Log Homes Construction: Photos of a log package from start to finish

The following photos show a log package being built in the construction yard of Falcon Log Homes Ltd. The photos were sent to the customers in order for them to track the building progress of their home. At the bottom of this page, there is information pertaining to what is included in our package price.

INCLUDED IN YOUR LOG HOME PACKAGE:

We provide the log portion of your home, such as the log walls, log staircase and railing, and the logs for the roof system. Also included is one man to assist in the re-assembly of the log package on your foundation. You will need 3-4 people to assist as well, depending upon the size of home. They do not need to have prior experience, and are most often family and friends.

An average sized home takes approx. 8 weeks to build in our construction yard, and 2 days for the re-assembly. We do not take our log packages to turnkey, but will take necessary time to talk to the contractor or subcontractors who will be working on your home.
