| LOG HOME REPAIR IN
MIDWEST UNITED STATES |
|
If you live in the Midwest and need log home repair services,
we can help! The Midwest combines cold winters similar to
the Northeast with humid summers like the southeast. This
is a combination for trouble. Like in the Northeast, you want
to make sure proper chinking and caulking is doing its job
to keep the log home insulated. And similar to the southeast,
moist and damp summer conditions can cause log rot. If you
log home is showing signs of deterioration or discoloration,
contact a professional.
Natural occurrences to watch:
- Sun. Because the sun has a
natural effect on your logs, be sure to have UV protecting
stain applied to your log home. Pay close attention to the
west and south sides of your log home / cabin, as these
angles are likely to get the most sun exposure.
- Water. Like the sun, water
also has a natural effect on your logs. Watch the amount
of water that splashes on your lower logs during rain storms.
Excessive water runoff will cause dirt to collect and keep
your logs damp and more susceptible to log rot, insects,
or black mold.
- Wind. The windy side of your
log home will drive rain directly into your logs as well.
- Together. Combine all these
natural occurrences with a lack of maintenance and you're
in trouble. Be sure to keep a maintenance schedule and keep
your log home as beautiful as the day it was built!
