LOG HOMES:
Chances are you're already sold on the natural warmth, beauty and character of log homes. The hard part is selecting the Company you want to team up with to make your Dream Come True. It's a tough decision that will have a profound influence on the outcome of your project, as well as the ease & enjoyment of this daunting process! Over many years of building and owning various log homes, I have found the recent surge in popularity of the Insulated or Half-Log products to be well deserved. This modern concept maintains all the beauty & charm of "full-log" homes, but without the inherent issues such as shrinkage, twisting, maintenance and air infiltration! The incredible strength & energy efficiency of these homes is simply unsurpassed!
I've developed a stringent criteria to ensure a successful outcome for each log home project I am involved in, and I have identified those suppliers that meet this criteria and share my high standards for the superior quality & service that I insist on for my clients, including:
- Multiple Species Choices - Western Red Cedar and Norway (Red) Pine, known for their stunning appearance and superior insulating & durability characteristics; or, the more economical Lodge Pole or Northern White Pine. All timbers are hand-selected for optimal appearance and structural integrity. Structural Grading is available as required.
- Logs are Air and Kiln Dried to an appropriate uniform moisture content. In the arid Colorado climate, dry timbers is a critical factor, to minimize continued shrinkage and "checking" after your home is erected! In addition, timbers are pre-treated at our yard with a EPA-approved non-toxic preservative to protect the logs during construction
- Our Logs comes in Several Styles, Sizes and Profiles, including: full-round, "D" logs, "Timber Logs", Swedish cope, or the rustic-hewn square-cut "Old Frontier" log. Available corner options include: butt & pass, saddle-notch, dovetail or Post corners... All Precision Milled to exact tolerances for tight-fitting joinery. A true "draw knife" hand-peeled finish is standard, for an authentic "rustic" appearance.
