Generally included in the cost of your Log Home or Log Cabin shell is one or more on site technical advisors for the complete re-erecting of your log home, however it is not uncommon for a homeowner to handle this part of the process themselves. The logs are numbered and tagged before disassembly and a basic 4 corner shell can be re-erected in 2 to 3 days depending on the size. We are open to any scenario that you want to include in your contract and have never had any two buildings play out the same. It is a custom building as well as a custom experience from start to finish.
