Custom Log Homes with Your Personal Touch

 


Construction
 

The construction of the shell of your new log home is very important. You only get one chance to do it right. A few mistakes during the shell construction can cause problems for you in the future.  From the foundation to the roof, the building must be assembled correctly.  Special tools and equipment are required.  Speed is important, as you want to protect the logs as soon as possible to prevent additional work in the future.  Even at the early stages, finishing touches need to be considered.  We can build your shell and also help you finish it.

Our own staff carpenters who do the log work and have been skilled in the art of log home construction.  A conventional framer or carpenter may lack some of the skills necessary or may not have had the experience of working with log systems. When a new carpenter comes to work with us it takes some time to learn and understand the unique properties of a log home. We like to hire carpenters who have some trim skills, as we build the rough.  This helps with the finish trim.

The balance of the skilled trades are people we have worked with in the past. They have been educated on the finer points of the log system and have the skills to provide the special tricks that make a home better. They understand the pitfalls that can cause a problem when the house settles and make it unnoticeable to you. They also have the creativity to make your home as special as you want it.
