Toms Timber Frames

Garden projects

Pergolas, carports, sheds, shelters and saunas. Outdoor structures in oak and douglas fir, joined the same way as the houses: mortise and tenon, pegged with wooden nails, built to sit outside for a long time.

Carport and shed under clay tiles

A carport and a shed built as one structure under a clay tile roof. The lighting is wired in. I do that work myself, as a qualified electrician.

Pergola over a new terrace

A pergola built against the house, over a terrace laid at the same time. The slatted screen gives privacy from the neighbours.

Shelter for bicycles and bins

An open shelter beside the house. The bikes stay dry and the bins stay out of sight.
