Custom Timber Frame Designs

A timber home can take many forms, but the only one that matters is the one that's custom tailored to your needs. At Timber Mountain, we take time tested techniques and pair them seamlessly with modern tech to help us get every client exactly what they want. 

​

So why timber? Other than the aesthetic are there really benefits to buying a timber structure over a stick frame dwelling? What are the benefits one over the other?

Aesthetic

A timber-framed building exudes timeless charm with its rustic elegance, showcasing the natural beauty of wood while creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. With handcrafted details and organic aesthetics, it effortlessly blends with its surroundings, offering a captivating visual appeal and a sense of warmth unmatched by modern construction.

Felxibility

While we use timeless tried-and-tested joinery that dates back centuries, we also have the benefit of modern engineering and vision. While traditional timber frames had specific parameters for what will work and what wont, our ability to manufacture stronger laminate beams that blend in seamlessly to the original timbers allow us to push beyond those boundaries, which increases the flexibility of design options usually hampering timber frame designs. 

Durability

Timber homes boasts exceptional durability, thanks to its robust construction and the inherent strength of wood. Built to withstand the test of time, timber frame structures offer long-lasting stability and resilience against various environmental factors. With proper maintenance, these houses can endure for generations, providing a solid and reliable shelter for homeowners.

Value

A timber home offers enduring value, surpassing stick-frame buildings in longevity and resilience. With its sturdy timber construction and exceptional durability, a timber home stands the test of time, retaining its structural integrity and aesthetic appeal for generations. This longevity translates into a wise investment, providing homeowners with a lasting legacy of quality craftsmanship and enduring beauty that enhances property value over time

Strength

A timber frame home is renowned for its remarkable strength, derived from the structural integrity of the wood and the precision of its construction. The solid timber beams and posts form a sturdy framework that can withstand significant loads and stresses over time. This inherent strength ensures the structural stability of the home, offering peace of mind to homeowners and a sense of security that lasts for generations.

Longevity

The oldest timber frame structure in the world is in Tibet and is believed to be almost 1,500 years old. The oldest one in the United States sits in Dedham, Massachusetts and is verified to date back to 1637. While even homes built thirty years ago crumble across the country, you can rely on the constantly increasing value that a time-tested timber frame structure will give to you and your descendants for generations to come.
