Living and working in this incredibly beautiful part of the world gives us a  connection to the land and it’s forests. This is at the heart of our inspiration and it is echoed in the craftsmanship that goes into each of our unique timber frames.

Our Clients come to us for more than just a unique home; it is to capture the essence of the lifestyle that goes along with a Hamill Creek Timberframe Home.

How it all began…

Just a few miles from our current site, our founder Dwight Smith worked as a carpenter on his first timber frame home. The traditional skills and craftsmanship of timberframing instantly intrigued Dwight. He found that this ancient art was more then just a different way of building; it was a way of life.

Dwight and his wife Debbie started Hamill Creek Timber Wrights in 1989. Business began in a small workshop beside their home in Hamill Creek, British Columbia with the help of a few employees. Many years of hard work has since resulted in a move to a new, much larger facility in nearby Meadow Creek, providing work for skilled craftsmen and creating training opportunities for many local people.

Today, we have grown into Hamill Creek Timber Homes and employ nearly 45 people, becoming an important source of rural employment. Custom Timber Frame Home Designers, Wood Engineers, Craftspeople and Sawmill staff - our people are really our greatest asset. Their experience, skill and timber frame expertise meld together to provide our clients with truly unique homes that reflect their personalities and enhance their lifestyles.
