What is the timeframe to construct a timber frame home?
With a custom home, the design process typically takes at least six months, but for some customers it’s a labor of love that takes a number of years to finalize. However, choosing to use or modify an existing SmartWood plan can certainly speed up the design process. Lead times for crafting our timber frame packages range from eight weeks for a SmartWood design to 12 weeks for a custom home. Once delivery has been made, erecting the timber frame can take from one to six weeks depending on the size and complexity of the design. Finishing the home to move-in condition will typically take a further six months to a year, again depending on the scope of the home.
