Livelywood Timber Frame Homes, a division of Lively Custom Homes,
LLC, is a full service, custom home design-build company offering precut timber
frame and insulated wall and roof panel packages. With over thirty-five (35) years of timber
frame experience, we can provide design services, delivered precut packages,
weather-tight construction and turn-key projects.
Timber frame options include choice
of wood species, housed joinery, traditional mortice and tenon or exposed steel
plates, King or Queen Post styles and Hammer Bents for the entire house or
Great Room or accent elements for the exterior gables and porches.
These Olde World timber frames are
combined with the modern technology of energy efficient, structural insulated
panels (SIPs) for the walls and roof, meeting or exceeding local energy
codes. Precut for all windows and
exterior door openings, SIPs are installed onto the outside face of the timber
frame for an uninterrupted envelope of insulation over the entire structure.
SIPs are made using an EPS or
Polyurethane insulation core sandwiched between two (2) layers of OSB and are
available in various thicknesses from 4½" to 12⅛" and sizes from 4' x 8' to 8'
x 24' with R values ranging from R-16 to R-45.
In keeping with being Earth friendly, the SIPs are manufactured w/o any
CFCs, HCFCs, HFCs or Formaldehyde.
Coupled with Eastern White Pine timbers, a fast growing renewable
resource, our frame and panel packages are considered "green".
