FAQs
🪵 How much does it usually cost?
Pricing depends on the condition of the home, square footage, and what needs to be done. A full restoration typically falls between $20,000 and $150,000. Smaller repairs or maintenance projects cost less. Once we assess your home, you’ll get a clear and detailed quote with no surprises.
🕒 What’s the timeline for a typical project?
A smaller cabin usually takes five to seven days. Larger homes or jobs involving log repair can take two to four weeks. We factor in weather and logistics to make sure everything runs smoothly and on schedule.
🔨 What’s your process to remove old stain?
We use dry media blasting, which strips away old coatings and surface damage without soaking the logs. Unlike pressure washing, it avoids forcing moisture into the wood, which helps prevent long-term issues like rot or mold.
🎨 Can I choose my stain color?
Yes, we offer a wide range of colors from natural light tones to deep, rich browns. If you’re unsure, we can do a sample directly on your logs to help you decide.
💬 What if something goes wrong later?
We offer a two-year craftsmanship warranty and a satisfaction guarantee. If anything we worked on fails under normal conditions, we’ll fix it. We stand behind our work and treat your home like it’s our own.
💵 What are your payment terms?
We break payments into five equal parts of 20 percent, paid throughout the project:
- – to hold your spot
- – when we begin on-site
- – once blasting or prep is done
- – when we begin applying finish
- – after final walkthrough and approval
🧾 What payment methods do you accept?
We accept checks and cash.
