Timber Framed vs. Stick Built – What sets us apart

Not only are our buildings aesthetically pleasing on the outside but we have created an interior look using a timber framing system that allows for a finished interior using Douglas Fir beams. You can exclude all the mess of plastering, sanding, painting…the interior finished product is stunning!

For those who want a traditional build (stick frame), not to worry, we’ve got you covered! If you do not have a need for a pleasing interior and want to utilize your building for storage or general shed-barn reasons, Great Barns , although specializing in Timber Frame will build your project the conventional way. 

We can accommodate your every need!

Want an insulated building? Need space in one of your “GREAT BARNS” for an office, studio, gym, billiards room, or “hang out” room”? Using SIP Panels on your beautiful timber-framed barn creates insulation and warmth to this space. SIPS are manufactured under factory controlled conditions and can be fabricated to fit nearly any building design. These panels are placed over the outside sheathing and do not interfere with the aesthetics of interior framing. The result is your timber framed barn with insulation!
