Our Process
At Kea Log Homes, every log home we create is a one-of-a-kind work of craftsmanship, rooted in tradition and built with care. From selecting each log by hand to the final scribe and fit, our process reflects decades of experience and a deep respect for the materials we work with. We believe your home should tell a story—starting with the forest it came from.

1.
We begin by selecting and harvesting premium white pine logs. Once delivered to our building site, each log is carefully hand-peeled by our crew using a traditional spud. This hands-on process preserves the natural shape and integrity of the wood—laying the groundwork for a strong, beautiful structure.
2.
Each log is chosen and custom-fitted into place. Using the Scandinavian scribe method, we mark and carve a precise groove into each log so it perfectly overlaps the one below. Chainsaw artistry and adzing ensure a tight, seamless fit. We continue stacking and scribing each log until your custom shell reaches its full height. Electrical holes are also pre-cut for a clean finish.
3.
Once complete, the logs are numbered, disassembled, and loaded onto a truck for delivery. When they arrive at your site, we reassemble the shell—piece by piece—exactly as it was built. No matter which package you choose, your handcrafted log shell will be ready for the roof and final finishes. We’re here to support you every step of the way.
