Hi all,
I have been renovating my 160 year old granite cottage and I have found a number of wooden lintels that have rotten and need replacing. I want to replace with wood rather that steel or concrete. Some of the lintels also support timber floor joists. I called a saw mill and they can supply the cut lintels in green oak at approximately £15 per lintel.
My question is: will I have any problems using green oak?
Thanks
