Clydesdale frames Co. is a timber frame only company with in-house design services that builds custom traditional post and beam timber frame homes and light commercial timber frame buildings. We have all the benefits of being a small timber frame company located in the midwest. We promise that your calls and ideas will not be lost in the shuffle or bounced around from salesman to project manager and back again. As one of the only privately owned timber frame builders in the state of Kansas, when you talk to us you talk to the "national headquarters".
Designing and building a timber frame can be a labor of love. It demands lots of planning, lots of communication, and trust both ways. A healthy professional relationship is important to the process of timbers rising up out of the early morning light on your 'raising day'. I'm not sure there is an idea we haven't heard, a design issue we haven't overcome, or a building site problem we haven't conquered. At the end of the day, Clydesdale Frames is a family group of craftsmen that enjoy their work, love a good story, and know their wood.
We hand-cut and pre-fit our frames in the shop before shipping them to your location. This time spent in the shop ensures a precise fit, which reduces our on-site time to raise the timberframe on your subfloor and foundation. The raising is a time of celebration to watch the timbers lifted into position and secured into place. This place and position is where they should stay for hundreds and hundreds of years. Each frame design has its own inherent challenges and artistic expression. This keeps us on our toes and engaged in the current project.
May your Christmas be Merry, from all of us here at Clydesdale Frames Co!!
