Acting as your own General Contractor

In 16 years, I have only seen one client (out of several hundred) hire a general contractor for their Log Home Construction. When you act as your own General Contractor it doesn't mean that you are at the job site everyday with a tool belt on. It simply means that you are organizing the subcontractors. The savings by acting as your own General Contractor are substantial. I recently was talking with a colleauge about her addition and garage construction. She asked for my help in looking over the estimates from the General Contractor. I was astounded when I saw a fee of contracting fee of 20%. The estimates totalled out at $277,000. The 20% contracting fee was assessed to that number. An additional $54,000.00! If you are considering a Log Home and want to act as your own General Contractor, we at North American Wholesale Cedar Log Homes can assist you in doing so. We offer on-site technical assistance. Local Subcontractors who are insured and registered. Breakdowns of timelines, schedules, and costs. We guide you every step of the way! Save that $54,000 and chose NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES! Call today at 1-866-933-5647. Visit us at www.nawclh.com or follow us on Facebook!

United States Department of Agriculture

The USDA has a Forest Service, Forest Products Laboratory located in Madison, Wis. This entity serves the public as the nation's leading wood research institute. Some areas of concentration is the comparative decay resistance of heartwood of our native species. As printed by the USDA Forestry division, the top 3 species of wood that fall into the category of Resistant to Very Resistant are:

1. Bald Cypress (Old Growth)
2. Catalpa
3. Cedars
Another interesting fact is that the southern and eastern pines and bald cypress are now largely second-growth with a large proportion of sapwood. Consequently, it is no longer practicable to obtain substantial quantities of heartwood lumber in these species for general building purposes.
Source: USDA Forest Service/wood hand book.
If you are considering a Log Home, make sure you start with a wood that is known for its decay and rot resistant qualities! Contact NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES for information on building and buying your Dream CEDAR Log Home! 1-866-933-5647

Cedar Vs. Pine

An interesting fact: It is national building code that you are not allowed to build a deck on the outside of your home out of Pine that is not pressure treated. Why would you build an entire home out of a wood that isn't even allowed for a deck. You certainly wouldn't build a home out of pressure treated wood! You are, however, allowed by national code to build a deck on the outside of your home out of CEDAR that is not pressure treated.
Don't compromise quality for cost. NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES offers Quality Northern White Cedar Log Home packages at affordable prices. 1-866-933-5647

Buying from a Local Supplier rather than a National Dealer

When you consider a Log Home, one of your most important considerations is WHO you will choose as your Log Home Manufacturer. There are so many National Dealers and the problem with choosing one of them is typically it is a "drop and run" situation. When you work with a Local Manufacturer, you will receive uncompromised on-site service. NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES is a Local Western Pennyslvania supplier of Quality Cedar Log Home Packages. We work with our clients from start to finish! We have local contractors who are fully insured and registered with Pennsylvania. We also work with local suppliers for all of the materials that are not in the Log Home "Kit".

Building "Green" has never been more simple. Choosing a home constructed out of Northern White Cedar is your first step.

Affordability?

I was recently asked by a potential customer if it was less expensive to buy Pine Logs from a local sawmill than it would be to purchase a Log Home Package from NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES. He said the sawmill could provide him with the lineal footage of Logs that he needed to construct his home for about $15,000.00. When I broke it down and separated just the Logs out of my package, I too could provide them in CEDAR for about $15,000.00. What the man didn't understand is that a Log Home Package consists of far more than just the Logs needed for the exterior walls. If he chose to purchase from a local sawmill, his home would end up being far more expensive than buying a complete Log Home Package from NAWCLH. There are components in the Log Home Package that just aren't available to the retail consumer. There are blueprints that need to be drawn. With over 15 years of experience, there is invaluable knowledge. If you are considering a Log Home, don't try to do it on your own. At NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES, we guarantee Customer Service and Customer Satisfaction. Call toll free at 1-866-933-5647 or visit us at http://www.nawclh.com/

What determines the "KIT" Cost?

Every Log Home Company puts together what is referred to as the Kit. This is the compilation of materials being offered by the Log Home Manufacturer. Comparing apples to apples is very difficult for the average consumer. While some companies offer windows and doors in their kit, others don't. The Kit or Log Home Package is only one factor in the total cost of a home. Don't be fooled by the company who says they are providing you more in their kit. The only way to price a house accurately is to start from the bottom up. The only important factor in the Kit is if the wood that you are being provided is CEDAR! NORTH AMERICAN WHOLESALE CEDAR LOG HOMES will show you not only what is included in the kit, but what is not in the kit. We also provide an extensive cost analysis so you can determine reasonably how much your total project will cost.
