Aesthetic Value

By merging cutting-edge techniques in design and energy-efficiency with the age-old art of timber framing, a TimbeRoof Post and Beam structure can range from traditional to modern. While stick-built homes depend on internal walls to support the roof, post-and-beam structures accomplish the same task with a few strong, well-placed timbers. The vertical posts, holding large horizontal beams, create a spacious, open interior within a self-supporting outer shell. This increases the design possibilities by allowing the indoor space to be left open or divided in any way imaginable.

Just as important, timber framing also results in structures that are pleasing to the eye. The same structure that allows design flexibility also provides a true feeling of indoor space, both horizontally and vertically. A TimbeRoof home, with high vaulted ceilings and open expanses, provides a vast living area by merging structural integrity with open floor plans not possible with other construction methods. With layout and square footage of a home being the main factor in its appearance, flexibility inherent with timber framing means a home can be customized to suit any individual's tastes. TimbeRoof also enhances its structures by suggesting the use of drywall and white paint, resulting in a pleasant contrast to the exposed timbers and making much better use of light than houses with all of the wood exposed.

Eco-Friendly Traditions for Today & Tomorrow

Top

TimbeRoof Post and Beam structures are built for individuals in search of a home with both a traditional look and the 21st century efficiency of eco-friendly construction. TimbeRoof minimizes its environmental impact on the Earth by using renewable timber resources and implementing frame assembly methods that reduce waste and take place in a climate-controlled, indoor environment. We also advocate and offer incredibly energy-efficient insulation panels (SIPs) for walls and roofing. Such panels result in far fewer gaps in the insulated shell of a structure than in stud-built structures and the reduction of heat-loss when SIP materials are used is staggering.

Construction Common Sense

Efficiency does not end at our factory gates. Once the frames are built, TimbeRoof ships them to your construction site on-demand, where they can be quickly assembled by a minimum number of crewmembers. This results in time and money saved for both the builder and the client. The construction aspects, combined with the aesthetic advantages, design flexibility and environmentally friendly nature of a post-and-beam home, make timber-framing with TimbeRoof the ideal method of home building in the new millennium.
