Services
Conventional Framing
Our conventional framing services provide durable structural frameworks for commercial buildings using time-tested wood construction methods. We integrate wood components with steel, CMV, and concrete materials to meet modern building requirements. This service supports projects ranging from small retail spaces to large-scale health facilities.
Timber Framing
Timber framing solutions create strong, aesthetically pleasing structures using large wooden beams and traditional joinery techniques. We specialize in commercial applications requiring exposed timber elements for architectural appeal. This service is ideal for churches, amenity centers, and other facilities seeking natural wood aesthetics.
Wood Truss Systems
Our wood truss systems deliver engineered solutions for roof and floor structures with optimized strength-to-weight ratios. These prefabricated components enable faster installation while maintaining structural integrity. This service supports efficient construction of retail buildings, fire stations, and similar commercial projects.
Glu-lam Beam Systems
Glu-lam beam systems provide high-strength structural support for large open spaces requiring minimal interior columns. We install these engineered wood beams in commercial applications needing both load-bearing capacity and visual appeal. This service works well for pet hospitals, assisted living facilities, and similar structures.
Custom Wood Decks
Custom wood deck installations create durable outdoor spaces using premium materials like Ipe and Trex. We build decks to match specific architectural requirements while ensuring long-term performance. This service enhances commercial properties needing functional and attractive exterior environments.
