Would it be much more expensive to build a house using post-beam or timber frame? I asked a question before the barn conversions, but it seems that it could be harder than what it would be worthwhile.
Well, I still like the look of post and beam and timber frame.
What material prices for the post and beam or timber frame is more expensive than the materials of the development stick?
Yes, the frame posts and beams of wood is more expensive and there are people who become limited to building houses in this style.
Assuming you are talking about the look inside, you can still get the look of post and beam, if desired. It would add cost, but not to the point of a full post and beam home.
I think there are all ready with plans that look available, but you will spend some time looking for them.
Of course, you can also hire a someone to do this kind of interior design for you.
timber structures can be more expensive, but they should not be too much. The choice in the rest of the end of reading in the equation. We have had clients to build beautiful houses modest wood-frame and others to build luxury homes incredible. It depends where you want to go with your budget. Report Abuse
