Road Log Homes feature a patented, four-way interlocking corner to eliminate the need for ugly
caulking. Our homes are pre-drilled and we provide all materials needed to erect the log home kit.
Please note the size of our logs when compared to the most popular log used
today. Our logs are 8"x12" compared to the 6'x8" log offered by others. The following is a scale
drawing comparison.
 Our post and beam interior construction which is
included in every log home package consists of 8"x12" drop beams and 8"x12" support posts. The
ceiling joists which double as floor joists for the second floor are 4"x12"... massive indeed when
compared to other log home packages. You will never experience any swag or twist in our
construction. A special cut log is mitered in the factory to receive every ceiling joist. COUNTRY
ROAD LOG HOMES features a "four way lock corner." It is a part of the patented inter-locking
corner. The logs which make up the wall cannot move in either direction. Not only does this
eliminate any shifting, it makes the log kit easier to build and insures a plumb wall.
But the most radical and greatest feature of the Country Road log wall is the continuous "through
rod wall construction." At the factory, each log is pre-bored - (sixteen inches on center). When
the logs are stacked according to the blueprint, the holes are inline. Our logs are not spiked or
nailed together. The logs are simply stacked to the complete height of the wall…then a 5/8"
threaded rod is inserted from top to bottom…sixteen inches on center along the complete length of
the wall. When the rods are tightened, obviously the compression realized is tremendous. However,
here is the main benefit. Because of the unique design and innovation, the wall can be tightened
again a year from now after all shrinking and settling is over. This eliminates the major problem
with log homes today…the gapping between the logs allowing air and water infiltration.
You never have this problem with a properly constructed COUNTRY ROAD LOG HOME. There are too many
other features to insert on this web site. Call for the free information for your further study.
Or better still, ask for our complete package for only $12.00. This package includes color
pictures, floorplans, and much more information.
BUILDABILITY
 The COUNTRY ROAD LOG HOME is the simplest log home
package to erect in the industry today. If you can stretch a string, read a level, insert a
threaded rod and attach a nut and washer, YOU CAN BUILD A COUNTRY ROAD LOG HOME. Every log is
pre-cut, pre-bored, pre-numbered at the factory. There are no spikes to drive or struggling to
keep the wall plumb and straight. It is almost impossible to erect our log wall erroneously. Let
us prove that to you! It is a perfect project for the "do it yourself person" and by so doing, a
tremendous amount of money can be saved in building your dream home.
SALEABILITY
A completed COUNTRY ROAD LOG HOME is a thing of beauty. Log homes in general sell for more than a
conventional home. This is due to the uniqueness, not everybody has a log home. In fact, there are
few on the market. Check your local real estate listings to prove this point. Those who live in a
log home never want to leave it. They only leave, in most cases, to build a larger one! Conduct
your own test. Ask around. Ask your friends and co-workers who are looking to buy or build if they
would like to have a "state of the art" log home. You will be amazed at the percentage who would
buy a log home today if it was ready to move in.
No other log home company can offer you the technology
which COUNTRY ROAD LOG HOMES can offer…a technology that assures you of a log home that will
appreciate in value year after year. Our engineers have developed exclusive features virtually
eliminating the major problems that continue to plague others in the log home industry. We have a
US patent to prove it!
FINANCEABILITY
We have never had a problem financing our log homes for qualified buyers. In fact, we can even
arrange financing for the "do it yourself builders." |
