- Distressed — a rough, aged appearance
- Planed — smooth but unsanded
- Planed and Sanded
- Chamfered or Routed Edges
Reclaimed wood timber trusses: Available upon request are timber trusses made with reclaimed timber.
Timber Truss Restoration and Historical Replicas
We build timber trusses to match historical or damaged trusses in structures such as churches, school buildings, restaurants, and other historical buildings.
Every restoration or matching project starts with a detailed analysis of the building and its structural needs. We manage a close relationship with our clients to make sure all the project requirements and current building codes are met. We want every little detail to be just right — from design to finish.
A great example of our expertise in restoring or matching heavy timber trusses is the “Pier 29 Boat House Project”. We rebuilt the Pier 29 Boat Shed (San Francisco, CA) which was damaged by a fire. 15 massive timber trusses were needed — they had to match the historical design, meet current load requirements and the trusses had to be delivered in 2 months.
