“We have begun the finish work…. I still get compliments on your craftsmanship from the other craftsmen. Amazing job by you and your crew!” –Dave H.
“My wife and I have now worked with HP&B on four projects. There is no one else I would even consider to do our work.” —Warren J.
I finally found a wonderful lot to build my house on, but I was very sad to have to take down several big, beautiful red oaks to make room for the driveway. So I was committed to using the wood in my house. My biggest prize is one of the tree trunks that stands whole as a 16' post in the middle of my house, which HP&B prepared and installed. I visited their shop while Christian was debarking and treating the tree, and I was impressed with his care of it, the way he touched it and talked about it. I knew it was in good hands. This man clearly loves his work. They also cut and installed my porch frame, which turned out exactly as I wanted it. The finishing products they used are natural and LEED-certified -- and beautiful. HP&B does wonderful work plus they're very pleasant to deal with.
We own a home on the Mad River in Warren, Vermont. One of the most delightful aspects of our property is driving into our driveway and feasting our eyes on the river. The most unfavorable aspect of our property was NO GARAGE! We lived through several winters scraping snow off our cars - and we mean a lot of snow. Yet, we just weren’t willing to sacrifice our vista of this quintessential Vermont river for a traditional garage. Our good fortune was to connect with Christian and his team of talented craftsman at Hardwick Post and Beam.Our conversations began with sketches in a notebook and finished with a magnificent post and beam structure. This type of structure is frequently referred to as a Carport; we refer to our gorgeous post and beam structure as a “Porte Cochere,” as it is the only title befitting this beautiful yet extremely functional structure.We had numerous conversations, some face to face conversations others via email. All our communications with Christian were highly professional in tone and always reflected his knowledge of the craft. Our experience with Christian was that no detail was overlooked.We couldn’t be happier with the resulting structure or with our interactions with Christian, and the work of his highly skilled team. We highly recommend Hardwick Post and Beam to anyone interested in building a post and beam structure.
We moved into our Hardwick Post & Beam home in November of 2018 and could not be happier. Christian and his team were a pleasure to work with from the design process through to the end. He even made us a timber frame lamppost, pergola, wishing well and gang mailbox which tied everything in from the inside to outside. He led a great erection team and they had the frame up in just a few days perfectly plumb and level. My kitchen designer/contractor, when coming out to take field measurements, said, "I keep getting the exact same measurement!" We highly recommend them to anyone interested in a timber frame home. Everyone that has seen it is amazed.
