Log Home Restoration in Youngsville, NC, Wake County

The team from Total Log Cabin Restoration has arrived in Youngsville, NC located in Wake County, to undertake the meticulous process of repairing, stripping, and re-coating Kristi L's log home.

David, serving as the crew leader, wastes no time in initiating the preparation phase. As is customary for their restoration projects, the crew diligently clears the decks and removes all furniture. Additionally, they take down the gutter downspouts to shield them from staining and facilitate easy access to the home's corners. All exterior lighting fixtures are carefully covered and taped to safeguard them against damage and potential electrical issues.

On the first day, the crew coats the logs with a stripping agent. The stripper is allowed to work its magic. Twenty minutes later, the stripping agent is washed off with the pressure washer. A member will then apply neutralizer to de-activate the stripper agent.

The following day, after allowing sufficient time for drying, the team meticulously sands down the logs to achieve a smooth surface, ensuring a uniform appearance and preparing the surface for the forthcoming stain application. To safeguard against wood-eating insects, a Borate treatment is meticulously applied to the logs and trim.

On the third day, with the log home adequately dried, the crew conducts a comprehensive inspection of all the chinking, and will use Weatherall Triple Stretch Textured Log Home Chinking.

Finally, the cabin is primed for the application of the new stain. Weatherall Cedartone will adorn the exterior of this cabin. The first coat is applied on day three, with the second coat following suit on day four.
