After extensive research on the internet
about Timber Framing, looking at all the companies that offer it,
comparing prices and quality, I chose Northern Lights Timber Framing
for two distinct reasons.
The first was Clark Bremer, who is not only
the owner, but also carves and installs the frame as well - he's not
just a salesman. He displayed extraordinary patience working
with me on this project. This was the first time I acted as my
own General Contractor, so I had a multitude of questions, not only
about timber framing, but the entire building process. He
answered all of my questions, or directed me to someone who could if
he didn't know. He was always just a phone call away.
The second reason I chose Northern Lights
was that the same crew the carved the timbers also came out to raise
the frame. I didn't have to look for a crew in the north woods
that had timber framing experience. Even after the crew
finished and left, he remained in touch with me after the raising,
and saw me through to the end of the project.
Northern Lights Timber Framing did an
outstanding job with the timbers. They're beautiful, and are
getting even better as they age (just as they promised). I
highly recommend Clark and his crew at Northern Lights Timber
Framing if you want an exquisite product and the personalized
care that I got.
