We have teams pounding nails in Colorado and Montana.
Our designers just sent fresh construction docs to the printer.
Interns and summer helpers buzz around our shop, bustling by our woodworker aces, who are covered in sawdust, blasting music through the building, cutting, sanding, staining, and stockpiling timber frames into every corner.
Things finally feel normal again.
Sure, we could take our time and ease our way back into the hustle and flow of our design/build cycle but baby-steps are not our style.
We're most comfortable and efficient when we're busy, challenged, pushed to our operational max, and for the remainder of the year, we're getting exactly what we asked for.

Our field crew is ready to move mountains, which is where they'll be for a good chunk of the summer. Right now our team is spread between two projects in Colorado and Montana. We always look forward to working with awesome clients in scenic locations like these. The homes should be a couple of gems.

Our Colorado work is being completed in Granby, just west of Rocky Mountain National Park, a spot in the sky, 9,000' above sea level. |

The house is a new take on our Burke design. We have plenty of experience building this model, but we've never done it quite like this. Our team is off to a great start and the assembly has been smooth. This particular home is one of the easiest for us to build -- that single roof plane helps.

While our Colorado teammates adjust to the thin air (and work on their tans), our second crew is in the lowest elevated settlement in Montana.
Troy, a small town in the far northwest corner of the state, offers its own set of unique challenges.

We have experience building in remote areas. Our project in Kodiak, Alaska was pretty isolated and we had to drive for an hour from this project in Polebridge, Montana to get back onto the power grid. We've worked deep in grizzly bear country for years, but this note from our client in Troy was a first:
"If you hike anywhere out here, you need weapons. Mountain lions, grizzlies, black bear, moose, and wolves are all readily available out here. And I have seen each one of those on this property, lol."

We are also building five homes from our Olive Series. The first four feature front entries but the fifth includes both front and side-entries. Check out the details to see how a single design can flex into multiple forms. |

Dancing around our local quarantine list has been a high-intensity, short duration exercise but we’re getting it done with stops in Washington, Montana, and Oregon. |
|
It’s a strange new world out there. Even though the Timberbuilt office staff has been working from home for over a month we’ve stayed busy, productive, and are positioning ourselves in the starting blocks, waiting for the shot to get out and start building again. |
|
Autumn’s here, there’s a chill in the air, and it’s time to find a nice warm spot and hunker down for the winter BUT WE ARE NOT HUNKERERS. |

Oceanfront work sites, 16 hours of sunlight a day, and the world's largest bears. What more could we ask for? |

We’ve continued to rack up the frequent flyer miles with recent projects ranging from southern Colorado to South Dakota to the Poconos in Pennsylvania. Here’s a look at a few...

From the Colorado Sunbelt in San Juan National Forest to the "Crown Of The Continent" in Glacier National Park, to our own Lake Erie Basin, we spent our year working with an exceptionally diverse, amazing bunch of clients. THANKS to you all! |

Lots more ahead this summer.
