Jeff Johnson Timber Frames, Inc. is a Design Build Company
Our Timber Frame Services Include:
Planning your Timber Frame Home
| Timber frame home
in Eastern White Pine with a hammerbeam truss for the
great room area. |
|
| Your building
process will begin with the planning of your home. The
choice of wood species and timber frame style is the
first step in the planning of any timber frame home. We
will help you make the selections that work best for
you. Much consideration will be given to the natural
characteristics of your building site. Timber species
selection is a vital choice for your satisfaction with
your home. We will discuss the pros and cons of each
species in regard to strength, color, cost and cosmetic
characteristics. |

Timber Frame Home DesignJeff
Johnson Timber Frames offers a collection of standard timber
frame designs which we call our "Watershed"
series. These designs are simple, beautiful and strong. There is
a great deal of versatility in each of these timber frames.
Floor plans can be oriented in various ways within any given
frame design. If our standard timber frame designs do not suit
your desired floor plan, modifications may be made to create
your own custom home design. Custom timber frame designs may be
created by our staff to include your own ideas or your home
design may be created by others and then converted by us to a
timber frame structure to suit your design.
The Construction of Your Timber Frame HomeThe
timber frame - Milling or planing is standard on all of
our frames. If you would like to see the "saw marks"
we can leave them "rough". Planed timbers are smooth
and soft to the touch. 98% of our frames are planed. We also do
a first sanding to help clean any knife marks created during the
milling process. All timbers are joined with mortise, tenons,
and trunnels or wooden pegs.
Structural
Insulated Panels (SIPS) are used to enclose our timber
frames. We work with a number of panel manufacturers. Ask us for
our recommendations on their use, efficiency and insulating
values.
Tongue
and groove boards 1 x 6 and/or 2 x 6 are used in the
ceilings, decks and loft floors of our timber frames. Our
standard timber frame prices include tongue and groove boards of
Douglas Fir. These boards are also available in Eastern White
Pine or Cypress. Other widths and species are available upon
special request. We install the tongue and groove boards if
desired.
Specialized Timber Frame Options
- Hand hewn beams
- "New timbers, old look." A craftsperson will
come to our shop and with all hand tools (and a strong back)
hand hew each timber. This is only offered in the white pine
frames.
- Timber stains
- we can work with a number of stains to achieve the desired
look. For example: White Pine with a Cherry stain, White
Pine with a Walnut stain, etc.
- Structural
Engineering - If your local officials need to see or
keep a "set" of approved plans, we can provide
them.
