Our timber carports provide convenient covered parking for your car and the simple, yet elegant structure blends into its surroundings.
An Olson carport provides cover for your car and can be constructed from either oak or treated softwood. The beauty of this style of timber building is it leaves a view open and light able to reach beyond where a traditional garage may be too overpowering.
Car ports require less space and free-standing options have fewer planning implications and are available in various styles and sizes to suit your driveway.
With solid support posts and our signature handmade curved bracing cut from either treated FSC certified treated softwood or timeless oak, an Olson carport is built to look great for many years to come.
Roof covering options vary from lightweight, low maintenance Onduline to stunning natural cedar shingles or traditional tiles to match surrounding properties. Support posts are raised off the ground by traditionally shaped saddle stones and timber supports can be left to naturally weather or stained in situ as desired.
Visually appealing, a carport offers a cost-effective solution to keeping your vehicles protected from the elements all year round. Built to last, we guarantee the workmanship on all our timber buildings for 5 years.
From one single bay carport to a multi-bay carport with internal garden storage unit or workshop, arranged in any combination or layout, we can build to your design.
Our Olson carports are available in different specifications that are designed suit your every budget and requirement. From OTB 2, which has a high level of standard specification option with Onduline roofing, to OTB 3 which has with a variety of additional features such as; increased height for taller vehicles, oak headers and curved bracing and heavier timbers for tiled roofing.
Our timber buildings are available with a range of roofing options. Below are the different types of roofing material that you can choose between. Most of our standard building specifications include Onduline or are finished ready for tiling by a roofing specialist.
Available in several colours, these corrugated sheets are made from recycled fibres that are then saturated with bitumen under controlled pressure and heat conditions. The result is a uniform, hardwearing roof backed by a 15-year manufacturers guarantee. The colours are impregnated into the material so do not require maintenance. The only thing you need to do is keep the leaves off and clear the gutters. This is our standard roof for stables as it has the ability to deaden the sound of rain.
Many of our timber buildings are available with a choice of cladding as well as a number of internal lining options for walls and ceilings. Depending upon the specification you choose, some will be standard and some will be available for an additional cost.
Although a carport is usually open on all sides, we are able to enclose the rear and/or side of the carport should you, for example, need some additional shelter from the prevailing wind and weather. We frame and clad the wall in a choice of pressure-treated weatherboard or shiplap. If you need more sides enclosed, take a look at our carriage houses.
An upgrade from our standard OSB boarding, ply brings a smart and stylish interior finish that is well suited to studios and offices as well as workshops or stables. Providing structural rigidity as well as aesthetics you can leave the ply bare, paint or plasterboard over it.
Our timber buildings are built to order, so we can incorporate lots of different features and fittings to create your perfect design. Depending upon the specification you choose, some will be standard and some will be available for an additional cost.
It is all too easy to skip past the need to deal with run-off water from the roof of a timber building. Depending upon the roof configuration, many of our buildings include half-round plastic guttering to the front, however we also offer the option to fit guttering and downpipes to the rear pitch as well.
