 In Early America, log homes were constructed in all parts of the country. Other than the very crudest, temporary structures, the vast majority of those homes were constructed of logs hewn flat on the sides, chinked between the logs, and joined at the corners with some variation of a dovetail-type notch.
We believe that our log homes should authentically reproduce the look, charm, and aesthetics of our forefather's homes. We then combine that basic philosophy with the finest in modern design, engineering, and technical details so that your Hearthstone home is enjoyed for many generations.
Hearthstone has developed a log home which looks much like those 200 year old structures, yet with substantial and continually evolving technical improvements.
Hearthstone’s Traditional Log Home system features 6" x 12" timbers, dovetail corners, hewn or planed finishes, irregularly chamfered edges, and a modern chinking and settling system.
Our Timberwright® Log system features 14" tall logs in various widths (usually 6" or 8") with a very heavy, irregular edge chamfer that mimics the irregular shaped logs of the old log homes - or the Hearthstone Timberlake™ homes. Once again, we can alter the hewing look, the chinking gap, the dovetail corner type, the edge chamfering, log thickness, and other details to achieve different visual effects.
A log home embodies the definitive American soul: the sweat, blood, self-reliance, ingenuity, pride, and unbreakable commitment to doing what must be done. There is a huge reservoir of strong people who believe in America's pride, values, and future. We, at Hearthstone, build that same spirit, tradition, and pride into every home we create.
