Log Home Restoration | FAQs

---

Common signs include fading stain, peeling or flaking finish, checking (cracks) in the logs, soft or rotting wood, insect damage, water stains, mold, or visible gaps in the caulking or chinking.

Most log homes should be inspected annually and typically require maintenance or refinishing every 3–7 years, depending on climate, sun exposure, and the products previously used.

We provide log home  and wood restoration. Services include media blasting, power washing, staining, painting, chinking and caulking, log repair and replacement, rot repair, wood preservation, deck restoration, brick and concrete sealing.

Media blasting safely removes old stain, dirt, mildew, and weathered wood without damaging the logs, creating the ideal surface for new stain and protective finishes.
