Think BIG




Recently, Vermont Timber Works was contracted to build frame for a new ski lodge in Stowe , Vermont. This is going to be a beautiful building, with some massive beams that run continuously through the structure.




I knew that the timbers were going to be large, at a 52' span, of course they would be, but I had no idea that the would look as big as they did when they arrived at our shop.




After seeing what can be done using these timber members, I believe that no idea is too big or too difficult. The resources are there, and we can harness them....


So when you are dreaming up your timber frame, remember to dream big!

Sorry, no KITS.

I had a gentleman ask me yesterday if all of our KITS were exactly the same, or if he could buy a different version.
I was pleased to be able to tell him that Vermont Timber Works does NOT make Timber Kits, but designs, hand cuts and builds every frame from raw materials. We don't use machines to do the work for us.
Each Timber Frame is custom built by the small group of talented craftsmen here at our facility.

Small business, Big results...

Thinking about a Timber Frame?
Look no further.

Consider This....

Every day, someone, somewhere is dreaming of building a new home, barn, cabin, etc...
But in this present day of having so many options, , the only way to "One-up" any other type of building is to incorporate a Timber Frame into the structure.

Not only does the unique craftmanship give you something to talk about, but adds a level of luxury to ANY project.

Look at the beautiful way to dress up a Great Room, or a Pool House by adding Post and Beam Framing to the mix.

I'm confident that the anyone else would be quite envious....
