PACKAGE DETAILS

 

We believe in giving you the most for your money.  Each Log Package includes the building materials you need to create the exterior of your dream log home - the Log System, the Roof System, the Second Floor System and an 8' deep Porch System.  The three packages differ in the building materials that will be needed to COMPLETE your log home, from matching windows, exterior doors, porch & decking flooring, and interior wall framing. 

STANDARD Package        PLUS Package        PREFERRED Package

Our log system comes in a variety of log styles and sizes, and we allow you to choose among other options when your needs dictate.  We can tailor our complete log package to any floor plan you have in mind.  We want to provide you with the home that fits your needs!


 
Log System
  • Eastern White Pine Logs in a Double Tongue and Groove Log on Log System
  • OlyLog Fasteners
  • Log Splines
  • Foam Tape is used to assist in sealing the air flow as your logs are stacked. 
  • Dovetails (6 x 12 Logs)
  • 2 x 6 Lumber Framing for Windows and Door Openings
  • AND we include the exterior stain/sealant to keep your log home beautiful for years to come!

Log Styles

Which look do you like?  Remember to consider both the exterior AND interior look?

Traditional Confederate Logs are flat on
both the exterior and the interior.  The logs shown here are a 6 x 12 log - for a large log look and enhanced with the large v joint identified with a Confederate log style. The beauty of the log and its grain is enhanced by the stain and sealant used.  They will last a lifetime!

D-Logs are flat on the interior (great for utilizing wall space) and retain the natural roundness of the log on the exterior.  This
6 x 8 log
shown is preferred by many.

A larger D Log is shown here in the 6 x 12 size.  It has been stained in a lighter, more natural color giving the natural grain of the log
a different look. 

The German Chink Joint log shown here is a 6 x 12 log with approximately a 3" joint cut into the log. The chink joint is rounded on the bottom  to allow for easy water runoff and has a natural look which changes the visual dimension.  The joint is left natural as shown here.

The Flat style of this log displays the beautiful chinking detail in the joints to give a true custom look.  The double tongue & groove log shown is flat on both the exterior and interior, but only chinked on the exterior in this shot.  You may choose to chink on both sides of a log - the chinking is topical and does not create a space between logs.  The log is a 6 x 12 Square Chink Log. 

The Hand Hewned 6 x 12 Confederate Log shown to the left is truly a custom look. Each log is hand hewned (at an additional cost) to give this fresh cut look.  Hand Hewning can be combined with chinking for another optional appearance.  Hand Hewning can be added to both the exterior and interior of the log as well as beams. 

 

Second Floor

  • 6 x 12 Girder Beams (Those are the beautiful beams you see from the first floor - See the ducks on the beams?)
  • 4 x 8 Loft Joists (They run vertically in the picture)
  • 2 x 6 Tongue & Groove Decking (This serves as the first floor ceiling as well as the unfinished second floor - just add sealer.)
  • 6 x 6 Support Posts
