JenRan Homes - The Complete Home Builder

Construction of a TimbeRoof home begins in our climate-controlled factory, where cut timbers arrive from one of our numerous partner mills. Our team of post-and-beam specialists then size the timbers to the exact length required, cut the mortises and tenons and create all of the joints and angles. Once the cutting and notching are complete, the timbers are sanded and then our client’s choice of stain is applied to all of the wood involved in the project. The posts and beams are then tested for fit and ease of assembly to eliminate potential problems on the building site. Only after top quality is assured does the whole package get shipped to the erection site.

At the building site, after the timber frame and framed walls (SIPs or stud) go up, the factory-stained paneling is installed. When completed in this order, the tongue-and-groove placement on top of the rafters is, on average, five times faster than in conventional stick-built construction. The last step is installing the insulated roof panels on top of the T&G sections. In this manner, an entire home can be under roof with a finished ceiling in just a few days instead of the weeks required by conventional techniques. In order to assure our customers that the process runs flawlessly, TimbeRoof always sends a representative from our factory to oversee erection of the timber frame shell, regardless of the location. Who else in the industry provides such peace of mind?
