This has been a very busy summer so I haven't been updating as much as I should have.
Pictures below are of a very nice Log Home in Nekoosa, WI that need to be cleaned and stained.
This home was finished in July 2016

We finished this Log Home in the beginning of June. We enjoyed working with the owners on this project. Instead of me filling you in on all the details I am attaching a letter we received from the home owner about this project. I did delete their last names for privacy.


 Dan, Karen and I just want you to know that the work completed by Crew Chief Bruce Jackson and crew, Mick, Josh, and at the latter end, Alex, was excellent.  Although it took longer then expected, our home looks great and these fellows were a pleasure to have around here doing the work.  They were well organized and professional.  Each night, everything was cleaned up and equipment stowed in a very orderly manner.

 

As is usual with work of this type, challenges arose, and they met them well.  The removal and replacement of the large beam below the turkey tracks on the front porch was probably the most challenging they faced but not the only one.  It took a team approach to handle it all.  Ask Bruce to show you the pictures leading to the resolve.  You will get a chuckle, but recognize that they all pitched in to the near nth degree to bring it all about.

 

What a crew.  No wonder that your firm is so highly recognized for the work centering on rejuvenating log homes as well as building them.

 

I would be remiss if I didn't mention Al Miller.  He was always close by to keep us in the loop at the outset, and, answer questions for us during the days that followed.  He has a great personality that complements your overall team.

 

It definitely was a pleasure doing business with your firm and its employees who are truly "craftsmen" and "gentlemen".  We look forward to doing business with you, Al, and your firm in the future.

 

                                                                               Sincerely.

 

                                                                           Mel  & Karen

This was an awesome project working with a great couple in the Necedah, Wisconsin area. We were contacted late in 2015 as the home owner had some concerns on the stain peeling off his log home. After some investigation we found that whoever did the original caulking had caulked almost all the surface of the logs. This caused the stain adhesion to fail and start peeling off. The log home had rotted logs and posts that need to be replaced also. The home had to be media blasted to get the old stain off then the whole house had to be hand sanded to remove all the excess caulk. The Log Home turned out great and the home owners decide to go with a slightly darker color.












The Log Home Doctors had a rush order from a previous customer. They had put the property up for sale and need a top coat on the home. This was a short order and we made it happen for the customer in 3 days. The home owner contacted The Log Home Doctors over the weekend and need a rush to get the project done. After talking with the home owner and taking a look at the job we pulled one of our crews and started on the house that Monday. We cleaned and stained the house for the owner in 3 days. This is an unusual request and glad we could get it done.






 Our crew started early and stayed late to finish the project on time. This home was done at the end of May 2016
This log home is in the middle of the state and had water leak issues. We found problems with the gutters on the house and bad logs that need to be replaced. The stain had to be custom matched as the home owner didn't have the old stain information. We finished this house in the middle of May, 2016

This Log Home was finished on April 25th. This is a home that was newly purchased and the new owners wanted a top coat of stain on the home. The decks had some issues as the previous owner had used the wrong product on the deck and it was failing. There was also an arch over the driveway that had been painted that the new owners wanted changed back to stain so you could see the wood grain. This house has a beautiful setting in northern Wisconsin.










We have been very busy this spring so haven't had a chance to update the board.
Since the end of March we have multiple Log Homes that we finished with repair and staining.
Please see the pictures.
The first house had log replacement then we color matched the stain for the repair. We also rebuilt the screen porch with new screens and trim.
