Affordability - South East Log Cabins & Homes

We Brits are a bit old fashioned when it comes to our ‘castles’. For many years it’s had to be "bricks and mortar, and nothing else will do"!

But let’s take a step back for a moment... What do you want from your home?

Security - well of course.
Long life - obviously.
Warmth - goes without saying.
Space - definitely.
Durability - without question.
Individuality - that’d be nice.
All of which are integral to a log home.

But more than anything the one thing that more first time buyers and growing families are looking for is Value and Affordability!

All over Europe and other parts of the world, timber buildings are common place. And as we become more European, so our ‘bricks and mortar’ attitudes are finally softening.

Slowly but surely our Insurance and Mortgage industries are seeing the light and understanding that they need to be more flexible, to accommodate the growing swell of customers wanting to build alternative properties or dwellings.

And here’s the crunch... when you realise what you can achieve financially, from a log home, you’ll see why more and more people are waking up to this traditional form of construction.

When we discuss log homes with our customers one of the most common questions that arises is "But what about our climate?"

Rather than go into great technical detail here about thermal ‘U’ values, and the resilience and integrity of slow grown timber, we will answer the question by asking you to ponder this ...

If countries with extreme climates such as Canada; Norway; Finland; Russia; and many more, build predominantly with timber, do you think that the UK’s relatively moderate weather system will present a problem?

If you think that South East Log Cabins & Homes can assist you in building your own log home, please call us to discuss matters further.
