About us

We are a family run business based in Lincolnshire. With over 30 years' experience across our team we can talk you through any aspect of your traditional timber framed project.

All our frames are built using sustainably sourced timbers, and held together with traditional joints and pegs. You will find no glue in our frames!

Whether you are looking for a porch to brighten up the front of your home, an extension to an existing property, or a full timber frame for a new build or conversion, we can help. From bridges, to summer houses, and log stores to carports you name it we have done it all.

All our frames are constructed in our workshop in Lincolnshire. We then bring the frame in a kit form, and build it up on site. This minimises the disruption to your home.

Pre construction Design

Whether you have full architectural plans, or nothing but a dream, we can work with you to create the perfect design.

Building the frame

Once we have settled on the design we order the timbers. We are currently working on a 6-8 week lead time so please ensure you give us plenty of notice if you have a specific deadline. Once the timber is delivered we get the full frame constructed at our workshops.

On site construction

Once constructed in the workshop we come and build the frame up on site.

To give you a concept of time, we can spend 4 weeks manufacturing a garden room in our workshop, and have the main frame up in a day on site.

Surrounding trades

From groundworks to plastering, chances are your project will require further trades than just the timber frame. If it is a service we do not offer, we can recommend someone from our strategic supply chain, or work with your own choice of tradespeople.

Project management

If you are looking for someone to take control of your full project from start to finish, please talk to us regarding our project management service.

Sustainability

At Top Barn Timber Frames we pride ourselves on making the right choices for our planet. This is demonstrated in our commitment to have 100% of our energy coming from renewable sources.

Working with timbers we understand we are using a natural resource. This is what makes timber frames a more natural and sustainable form of construction. To ensure we give back with regards to what we take from the planet, all our timbers are procured from sustainable sources, ensuring trees are being replanted in line with what is used.

In addition to this we work with the reduce – reuse – recycle policy.

All timbers are ordered inline with our projects, we don’t stock huge amounts at our workshop. Offcuts from our frames are used to create the pegs that hold your frames together. Offcuts unsuitable for pegs, and the waste wood from the peg making all goes into the biomass boiler to produce sustainable heating for our barn conversion and offices. Shavings produced in the workshop are given to the village for horse bedding. In addition to our renewable heating scheme, all of our electricity onsite is procured from 100% renewable sources.
