Native New Yorkers and co-founders Chris Rall and Jeff Wiegmann started Timber with a simple conviction: building homes is not just about structure — it’s about creating spaces that reflect how people live, grow, and belong. Over years of working on diverse projects — from modest renovations to full custom homes — they saw a recurring gap: few firms offered a truly integrated process that merged design and build under one roof without sacrificing quality, clarity, or craft.

Timber was founded to close that gap. From our early days we committed to self-performing as much of the work as possible — site work, framing, finishes — in order to maintain control, precision, and responsibility throughout every phase of construction. That commitment remains at the core of everything we do.
