Timber Frame Pergola by the Pool

Timber frame construction and traditional joinery created this wood pergola. Adding to the already beautiful landscape, just past the pool. NICE!

The Pergola will have vines and flowers growing on it soon I'm sure. Great job Vermont Timber!

Beautifully done douglas fir glulam beams...

Vermont Timber Works as a rule usually works with natural timber...BUT sometimes a glulam is needed. For example on our Lake Taghkanic Project. The majority of the design is in natural Douglas Fir Timbers, planed and chamfered with clear poly. The arches are glulams and will coordinate very nicely.
Take a close look, you can see the lamination lines. Traditional joinery can be used on glulams, mortise and tenon with hardwood pegs.

A Beautiful Timber Frame House Addition by VTW.

Located in Darien, CT and looking to add on to their 1790's renovated tavern home. A timber frame addition from Vermont Timber Works made perfect sense.

This timber frame addition features hand hewn native white pine timbers and traditional mortise and tenon joinery. Here is another view of the raising, great job guys!


We assemble the timber frame bents on the ground and crane them into place. Bracing and placing connectors, girts & joists as needed.
Looking down from the balcony and up from the timber frame living room, the warmth of the hand hewn timbers is apparent.
Even the kitchen is breathtaking. Each timber hand crafted and hand hewn for an authentic look. This timber frame house addition looks like it's been there all along. Just want the clients were hoping for.
