Your Yakima Timber Frame Home Builder

Serving Clients in Central Washington Since 2002

From its sun-drenched orchards and vineyards to its sweeping views of Mount Adams, Yakima offers an incredible backdrop for a custom timber frame home. Whether you’re building on rural farmland, nestled into the foothills, or planning a family estate just outside the city, Yakima is the perfect place to create a timber frame home that’s rooted in natural beauty and built to last. At DC Builders, we specialize in crafting custom homes that reflect the land, climate, and character of every location—and Yakima is no exception.

What We Do

DC Builders is a premier design-build firm based in the Pacific Northwest, with decades of experience designing and building heavy timber homes across Washington and the West. Our in-house team manages every stage of the building process—from custom design and engineering to framing and general contracting—so you get a cohesive, streamlined experience from day one.

For clients seeking an efficient yet high-quality path to homebuilding, we also offer pre-engineered timber frame home kits through our sister company, DC Structures. Each kit can be fully customized to fit your site, vision, and Yakima’s Central Washington climate.
