Timber frame houses have been dominated the built landscape for many centuries and a lot of ancient timber framed houses still exist even today which is testament to their longevity. Timber framed houses are also the number once choice in many other European countries as well as Australia and mainly North America.
There are hundreds of timber frame kits available from suppliers and it is possible to build to a completely custom design. Once you have settled on the timber frame design that you want to build you have a number of options for building your house. You even can completely manage to build it yourself including the erection of the frame and the internal fixtures, fittings or you can hire a management company that will handle all things from design and plans right through to the completed construction of your timber frame house.
It is possible to pick a path between these options. You can use a management company to create design and planning and then construction of the timber frame, you can then take care of the internal fixtures and fittings such as plumbing and wiring etc. The flexibility of the timber frame approach for the self building is incredible and is another reason why it is such a popular construction method.

How to Build a House
Timber frame house is celebration of wood on a massive scale. Tall posts grow from the floor and connect overhead in a soaring network of beams, rafters and braces also joined with glovelike precision. And the entire structure — which can last for centuries — remains exposed as evidence of the craftsman's skills. |

Wall Framing Blocking - House Framing Tips
In the USA, timber framing was common until the late 1800s. Then, industrial innovation and the need to house a growing population helped push this way of building aside. Sawmills started producing dimensional lumber, which was much easier to transport, cut and erect than large posts and beams. Carpenters found they could use cheap, factory nails to assemble these "sticks" into structures in which the walls - rather than a heavy frame — supported the weight of the building. Known as balloon framing, the technique required much less skill and time than working with enormous timbers.
