Log Homes

Maybe it's the pioneer spirit coming to the surface.

Log homes are a popular choice South of Flagstaff Arizona.

It's obvious that those who enjoy log homes are wood lovers... the colors, character, and texture imparts a warm glow and sense of durability to the home.

Whatever each person's reason is, these structures are popular, especially in mountainous, wooded areas. They do blend into their surroundings so well in these areas.

And these days high tech has had an impact on the design and construction that the pioneers just wouldn't believe!

Most of these residences are custom designed and built for the owners. In most cases the logs are fitted and dry-assembled at the log home company's yard to assure it all works... and then it's carefully taken apart.

Each piece is numbered, loaded on trucks in reverse order of construction, and shipped to your site. When the trucks are unloaded and your home assembled, the first piece your contractor needs is now magically on top of the load.

Most log home companies will not cut live trees for logs they supply. Dead, standing trees are preferred overwhelmingly... for both construction and environmental reasons.

While they've always had many fans, log homes are increasing in popularity. You can get close to nature and still live in a warm, snug, energy efficient home.

There are several magazines focusing on log homes. Log Home Living is a good one.
