Pacific Post & Beam, located on California's Central Coast in the Tin City area of Paso Robles, has designed and built quality, custom timber frame homes, wineries, and trusses since our formation in 1982. We involve our staff with a limited number of projects each year, ensuring the quality and attention to detail we feel our clients deserve. Our frames are assembled and erected by the same skilled craftsmen who cut the joinery. Whether we are developing a design from scratch or working directly with your architect, we approach each project on an individual basis.
Our TIMBER FRAME HOMES gallery shows many examples of homes that are constructed as post and beam structures using timber frame joinery. To meet modern building codes, our timber frames have standard metal hardware applied to the backsides of joints to resist tension loads. No exposed metal hardware is visible on our timberframes. Most of these timber frame homes are also enclosed with SIP's. In addition to having higher insulation values than conventional framing, the SIPs also provide a faster and easier method enclose a timber frame building.

We are familiar with California's strictly enforced building codes and can provide our clients with all the services necessary to obtain their building permit.

We ship assembled timber trusses and smaller simple timber frames for installation by others. Our on site work is limited to consulting.
