Traditional Maine Timber Framing Craftsmanship

 
Post and beam barns - building plans and construction services Maine Barn Company brings traditional New England style and architectural heritage to post and beam barn designs by our experienced timber frame craftsmen. Each year the country loses more and more antiquated timber frame barns and the significant history they contain. Our building plans retain the barn aesthetic we have grown to admire and love in structures across the country. This classic country styling is represented in all our Maine Barn structures.
   
The barn has evolved over the years and many of us have images of a barn or know of a barn that has made a lasting impression on us. Working with these concepts and images, Maine Barn Company has found exciting uses for barns that combine the traditional New England architecture of yesteryear with today's yearning for rural American roots. During over twenty-five years in the industry, we have designed a number of standard size barn frames with versatility in mind. While conveying the barn aesthetic, our timber frames make ideal residential living spaces, guest cottages, workshops, studios, garages and, of course, functional horse barns.
 

Post and beam construction using traditional mortise and tenon joinery


Solid and rugged, our timber frame structures are the essence of traditional timber framing, utilizing oak pegged mortise and tenon joinery. No metal splines or brackets are used. With the weight of the structure concentrated on the frame, the interior remains largely open and unobstructed. Look through our web site and review our offerings. When you work with us, we know you will be pleased with the quality of our joinery and our attention to detail.
