Taylor Morrison is one of the largest home building companies in the United States. The company formed when Taylor Woodrow and Morrison Homes joined forces in July 2007. TWR’s partnership with William Lyon Homes is what led us to begin working with Taylor Morrison. We were working on some legacy projects for WLH when they were acquired by Taylor Morrison in 2020. Since then we have signed up five new projects with Taylor Morrison directly. Those jobs were: Verbena, Aspen Court, Lyric, Serrano & Viola – we have been in partnership with Taylor Morrison Homes ever since. George Dawald is TWR’s VP of Project management, he works directly with Taylor Morrison. When asked about TWR’s relationship with Taylor Morrison, he says, “We really appreciate the work that Taylor Morrison brings our way, we are grateful for each and every project – we really seem to work well together.” Notably, Dawald says, “I really enjoy working with Mike and Diana in purchasing, they are good people and easy to talk to”. We look forward to working with Taylor Morrison in the future and sharing our united vision of a Commitment to Excellence and a Will to Succeed!

With the start of the new year upon us, TWR Framing is looking forward to celebrating our 40th anniversary. Throughout the upcoming year we will begin highlighting several of the company’s major milestones that have made TWR what they are today. In addition we will celebrate the people, places and things that have helped TWR achieve all of their benchmarks of success. We look forward to this upcoming year and sharing several pieces of TWR’s history.
We are pleased to bring you an extra special project highlight this month. TWR framing has teamed up with Woodside homes to produce this very unique project: Shawood at Sommers Bend in Temecula. This product utilizes several building techniques that are outside the traditional wood framed home building process. The design of these homes employs a particular type of post and beam construction, with the addition of stainless steel pin insertion at main joints. This job sets the tone for for the future of homebuilding with the inclusion of new technologies, sustainable design and increased safety for homeowners in Southern California. To see how some of these features are employed be sure to click on the video below.
Another aspect of our business is the maintenance of equipment and machinery that is used daily at TWR jobsites. One group of machinery is our Cut Off Saws which are used at the start of any phase of a project. Recently our warehouse team has spent time refurbishing these saws. New paint, new numbers and tune ups and what a great job!
TWR Framing has been working with Beazer Homes for close to 25 Years. Beazer USA was actually established one year after TWR opened its doors in 1984. However, Beazer’s roots actually go much deeper than that. Beazer homes has a long history from England as far back as the 1600s – There are not many homebuilders that can say that. Over the years we have framed a lot of houses for Beazer and made several great friendships along the way – even after the projects were complete. We continue to partner with Beazer, year after year. We are currently framing two projects for them now, Boulder Creek in Wildomar and Hillcrest @ Overlook in Riverside. Thank you for all of the projects you have sent our way and we appreciate your business!
Estimator Dave Rivera started with TWR in 2003. Working as an assistant to project manager Kevin Schuder, Dave quickly moved up the ranks to estimator and has enjoyed that position for close to 20 years. He learned takeoffs, estimates, and everything he needed to know for a successful career at TWR. This was Dave’s first and only job in the construction industry and he attributes that to his experience with TWR. He says that the consistency they have provided in an industry that is usually less than consistent, has provided 2 decades of stability – he has never worried about TWR’s strength even through the industries most severe challenges. Congratulations Dave on this Important Career Milestone!
