How are the logs protected from weathering?
Once the roof is on; use brush or airless sprayer to apply a UV and water resistant coating system. We recommend Sikkens Cetol exterior and interior finishes as they have been thoroughly tested and proven to be superior. An initial 3 coats are required, with a recoat every 2 or 3 years on southern and western exposures; 3 to 4 years on northern and eastern exposures. If your own site has heavy weather from a different direction, adjustments should be made.
