building area and local climate. Check with your local city or county
building officials, which may effect your decision as to size.
Are air dried better than kiln dried Logs?
Log home consumers are often confused by the merits of building
with air-dried or kiln dried lumber. The debate continues throughout
the log home industry. It is important that they are properly dried
whether using natural air dried or artificial heat. This is a customer's
preference of choice.
What about precut logs?
Logs are milled with a double tongue and groove with drip edge
for a snug fit, and are graded by a certified grader before milling.
Most builders prefer random length, giving them the ability to save
on materials and adjust window and door placement during construction..
What are the shipping costs, and where do
you ship from and how far ?

be transported on one truck, however some of the larger models may
need more trucks. Shipping is calculated from several FOB points to
