The Dugas Residence is in Wakefield, NH. Vermont Timber Works provided a timber frame with a complicated roof system that uses massive wood beams for the purlins and rafters for this residential client.
We worked with Dugas Builders, LLC on the project.
All of our frames are handcrafted to meet exact project requirements, and we enjoy working with our clients to make sure the details – from design to finish – are just right.
With over 26 years of experience designing, engineering and building custom timber frames, we can assure our clients that our frames are the best in the industry.

The interior of the home shows off decisions that were made early in the design process, like which species of timber to use. This home was constructed using Douglas Fir timber that was finished with a urethane stain. The frame is traditionally joined, and the mortise & tenon joints that are held secure with 1” birch pegs.

After a timber frame has been fabricated in our Vermont shop, our crew often travels to the job site to assemble and raise the frame. The same people who cut the frame do the assembly.
