Our Collaborative Process

Building Your Dream Timber Frame Together

At Erie Timber Frames, we believe in building your dream, not just selling you a structure. We take a collaborative approach to every project, ensuring your vision becomes a reality.

How it Works

1

Initial Consultation

Our process begins with a one-on-one consultation with you, the client. Whether you have a residential or commercial project in mind, we’ll discuss your needs, preferences, and budget. This initial meeting is crucial for understanding your vision and ensuring we’re a good fit for your project. We'll also discuss whether you're interested in a full-service construction project or a DIY kit option.
2

Design Collaboration

Do you have a specific design in mind? We can work with your existing blueprints or collaborate with your architect to bring your ideas to life. Our team of experts can provide valuable insights and suggestions for optimizing your timber frame design for functionality and aesthetics.

Material Selection

Based on your input, our experienced designers will create custom plans and specifications that reflect your unique vision. We'll work closely with you to make any necessary adjustments or modifications until you're completely satisfied with the design.

Construction Planning (For Full-Service Projects)

Once the design is finalized, we'll develop a detailed construction plan outlining the timeline, budget, and specific steps involved in building your timber frame. This plan will provide you with a clear understanding of the project's scope and timeline, including communication protocols for regular updates throughout construction.
**For DIY Kits:** If you choose a DIY kit, we'll provide detailed assembly instructions and ongoing support to ensure a smooth building experience.
5

Quality Control

Throughout the construction process, we maintain rigorous quality control standards to ensure that your timber frame structure meets the highest standards of excellence. This applies to both full-service projects and DIY kits.

Handover and Support

Upon completion, we'll conduct a thorough inspection to ensure your satisfaction with your new timber frame structure. We'll also provide ongoing support and maintenance guidance to help you care for your investment for generations to come.

By working together throughout this collaborative process, we’ll create a timber frame structure that not only meets your expectations but exceeds them.
