Custom homes, timber frames, and the framing and finish carpentry in between — photographed on our own sites around Frontenac County.

Aerial view of a completed 7,500 square foot shop with a brown metal roof, two overhead doors, board-and-batten and stone exterior, and a timber-posted lean-to along one side

Featured · Purpose-built shop

7,500 sq ft, 16′ ceilings.

Built from the slab up as a working building — the tall clear height was the whole point, giving maximum usable volume and the flexibility to change what happens inside it later.

Stone elements and a custom timber accent keep it from reading like a pure steel box, and tie it to the houses we build.

Custom homes

Houses built one at a time.

Different sites, different budgets, same approach — exposed timber where it counts, real stone, and details that hold up to being looked at closely.

Timber framing

The part everyone photographs.

Trusses, entry porches and gable accents — laid out and cut in the shop, dry-fit, then raised on site.

Framing & finish

The two ends of the same job.

Structure that goes up square in February, and the trim and built-ins that make it feel finished months later.

We post as we build.

Foundations, framing, timber and finish go up on Instagram and Facebook as they happen — usually the same week.
