In recent years, there has been an increased emphasis on sustainable practices in the construction industry. With many people looking to reduce their environmental footprint and make more eco-friendly decisions, the demand for sustainable log home building has grown. Sustainable log home building takes into account the impact of construction on the environment and works to minimize it where possible. This can be achieved through the use of eco-friendly materials, as well as implementing sustainable practices during the building process.

Constructing with Renewable Wood
At Frontier Log Homes, we understand the importance of constructing eco-friendly log homes. That is why we prioritize making every piece count in constructing with renewable wood. In the past, log homes often relied on cutting down trees in order to build, but we now focus on sustainable practices. For example, we look for wood sources such as beetle-killed trees, deadfall, and we also incorporate wood obtained through forest thinning and wood salvaged from old buildings.
Replanting Trees to Promote a Healthy Ecosystem
At Frontier Log Homes, we believe that sustainable log home building begins with a healthy ecosystem. Planting and replanting trees is essential for preserving the environment and the wildlife that thrives within it. We use native species of trees to ensure that the trees planted are compatible with the local environment. Through replanting, we create a healthier and more vibrant ecosystem for the plants and animals that inhabit the area.
