Hand-hewn Cedar Log Home in Tennessee

These home-owners were told by their builder that no finish would ever be needed on their home, as the logs were cedar.  Unfortunately, they soon learned that this is not the case.

The sealants were in poor condition, to the point where  in some places you could reach your hand through a log. After being educated about how stains and caulking/chinking work together, we were able to clean, stain, and reseal their home to return and preserve the natural look of their cedar logs and siding.
