About Colonial Restorations.

Tom Green and Brad Green at the Hynes Auditorium Traditional Building Exhibition in Boston.   

Founded in 1981, Colonial Restorations specializes in the structural restoration of post-and-beam houses, barns and other historic timber framed structures.   Colonial Restorations is managed by the father and son partnership of Tom and Brad Green.  Tom is a 1973 graduate of the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and subsequently gained much of his structural expertise working for the railroad, both building tracks and rerailing trains.  In 2000, Tom's son, Brad, joined the business after graduating from Wesleyan University in Middletown.  Growing up in the business, Brad has added his considerable timber frame experience, in addition to his training in computers and economics. Brad and Tom are lifelong students of the restoration of the New England post and beam timber frame and are always learning something new and teaching others at conferences and seminars on the subject.  

Dedicating our skills to the preservation of our historic New England built heritage is a choice we are proud of.  Over the years, we have made connections with a few other professional artisan companies who feel the same way that we do.  Here is a partial list.  If you know that your company should be here, call us and let us know.
