Of all the log home material options, northern white cedar is clearly the best for its low-maintenance, insulating properties, low shrinkage, and long-lasting beauty.
No other log home material can compare to the rustic, yet elegantv look and feel of a northern white cedar log home. The beautiful golden hue creates a warm and bright interior.
Northern white cedar is a strong, stable wood that grows slow and straight with a “closed cell” structure that does not absorb water. With cedar you avoid the serious problems of shrinking, settling, twisting and checking problems that occur with pine logs.
When you choose to build with northern white cedar you’ll enjoy life-long benefits of a wood that is naturally resistant to mold, mildew, insects and weathering. This eliminates the need for chemical preservatives and insecticides required of pine logs.
A cedar log home always feels warm to the touch on the inside and offers the highest insulating R-value of all wood options. Our solid log walls have a double tongue and groove fit to keep your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer.
