At MoreSun, we have been timber framing since 2002. Our woodworking experience goes back even further. From large houses and barns to small gazebos and pergolas, we can design, hand-cut and raise the timber frame you want. We specialize in commercial projects as well as residential.
Timber framing offers design flexibility that can feature open floor plans. Strength, durability and energy efficiency are also advantages of a timber frame structure. This ancient building method gives us a connection to our past and to the land we live on. Your personal style can be reflected by the type of wood you choose and the custom details you decide to feature.
