Ridgefield Pavilion by the Pool
A 12' x 16' Ridgefield Pavilion sits atop a stone patio overlooking an immaculate poolscape in Burlington, CT. The Ridgefield Pavilion has pressure-treated wood posts wrapped in maintenance-free vinyl. A copper top cupola crowns the hip roof, and an upgraded ceiling leaves the rafters and tongue & groove roof decking exposed. The customer opted to paint the ceiling white to match the vinyl. A pavilion is a great addition to any backyard space, providing shelter while you enjoy the outdoors.
Sleek and Modern Newport Garage
A sleek, modern design with rustic accents defines this 30' x 50' Newport Garage in Ellington, CT. This conventionally built garage has a 12' first floor wall height and a 10-12 roof pitch, creating an oversized footprint ready for any use. Black shiplap pine siding wraps around the exterior, tying in nicely with black Andersen 400 series windows and a 12' x 14' glass overhead door. A large set of pine sliding barn doors closes to conceal the overhead door. Timber accents, including an open lean-to, an eyebrow roof, and a cow catcher peak with show rafters add country style to the contemporary exterior.
Timber Framing the Airplane Hangar: Part Three
In January of 2025, our entire crew came together in the bitter cold to raise the frame for a spectacular, one-of-a-kind timber frame airplane hangar. Over 77,000 board feet of Douglas fir was cut to perfection for this post & beam project. Eight monstrous queen post trusses, weighing over 10,000 pounds each, create a wide open interior spanning a massive 76'. SIPs were added to insulate the hangar, and reclaimed barn board and corrugated metal siding & roofing complete the weathertight shell. Today, the hangar is finished, now home to a Pilatus PC-12 NGX turboprop aircraft.
