Cornerstone is your Timber Framer
In recent years the resurgence in timber framing has re-opened a world of great possibilities in home design, aesthetics and quality. One of the first steps on the journey towards a beautiful timber frame home is choosing a timber frame company that will be responsive to your needs. When you choose to work with us you’ll see how:
Cornerstone encourages cooperation and professional input.
• We gladly work with your supplied designs and professionally prepared plans.
• And if you need assistance we will freely offer referral to home designers, architects, interior designers, decorators, building contractors and individual trades.
• Our in-house timber design work is based on 30 years of home construction experience, 19 years of joinery work and a love of timber traditions the world over.
Cornerstone is able to hear your ideas and concerns.
• When you speak, we’re all ears! Of course we do ask relevant questions and are always keen to understand your needs and preferences.
• Our first priority is not making a sale but ensuring a good fit – for your lifestyle, your location and your budget. Cornerstone specializes in custom solutions and we won’t ask you to consider a “cookie cutter” design.
Cornerstone is an active member of the Timber Framers Guild.
• As Guild members we are committed to continuously improving our skills, and regularly expand our awareness of traditional and new methods through travel, study and discussion.
Cornerstone uses the best available materials and practices.
• We offer white pine, douglas fir and oak, the gold standard framing materials available in the north central US and Canada. .
• Our designs won’t over-extend spans between posts or skimp on material. We live by an operating philosophy that puts quality and frame integrity first.
• We think long-term and encourage our clients to invest in energy efficient wall and roof panels, windows and heating and cooling systems that realize the full potential of a timber frame building.
Cornerstone promotes knowledge about timber framing.
• We enjoy helping our customers discover the rich variety and potential of timber frame construction. We readily suggest books and other resources to increase public awareness and knowledge of the timber frame craft.
