ARE REAL LOG HOMES LOGS TREATED AND GRADED?
All finished logs, except cedar, are treated with TIM-BOR, an EPA-registered, non-toxic borate solution that inhibits mildew, decay, and insect attack. Your log home will still require an exterior maintenance program to keep it beautiful and protected. In addition, our logs meet the stringent Log Homes Council grading program. This helps ensure the integrity of your home, and also may be extremely important when it comes time to obtain building permits.
