Timber Framing is the centuries old craft of using timbers, traditional joinery techniques and wooden pegs to create structures for use as homes, outbuildings and space for retail and light industrial applications.
Timber framing came into use more than 600 years ago. This construction method was widely used in Northern Europe before being brought by settlers to America.
Timber framing combines the beauty of handcrafted timbers with time honored building techniques to create unique custom spaces for living.
Timber frames are constructed without hardware using only wooden pegs.
All of the joinery done by WRTF is completed by our team of skilled craftsmen at our facility in the Green Mountains of Vermont.
Our craftsmen shape and finish timbers in our joinery shop. Timbers are carefully numbered and shipped to the construction site. Frames are assembled and erected by our crews on site.
At WRTF, we see the process of building a timber frame as one that starts and finishes with our client. We work closely with our clients to determine what they really want in a timber frame home.
The flexibility of timber frame construction coupled with our experience and skill offers our clients the opportunity to enjoy a truly unique handcrafted home.
