WHY CEDAR?
WOOD YOU WON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT
There’s more than one reason why we use tongue & groove, kiln dried, Northern White Cedar. It’s durability and thermal capacity are superior to that of any other wood, in addition to its “R” factor (a measure of how well substances resist heat transfer). Second, our Cedar is naturally resistant to mold, mildew, insects and rot. It doesn’t easily warp, shrink, splinter, settle or require caulking or chinking saving you from costly upkeep. And lastly, the peace and quiet you’ll enjoy from its unique cellular structure is second to none.
CUSTOMIZATION
PUT DOWN THE PAINTBRUSH
We want you to enjoy every possible moment in your new home. That’s why we offer the option to pre-finish your exterior and/or interior with stain in a climate controlled environment by a certified pre-finisher. This way you can avoid the mess and hassle of having to do it yourself and correctly judge the weather (rain/snow, temperature).
OUR “YES WE CAD” ATTITUDE
Whatever you decide to build (a primary residence, cottage getaway, guesthouse or addition), or whatever method of construction you decide to use, each can be completely custom-designed right down to the cabinets and countertops. Or you can choose to use or modify one of our 63 stock floor plans. Not ready to start from the ground up? Then just add our Cedar log components to the exterior of an existing structure. You’ll still have the log home look on the outside and at a substantial savings.
HOW WE BRING THE HEAT
Because our logs are kiln dried first to remove moisture and then insulated with polystyrene, fiberglass or cellulose, the R-Value is much higher than traditional full log construction. This translates into your future home’s heating and cooling costs being significantly lower each year, while maintenance and the likelihood of possible future structural issues are also greatly reduced. Below are several methods of construction we offer to meet your specific requirements when it comes to quality and price point.
