Our homes are built primarily with Engelmann Spruce, Douglas Fir and Lodgepole Pine, although we use Western Red Cedar on occasion. The logs we use are an average of 12-16 inches in mean diameter, and the tight-grained timber is between 80 and 140 years old. We put a high priority on sustainable forestry; Canada's Log People selectively harvests its own timber from designated forestry areas, which are then replanted within two years. We put back what nature gave us. The majority of our log harvesting is done in the winter when the sap is down. The logs are then air-dried through the year to a desired moisture content of 20 percent or less. As a further measure of quality, over 95 percent of our timber meets the highest premium/select grade standard of the Timber Products Inspection grading agency.
We provide a 40-page construction and maintenance manual for our valued clients when they confirm an order with us.
A handcrafted home built by Canada's Log People will be a source of pride and
satisfaction for many years to come. Let us or one of our professional
representatives make your dream home become a reality.

built our first log home over 34 years ago, our goal
has been to use the best materials, best building practices and the best

Are you looking to build a home that is truly unique, handcrafted and a style that is proven to stand the test of time? A log cabin home is the answer. With traditional post and beam construction that gives an open aired feeling and using timbers or solid log walls, this creates an ambiance of a beautiful home. We have the perfect log home plans for everything from a dream log cabin home or a family vacation home at the lake.
Picking the perfect designer and builder to build timber frame houses and cottages can be a difficult task. Unlike traditional residential building, building handcrafted log homes from scratch takes years of experience that has been handed down from generations.
