Log Profiles
Below is a description of the different log types we use to build your home. For a complete listing of floorplans and further information, browse the floor plans. Be sure to check out our Photo Gallery to see some of the homes we have built in the past.
Genesis Log
The Genesis log is a big 6"x12" log that gives you that Appalachian feel but with no interior chinking. The exterior surface of the log is rough textured and has a groove at one edge that can be finished with chinking, or without it as desired. The interior surface is smooth and enhances the massive feeling so characteristic in this log style. Dovetail corners complement the look and ensure a tight fit. The logs are locked together with a large single tongue and groove, and a foam gasket and wood-binding sealer are applied between each course before fastening.
Milled-D Log
Our 8"x8" Milled-D log is planed smooth on all sides for a beautiful appearance. This log system also features an inserted corner notch and a milled drip edge. These time-tested methods of joinery ensure an air-tight seal that keeps the outside elements outside. The logs are locked together with a large single tongue and groove, and a foam gasket and wood-binding sealer are applied between each course before fastening.
Original Chinked Log
Nothing offers the true feeling of rustic log home living better than our Original chinked log system. This 6"x10" log features a rough-textured exterior surface, a smooth interior surface, and the traditional look of chinked log joint. This log system is constructed with a solid spline between each log course, and chinking material is applied on both the interior and exterior sides of the wall. Dovetail corners complement the look and ensure a tight fit. This log may also be hand hewn for the authentic look of a "real" log cabin. The logs are sealed with a large single tongue and groove and fastened together.
Interlocking Round
We are so proud of the corner design in this log system, we included it in the name. Better than a traditional saddle notch, the interlocking corners in the 8"x8" round log offers a design unsurpassed in strength and "sealability". The logs are locked together with a large, single tongue-and-groove. A foam gasket and sealer are applied between each course before the logs are fastened together with screws. The full round log is planed smooth on all sides, giving that "Western" feel to any design.
6x8 D Log
The 6x8 D-Log is an attractive option for those building a log home on a budget. Like it's big brother it is planed smooth on the interior and exterior, and is assembled with a butt-and-pass corner system with an inserted corner notch. The logs are fastened together with large Oly-log fasteners, and a foam gasket and sealer ensures an overall weather tight construction.
6x12 Dovetail D-Log
Introduced as a response to popular demand, the 6x12 Dovetail D-Log is quickly becoming a favorite of those seeking a truly authentic look for a log home. The large 6x12 logs are round on the outside and flat on the inside, with a single tongue and groove, foam gasket, and sealer complementing an Appalachian style Dovetail system ensuring tight corners and strong construction. These logs can also be hand-hewn for maximal aesthetic appeal.
Big Sky Log
Do you love the look of the large rustic lodges nestled in the majestic landscapes of the Northwest? You can have that same stately style for your new log home with the Big Sky log style. With this option, Verona Log Homes will cut your log home package using 10" round timbers for the log walls, ceiling beams, and rafter or roof purlins. This system is available for all our standard catalog models and any of our custom homes as well.
Timber Frame
In the construction of a Timber Frame home, Verona Log Homes uses timbers to build the framework, which becomes
the skeleton of the house. Next, the roof system is placed, and insulating panels are attached to the
framework. The timbers are left exposed on the inside. The customer can then decide to cover the home
in cedar lap or log siding.
RuStick Conventional Wall
The warmth and beauty of a log home meets the standard of traditional construction techniques. Our conventionaly framed and insulated wall system features Honest Abe's quality log sidings for the interior and exterior. Ease of construction and a great value to achieve the log home look you've always wanted!
