Staining
Staining your treasured investment routinely is important. It will benefit your home by strengthening the outer layer of the log to stay sealed as well as many other advantages.

Advantages of Staining
Stain options include water or oil based finishes and can come in multiple pigments to offer your log home a variety of looks such as transparent, semi transparent, semi solid and solid stain.

When choosing between oil and water based, stains contain different factors. These include different levels of protection as well as coverage for logs with previous treatment and weather exposure. Water based will dry quickly, have long lasting colour, provides a richer hue of colour, no harmful odor, breathable, extremely mold/ mildew resistant.
Oil based stain penetrates wood more deeply, its extremely durable, thicker seal for wood, has less long term maintenance but takes a bit more time to dry after applying compared to the water based.
After properly preparing your logs, staining allows your home to be sealed and protected from weather to feel at ease knowing that you’ve done everything to keep your home healthy and safe
