Log Species

First and foremost, log and timber frame homes are environmentally friendly.
Log Homes take less money to keep cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Log homes may be expected to perform from 2.5% to over 15% more energy efficiently compared to an identical wood-frame home.
Log Homes are quiet. Log Homes significantly reduce noise and/or noise pollution, which are not as easily achievable in a traditional wood-frame house.
Log Homes are safer. Log walls have a unique insulating response within the charred wood which produces a slow rate of flame spread along the wood surface. Unlike conventionally framed houses, log structures have no concealed cavities for fire to travel through, making them a "top choice for endurance and integrity in a fire.
An appraisal of a log home can, in some cases, be up to thirty percent higher than the building costs.
Log homes are nearly maintenance-free, for more kid proof.
Log Homes are incredibly durable. Some European log homes still in use date back more than 800 years. A log home will benefit not only you, but many generations of your family to come.
