Chinking & Caulking
Our chinking and caulking services prevent air and water infiltration using high-quality sealants and modern elastic chinking products. We address problem areas like knots, cracks, and window joints, offering color-matched finishes for aesthetic consistency. Proper application ensures long-term protection and energy efficiency for log structures.
Historic Restoration
We restore and relocate historic log cabins, preserving their cultural heritage through meticulous documentation and traditional methods. Our team disassembles, tags, and reconstructs cabins while sourcing vintage materials. This service ensures historical accuracy and structural longevity for significant American landmarks.
Expert Witness Services
As licensed contractors, we provide forensic analysis, written reports, and expert testimony for log home-related legal disputes.

We use corn cob blasting to safely remove old finishes from log homes without damaging wood fibers. This environmentally friendly method employs biodegradable media for effective surface preparation before staining or sealing, ensuring a clean, durable base for protective treatments.
