Frame to Finish
Timber frame construction has experienced a revitalization in America in the past few decades. This time-tested and sustainable building practice was brought to this country by European settlers and was used to construct the majority of our nation's historic structures.
If you are interested in antique timbers, repurposing an old barn frame for your needs, or starting from scratch with new frame, our knowledge and passion for timber framing will ensure a finished product you will love. The possibilities are nearly endless.
What Sets Us Apart
Our multidisciplinary team has the depth and breadth of experience to offer a single point of contact for our clients’ entire project.
We are fluent in building and design language of this region going back to the earliest European settlers, so whether a project involves moving an early building or restoring a structure in situ, all the building parts and systems are documented, carefully disassembled and repaired.
With new construction, we combine our knowledge of traditional building practices with the full spectrum of available materials and techniques to make careful selections that optimize longevity, aesthetics, and cost for our clients. We strive to implement quality craftsmanship, modern functionality, and durable, high-end design throughout each project.
We look forward to working with you.
