Do you ever dream of living in a

Log Home?

Picture this . . .pulling up to your VERY OWN log home, when you walk in the door, the beauty of the wood and ambiance of the logs is so warm and welcoming. The structure is unsurpassable in quality - you KNOW you are HOME!

Genesis Log Homes & Construction, Inc., sells and constructs Log Homes from Tidewater Red Cypress as well as for folks wanting pine and cedar logs. We also offer log siding from Tidewater Red Cypress, Pine and Cedar.

The Tidewater Red Cypress milled-log home is by far the best value in a full-milled log. We offer floor-planning, design, competitive pricing and construction. The Tidewater Red Cypress milled-log home is practically maintenance free because of the phenomenal characteristics of this particular wood.

Most people that can afford a moderate conventionally framed home can afford a Log Sided Home with the LOOK of a full log from Tidewater Red Cypress, Pine or Cedar siding. Both the Tidewater Red Cypress Full-Milled log homes and Log-Sided log homes offer these phenomenal log home building characteristics:

- Tidewater Red Cypress full logs do not settle any more than a 2x4 stud and any log-sided home does not settle

 - They do NOT require cabinets mounted on sliders

 - No space needed (usually 3"-6") above doors, windows, or sheet rock for settling/shrinkage

 - No jacks are needed under the log home for settling

What do prospective log cabin owners want?

- ENERGY efficiency from Tidewater Red Cypress full milled logs - because the wood is so dense, the thermal mass is much greater i.e. the growth rings are so close together you practically need a magnifying glass to count them

- Large exterior log posts and beam, such as center posts and ridge beams

 - Log railings for loft and handcrafted staircase

 - High vaulted ceilings in the great room and loft

 - Flexibility of various interior smooth wall finishes, to facilitate interior decoration and design

 - Structural design facilitating easy installation of electrical, plumbing, insulation, and heating and cooling components

What do prospective log cabin owners want to avoid?

- Settling. Avoid lowering the roof back onto their cabin each spring with jacks under the support posts as the walls settle

 - Worry about windows and doors having enough space over them to accommodate the settling walls

 - Building special framed walls to hang cabinets, to avoid them being crushed or misaligned from settling
