As a more energy-efficient alternative to solid log construction, we offer insulated log construction.
These energy efficient laminated logs virtually eliminate several problems associated with solid log construction: shrinkage, settling and splitting. They are built perfectly straight, and stay that way – no more bowing or twisting.
The kiln drying process kills any fungus or insects living in the wood. Depending on the type of foam insulation used, R-value can vary from R-5 to R-7 per inch. Logs are available in sizes from 6″ to 12″, with lengths up to 24′.
Several corner options are available, and we can get them as a precut package or in random lengths. These are t&g laminated logs made with kiln dried wood, can have smooth or hand-hewn face, and are available in D-shaped, flat/flat or round/round profile. They can be made with Eastern White Pine, Western Red Cedar, Eastern White Cedar, or a combination (for instance, cedar exterior and pine interior).
