New Forest Oak

Bespoke oak structures made in Hampshire

New Forest Oak produces made-to-order oak structures from its workshop in Hampshire. The company states that each build is tailored to the property and can be made to fully bespoke sizes. Its output covers porches and canopies, pergolas and shelters, and garages and buildings, with a product range that also includes oak garage kits and oak porch kits.

The firm describes a 20-year trade legacy and presents its work as combining traditional techniques with sustainably sourced timber. Standard specification across its builds includes planed beams, chamfered edges, traditional mortise and tenon joinery, and an oil finish.

Product lines: porches, pergolas and garages

The catalogue is organised around three main families. Porches and canopies are positioned as entrance structures suited to different property types. Pergolas and shelters are presented as outdoor living and entertaining spaces, including a model called the Timeless Solid Oak Pergola. Garages and buildings include oak garage kits and larger oak-framed structures such as car ports, which feature among the projects described by customers.

Fitting options from kit to complete package

New Forest Oak sets out four levels of involvement for a project:

• Kit form: the structure is delivered as a kit with instructions and the necessary components for assembly.
• Supply and assembly: the company handles full assembly, including studwork, cladding, roofing, joinery and glazing.
• Complete package: the company covers every aspect of the project, from fitting the frame to roof tiling and lead work.
• Maintenance: services after installation intended to help the oak structure last.

How a project is commissioned

The company outlines a three-step process. The first step is to make contact by phone or email with requirements, ideally including dimensions and a photo or sketch. The second is to confirm dimensions and design preferences, receive a quote and book a fitting date, at which point an estimated completion date is provided. The third is installation, which the company describes as handled from delivery through to completion by its customer service team.

Materials and construction details

New Forest Oak refers to the use of English oak and green oak in its range. The specification it highlights for its structures includes planed beams, chamfered edges, mortise and tenon joinery and an oil finish. The site also lists technical resources such as oak quality requirements, canopy assembly instructions and truss options, aimed at buyers and installers.

Local partnerships and customer feedback

The company states that it sponsors Fix Radio and has an advertising partnership with Southampton Football Club. Its website displays a set of customer reviews, mostly rated five stars, describing fitted porches, a matching oak canopy, a double car port, a luxury pergola and a garden shelter for a pizza oven. The reviews refer to professional installation, bespoke measurement changes and delivery on the agreed date. These are individual accounts rather than an aggregate rating verified by an independent platform.

Promotional offer on the Timeless pergola

At the time of writing this profile, the website advertised a complimentary Ninja Pizza Oven with the purchase of the Timeless Solid Oak Pergola, described as a limited-time offer. The same page presents the pergola as a space for outdoor dining and family gatherings.
