What an incredible company to work with. Joanne, especially was so helpful, friendly and very professional.
We had 4 RSJ oak covers made and 2 fireplace mantles, so by their standards it was a small job, but they were still fantastic and produced the most beautiful work. I would highly recommend this company for any work, big all small. Thanks guys x

Jamie and the team came to our house to do a difficult job. We needed our hall and landing oak panelled floor refurnished. (grade 2 listed built originally in 1690 )This wasn’t easy as it needed real care and attention to detail. The chaps were superb and very careful that they didn’t get dust all over the house. Jamie came back several times to check it and even although it took a lot longer than expected he kept to the price he gave us. A very professional company and one I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others.

We worked with Jamie from Oak By Design on a super project near Wetherby. There was plenty of oak in this design for the team to really show their worth - and they did. The attention to detail was excellent. If anything was not quite how the client wanted it, they were straight back to attend to this. The customer care was superb. We look forward to working with Oak By Design on another project soon.

Four years ago we took the decision to completely gut an old farmhouse and start again with it, we started looking for a supplier of oak to refit all of the internal doors, door casings, skirting and flooring. Our carpenter recommended Oak By Design. He wasn't wrong! All of the oak has been completely top notch. As the old house has settled into it's new skin it has moved and cracked in various places, the only thing that has been stable and unwavering is the oak. The customer service has been superb, with them continuing to supply exactly the same items, with the same quality over the course of 4 years. They even indulged our designs for furniture for our "boot room", with Shoe pigeon holes and a bench which we could store wellies under (as pictured). The doors supplied by them are reassuringly heavy and sturdy, with a proper "thunk" as you close them, cutting off sound from the rest of the house.
There may be other, cheaper suppliers of oak out there, but none with the same level of quality, longevity and customer service as Oak By Design. If you want to do it right (& once!) use these guys.

Fantastic service, very professional and more importantly very very helpful. Joanne was a star to deal with from start to finish and helped us choose both style and colour more than any other company we discussed the project with.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending or using them again

Richard Penny of Oak By Design was really helpful and professional,
and went to great lengths to tailor our oak porch design to my exact requirements despite my keen demands. He responded promptly with advice and clear CAD drawings, and delivered to our agreed timetable, to produce a magnificent porch.

we visited the Oak By Design workshop to discuss our requirements to cover 4 existing RSJs - we got excellent advice from Richard on what works well and how to install the covers. The covers were delivered and we had them installed by a carpenter and they look absolutely fabulous. The quality and finish are excellent. Joanne provided all the support needed and kept us fully informed wrt delivery times etc. Great company to do business with !

Oak By Design have just supplied us with a oak mantelpiece which they prepare from a photo I sent them. To say we were pleased with the end result would be an understatement. Joanne's service was second to none and the product they supplied was fantastic.
I would highly recommend using Oak By Design.
Thanks to Joanne and her team.

We bought an oak beam from Oak by Design, to replace an old mantlepiece over our fireplace. Customer service was fantastic, with a quick and easy ordering process. Unfortunately when the beam arrived it had been damaged in transit. I called them to explain and right away they arranged collection of the damaged beam and ordered a new one. The second beam arrived very quickly and was in perfect condition - it is beautifully crafted and makes a wonderful addition to our living room. Dealing with the damaged beam could have been a real headache, but the whole thing was sorted out so efficiently and professionally that it wasn't a problem at all in the end. I would certainly recommend this company.

It was lovely to work with you on your this and to hear that you're so pleased with the covers and beams, especially after having some previous disappointments with other parts of your project.
We're looking forward to seeing the oak in situ when your project is finished and we get to see the photo's! x
