Timber Frame Construction
Timber Frame Pavilions
Timber Frame pavilions are likely the most iconic form of timber frame construction evident today. These grand outdoor living structures are simply delightful as a venue for retreat centers, business resorts, weddings, parties, parks and more. We have several styles of timber frame pavilions for you to choose from to garnish your outdoor recreational area.
Custom Timber Frame Construction
Timber framing can provide a facelift to an existing structure, or a crowning feature on your new house, barn, or storefront. While timber frame construction stands in a class of its own, there’s no reason for it to remain separate from your building. Exponentially increase the appeal of your property with an entryway that evokes a feeling of rustic grandeur.
Of course, there’s no reason to relegate timber frame craftsmanship to the out-of-doors. Even a single timber frame post or beam may be what’s needed to accent the design of your kitchen, restaurant, or workshop. Muscle up your architecture with a beautiful wooden feature.
Gallery of Timber Framing
Timber framing is the are and science of using millennia-old techniques of joining wooden beams into a tight latticework structure. The result is as strong as long-lasting as it is beautiful and awe-inspiring. When combined with stonework, granite, and/or bronze facia, you create an experience that exudes integrity, permanence, fine taste and skilled craftsmanship. We are thrilled to bring this age-old and artistic construction to your property with the following variations of timber frame construction.
I love my new gazebo. It’s beautiful and the quality is excellent. Kevin and his father were both a pleasure to work with, and ordering and delivery were both smooth. My only minor complaint is the door closure in the center of the door. My husband and I have both gotten caught on it–kind of feel it should have been on the bottom or top.
We found this company through Nextdoor recommendation. The whole experience from start to finish was extremely pleasant. Kevin was very responsive and handled all our questions with great attention to detail and his father installed the shed professionally. Excellent customer service, excellent work, we love our shed and last but not least we are happy with the price.
Kevin and everyone at Pequea are the best. We just bought our second shed from Kevin and the team and couldn’t be happier. We were able to get exactly what we wanted!! Professional from the sales team, design, and the delivery was amazing. The gentleman that delivered the shed was more than experienced in doing what he does. Put the shed right where we wanted it!!! If you are thinking about buying a shed, don’t waste your time at other places, Go To Pequea!!!!
We had a wonderful experience with this company and would highly recommended them if you need a shed/ or a shed moved. Extremely professional, very reasonably priced, great customer service. Will keep their information on hand for referrals and-or future use. Thanks again!

If I could give this company 10 stars, I would!! They are awesome.
Let me start by saying … I always wanted a pergola in my backyard but thought the cost and process would be too much. Lancaster County Backyard made it easy. LCB is an awesome company with terrific customer service. Kevin King and his father are kind, patient and professional. And, most importantly, to my surprise, it was affordable. The pergola is a wonderful addition to our backyard.
Totally satisfied. I highly recommend Lancaster County Backyard!!
The absolute best!!! I have never had a better experience with a company. The gazebo is beautiful!!! Elmer and Ivan made the experience great. There is no way you will find a better company, product, or group of people. Thanks guys!!!
We just had our new 10×12 Gazebo installed yesterday. It’s even prettier than we imagined and the installers were fantastic. So happy–thank you LCB!
LCB, are proficient, prompt professionals. Kevin King is a top-notched professional who provides exceptional customer service. I cannot tell you enough how great they are. I highly recommend them. We plan on doing business them again & have recommended my family and friends. ONLY if every business provided the same level of expertise, timeliness, & service like LCB. We are you’re biggest fan! Thank you so much for our gorgeous Pergola 👍🏾
From the beginning everything about my experience was great. Kevin King was very responsive to email and was very patient with all my questions and switching things up on our shed. The install was seamless, both the site crew and their builders showed up on time, finished as promised, and left no trace of their work behind, except a beautiful shed! The workers were considerate about where to park and conscientious about trying not to mess up the yard around the work area. They literally just left and I was so pleased I had to write this immediately. Highly recommended! Thank you!
Very happy with entire experience, from talking with Kevin to order our shed to Ivan delivering it this morning! Unfortunately I misjudged the height of the new shed but Ivan took care of the tree and bush that were in the way! Couldn’t be more pleased! Highly recommend them, and Kevin was so patient with my concerns! Thanks King family! �
Great company and well made products.
From start to finish they were a great company to deal with. No high pressure, Kevin helped me through the order process as well as recomendations for site prep. The gazebo was insatlled as promissed and the quality is excellant. If you are considering a gazebo look no further.
Best decision ever! Prior to having our pavilion we were unable to use our patio. The sun was too strong. Now, we use it daily. Over the years we have had many companies come to our home to do work. NEVER have we had one so professional and courteous. It is very obvious they truly care about their work. From start to finish it was a pleasure working with everyone from Lancaster County Backyard. This was a big project for us. Kevin was very patient working with us to make sure our project was completed as requested. He took his time to provide us with a quality product and to ensure we would be happy. While planning, if we were stuck on an idea he took the time to show us different options. They showed up when expected on time, worked hard, and they were very neat. Our pavilion far exceeds what we pictured it would be. Their attention to detail was exceptional! Thank you Kevin and Lancaster County Backyard for the beautiful addition to our home.
From start to finish Kevin was a pleasure to work with. Very professional and responds quickly to emails and calls. He listened to our thoughts and was able to incorporate some custom details that really made the gazebo match the house. The final product is extremely well made and was delivered as promised. Highly recommended,
Thank you!!!
Beautiful 16×16 pavillion. Built in one day! Professional and strongly built. Kevin kept me informed of every detail. Could not be happier and price was lower than every competitor.
I recently had a pavilion built as part of a back yard project. From beginning to end, my experience with the Lancaster County Backyard staff and their craftsman was exemplary. They were all very knowledgeable, professional, courteous and wonderful to deal with.
I was also building an attached stone fireplace to the pavilion by another contractor. Kevin (of LCB) was very knowledgeable at such a detailed level, I knew he was very experienced. When we reviewed the project, I truly felt like he was helping build a family member’s Pavilion.
I would recommend LCB without any reservations and they can use me as a reference anytime.
Thank you Kevin and LCB.
We were new to the area, downsizing, and we needed extra storage space. Several neighbors referred us to Lancaster County Backyard. We couldn’t of been happier with their product! Kevin King walked us thru the process and reviewed options and any special customization that we would need. They delivered as promised and the installation was perfect. I would highly recommend them.
From my first discussion with Kevin King to the time the installation crew drove away the process was seamless. My wife and I talked about putting up a gazebo in our yard. We discussed a do-it-yourself approach as well as a kit. After searching the internet for options Lancaster County Backyard was our choice. From the initial quote to the final install took less than a month. The final product, as you can see in the photo was even more than we expected. The price was great, workmanship top-notch, and the staff friendly and knowledgeable. I would recommend them highly to anyone looking to add a structure to their home

I received excellent service! Everyone was so helpful and accommodating. Love my shed. It was well built. I purchased it wit shelves on one side and once it was installed I wanted shelves on the other side. They were more than happy to return to put shelves on the other side. I recommend them to everyone who wants a well made and well priced shed.
Very happy with the shed we ordered and more than happy with the experience. We unfortunately had a tree that even though we trimmed it was still in the way. I didn’t realize how much higher the new shed was, but Ivan sawed a branch off for us and trimmed some other branches. How awesome was that! Great family to do business with and reasonable prices too! Would highly recommend them!! Thanks Ivan and Kevin!
I had two of the workers come to my house to install a cedar roof on my gazebo. They arrived at 7:00 am and worked all day long. I can say that these two workers were the hardest workers I have ever seen in my life. It was absolute perfection! I have pictures. You may also come to my home to see the job they did. Truly unbelievably beautiful. Thank you guys and God blessed you with such great talent. I already gave my neighbor your website and phone number.
Very happy with how quick you made the shed and had it delivered–very nice working with you guys!
Thank you for a good experience. Very happy with the shed.
These guys FAR EXCEEDED my expectations. From Elmer coming out and helping with the design/ quote to the team that raised my roof in a day, I couldn’t be more pleased.
It’s rare you come across a contractor now a days that is courteous throughout the process, shows up when they say they will, and gives you more than you could have hoped for!
Well done Lancaster County Backyard!
Fast service, great product. Exactly what I asked for at a fair price compared to others I searched. Delivered on time. Perfect customer experience. Thanks to all involved.
This was the second shed that I had purchased from LCB in the last ~10 years (yes, the first shed is still doing just fine!). I couldn’t have been happier with the service from the design to the delivery and installation. They worked magic leveling the install site (dare I say beautiful) and Ivan (delivery and install) fit the shed through some pretty tight spaces and placed it just where we wanted it. Thanks again for everything!!
From start to finish we received excellent service. We were shown a picture of what we purchased and it was a 100% match. The Pavilion is beautiful. The men Installed it in one day and that in it self was impressive.
I highly recommend them to complete your project.
We are very happy with our vinyl screened in gazebo from Lancaster County Backyards. They were very responsive from the start and delivered ahead of schedule. Kevin and his Dad did a professional job assembling the gazebo in our backyard. They were a pleasure to work with and talk to that day. We have received many compliments from our friends and neighbors on our beautiful new gazebo!
We had been searching for a gazebo for months and found Pequea/Lancaster County backyard. The buying experience was first rate. Elmer showed us around their facility and was extremely helpful in selecting and customizing our gazebo and providing detailed information on site preparation. He was always available for my many questions and couldn’t have been friendlier or more cooperative. Delivery to our somewhat challenging site was handled easily by Ivan. The gazebo looks fantastic. We would highly recommend Pequea to anyone looking for a high quality, attractive gazebo,.
Met all of our expectations!!! Outstanding quality! Very happy..
I selected Lancaster County Backyards primarily for their ability to provide the product and services that I was looking for within the geographic radius of where I live. I was also impressed with Elmer’s level of knowledge and that he took time to answer my questions and provide details on how the pergola would be designed. He was also very response to my emails and calls which is important to me and very thorough in the information provided back.
We can not say enough about the craftsmanship and customer service of Lancaster County Backyard. We were hosting a party and needed a pergola to keep our guest out of the direct sun of our backyard.
The party was fast approaching and we were losing hope that we would find a quality product to meet our needs, when we found LCB.
Kevin and his team were fantastic, it was noticeable from our first discussion that LCB are expert craftsmen.and had unsurpassed knowledge which could meet our build needs.
Not only where they able to meet our deadline, Kevin and his team delivered a beautiful white wood pergola which is the envy of our neighbors. We would highly recommend the quality, service and craftsmanship of LCB.
We are thrilled with the quality, fit and finish, and appearance of our new gazebo. It has been a pleasure working with you during the planning and delivery discussions. It was also great that you were flexible with our delivery date because dry and firm ground was absolutely essential to getting the unit in place.
I watched your Dad every step of the way during the on site handling and set up and he is amazing. The combination of the specialized equipment and the skill of Ivan were astounding to us. Very well done. We also appreciate the care with which Ivan handled the gazebo and completed the final leveling. All-in-all – fantastic!
The gazebo is beautiful, with lovely flourishes and rounded corners. It is sturdy (2×6 flooring), high-quality PT wood, and has a cupola that is like a cherry on top! I love it and will spend many a hot summer afternoon reading there. Sales staff was professional, appointment made promptly, and delivery was perfect (less than 2hrs to install). I camouflaged the 4×4 skids and landscaped around it. Price was right too! Most competitive on the market for my area. Life is good!
We were very happy with our experience with Pequea. We had a custom shed built and are very pleased with the final product. Kevin and the staff were a pleasure to work with. Elmer was so helpful with the customization of the shed. The installer went above and beyond when given the difficult task of negotiating a narrow driveway along side of our cabin. He went the extra mile to make it work. I highly recommend Pequea!
Excellent customer service and excellent quality!
I just had a pavilion installed from Kevin and his crew. They arrived early on Tuesday morning and working tirelessly throughout the day. I had many questions as the work progressed, Kevin patiently answered.
Kevin is respectful, hands on, and oversees all of the installation. My husband and I were extremely satisfied with the entire process. We would highly recommend Kevin and his crew to anyone.
Pequea Shed is a wonderful company to deal with! Elmer made the whole process easy and enjoyable, he is very knowledgeable, and the communication throughout was exceptional. My wife and I are very satisfied with the workmanship on the shed itself, and Ivan did a great job setting it up. I highly recommend Pequea Shed and would use them again.
If you are in the market for a shed or a pergola, then Pequea Storage Shed is the place to go. We ordered both a shed and a pergola for a backyard pool area and they exceeded every expectation we had, from design to install.
We have never had a better purchasing experience. They are totally accommodating in every aspect of picking out what you want and need, especially if you have never had a shed or a pergola before, they can help you visualize your structure and order with confidence that it will be everything you want it to be.
The cedar pergola that they built for us on site is truly a work of art. They are great craftsmen, who take immense pride in their work, both on and off site. In a world of mass production and impersonal service, Pequea stands out for their very personal service and quality of workmanship!
I can’t say enough about this company. Not only did they build a beautiful, affordable gazebo, but it was delivered and placed to perfection. Elmer was the best; professional, courteous, and nice, nice, nice. Ivan delivered it and placed it on my pier pilings PERFECTLY!!! Again, a pleasure to do business with. I will be using them again. Thanks guys.
After a summer of shopping for a pavilion with many disappointments we thought we would not get our pavilion that is until I had a phone conversation with Kevin. After this conversation with him suddenly I realized that he was not only interested in selling his product, but he wanted to be sure his customer would be happy. In my opinion he would rather not get the sale if his customer would not be happy. He shared information no other companies provided.
After careful consideration of all the data we decided go with Lancaster County Backyard (Pequea Shed). Kevin and the crew arrived early Wednesday morning and worked all day to complete the project by around 4:30PM. The end result was absolutely perfect. Total perfection at it’s best!. Kevin and the crew was a real pleasure to work with. You can really tell when someone loves what they do. What I love best is that they love the Lord. I got that feeling with the very first phone call. It’s a pleasure to know you. God Bless !!!!
These guys did an awesome job in helping me work through the various options, sizes, colors, etc. in my selection of the shed. The customer service by Elmer was really great. They return calls promptly and did an overall excellent job of customer service and were very easy to communicate with and deal with – even when I made a handful of last minute changes to the design. They were flexible and accommodating. The shed delivery was equally as smooth. They arrived within the time that they promised and Ivan was excellent to work with in getting the shed located at the right spot on the pad and he was very careful to do this without damage plants, bushes etc. Overall, this was a wonderful service experience and I would recommend Pequea Storage Sheds to anyone.
I called and spoke to Elmer about having a shed delivered to Virginia. I have a very challenging property, not much space to get the truck down the driveway, I did not want to take down sections of fence. I recorded some videos of the proposed idea to bring the shed down, and I uploaded them to Dropbox for Elmer to view. Elmer took his time, reviewed the videos, and made the process so extremely easy, it is unreal! The local PEQUEA shed dealer 6 mils down the street was MORE expensive, and wanted to take 8 weeks to get me a shed. Elmer was great to work with, was clear, concise, got me a delivery date that worked around my travel plans, and I got the shed yesterday.
Let’s not forget about Ivan, the delivery driver. Calm, cool, collected, and does he know his stuff! Carefully lowering the shed onto a mule off my stone retaining wall with a 4 foot drop. Elmer even made sure Ivan had some sections of plywood to place under the Mule to avoid damage to my lawn. Ivan was efficient , and careful, and we got the shed exactly where we wanted it. Elmer responded to all of my messages, requests, etc, and sent me pictures of the shed the night before delivery , as we requested. An overall great team, trustworthy. Would recommend them in a second!
I recently purchased a 12 X 16 vinyl gazebo from you. After 38 years as an Engineer and presently being retired, I find myself to be very detailed and selective when making purchases. Prior to purchasing the gazebo from you I had evaluated two other manufactures of gazebos in the state of Pennsylvania for structural integrity, durability and appearance. My conclusion was that your product met my expectations and exceeded the other manufacturers.
Please pass on my appreciation to everyone at Pequea. Also, extend a special thank you to Ivan King for his expertise in delivery and set-up of the gazebo. And to you, thank you for your customer service skills in communicating the details of your product and making my purchase easy.
I love my gazebo and so does everyone else. The friends who helped me unload it and ultimately helped me put the roof on commented on the construction and were also impressed by the design and ultimate durability.
The gazebo that we bought from you is absolutely beautiful. We get compliments all the time from our friends and neighbors. Following your instructions, it was very easy to assemble. This is a top quality product. We are very pleased with it and will enjoy it for years to come.
I also wanted to let you know how impressed I was with how helpful and courteous your employees were when I picked up the gazebo. They went out of their way to ensure that the load was properly loaded and secured.
I cannot express how happy I am with my experience with your company. Outstanding customer service and quality.
I initially discovered Pequea Storage Shed through an ad on Ebay. The style and size of gazebo presented there was exactly what I was looking for so I decided to contact your firm directly for a bit more information. All of my questions were answered completely and politely, giving me the confidence to place an order.
I am extremely pleased with the quality of workmanship and materials in our new gazebo. The level of detail is beyond what I expected and I’m confident that the robust nature of its construction will provide us a beautiful gazebo that will serve us well for many years.
Gazebos offered by other firms in my area were not of the quality as those sold by Pequea Storage Shed yet there were priced considerably higher.
Its hard to cite even one aspect of my transaction with your firm that was in any way unsatisfactory. From A to Z, you do things right.
As a businessman myself and after dealing with many other businesses and contractors over the years, I can truthfully say a transaction just doesn’t get any better than my gazebo purchase from Pequea. I got what I wanted, when it was promised, in a polite and professional manner, with no hassles. Three cheers for a job well done!

Questions?
What kinds of custom timber framing projects do you offer?
Our most popular timber framing product is our timber frame pavilions, but we can also produce timber framing storefronts, barn fronts, interior beams, attached pavilions, and more. Get in touch to discuss your unique project!
What kinds of foundations are needed for timber frame pavilions?
We can fasten our pavilions on a variety of foundation types, though concrete piers are popular and somewhat preferred for outdoor structures.
Do you factory stain your wooden structures?
We do offer premier-quality stain in a variety of shades and colors. Although this service provides the most convenient staining option for your structure, it’s even better to wait for staining until three or four months after construction. Dryer wood receives stain better, though you don’t want to wait so long that oxidation becomes evident and the wood starts to gray. Ask us for more direction on the ideal staining procedure for your project.
Will the exposed posts and beams check over time?
A check is the name given to cracks that form on the surface of wood columns, and results from the outermost layers drying and contracting before the inner core. Checking is considered an inevitable feature of wood construction, and simply adds to the unique character of each piece of wood. For lumber that is less susceptible to deep checks, choose #1 Douglas Fir for your exposed wooden structure.
Do you use exclusively mortise and tenon joinery in timber framing?
Mortise and tenon is the architectural term for the joining of posts, beams, and braces using a tightly interlocking design that’s secured with wood pegs rather than metal fasteners. Projects that feature exposed beams with mechanical fasteners are typically classified as post and beam construction rather than timber frame. While mortise and tenon is preferred on our timber frame projects, depending on the design we may suggest the inclusion of hidden, minimal, or artfully integrated metal brackets and straps in order to maintain budgetary requirements, or produce a different kind of look.
