Log Home Siding

Log Crafters from Montana have a long history of building Log Cabins, the weather and the availability of wood in the area are some of the reasons why Montanians are proud of their Log Crafting skills. It comes naturally for fellow Log Crafters from Montana.

Log Crafters from Montana are known for their workmanship. To give a quick run down, some of the areas they are better off than the rest are as follows.

DESIGN: Log Crafters from Montana, especially big cities like Helena, Great Falls and Butte are specialized in providing custom log siding, crafting services, they are also well equipped with CAD shop drawings and engineering.

FABRICATION: Montana’s skilled log craftsmen create components using hand hewing (cutting wood) and scribing methods. Corbels, complex trusses, timber and log stairs, and accent pieces are among many diverse products. Lot of the shops have state of the art equipment in combination with traditional hand tools enable the artisans work.

ASSEMBLY: With transportation system very well adapted for woodwork, custom packages are shipped anywhere. Many shops also offer timberwrights and log crafters to travel to the destination point to assure quality installation and assembly. Who else can do a better job in installing a log cabin than the resource who designed it.

LOG AND YARD MILLS: Many Montana log crafters have direct access to large inventory of logs and timbers, including standing dead and reclaimed materials. In case of smaller woodwork shops they arrange a syndicate through which they get the logs and timbers for subsidized pricing.

CUSTOM MILLING: Antique, reclaimed siding, exterior and interior trim, millwork, cabinetry, built-ins and custom doors are among the log crafters production capabilities.

Some folks claim that Vinyl Log Siding can give you the look of logs with the ease of vinyl siding. Let me ask you something.

Does this home look like plastic to you?

It sure does to me. But maybe I’m biased because we sell a high quality product that is made of wood that is meant to give new homes and remodels the high quality look of rustic logs.

Ahh, the look of rustic logs. This is why I love Montana.

Although we’ve been in operation for awhile now in Montana sometimes I find it frustrating to come to grasp with the local product sales development. Most of our sales are out of state and sometimes I wish we could find a way to drive up sales. Hopefully a stickier web presence will do just that.

I also believe a diversification of our product line to focus more on what makes Montana great will also help. By far our most popular product lately has been our Quarter Log Siding in the Pine Variety.

It seems like in Montana the web is so far behind, however local word of mouth sales continue to keep our busines doing really well.  The summer months are always the best as people are out doing all their DIY Home Improvement Products.
