Wooden Houses Construction
People looking to build a wooden house have a vision how their house will look like, what size and what design. When they contact me saying: "I wan a wooden house. Can you build it?". Then my mission is to find out what exactly they mean by a phrase "a wooden house" because there are a lot of options to build. Main question - is it log or panel house?
Let's compare and answer some questions
- House interior: do I want to see wood or I prefer light, white clean interior?

LOG HOUSES INTERIOR: MOSTLY YOU WILL BE SURROUNDED BY WOOD |
|
PANEL HOUSE INTERIOR - CLEAN, WHITE, LIGHT.... |
So two pictures above may very easy answer question: log or panel house you would like. Of course if you want to live only in a wooden log house, and some log walls combine with with stone, ceramic tiles, plasterboard we can find a solution for that.
- Construction technique: panel and log houses have different construction technique. We will not go into the details in this article but I will shortly show you by photos.
Panel houses - walls construction is built from wooden frame and filled with insulation material between. From interior walls are finished with plasterboard, and from outside/exterior -wood.

Log houses - walls construction is built from massive wood beams. Later if client wants higher insulation values we may add insulation material.

LOG WALL - MASSIVE, SOLID WOOD |
- Building period: panel houses come prefabricated from the factory, with ready built walls for this reason panel houses construction period is faster than log house. Log houses come to building site as "lego" set and we built walls on the foundation.
