The Environment


Builders today are faced with a heavy burden. As theconsciousness of humanity has increased to include an awareness of our individual impacts on the planet’s health, the decision to build anew is filled with many potentially damaging choices. The task of educating and guiding these choices falls to the builder. At Traditional Timber Works the corner stone of the structures we raise is this very commitment.

Our building techniques are rooted in time tested construction methods and utilize the evolving body of knowledge regarding healthy construction practices.

We believe that building anew can be accomplished in a sustainable manner. We also believe in the virtue of reclaiming existing structures for their beauty and for the inherent benefits achieved through reuse and recycling.
