everyone that i know that owned a log home will never own another.
build one in the woods ,they don't get enough sun to keep them from rotting.
Yep - exactly.. And maintenance (recoating with wood preservative) is an annual chore and can run into serious bux.. BTDT, NA.
And I have noticed how some new companies have sprung up advertising 'rotted log replacement'.. I can't help but wonder what it costs to replace even ONE log.. I would bet that, in some cases, ten grand might (I say "might") cover it..
And you can bet yer sweet bippy no 'homeowners' policy' will cover bupkis of THAT bill..
