18) Q: What is the difference between your log home and a manufactured log home?
A: There are many differences between a hand crafted log home and a manufactured log home. We personally select, debark and peel each log by hand that goes into every home we build. We build custom designed homes, so you can decide how many bedrooms you want, and the size of your stove and if you want any hidden storage areas in your home. One of the biggest differences is the size of logs we use. The logs we build average 15 inches to 18 inches in diameter with a minimum of a 10-inch top end. We can vary the sizes of logs in your home, or they can be very uniform in size. We are also able to build with large timber up to 30-inch diameter logs upon request. Manufactured logs are all milled by machine, are the exact same size and typically are 8 or 9-inch logs. You can get them up to 12 inches. Handcrafted log homes are also much more energy efficient. The larger the log, the more energy efficient your home will be.
What sets our handcrafted log home apart is that each home is unique. You can use the same blueprint, but you will never build two identical houses. What is special with a handcrafted log home is that the home owner can design their own home, and help with the special accents of that special log for their stairway, interior posts can have character, and we have very talented general contractors, carpenters, and sub contractors that work with home owner to build their individualized dream home.
