True North Log Homes is a custom manufacturer, which uses only factory trained and approved contractors.  True North can design, manufacture and build any log home you desire.   Almost all log homes are beautiful in appearance and have romantic appeal, but not all log homes and packages are the same.  Listed below are a series of points, which show True North’s quality.  You will understand why we chose them for our mountain developments.

• The most technologically advanced log home with state of the art designs and 14 patents issued and 5 pending.  These patents correct the problems historic in log homes and help ensure a home will have a long life with minimum maintenance, maximum value and longevity for the investment;

• True North Log Home provides the industry’s only 25-Year Zero Air Infiltration Warranty.   Ask what other log home manufactures do about this problem.  If they say it is not a problem, then they should be happy to provide a warranty; Always compare the total assembled home cost not just the package cost;

• NO caulking or chinking; a 2000 SF home with 8” logs has about one mile of joinery; air leaks can and do occur within the traditional joinery.   Once you start to caulk it never ends;

• All logs have patented key lock joinery—NO screws, bolts or nails, which can cause air leaks;

• Six patented seals between each log and additional patented seals in the corners so no air leaks;

• Self adjusting spring loaded Thru-Bolt system allow the natural expansion and contraction of logs;

• With True North’s technology a home erects quickly, which means savings to you in labor costs;

• True North uses only 100 plus year old Canadian slow growth, winter cut, white pine, healthy trees;

• Slow growth trees mean higher density logs, which means better home insulation and less settling;

• All logs are rated furniture grade; not just log grade like other log home manufacturers;

• NO kiln dried logs are ever used;

• Only True North applies 50% of the UV primer coat at the factory. This protects against wood destroying fungi, insect infestation, sap stain, mildew and weather while the home is being built;

• NO damaging bleaching, pressure cleaning or sanding of logs is necessary after a True North home is built;

• The environmentally safe UV primer coatis applied immediately after milling while the log is the cleanest and cell structures are the most respective; so penetration up to 1 ½” versus ¼” to ½” as normally seen in  the log home industry;

• The Water Borne Natural Oil Finish is a hybrid providing the penetrating advantages of traditional solvent-based products but with the environmental benefits of water-base technology;

• All logs are a full measure 12’ in height; which means three less log stacks required and therefore less settling, this also means you get all the log that you pay for;

• Patented “Penta-post Corners means True North can design and build almost any home design.
