What We
Do......
| Whatever your tastes or timber frame requirements,
Alder River Timber Frames
offers the
craftsmanship and
versatility
to provide you with the timber work you
desire for your project.
Alder River Timber Frames also provides and installs
heavy timber
trusses and roof systems for
clients who require the span or desire the
vaulted space and atmosphere that a timber
framed roof can provide, but prefer the
walls to be of another type of
construction, such as stud, masonry, or
log walls.
|
Here are
some of the types of structures we can
timber frame: |
|
• New Residences |
• Additions |
|
• Working barns |
• Carriage houses |
|
• Workshops |
• Bridges |
|
• Porches |
• Pool houses |
|
• Gazebos |
• Cabins |
Timber frame construction offers
tremendous versatility in style and
appearance. An
old-world look can be accomplished
using either reclaimed antique timbers or
new timbers with a hand-hewn or
hand-planed finish. A
formal atmosphere
can be created by using planed timbers
with chamfered edges, arched braces, and
other embellishments. A more informal
country or even rustic,
barn-style
look is accomplished with rough sawn
timbers, straight braces, and simple,
straightforward design. A modern or
contemporary
interior is accomplished using
planed timbers with slightly rounded
edges, a light stain, and a design that
features clean, straight lines.
Species selection and surface finish play
major roles in defining the look and feel
of a timber frame. We provide high-quality
timber in several
species, including southern yellow
pine, eastern white pine, red and white
oak, Douglas fir, and cypress. For
surface finish, we offer
rough-sawn, machine planed, hand planed,
hand-hewn, and hand-scraped surfaces to
provide you with the look and texture you
desire. We have developed a reliable
network of professional suppliers who
consistently provide us with high quality
material.
