Many look to their log home as a place of respite from the
rest of the world and some call it their everyday home. Yet, that peace can be
shattered by a group of common problems that can lead to big headaches if not
taken care of.
Arm yourself with knowing the warning signs so you can take
the necessary steps to stop the problems in their tracks.
Protect Your Log Home!
Every once and a while take the time to inspect the foam
panels in your ceiling. If there are holes in them, you might have carpenter
ants creating tunnels to move in and around your home.
To fix and prevent this from happening, use borate infused
panels in your log home and if that doesn’t work you might have to invest in a
Bug Kit.
Also, take the time to walk around the house and look for
any holes in the wood as these are breeding spots for wasps and bees. To
prevent this, clean out the holes and fill them with either caulk or chinking.
One common problem with log home could be water spots on the
deck. To fix this you could either use a wood cleaner and clean the deck or
simply strip the finish and reapply it after everything is dry.
