Our Logs

Our logs are milled locally in Western North Carolina , allowing us to maintain a high standard in quality control. All wood used in our homes is of the highest grade available. All of our homes start with hand selected eastern white pine. The logs are kiln-dried to ensure proper moisture content, which will alleviate settling and shrinking, and guarantee stability in construction. Great care is always taken in transportation and distribution of our logs.

One of the most exciting aspects of a log home is the distinct characteristics of the wood itself. Each log is unique, and we hand-select every one of our logs for each home. The way in which handcrafted logs are selected and cut differs greatly from manufactured logs, which stress uniformity. As well, we are able to offer logs that come from dead standing timber that are both milled and hand peeled. All of our logs are cut to fit on-site to ensure quality of all joinery, eliminate construction delays, and ensure proper construction.

All of our logs are cut to length on-site to ensure a tight, square and plumb fit

We take full responsibility for our homes and do not use middleman dealers or distributors who raise their prices before the logs get to you. Other companies, focused on the “status quo,” often overlook rare opportunities for the customer. Our time and dedication to you is the difference. Appalachian Log and Timber Frame takes pride in providing our customers with a quality home at an affordable price.
