Developer reviews on houses made of logs

Built a house from logs
A comment
My wife and I decided to move out of town, to build a small but comfortable house. I did not want to buy a finished house, because still has to be done for us. I chose a rounded log as a material for construction. The thing is that today this material is at the peak of popularity. This is not surprising because the tree has always had an excellent reputation: reliable, environmentally friendly and affordable material.

I have never regretted that I chose this material. The only thing I want to advise before construction: be sure to pay attention to the degree of wood drying, if it is not dry enough, then after a while the house will begin to walk with size. ”
pros
saving money, reliability, environmental friendliness, a round log has the same dimensions, which is very convenient during construction
Minuses
the house shrinks over time, the construction process is not very fast
Term of use
more than three years

Environmental friendliness and durability of the service are the main selection criteria.
A comment
About a year ago, I completed the repair and moved into the house from a log. I must say right away that it’s expensive, I understand it perfectly, but it’s a lifelong investment, so to speak, such houses (if everything is built correctly and the tree worked correctly) have served for hundreds of years. This was one of the main selection criteria precisely from the log being built. Secondly, it is an environmentally friendly material in itself (it is processed there with all kinds of stains and other things, but the foreman said that this will not affect the quality and purity of natural material). Almost a year passed outside and nothing has changed inside - the logs did not twist, not one cracked, the house is very warm and these logs add extra comfort. The main thing is to find a good person who can assemble such a house. As for the construction, everything is relatively simple there, the beam itself, a footcloth (this is what all kinds of antiseptics are put between the logs) + a good foreman and the thing is in the hat. The house grew before our eyes.

A comment
Probably every pensioner and person preparing to become him, each of them dreams that he will have his own little house in the village and at least sometimes he can go there to relax, well, at least before the cold. Believe me, I am not an exception, and several years ago I also wanted such a life, and I immediately began to persuade my husband to buy a house in the village. Of course, he didn’t agree for some time, but then I was able to convince him, and together we began to think about how to start building a house.
To say that we have been choosing for a long time from what to build a house is to say nothing.For all the time we went through a huge bunch of options. We were also interested in the reviews of those who already have their own homes. We also phoned a lot of different construction companies, visited various exhibitions, trying to find out everything about building a house.

We chose an interesting house-tower, it consisted of logs, and we can say we fell in love with this house and wanted the same for ourselves. I think that at that moment this choice seemed to us the most successful, because it is both price and quality. We were completely satisfied with everything and, of course, I listened to my husband’s words that for the construction there are only two materials, a log and a brick. We also examined the area on which the house will be built. Having well discussed and weighed everything, we decided to build just such a house.
pros
cheaply, in comparison with other materials, retains heat for a long time, environmental friendliness, internal decoration is not required.
Minuses
low fire safety, high maintenance requirements.
Term of use
more than three years
