“I’ve always loved the massiveness, durability, and detail in timber framing,” says Eli, owner of Brookside Timber Frame. Before Eli established Brookside Timber Frame, he worked for another construction company. As Eli’s crew was building a stick-frame wedding barn, he found himself imagining how good it would have looked in the timber frame style.
Eli started doing timber framing on the side part-time. It was obvious there was a demand for timber framing in his area. After meeting with local patio builders, Eli began timber framing full-time. And so in 2018, Brookside Timber Frame was born in an empty dairy barn. Today they operate out of a large, new facility, spurred on by the mission to give their customers premium results. For them, timber framing is an art form that needs to be shared with the world.
Carry on an Old-World, timber-frame tradition in your backyard.
You’re out of the sun and out of the rain but still outside.
Enjoy a backyard structure that matches nature’s aesthetic.
When correctly crafted, a mortise and tenon joint is among the strongest and most durable of all wood joints. When you partner with Brookside, you gain the strength of this centuries-old technique. And your structure will retain its durability and value for years.
We don’t believe in cookie-cutter structures. We handcraft each structure and pay close attention to every detail.
In a world of manmade materials and synthetics, we don’t cut corners. We build with only solid North American wood timbers. Real timber’s advantages include natural durability, strength, and beauty.
We’re not just selling backyard structures and dropping them off for you to deal with. After your structure is carefully crafted and packaged in our manufacturing facility, our team delivers and builds your structure on-site.
