Timber frames home offer incredible natural beauty, strength and flexibility in design. A well structured and constructed timber house can offer you a great and wonderful living experience for very many years to come.The building is comfortable an generally retains a lot of warmth all throughout. The desire to have these houses has led to establishment of professional tree house building companies.

A lot of timber is needed by these companies for them to carry out their constructions. To ensure steady operations and constant inflow of this important input, they have planted their own forests which they harvest when the trees are of age. The harvested quantity is not sufficient for their production hence they also buy from other large growers to supplement theirs.

Logs are taken for processing in the factories. Here they are cut to desired sizes and shapes and then they are soaked with different preservative chemicals for treatment which minimizes the chances of the timber rooting thus making them more durable. After this process the timber is ready for use. This is the main reason wood has been preferred for construction. Once they have obtained enough timber they commence construction activities.

More people in the city of Brownsville, CA are considering timber households to be better which has necessitated the location up of many industries in the area with most of them being set up on the north of the city where there are many tree plantations. Most of these lumbering factories are involved in the construction of buildings.

Clients who want to have these houses made for them they visit the firms where they give their desired characteristics of the unit they want. The designers provide different models which are available. The clients are then required to make full payments and the contractor takes charge of the building from the beginning up to the time it is finished and ready to be occupied. The firm has to provide the necessary resources during this period.

Houses build vary in sizes and shapes according to the buyers wants. However, it has been noted that most people are ordering smaller sized houses, a reason which has been attributed to the high cost of wood and its products. To achieve the ultimate beauty, wood is used from the floor up to the roofing. Small pieces are placed on the floor in a pattern that is more appealing to give a beautiful floor. For roofing the wood undergoes extra treatment to make it water repellent and prevent soaking.

Painting can also be done using patterns but many people prefer the timber to retain its original color thus painting is avoided. Different trees have different colors thus they can be put at intervals to produce a pattern. Some old logs can also be shaped and used as furniture, vases and wooden hooks on the walls.

Though timber is very costly, it is a good material for building because it can stay for a long period. It also brings out beautify results when used. It can be cut and designed into many shapes.
