NH Post and Beam Kit Home Builder Featured on DIY Network Show "Assembly Required"
Yankee Barn Home's crews brave brutal New England winter in special two-part series about building post and beam home.
(PRWEB) August 7, 2005 -- In many parts of the country, icy winter conditions
and below zero temperatures bring home construction crews to a cold halt. But
that's not the case here in New England, where the indomitable Yankee spirit is
alive and well in the construction of a new post and beam house in the dead of
last year's brutal winter.
Yankee Barn Homes of
Grantham, NH, and Millstream Structures of Newport, NH are featured braving the
elements in a two-part series airing on the DIY Network's Assembly Required TV
show on August 14, 2005 and August 21 at 2 pm as they rush to frame and enclose
a post and beam barn-style home in five very cold days.
In this first of two episodes, the crew from Millstream Structures
battles the elements with a post and beam kit from Yankee Barn homes, a young
family decides if prefab is the way to go for their Vermont home, and builders
who specialize in post and beam construction explain how they overcome
challenges to stay on schedule. In the second episode, the crew continues their
struggle against inclement weather as the family pushes forward to complete
their post and beam home before ski season.
The DIY Network is owned by
the Scripps Network and features cable programming for do-it-yourself projects,
including home building; home improvement and woodworking.
