Our Log Home Restoration Services
1. Log Home Inspection & Assessment
Before we start any work, we’ll do a thorough check-up on your log home. We look for things like rot, mold, insect damage, and structural issues so we can tackle them head-on and make sure your home stays in top shape.
2. Log Repair & Replacement
If any logs are damaged or rotting, we carefully remove and replace them with high-quality, matching logs or siding, where appropriate. Our goal is to keep your home strong and protected while maintaining its natural charm.
3. Log Home Cleaning & Stripping
Over time, dirt, mildew, and old finishes can make your log home look dull. Sometimes, poor finishes would be best replaced with stains having newer and better technology. We use effective resurfacing methods, like media blasting and chemical stripping, to take the finish off your home without harming the wood.
4. Chinking & Caulking Repair
Gaps in your chinking or caulking can let in drafts, moisture, and pests. We use top-notch materials to seal up those spaces, making your home more energy-efficient and comfortable. We can also install log gap caps around windows and doors for an even tighter seal.
5. Staining & Sealing
A fresh coat of stain or top coat can make all the difference. Although we are open to reapplying existing stain of nearly any type, we highly recommend premium log stains and sealants that protect against UV rays, moisture, and insects while giving your home a stunning finish and lowering maintenance requirements—such as products by Sashco, Inc. and Perma-Chink Systems.
6. Log Home Maintenance & Preservation
Routine maintenance is the secret to a long-lasting and high-functioning log home. We offer inspections, touch-ups, and preventative treatments to keep your home in peak condition year after year.
Signs Your Log Home Needs Restoration
Not sure if it’s time for a restoration? Here are some telltale signs:
Cracked or rotting logs – This could lead to structural problems if ignored.
Fading or discolored stain – Your logs need protection from the elements!
Gaps in chinking or caulking – This can let in drafts, pests, and moisture.
Mold or mildew growth – A sure sign of too much moisture.
Pest damage – Carpenter bees, woodpeckers, and squirrels can wreak havoc.
Drafts and leaks – Poor insulation and sealing can drive up energy costs.
If you spot any of these issues, give The CabinSmiths a call for a professional assessment.
