Timber framing is more than just a style of building; it's a commitment to beauty, quality, and legacy.
The American Timberwrights Process: From Vision to Reality
STEP 1: Vision & Design Consultation
Initial Discovery: This is the fun part! Defining the vision! We meet with you to discuss your lifestyle, vision, budget, and building site.
Concept and Blueprints: Our in-house design team collaborates with you to translate your ideas into detailed, efficient timber frame blueprints. We balance your vision with structural integrity.
Budget and Scope of Work: We work with you to define your budget and the scope of work we will be executing.
STEP 2: Crafting & Fabrication
3D modeling and engineering: At this point we will further refine the 3D model in great detail and have it structurally assessed by a licensed engineer.
Timber Selection: We source and select the finest timbers, often cut and prepared on-site at our facility.
Precision Joinery: Our experienced timberwrights use a blend of old-world techniques and modern technology to precisely cut every beam and join (mortise, tenon, and pegs). Every piece is meticulously hand-finished and test-fitted.
STEP 3: The Raising & Enclosure
The Raising: This is the most exciting day! The frame is transported to your site and skillfully raised —a magnificent event that typically takes only a few days.

When it came time to finally build our boathouse, we knew we wanted the same guys who built our timber frame patio/pavilion – American TimberWrights. They did another fantastic job, and we are thrilled with the results!!!
