How to Maintain a Log Home in Colorado
Published by Derek Shandonay • Mountain Man Painting
Annual Washing: Wash logs annually with gentle wood cleaners to remove dust, pollen, and atmospheric pollutants.
Gutter Maintenance: Keep gutters clear so rainwater doesn't splash continuously onto lower log courses.
Vegetation Trimming: Trim branches at least 3 feet away from logs to allow air circulation and sunlight drying.
Inspect Caulking & Chinking: Repair minor log cracks and joint gaps before winter freeze-thaw cycles.
