These pieces are bonded together and then milled into the traditional log profile that offers the look and quality of full logs. However, laminated logs offer several distinct advantages over standard full logs to today's builder.
Laminated logs are also far less likely to split as they age.
Strips of insulation and vapor barriers can be inserted between the individual logs, dramatically improving the structure's thermal efficiency. This often saves the builder money, while at the same time allowing him to create a truly custom look by using, for example, pinewood exterior walls and redwood interior walls. Choosing the best log or log combination with which to build is of paramount importance. We at Middleton Timber Inc. offer one of the best logs on the market for sealing out efficiency-robbing outside elements. This style provides for a more rounded look on interiors and exteriors.
