Why DC Builders
We believe that building a timber frame home should be an inspiring and collaborative experience. That’s why we work closely with you from the earliest concept through the final walkthrough—prioritizing open communication, thoughtful planning, and precise execution.
Our deep knowledge of Oregon’s terrain, weather patterns, and permitting processes ensures a smooth and efficient build. By using locally sourced timber and working with experienced regional crews, we create homes that perform beautifully year-round and harmonize with the natural surroundings.
Our Partnership with DC Structures
To give clients more flexibility, we partner with our sister company, DC Structures, to offer pre-engineered timber frame home kits designed for Oregon’s climate and architectural preferences. Based right here in Portland, DC Structures provides an array of customizable designs that can serve as the perfect starting point for your dream home.
By combining their precision-manufactured kits with our expert construction services, we provide a faster, more cost-effective path to building while still offering the full customization and craftsmanship you expect from DC Builders.
