Tall and vaulted living rooms are where beams make the biggest difference, and they are a common sight in Weddington homes.
Weddington is a town in western Union County, a short drive from our shop in Indian Trail. Rooms with 18-foot walls or a cathedral ceiling can feel more like a lobby than a living room; beams bring the scale back down. We build custom ceiling beams near Weddington, and for sloped rooms, beams for tall vaulted ceilings cut to the angle on site.
Tall rooms magnify small errors. We measure the slope, the height at each wall and the peak, and where the framing runs, before anything is built.
A two-story stone or brick fireplace is often the center of these rooms. We also build mantels for Weddington great rooms in the beam wood.

In a two-story room, beams are seen from far below, from the side and sometimes from an upstairs overlook, so size, finish and layout have to work from all three.
| Viewpoint | What people see | What it means for the beams |
|---|---|---|
| The sofa, 15 to 20 feet below | The bottom face and the overall rhythm | Beams must be large enough to read as timber, not trim |
| The doorway or kitchen | The sides of the beams at an angle | Every visible side must be real wood with clean corners |
| An upstairs overlook or loft | The top of any cross beam that hangs below the ceiling | Cross beams below a balcony sightline need a finished top |
| Outside, through tall windows | Beams framed by the glass at night | Line beams up with the window mullions |
We check each sightline at the measurement, including from the stairs and any balcony.
Four steps with one team, about two weeks from material production to installation.
We reply the same business day, usually in minutes during business hours.
