mortar make it ideal for
repairing stone structures as it can
be produced in virtually any colour
and strength to match your stone.
After repairs the surfaces received a
light coating of Historic Grout
Scumble, a semi-translucent silicone
coating with fillers for texture which
masks repairs and waterproofs the
façade for the future.

shade sails and tensile
