Bear Creek Timberwrights offers a unique blend of the latest computer technology for custom design, with old-world craftsmanship of traditional joinery. Timber framing offers incredible design flexibility, and provides spacious living with simple rustic elegance. We gladly provide full architectural design services, or will work with an architect of your choice. We excel in providing attention to detail, and enjoy bringing your ideas to life.

Bear Creek Timberwrights offers three options to incorporate a timber frame into your project:

  • A traditional mortise and tenon frame available in several species of wood and finishes, enclosed with structural insulated panels. We work with your architect or can provide design and engineering services.
  • A partial or hybrid timber frame where only a portion of the home has exposed timbers. The balance of the home is built conventionally.
  • Timber trusses can be used to enhance any project. Trusses may be built in a variety of styles, ranging from Gothic to Oriental.

Please contact us if you are interested in watching the exciting event of a timber frame raising, and we'll let you know if there is one near your geographical area. Our staff here at Bear Creek is always glad to help interested people gain a better understanding of the timber frame construction method.

We invite you to walk through one of our Timber Frame homes. Touch the carved wood. Feel the spaciousness of cathedral ceilings and the coziness of the study. Notice the light. Timber framing means wide open possibilities for windows and soft lighting that make every room inviting and dramatically different, day or night.

At Bear Creek Timberwrights, what we like most about our buildings is their simple grace. It's a grand deception, considering the concentrated effort that makes it all possible. But that's what is so satisfying. Because we know people will live in them and admire them for a long, long time.
