To facilitate the construction of your home, each package includes:
Wood Preservative
All our logs, except cedar, are treated with Tim-Bor®, an EPA-registered, non-toxic wood preservative, which inhibits mildew, decay, and insect infestations. For effective penetration, bundles of pre-cut logs are immersed in an AMICAL™ Flowable and Tim-Bor® solution, allowing the preservative to soak into the wood. We recommend an exterior maintenance program of periodic applications of a high-quality exterior finish to keep your home protected. Properly maintained with an exterior treatment, the benefits of Tim-Bor® are permanent.
Offering high-quality, flexible building solutions supported by decades of expertise, traditional craftsmanship, and modern precision. Learn more about our collaborative approach to designing and building your home.
