Log Home Kit Prices vs. What You'll Actually Spend


Log home kits can be a great way to get the log home of your dreams without paying the extra that a custom-built home would cost. However, some people only look at the cost of the land, the cost of the labor, and the cost of the kit, not realizing that there are other costs not covered in the kit price. The materials in the kit typically only are enough to build the shell of your log home or log cabin. You need to think about everything that will go inside from drywall to those snazzy granite countertops you've been thinking about for the kitchen.

Below, you can find many of the materials not covered in kits. Click on the links to go to short articles that give cost estimates, depending on the variety or quality of a material/product that you choose. Please keep in mind these are only estimates, and costs will vary from region to region.
