We remain dedicated to our founding principle, "excellence without
compromise," and stand behind the quality of our products with a 20-year product
warranty.
Our Tradition of Excellence since 1972 sets our homes apart… the
quality of your home will be unmatched in the marketplace.
Imagine yourself living in a post and beam home. Relax in light-filled rooms surrounded by
the warmth and beauty of natural wood.
Contemporary, traditional, classic or rustic - whatever style home you choose,
the timeless beauty and ambiance of a Habitat Post & Beam home will make it
a pleasure in which to live. You
can customize your home plan as much as you desire. Our professional,
custom-design service is provided as part of our commitment to you.
Flexible floor plans may create open, spacious rooms and cathedral ceilings for great
rooms, bedroom suites and eat-in kitchens. Rooms flow into each other,
making family activities and entertaining a joy.
With post and beam homes, the timber frame carries the structural load. Our proprietary wall system allows tremendous design flexibility with open, spacious
rooms, vaulted ceilings and walls of glass. Electrical and plumbing services are easy to install. Changes during construction or later add-ons are economical with post and beam construction.
Habitat's energy-efficient concepts and designs keep heating
and cooling costs to a minimum. Habitat's superior wall and roof systems,
thermally-efficient doors and windows, passive solar design and attention to on-site
orientation provide significant energy savings.

Our interior and exterior
building materials produce an environmentally sound product for healthy,
comfortable living. Our use of polystyrene insulation (in combination with
fiberglass batting) was carefully selected because of its low outgassing
properties.
The cost of a Habitat Post & Beam homes is similar to a
conventionally framed home when using materials of the same quality. We
use the highest quality materials and can maintain a reasonable cost due to our
wholesale-direct purchasing power. We buy our timbers and other materials
in railcar quantities saving you money. Our pre-built component building
package assembles quickly and easily by your contractor, saving you and your
contractor additional time and money.
Engineered and pre-built at our mill,
the component building package assures consistent, high quality craftsmanship
and materials. We use the highest grade Douglas fir timbers and select
suppliers for components (such as windows and doors) based on their
quality. For over a quarter-century we have selected building materials
known for their low maintenance and longevity, including fine cedar siding and
decking, kiln-dried framing materials and premium windows, doors, and
roofing.
