Every successful timber project starts with a clear, coordinated process. From design and sourcing to precision cutting, finishing, quality control, delivery, and installation, each step is managed with care to help your project move smoothly from concept to completion.
We begin by understanding your project goals, whether you’re building a custom home, commercial structure, or institutional project. Our design and engineering team works with you, your architect, or your builder to develop detailed shop drawings and 3D models that support your design, budget, timeline, and performance requirements.
We help guide key material decisions, including timber species, grades, structural requirements, moisture content, and sustainability goals. Our team sources high-quality timber suited to the needs of each project, with options for FOHC timber, mass timber systems, certified materials, and custom specifications.
Timbers are fabricated at our 15,000 sq. ft. facility in Exshaw, Alberta, using a combination of advanced CNC technology and skilled hand-cutting. Our Hundegger ROBOT-Drive CNC machine cuts timber frame and mass timber components with exceptional accuracy, helping each piece fit precisely on site.
Every timber is prepared and finished to suit the look and performance needs of the project. From planed, sanded, brushed, or textured surfaces to stains, clear coats, and low-VOC finishing products, we help bring out the natural beauty of the wood while supporting long-term durability.
Before leaving our shop, each timber package is inspected, bundled, protected, and prepared for site delivery. Our team coordinates shipping, installation sequencing, lifting requirements, and site support to help ensure a smooth, efficient build. We can provide full installation services or support your team on site.
Sustainability is considered throughout our process, from responsible timber sourcing and efficient material use to low-VOC finishes and our near-zero-waste shop practices. By reducing waste, reusing byproducts, and choosing durable wood systems, we help create timber structures with lower environmental impact and long-term value.

We've worked with Woodpecker for many years now on numerous clients projects and projects for the owners. We have worked with them on Single-Family, Multi-Family and Commercial Projects. Their work and professionalism are second to none. They communicate well during construction and are good at providing solutions to problems and innovative ideas. The quality and efficiency of their natural wall system is also a key factor in using them. We would strongly recommend using Woodpecker for Timber Frame or Wall Panels.
