Log Home Kits
In today’s world, an environmentally friendly, energy efficient house is much more than a dream; it’s practically a necessity. With climbing energy prices, a home that doesn’t cost the earth to heat is on everyone’s wish list, and with one of our log home kits, you can achieve just that. Your log home will be very energy efficient, so you won’t need to worry about those fuel bills. You can also be confident that our log home kits meet the new building regulations.
The actual method of heating and ventilating your new home is entirely up to you, but you’re unlikely to need a log burner as you’d be too warm!
There’s no need for deep and expensive excavations either, instead you can use insulated raft foundations that not only have a lower carbon footprint, but are also faster to put in place.
If this is all music to your ears, you’ll be glad to know that we’re experts in helping people who would LOVE a self-build log house. Our comprehensive log home kits are ideal for your self-build project, as they include almost everything that you’ll need to complete the basic structure of your beautiful log home. This will save you loads of hassle, freeing you from spending time and effort on estimating materials and measuring up, and allowing you to quickly get on with building and fitting out your dream home. Everything you need will arrive by truck, ready to unload and start construction.
What's in Our Log Home Kits?
Typically, your log home kit will include:-
- External log walls, cut to length and notched ready for assembly. Log sizes start from 95x160mm log, with a range of larger sizes available. Different corner joint options are also available, depending on the log size. Ask us for more information.
- Timber framework to take wall insulation (usually 200mm for residential log homes)
- Interior log panelling (or plasterboard, or a mix)
- 95mm studwork for internal walls (to be cut on site)
- Triple glazed timber / aluminium windows (other options may be available depending on design)
- Highly insulated and weather sealed external doors
- Internal doors supplied as door sets
- Architraves / mouldings
- Specialist fixings for use in the build
A log home is constructed by fixing one log on top of another, joining at the corners. This makes for a really strong structure (which explains why log homes are excellent in earthquake areas!). You can choose the overall appearance of your log home, by using different log sizes and corner joint options. Some alternatives are shown in the pictures below, ask us for more details.


Beyond Our Log Home Kits
As an option with your log home kit, we can include beautiful profiled metal roofing which can either look like pantiles, or a more contemporary standing seam roof. If you’re keen to build your log home to passive standards, our manufacturer can supply an additional full sealing kit so that your home can be made virtually airtight.
There are some basics you will need to source for yourself, like insulation, nails and screws, but most importantly, you will need to decide in advance where you want to put things like the bathrooms and the kitchen, because all services need to be brought into the house through the foundations (you don’t want to breach those lovely airtight walls!).
You’ll also have the freedom to plan your own kitchen so it’s perfectly suited to you and your family, remembering again to specify the wiring for your electrician so that everything is designed in advance.
