I built a log home in 1995. It is about 2300 sq ft total living space. Still live in it and love it. The main maintenance is oiling the logs. Easy to do, but a pain. The main thing in ordering the logs, or kit, is to MAKE SURE you use dry logs. The company I used out of Colorado makes sure the logs are less than 8% moisture. I think they use standing dead timber that was killed by bugs, or fire or some reason. We do not have any of the screws in our windows or anything like that. We have not had any problems in 13 years. I would suggest using cedar logs in lieu of pine if you can swing it. The cedar logs are considerably tougher and more bug resistant than cedar, but more costly. I did most of the work on mine myself, but then I figured approx $50 per square foot (not including land) vs $80+ per square foot for a stick house. As others have said, you can email me and I can sure give you more information. Bob
