      Where would you use a feature truss?

      Porches & Entrances – Porches are diverse in design meaning they’re are so many ways they can be shaped and formed. Whether its of something small, like a door canopy or small oak porch or something on an entirely larger scale for an entrance hall, with glazed walls, traditional framing and feature trusses to catch your guests’ eyes on arrival to your house. If you have any drawings or a rough sketch please do get in touch with our design team and we will go through your ideas.

      Garden Rooms – Nothing adds Luxurious and grandeur your garden quite like a garden room designed with the addition of exposed timber, glazing and feature trusses. The elegance and beauty this will bring to your garden will have you spending the entire summer in your garden room. The garden room designs can range from conservatories or orangeries however it’s the roof structure which separates these two types of designs. We love to embark on a new challenge – therefore, if you want something different/your own design but need help on designs, contact us and our design team will help you make your garden room a reality

      Pool Builds – Probably the only type of building that opens itself up to allow the use of large scale feature trusses and exposed post and beam frames due to its vast open ceiling space. The value added to your property will sky rocket if a feature truss is used

      TESTIMONIALS

      Thank you – The help you gave us was truly amazing – you said yes to what seemed an impossible request in a heartbeat and what a difference it made – The house looked beautiful and we’re all so proud of what everyone achieved – the family were utterly overwhelmed by the sheer force of goodwill that everyone showed them
      Gordon Whistance, In House Designer | BBC DIY SOS
      Fraser we are really happy with the finish and look. Actually the Abodo cladding is main thing people remark and compliment about the house, we’ve certainly been spreading the word about you guys and the Abodo cladding.
      Westley Dowdles, ABODO Customer
      Just a short note of thanks, I received my order yesterday as planned. Derek was very helpful and cheery, as has everyone I spoke to in the company.
      A pleasure to work with you and 5 star service.
      Colin Gilmer, Happy Customer
      It was an easy choice to move to using Glenalmond Timber’s floor joist system. It gives an improved specification for many aspects of the build, including acoustics, ease of installation, lack of bounce in the floor as well of course as cost effectiveness. A great all-round product, it’s a lot more than just a joist and the level of service from Fraser has been a joy. Whenever you deal with people such as that, the business process becomes a pleasure
      Steven Streets, Technical Manager | Muir Group
      We were looking for larch cladding with a coating specified by the architect & client, although this was not a standard finish used by Glenalmond they went out of their way to source it, from the moment I contacted them they could not have been more helpful, we will definitely be back in touch when doing our next cladding job
      Keith Sim, Sunnyside Construction Ltd
      …I have been a joiner for over 25 years and due to the straightness and quality machining it was the best cladding (Abodo) I have ever worked with…
      Mark Williams, Happy Abodo Customer
      The larch cladding we got from you is outstanding. We absolutely love the smooth riven effect. Thanks again for supplying the cladding
      Adam Turner, Happy Customer

      Thanks for the impromptu tour on Friday. I was very impressed with your set-up there, great to see yours and Martin’s enthusiasm for the business and getting quality products out into the market so we can build with quality materials

      Angus MacDonald, Morgan Sindall
      I just wanted to say a big thank you to you and your team for my order. We received it this morning and I am very impressed with the quality of the cladding and also how well it was all packaged. I would certainly recommend you to anyone who may be looking for cladding in the future.
      Steve Holyland, Happy Customer
