Three Ten Timber

How much does a custom timber frame or log home typically cost?

Every project is unique, but most homes fall within a typical budget range based on size, complexity, and material choices. When you complete our budget survey, we can provide a preliminary budget range for your specific project. For larger or more complex projects, total budgets can and often do climb into the millions.

Do you work outside of Iowa?

Yes. We regularly design, fabricate, and raise timber and log structures across the U.S. We work nationwide and take projects far beyond just raising the timber frame, including drying in the structure and extended construction services.03

Can you work with my architect or builder?

Absolutely. We often partner and collaborate with architects and general contractors while we directly handle the timber and log scope.04

How long does a typical project take?

Timelines vary by scope, but most projects move through design, fabrication, and raising over several months. We recommend planning at least 6-12 months before ground is broken to allow time for design, fabrication, and pre-construction. In select cases we have mobilized much faster when a project demands urgency. We’ll outline a realistic schedule once we understand your goals.05

Can you use reclaimed materials from my property?

In many cases we can. If you have an existing barn or structure, we can evaluate the timbers and discuss how they might be incorporated.06
