Has anyone used them? https://www.monarchoak.co.uk/

They have been helpful so far and prices are competitive. However one (more expensive) competitor has suggested their beam spec is ‘flimsy’…biased,maybe.

Main beams are 150mm sq oak & as it’s 6*6m, will come with full structural calcs, so it should be fine. And seems to align with other suppliers.

I’ve searched and found one other poster who seemed happy with them but that was from 2015 I think.

Just wondering if anyone has used them recently as they don’t have many online reviews

The guy saying they were flimsy - what were his beam sizes?

I have a 200 square holding my house up, structural engineers comment was “ That’ll support a battleship”

Dried English Oak, not green.

That was my view from speaking to them. Planning to take a trip down in the next couple of weeks to take a proper look. Have you had a garage from them yourself?
