Timberbuilt designs and builds architecturally distinct, energy-efficient timber frame homes from coast to coast, and we’re proud to offer our services throughout Louisiana.
We provide customizable designs, timber framing, and on-site assembly to create beautiful homes that are sustainable, comfortable, and engineered to last generations.
Louisiana’s rich cultural heritage, diverse landscapes, and unique architectural styles make it a perfect location to build a timber frame home.
Whether you’re looking to create a serene retreat in the bayous, a modern home in one of Louisiana’s vibrant cities, or a coastal escape, Timberbuilt’s energy-efficient, customizable designs are well-suited for the Pelican State’s varied settings.
Designs for Louisiana Landscapes
Louisiana is known for its diverse ecosystems, from the winding bayous and swamps to the scenic Gulf Coast and rolling pine forests. We design our homes to make the most of your natural settings, with expansive windows, covered porches, and outdoor living spaces that let you connect with the outdoors year-round.
For properties in southern Louisiana, our homes can be customized to withstand the challenges of a coastal climate, incorporating raised foundations and weather-resistant materials. Many of our designs are ideal for properties near the water, where expansive decks and large windows can offer stunning views of Louisiana’s rivers, lakes, and coastal areas.
In northern Louisiana, Timberbuilt homes can complement the tranquil forested areas, blending seamlessly into the rolling hills and pine woods.
Energy Efficient For Louisiana’s Climate
Louisiana’s hot, humid summers and mild winters make energy efficiency crucial for creating a comfortable home. Timberbuilt homes use structural insulated panels (SIPs) to form an airtight, well-insulated enclosure, helping to keep homes cool during the steamy summer months while reducing the need for large cooling systems.
SIPs provide excellent insulation, preventing heat from entering the home and minimizing the need for air conditioning, which is essential in Louisiana’s climate. In cooler months, SIPs help maintain warmth, keeping energy costs low and ensuring your home stays comfortable.
Timberbuilt’s energy-efficient construction provides an ideal balance between durability and sustainability, no matter what part of Louisiana you call home.
Engineered To Last
Louisiana’s varied climate requires durable homes.
Our designs are engineered to withstand the elements at your specific location, combining solid timber frame construction with airtight SIPs for maximum durability and comfort.
Whether you’re dreaming of a rustic cabin or a haven on the coast, a timber frame home can fit your property and your style.
