Timber framing companies are not all the same. You'll need to narrow in on which timber framer is best suited to your needs. At Vermont Timber Works we offer hand crafted quality, traditional joinery and custom designs, this may or may not be what you are looking for. Vermont Timber Works focuses on the timber frame only. No sip panels or conventional framing included, no kit homes or pre-engineered package deals. Again, this may be or may not be what you would like.
- DO have a budget and feel free to discuss it with your timber framer.
Everyone has a budget and it needs to be discussed. The
timber frame company you choose should be a company that you feel comfortable with. At Vermont Timber Works we want our clients to know that we will do our best for them. Whether they have a large or small project or just need a few decorative beams. Our reputation depends on this.
- Don't assume you are getting traditional joinery, not all timber framing companies offer it (or do it well).
Traditional Joinery: Mortise and Tenon Joinery with Hardwood Pegs. Dove Tails, Shoulder Joints and more. If you need Steel Joinery (or just like the look of it) not to worry, at Vermont Timber Works we offer this also.
A reputable timber framer will understand and offer referrals to you. It may be viewing a timber frame that is in your area. It may be talking with a home owner or builder that has worked with them or has a similar project. Heavy Timber Construction is an investment and at Vermont Timber Works we have links to public timber frame projects right on our web site, please go take a look.
- Don't forget to call Vermont Timber Works, to find out if we would be a good match for your timber frame project. Delivery Nationwide. 802-886-1917
