Wood House Log Homes Products!
We are dedicated to providing the highest quality, graded logs in the industry. All of our logs are made from dead standing lodgepole pine from the Pacific Northwest. These timbers are recognized for their stability, beauty and dryness. All of our logs are graded under the auspices of Timber Products Inspection, a third party grading agency that assures you of the grades and dryness of the logs.
What kind of wood?
Our logs are made from lodgepole pine/Englemann Spruce, which grow in the same forests in the Pacific Northwest. Over 90 percent of our logs qualify for the two highest grades in the grading system, and none fall below the middle grade. All logs are stamped with a “Dry” grade. We also have laminated logs made from Ponderosa Pine or cedar or a combination of the two.
Why Standing Dead Logs?
Standing dead logs are trees that are no longer living or growing (does not harm the environment and no living trees are used) and have remained standing for long periods of time. Because wood from these trees is allowed to dry slowly and naturally, the moisture content is extremely low (8-19%). By choosing Wood House Log Homes, you will receive a product that will not shrink, twist, bow, crook or move appreciably. This means that you will not experience gaps at seams, significant settlement, future structual problems, window and door operating problems and other unsightly wall conditions.
Why is Wood a Good Choice?
Wood is simply the best insulating material known. It has approximately 200,000 tiny air pockets in just one cubic inch. These tiny air pockets mean extra comfort in a log home, and monthly savings on utility bills in both the summer and winter.
Are Log Homes Hard to Maintain?
After a quality sealer is applied to the interior, very little maintenance is required…with an occasional dusting. The exterior of the log cabin requires a quality preservative that provides water repellency and UV light protection. This will need to be re-applied periodically, much the same as paint or stain on wood sided homes.
