About Us

Our Story

Our Core Values

Since 1980 Appalachian Log and Timber homes has been ensuring our clients with the highest quality craftsmanship.

Tradition Meets Innovation

Blending centuries-old techniques with modern designs to create timeless homes.

Hands-On Craftsmanship

We personally erect what we sell, ensuring quality and precision from foundation to finish.

Built on Trust

Forging lasting relationships through honesty and integrity in every project.

Sustainable Practices

Expertise in wood species and care, preserving your home for generations.

What Sets Us Apart

We erect what we sell—a claim not many log home companies can make. Once your contractor has prepared the site work, foundation, and subfloor, our experienced crew steps in. We construct the heavy timber members of your home and finish out the construction of your log package, setting a standard for expertise and knowledge of log and timber structures.

Master Builders of Appalachian Style

Our legacy stems from a deep-rooted respect for Appalachian craftsmanship, honed since 1980. Unlike many log home companies, we don't just design; we build. Our expert team personally oversees the construction of each home, ensuring every structure reflects both the traditional and contemporary styles that make each building unique and timeless.

Specialists in Wood and Home Care

We stand apart through our extensive knowledge of various wood species and their maintenance. This expertise allows us not only to construct new homes but also to preserve and rejuvenate historic structures. Our team's deep understanding ensures that each home we work on is built to last and maintain its beauty through generations.

A Relationship Beyond the Build

Our approach is personal. We build relationships founded on integrity and honesty, treating each client's project as our own. From initial design to post-construction care, we are committed to transparency and open communication, ensuring our clients feel confident and informed at every stage.
