Our Timber Frame Work: Places We Work

Timber framing and post and beam construction provide more than just a solution to a structural problem. It’s not about finding the most cost-effective construction method. It’s about authenticity and about spaces that communicate their essence, their character, through the visible, sturdy wooden skeleton that withstands time and elements.

Commercial Timber Frame — Commercial Projects

Consider the varied commercial projects we’ve been privileged to be a part of—from the largest horse barn in the United States to Google Fiber’s adaptive reuse of a 100 year-old building in Charlotte, North Carolina. These structures aren’t just buildings. They’re statements, assertions of a commitment to aesthetics, sustainability, and craftsmanship that elevate them beyond the purely functional.

And when it came to building our own manufacturing facility (see video below), we held ourselves to the same standard. It would have been easier—and cheaper—to erect a metal structure, but it wouldn’t have been true to who we are and what we value. We wanted to walk the walk, not just talk the talk. We built a timber frame facility because we believe in the authenticity and beauty of what we create.

The result? Clients now travel long distances to visit us, drawn not just by our work, but by our workspace as well. And our team benefits, too, working in a place they can take pride in, a space that inspires them every day.

Take a tour through a selection of the commercial timber frame projects we’ve completed over the years. Got questions or a project in mind? We work in North Carolina and throughout the United States. Feel free to contact us. Or better yet, come and visit our timber frame workspace. We promise we’re a friendly bunch. Our phone number? It’s 828-266-9663.

Fritz ReadStandard Architects

Carolina Timberworks did what they said they would do, when they said they would do it. Their people were responsive, professional, and went over and above at times to meet the sometimes demanding expectations of three different architects. We would recommend Carolina Timberworks to others undertaking a schedule-driven, architect-designed, challenging project incorporating heavy timber.

Your workers just left the job. Hands down they were the absolute best sub contractors I’ve had on this job. No whining and complaining. Professional all the way. Asked questions if things didn’t look right and cleaned up before they drove off. It doesn’t get any better.

Gordon GrayVannoy Construction

They are one of the best damned companies I’ve ever worked with.

We’ve got one other timber framer looking at the job, but they’re not my preferred option because getting from point A to point B involves a lot of pain.

Since the first timber frame we built more than 20 years ago, we’ve been building great timber frames for great people. We build people’s dreams and do what we said we’d do–when we said we’d do it. Sometimes we’re not the right choice for a particular job. So, we ask questions and listen–because that’s the only way we know to determine if what’s most important to you matches what we do well.
