After looking at several timber frame builders in the northeast United States, we engaged Hardwick Post and Beam because the quality of their work was so above and beyond all of the competitors.
While they are slightly more expensive than other options, we felt the money was well invested as the end result is just beautiful to look at, and better constructed.
All of the posts and beams are pegged, the braces have beautiful curved chamfers. The roof joists are arched where they meet the main beam. Many of the competitors have lapped joints that didn't really seem to fit well.
Hardwick is also responsible for the design. We had a lot of ideas of our own, and they were so wonderful and patient as we spent months revising and reworking to finally arrive at the house that we were dreaming of.
I am especially grateful for the help, expertise and patience of Newell Shinn and architect Bob Sleboda.
Hardwicks job stops at the framing. They work with Foard Panels who manufactured the insulated panels for the walls and roof.
They recommended a contractor that they had done lots of work with for the rest of the job.
Timber frame houses are more expensive to build than conventionally framed houses, but they are works of art. Hardwick's houses are the cream of the crop.

We were referred to the Team at Hardwick Post & Beam and boy are we grateful! Christian and the Team were professional, knowledgeable and responsive from the very start when we reached out for a special timber frame structure for our deck on Martha's Vineyard. Their expertise in working with our architect was evident from the get-go. They were collaborative, helpful and did I mention responsive??? Great service, amazing products, super nice talented Team and we can't wait to work with them again. They did everything they said they would do - WOW! Thank you Christian and Hardwick Post & Beam!!
Great to work with. Hardwick was very accommodating with the framing design we required, the selection of timber species we needed for our framing plan, and changes that were required by our local Historic District Commission. Their craftsmanship was second to none. The team that erected our timber frame was superbly skilled and efficient. Their pricing was very competitive. They’re a great outfit.
