Timberwork That Defines Mountain Architecture
Few construction elements define mountain architecture more powerfully than exposed timberwork. At RCV Construction, timber framing and decorative timberwork are among our most distinctive specialties — skills honed over 30 years of building in the Sierra Nevada.
We work with heavy structural timbers for post-and-beam framing, decorative ridge beams, roof trusses, covered porch structures, and accent elements that add warmth, character, and lasting value to any home.

Decorative and structural timber roof trusses that create dramatic cathedral ceiling spaces.

Why Timberwork Adds Value
Quality timberwork adds measurable value to your home. Heavy timber construction is exceptionally durable — many historic timber-frame structures still stand after 200+ years. In the Reno-Tahoe luxury market, homes with authentic timber detailing consistently command premium prices and attract serious buyers.
As one of the few contractors in the region with genuine heavy timber expertise, RCV Construction brings both the knowledge and the equipment needed to safely and beautifully execute timber projects of any scale.
