35 YEAR HISTORY
With over 30 years of construction history, tradition and integrity is engrained in the Timber Block team. Since its establishment in 1977 as a family business, we have seen great success thanks to our commitment to customer satisfaction. Customer satisfaction was our goal then, and remains our number one goal today.
SUPERIOR, GREEN TECHNOLOGY
Timber Block IS the revolutionary R-30 insulated log home. With many states now
mandating homes to be built with R-19 insulation or higher, it is more difficult for
traditional log homes to compete. A standard Timber Block home is built with R-30
insulation; almost 4 times the level of insulation found in a traditional log home.
Our R-30 insulation keeps your home comfortable, and reduces the usage (and cost) of heating and cooling. Our homes use just 40 per cent of the wood, with the remaining 60 per cent used in other components. This means less waste, in fact, with each and every Timber Block home; close to 30 fewer trees are used.
As well, our wood is dried to 8-10 per cent moisture content. This, along with our
patented assembly design, eliminates the risk of settling and checking which is typical of most traditional log homes.
SPEED OF BUILD – Built in hours, not weeks
Our true stacked log walls are assembled inside the factory, bolted, bonded and
finished so that they can be raised on-site in a matter of hours. This ensures that walls are perfectly straight and level. Timber Block also provides a fully qualified and skilled technician, at no extra cost, to oversee the wall-raising ensuring our commitment to quality is met.
CUSTOM DESIGN – Floor plans!
Timber Block’s building technique can be applied to a variety of designs and looks. Our
professional team can custom build to your personal specifications. Custom designs are completed within 5 business days by any one of our on-staff architects and are included in your package price.
