About PURCELL TIMBER FRAMES

Based in the beautiful mountains of Nelson BC, we live within the valleys of Douglas Fir, Cedar and many other wood species. We have formed a relationship with the forests in these mountains, playing, skiing and hiking amongst the trees and working with the wood. For us, it is not only about our product, but equally about the lifestyle we create, for both us the builder and you the owner living within. Our mission is to be sustainable with nature while creating state of the Art natural homes that perform with the elements. It is our intention that your Purcell built home will endure and support a healthy inspiring lifestyle for you and your generations to come.

HAND CRAFTED PREFAB HOMES

We offer full home packages featuring exposed post and beam timber frames brightly kissed with large expanses of glass windows, clad and finished with stone, metal and select fine woods. Our enclosure envelopes consist of the highest insulation per inch vented roof system and pre fabricated wall panels built to meet any R value or structural requirement. We can equip any house with its own alternative power system by utilizing solar panels, wind turbines, batteries, geo thermal, and wood fire energies. Our designs are sophisticated and detailed - maximizing the full value of the material and location of the home. Read more about our style which is really best known simply as "Purcell Architecture".

THE WOOD

Purcell Timber Frames works primarily with BC Douglas Fir, sought after for it's excellent engineered strength and exceptional beauty. Western Red Cedar is another common wood for Purcell Timber Frame homes famous for it's superior resistance to the weather. We also offer our products in many other wood species to meet your particular needs. We always have FSC Eco Certified wood and always encourage its use. We stock recycled timber from old buildings and harvest dead standing trees when available. Our wood is dried either by kiln, natural dead stand or a minimum 3 year air process, resulting in a very stable finished product.

TIMBER FRAME COMPONENTS

We have a detailed product line that is vast and full of individual components for all aspects of a home, both inside and out. Timber frame brackets, skirt roofs, entryways, roof systems, porches, decks, balconies, living rooms, feature rooms, carports, greenhouses and saunas, right through to interior stairs, railings and finished wood architectural details. By joining timber frame components to any conventional frame we can create a "timber frame hybrid" featuring timber frame elements in key places only where appreciated most.
