Timber Frame Homes / The GREAT Room.

This timber frame home features a classic saltbox design with native hemlock timbers and traditional joinery.

The great room tends to be the focal point in the timber frame design. This one is very pretty.

Love the contrast between the light walls and the weathered timbers. Great job Vermont Timber!

Cupola - Tower Truss with Cross Bracing

From the shop drawings to the finished frame, heavy timber construction and trusses is the focus of Vermont Timber Works.


The Ferrisburgh Grange Hall Timber Bell Tower...by Vermont Timber Works and contracted through Breadloaf Construction Corp. Here are some progress shots of our assembly.









Peter (our engineer ) is out there helping and it is about 26 degrees, and the wind has a bite. Rough sawn hemlock timbers have a clear finish. Steel joinery with traditional mortise & tenon is being used on this project.








At this point we have Todd & Dan up on the ladders and Peter on the ground guiding the joint into place. Doug is running the Lull and things are really coming together.










As the final side is guided into place, we have Peter, Dan and Todd on the ground, and Rick is driving the Lull. Sue and I are enjoying the view and were able to take some of these pictures through the window, brrrr.

Looking good Vermont Timber Works. Usually this part of the assembly is done on the job site, especially when our crew is contracted for the raising. In this case, Breadloaf and their team will crane this into place.

Timber Frame Great Room with Loft.

This hemlock timber frame is very impressive and can be found in beautiful Manchester, VT. The great room with a loft overlooking the open area is a wonderful design idea and is chosen quite often.

Above is the view of the great room looking down from the loft area, not bad huh? Thank you Vermont Timber Works!
