The Post and Beam Process.


If you are considering a post and beam home, here are some examples of what to expect. Questions? Call Vermont Timber Works @ 802-886-1917, we are happy to help.


This is how it starts. Take your ideas to an architect and get that floor plan going! This floor plan has every thing you need for a single story home. The post and beam layout can be designed from that point. Making sure you LOVE it on paper first.












OK, now is the fun part, watching your timber frame home come together. The 3D renderings are part of our design and engineering stage.
Ready?



The timbers arrive and the bents are put together on the ground, craned into place.
Vermont Timber Works raises quite a few of our post and beam frames.



Careful !!



Watching the post and beam being raised is a wonderful experience. Especially when it is yours.



Gorgeous timbers! (and blue sky of course).



This is what your post and beam frame looks like when we leave. Ready to be finished off by your general contractor and other subcontractors.
