Davis Frame Co Review

Davis Frame Co is a designer and manufacturer of timber frame, panelized, and barn  home kits. It is important to note that as a kit home provider Davis Frame Co is only responsible for the structural shell of your home but depending on buyer preferences they can also include items such as doors, windows, and certain external finishes (siding and trim).  As both a timber frame and panelized home manufacturer, buyers have some flexibility when it comes to choosing the structure of a home from Davis Frame Co. This is due to the engineering differences between timber frame and panelized homes. Timber frame homes are framed using solid, continuous pieces of lumber. As a result,  there is no need for internal load bearing walls which allows for flexibility when configuring the interior layout of a home. On the other hand, the panels used in the assembly of panelized homes are load bearing, which limits the amount a buyer can configure their internal walls, though this allows for quicker home assembly and often decreased costs.

Stylistically, Davis Frame Co has a wide variety of pre-designed models that buyers can choose from, in addition to access to fully custom home designs. Davis Frame Co specializes in more traditional home designs such as barn homes, cabins, farm homes, New England Capes,  and colonials. Although they are headquartered in New Hampshire, Davis Frame CO offers both East Coast and West Coast manufacturing facilities and services projects throughout the united states.

Strengths:

  • Offer homes in a variety of designs and sizes

  • Have 2 cutting facilities to easily facilitate both east-coast and west-coast home production

  • Offer high-quality home kits that can be partially or fully customized

Reasons they might not be for you:

  • Their homes are outside of your price range

  • You want to work with the same company for the duration of your project
