Log Cabin Staining

Log Cabin Staining
Proper log cabin staining is one of the most important steps in preserving the beauty and strength of your log home. A high-quality log home stain not only enhances the natural wood grain, but also forms a protective shield against UV damage, moisture infiltration, and harsh weather conditions. Without the right log cabin stain, or proper application, your logs can become vulnerable to fading, cracking, and rot, ultimately shortening the lifespan of your home’s exterior.

Our Staining Process
The key to a long-lasting finish starts with thorough preparation. Before any stain touches your home, we assess the condition of your logs to determine the best approach for surface prep. This may include removing dirt, mildew, and any deteriorating coatings using professional-grade washing and cleaning solutions. For homes with stubborn or failing finishes, we may also perform media blasting or sanding to strip away old coatings and smooth out rough spots. Proper preparation allows the stain to adhere effectively and penetrate deep into the wood, giving your home maximum protection and a rich, even color.
The log home staining process itself requires both skill and patience. Applying stain too quickly, skipping preparation, or using lower-quality products can result in an uneven finish that peels or fades prematurely. That’s why we only use premium stains designed specifically for log cabin staining, offering superior UV resistance and long-term performance. Our expert team carefully applies the stain in controlled layers, allowing each coat to properly absorb into the wood for lasting beauty and durability.
