Built on Tradition. Driven by Craftsmanship
Our story began in 1996, when Earl and Bette Cook founded the company with a simple but powerful vision: to build trusses the right way — with integrity, precision, and a deep respect for the craft. What started as a small, family-run operation quickly earned a reputation for quality, reliability, and a genuine commitment to serving builders and homeowners alike.
In 2018, the company was acquired by a local framing firm that shared the same hands-on values Earl and Bette established decades earlier. Today, we continue their legacy — taking a framer’s approach to truss design and production. That means every truss is engineered not just to meet specs, but to make sense on the job site — designed by people who understand how it feels to raise a wall, set a truss, and make it all fit perfectly.
From the start, our goal has been to combine old-fashioned craftsmanship with modern precision. We invest in advanced design technology and manufacturing tools, but we never lose sight of what truly matters: building structures that stand the test of time.
Nearly three decades later, our mission remains unchanged — to honor the values of Earl and Bette Cook by providing our partners with dependable products, real-world expertise, and a dedication to doing things the right way.
