"Brad was terrific. He knows what he is doing, and he is honest and fair," the owner says. "We found him to be excellent, both personally and professionally. All of Brad's subcontractors also gave us a professional job, and Tony Harrison, the lead carpenter, did beautiful work."

With the exception of the dormers - which were conventionally framed, covered with drywall and finished with exterior cedar siding - the entire home is log construction. Brad frequently cautions people about the use of logs on interior walls if the rooms are small because they can create an overwhelming sense of mass and darkness. However, because the rooms in this home are exceptionally large, Log Knowledge was able to use logs for interior walls to create the amount of living space the owners requested.
