east county oak, llc

East County Oak is a timber framing shop in Athens, Georgia, that designs and builds custom timber frames for residential and commercial applications. The company creates structural and decorative timber pieces for homes, barns, cabins, workshops, outdoor spaces, tiny homes, and garden sheds, as well as custom timber accents that complement conventionally built structures. East County Oak's work showcases the aesthetic qualities of timber framing, combining exposed structural elements with fine craftsmanship using oversized materials that reveal geometric detail and create open interior spaces.

Founded in 2015 by Andrew McFadden, the company draws on his background in residential construction and training in fine furniture building and timber framing from institutions including the North Bennet Street School in Boston and the American College of the Building Arts in Charleston. Timber frames built by the company are designed to be long-lasting, heirloom-quality structures capable of lasting centuries with proper maintenance.
