New Log Cabins for Home Use

Modern Log Cabin homes are marvels of modern engineering and is second to none, environmentally speaking.

I have seen homes with in excess of 200mm of insulation between log ‘skins’, 300mm in the roof void and 200mm in the floor. In layman’s terms these types of buildings are incredible chap to run and ultra environmentally friendly.

Today’s architects can make designs that are as complicated as any traditional build design, work in a log cabin, and with the sustainable forest method this got to be the way forward.

A typical Log Cabin home specification can be as described under Log cabin specifications.

A Log Home also has other advantages over a traditional build:

Less heat and energy used to manufacture build components
Less Energy to build on site – less time used
Log system can be easy to transport
Less time for drying out (most builds require no drying out time)
