Post and Beam Warmth

Post and Beam Construction adds a feeling of warmth, don't you think so? Traditional joinery and rustic timber beams are a favorite in New England and beyond.

Just incase you need a little extra warmth this winter, maybe Ruby will let you borrow her new blanket? Or....maybe not.

Vermont Timber Works custom designs each project to suit the clients needs. Give a call to discuss your post and beam home, barn or building. We would love to be involved!

Post and Beam Construction in February in Vermont? Of Course.

In the snow? Of course!

The snow banks at Vermont Timber Works are much higher than in the above picture...and we are getting more snow. (We do not need any more snow)! The guys have been out working in this lovely weather, take a look. Some timber trusses and cupolas are just to big to be assembled in our shop.

Like this timber frame cupola in rough sawn hemlock timber for the Ferrisburg Town Hall Project. Fully assembled in our front door yard, it was great entertainment for Sue and I.

Loaded up and ready to go. Great job guys! It was very cold and windy that day. Below we have some of the Spruce Peak Custom Timber Trusses, 52ft long in douglas fir creating an 80ft span!
What do you think Ruby, are you chilly? Let's go back in.

Vermont Timber Works, post and beam construction continues throughout this snowy February & probably snowy March!

Post & Beam Construction @ its Finest!

The custom designed post and beam home, it doesn't get much better than this in our eyes. Timber in rough sawn native hemlock with an extra sanding process. (removing the sweater catchers) Love that chandelier!

Custom designing give you so many options, and so many choices. You are not locked into a pre-designed or pre-engineered frame at Vermont Timber Works. Whether it be a very rustic look in hand hewn pine, or a more finished look in planed & chamfered douglas fir, or something in the middle. If a quality, custom designed, hand crafted timber frame, Vermont Timber Works is the company for you. Call us 802-886-1917.

A New England Post and Beam Home

From the design and engineering phase to the finished timber frame. Here is a wonderful example of a New England post and beam home.
Using traditional joinery and hand hewn white pine timbers the frame is craned into place and raised by Vermont Timber Works. Our crew does a great job, they have fun and it shows.

Look at the hand hewn timber, this frame looks like it's been in place for years and years.

From the kitchen area, throughout the first floor, you can see the post and beam construction and the warmth it creates.

Looking up to the loft and the 2nd floor area, this frame is a full timber frame, no doubt about that.

Here is our 2nd floor, they skylights add desired natural light. Very pretty.

Done. Now that is a New England Post and Beam Home. The addition in hand hewn white pine looks like it has always been there...Congrats Vermont Timber Works.
