Do You Have a Credit or Debt Card in your Purse or Wallet?
Learn to use your eyes when visiting log homes and comparing log home companies. Look at the log wall, will a debt card fit between the logs, the logs stacked to make the wall should have no gaps. The same for the corners, can you slide the credit card into any gaps found? What you should expect to see is no openings or gaps, and that is what you will see in Summit Handcrafted Log and Timber Frame homes, see our videos on line.
