Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need planning permission for an oak-framed garage?

In many cases, our garages fall under permitted development rights, meaning planning permission may not be required. However, we always recommend checking with your local planning authority to confirm specific regulations based on your location and garage size.

What maintenance does my oak-framed garage require?

Our high-quality green oak is naturally durable and requires minimal maintenance. Over time, oak develops a beautiful silvered patina, adding to its timeless charm. We recommend periodic gutter cleaning and minor treatments for joinery elements if applicable.

What is included in my garage kit?

Each kit includes everything you need to build the oak-framed structure, most importantly all the pre-cut, precision-engineered oak components, along with detailed installation instructions. 

How long will my garage last?

Our garages are built to last for generations, with Q-Mark equivalent products ensuring a minimum 60-year lifespan when properly maintained. The natural strength of oak ensures long-term durability against the elements.
