We provide a variety of log styles

Appalachian Logs
Appalachian Logs

The 6x12 T&G stack log is an excellent choice for traditional Appalachian style exterior and interior with chink slot, or Canadian style, heavy V-Joint inside and out. Either style can also be ordered hand hewn for a more rustic look. With the Appalachian style (Type 1) chinking is used to fill the chink slot, just as with old time log cabins. Corners can be Dovetail or Butt & Pass. Choose from smooth planed, rough sawn or hand hewn inside and outside surfacing. Also available with or without chink joint on inside or outside.

All log systems can incorporate a high quality foam tape between the log courses to ensure an energy efficient home. For fastening the logs together, builders usually insert lag bolts into smaller logs and thru-bolts into larger logs. Harmony Exchange also estimates and provides all the hardware necessary for your project. For optimal stability, you can use Compression Pak Assemblies in conjunction with your fasteners.

Round & Round, Tongue & Groove Logs

The Saddle Notch log is growing rapidly in popularity. With its traditional solid log corners and round log look both inside and out, it has the true "log look". Harmony Exchange offers the double tongue and groove, round and round profile. The added benefits of foam tape and the compression fastening system make the saddle notch corner log an energy efficient log wall choice. Harmony Exchange offers this log with several pre-cutting options.

Option 1: Linear footage of logs.
Option 2: Notched corners only with linear footage of logs.
Option 3: Notched corners and trimmed ends.
Option 4: Total pre-cut from your plans. Logs numbered for stacking.

D-Style Logs

Shown below are just a few samples of profiles available from Harmony Exchange. D-Style logs work well with Butt & Pass and Dovetail corner styles. Harmony Exchange also offers log siding to match your log style for covering the foundation bands and gable ends of your log home. If the exact log style your looking for is not shown here, please call Harmony Exchange or send a photograph or magazine clipping, and in most cases, we can provide the style you want.
