The Enduring Beauty of Timber
Timber Frame Construction - also
known as Post & Beam - has existed
for millennia. Large posts are connected to heavy beams by
mortise &
tenon and pegged to hold the timbers in place. Thknk of the "half
timbered" houses of Elizabethan England which have stood for centuries.
This is not log home
construction. Timber frame homes can be finished
out in any style looking like an
elegant townhouse, a colonial cape or
saltbox, or an expansive mountain
chalet.
Design your own home or browse
through plans already available. We
work closely with architects who
specialize in timber frame construction.
Additionally, as an independent
builder/dealer for Woodhouse
Timberframe Company, we
encourage you to visit their website for
additional information.
Combining a classic building
structure with architectural panels is also very
energy efficient. Other
options can include radiant heat, ductless cooling,
heated floors, energy saving house
fans, solar shingles, and wind turbines.
We have our own energy consultant
to help you develop a plan to fit your
lifestyle energy requirements.
We will also be happy to have you
browse our fixture catalogues to add
those finishing personal touches to
the interior of the home to suit your taste.
