About Our Logs

Moose Log Homes Logs are machined round, then double tongue and grooved with saddle-notched corners. They are end-notched in windows and door openings. We pre-cut them for any floor-plan. The logs are all fastened together with completely threaded thru-bolts. Thru-bolts can be tightened as the logs settle, allowing all the logs to settle evenly.

Under construction 2 We place two strips of foam tape between each row of logs, and a foam gasket between each saddle. We cut our logs from live trees. You get a fresh, clean, white logs. We use Eastern White Pine. We can kiln dry the logs if you so desire.

The log poles can be milled or hand-peeled. We also offer 2" X 6" tongue and groove and ridged foam for roof insulation. Local lumberyards or home centers can supply you with the rest of the materials you would need. They can usually deliver the materials to your job site for considerably less money than from a Log Home company.

We also offer matching siding for gable ends and dormers, as well as the following log components:

Constructing with hoist Construction of a Moose Log Home log package is a snap. Our logs come pre-cut and lettered with a wall plan showing where each log goes. You do not need to have prior experience with log homes to build one of our homes.

The use of a hoist to set the logs and on-site assistance is available. The cost for the hoist and one person to supervise and assist in the erection of the log walls is $500.00 per day, plus traveling days.
