Founded in 1984 by Richard Krouse, Timber Frames by R. A. Krouse is a small, family run timber frame company that started, on the coast of Maine. Our vision has since expanded from the islands of New England to the mountains of Colorado.

Timber Frames by R. A. Krouse is a full service designer and builder of traditional homes, barns, and commercial structures.

The attribute that separates Timber Frames by R. A. Krouse from others is that our work is not only a testimonial of craftsmanship; it is the ability to translate an idea to the client’s purpose.

Designed and hand cut in Maine, and joined anywhere. Let us be a part of your journey.

Our philosophy is to provide clients with true craftsmanship. We are small enough that we can provide our clients with personal service, attention to detail, and exceptional value. With our very traditional timber frame style, while using high quality building materials and modern technologies, our structures become highly energy-efficient, everlasting structures.

We invite you to browse our website – look through the Homes, Barns and Commercial Structures we like to showcase. If you like what you discover all we have to offer, please don’t hesitate to let us know how we can assist you. We’d welcome the opportunity to help you make your building dreams a reality!
