Finished product.
I built this timber frame back in June — then the clients took it the rest of the way. Their own roofer did the metal roof and trim, and they handled the electrical themselves, pot lights and ceiling fan included.
The frame is mine: curved arch braces, traditional joinery, and a tongue-and-groove ceiling that looks as good from underneath as the whole thing does from the yard.
This is my favourite kind of job — one solid structure that turns a backyard into the place everyone ends up. I'm booking about a month or two out, and a build like this starts with a conversation well before spring. If one's been on your list, let's talk.
