We’re part of a tradition of legacy craftsman builders, always evaluating and striving toward mastery. We know that the details no one sees matter as much as the ones everyone admires, which is why we treat every part of the building process with care and attention.
Our approach to building blends a reverence for traditional craftsmanship and time-proven details with fresh perspectives, technological efficiency, and applied building science with intuitive detailing. Buildings that stand the test of time are durable, resilient, and beautiful. Durability fights against the weather and natural disasters, resiliency allows the building to heal itself when the weather wins, and architecture and beauty inspire people to care for and maintain these structures. With decades of experience, we deliver projects where structure, finish details, and landscape blend seamlessly to create something that’s as durable as it is beautiful.
Our home framing focuses on quality, precision, strength, and a respect for the trades and finish materials that follow. Our background in timber-framing makes us experts in tight framing and craftsmanship, and our engineering background lends us the math and problem-solving skills needed for hand-cutting complicated roofs, achieving tight contemporary tolerances, integrating with steel, and hitting the mark. We take pride in the process and pre-fabricate components on site, and have rigging and machinery capabilities to set these components. The strength of our pre-construction planning allows us to anticipate conflicts with HVAC, plumbing, and finishes, and our back-end drafting, estimating and coordination capacity ensures complicated work proceeds smoothly and efficiently.
Thoughtful, well crafted joinery is simple, strong, and beautiful, which is why it stands the test of time. We build our timber frames by hand, ensuring the highest possible quality. It’s a craft that requires an eye for fine-finish workmanship and an understanding of engineering and strength, producing structures that are uniquely stable and timeless.
The land beneath a home sets the stage for the entire project. From site evaluation and design to permitting and civil engineering, we work with clients and partners to ensure that each project’s hidden systems are capable of supporting the life of the building. The result is homes designed to harmonize with the natural landscape that create a palpable sense of place.
Our renewal of historic structures unites consideration of the future with reverence for the past, aligning the principles of the original architects, builders and craftsmen with High Camp’s focus on durability and beauty. Restoration work involves thoughtful de-construction, methodical repairs that are respectful to the building and its history, and selection of appropriate materials and products that match historic aesthetics while meeting the practical needs of the modern occupant. We believe that homes that have lasted long enough to be candidates for restoration deserve the kind of care and attention to detail that will carry them forward for years to come.
