Frequently Asked Questions
What is post and beam construction?
Post and beam is a traditional building method that uses large vertical posts and horizontal beams to support the structure. Unlike conventional framing, the framework is often left exposed, creating a distinctive architectural look.
Is post and beam more expensive than standard framing?
While post and beam construction can involve higher material costs due to the use of premium timber, it often reduces the need for interior load-bearing walls. The result is a more open layout and long-term value that offsets the initial investment.
Can I customize the design of my post and beam addition?
Absolutely. We work with you to select beam styles, finishes, window placements, and roof configurations that match your home and preferences. Every addition is custom-built to reflect your vision.
Do post and beam additions require special permits?
Yes, like any structural addition, post and beam projects require permits. Paul Construction & Awning manages the entire permitting process to ensure your project meets all local regulations and inspection requirements.
How long does construction typically take?
Timelines vary based on the size and complexity of the addition, but most post and beam projects are completed within several weeks. We provide a detailed schedule during the planning phase and keep you informed throughout.
