Our Timber Frame Work: Places We Live

No one truly needs a timber frame.

Just like no one needs a meticulously crafted Swiss mechanical watch when a digital one keeps better time. Or an original Van Gogh, when a print would suffice to decorate a wall.

The practicality of timber frame and post and beam construction isn’t the primary appeal. Timber framing is an architectural solution to a structural problem.

As Seen In

Unlike conventional homes that tuck their structure away behind walls and ceilings, timber frame homes are not about finding the most economical solution. Instead, timber frame homes wear their structure with pride. It’s about showcasing the home’s essence, its sturdy authentic skeleton that resolutely withstands the elements and the relentless march of time.

The primary appeal of timber framing lies in the aesthetics and the unique living experience these structures provide. In the realm of luxury custom homes, timber framing stands apart.

Join us on a visual journey through a selection of timber frame homes, both full frame and hybrid, that we’ve had the privilege of helping create over the past two decades.

We had such a warm welcoming feeling talking with Carolina Timberworks about our dream home, it reminded us of spending time with longtime friends…that confident, comfortable warm feeling you have…It was like coming home. We are happy to have made the decision to have Carolina Timberworks working with us to make our dream home a reality.

Lee and Beth Hayworth

I did concern myself with the difficult and sometimes painful process of finding the right people for the task. You guys made it a pleasure. From the initial visit through the final execution, you delivered. Quality people do quality work on time and on budget, what else can a client ask?

Wayne Horn

We just wanted to let all of you know how thoroughly pleased we are with the trusses you installed in our new house. We were expecting them to be great but not this great! Every step of the process from our first meeting to the measurements to the installation was smooth and stress free.

Lucy and Roger Hull

When Anne and I started the home, we wanted to make sure that the attention to detail would help us create something unique. You’ve helped us achieve our goal. Every time I look at the timbers I see something new and interesting. Who needs TV when you can sit back and look at fantastic timber work!

CTW delivered above and beyond the call of duty with respect to building and installing the truss and brackets and to providing follow-up support. Furthermore, your team’s ability and willingness to adapt to an aggressive timetable enabled us to stay on track and to finish our renovation on time. Fran and I are so thrilled with the outcome and regularly recommend CTW to others without hesitation.

Ashton Poole

I go out to the house every day after the workers leave and I look at the timber trusses and I am amazed.

Since the first timber frame we built more than 20 years ago, we’ve been building great timber frames for great people. We build people’s dreams and do what we said we’d do–when we said we’d do it. Sometimes we’re not the right choice for a particular job. So, we ask questions and listen–because that’s the only way we know to determine if what’s most important to you matches what we do well.
