New residential construction is on the rise!

According to the US Department of Commerce, New residential housing construction is on the rise!

If you are breaking ground soon, why not be kind to the environment?  You can easily build a "green" house using a reclaimed timber framed post and beam barn, and often do it for less money than you would pay for "new" construction. Not only are the materials time-strengthened, but the exposed beams display the character and history of its original era.

We are currently dismantling this 50' X 80' Hand Hewn, Primarily Oak Timber frame c.1895. The structure boasts an amzing 35' feet at the center ridge! Post and beams are hand pegged and feature Mortise & Tenon joinery. The dimensions can be easily modified to suit your project. As part of the price package, all components of this structure will be treated for infestation, pressure-washed and cleaned, and clearly labeled and identified. Reasonable modifications to the structure to fit your personal building plans can also be included -- please call to inquire. We do offer erection services for an additional fee; engineering and architectural services are also available.

You can see what a completed timber frame conversion looks like right here on my blog!
