That’s why we created Tennessee Log Construction. It is our purpose to provide professional-level, construction-related advice and services to customers and contractors building a Custom Home. Each of our principals and consultants have decades of experience. From budgeting and builder selection to inspection services to complete turn-key construction, Tennessee Log Construction offers a complete range of services.
TLC representatives will supply estimated turn key pricing in your area for the complete construction of your Tennessee Log Home. These estimates will be helpful in providing you a "ball park" idea of what your Custom Home will cost to build. It will also be helpful in your preliminary banking and mortgage needs. We can coordinate the training of your local selected contractor concerning the installation of your TLH package or assist you in locating contractors in your area for that construction. TLC representatives will also be available throughout your construction for any needed consultation or advice concerning your building project.
TLC will provide personalized construction training for you and your builder at our Learning Center in Athens, Tennessee. You may schedule time to meet with our Master Carpenter for specific one-on-one training and discussions in the areas of most concern to your builder. This service is free to customers of Tennessee Log and Timber Homes who have paid 10% or more toward their purchase. To schedule your personal training day, please contact Customer Service at 1-800-251-9218 or by emailing pcornell@tnloghomes.com
Our representative will travel to your site and will work with your builder to assure that the logs or timber frame go up correctly. By the end of one day, your builder should understand how to set the rest of the logs. Their questions concerning subsequent phases of construction should be answered as well.
Our Construction Inspector will review every aspect of the dry-in construction of your home with you and your builder. This detailed inspection will give critical attention to log walls, timber framing, interior framing, window and door installation, and roof construction, focusing on areas where problems can show up later. Visits are scheduled several times during the dry-in phase of construction. Written reports are prepared after each visit.
Same services as the dry-in labor consulting service combined with the scheduling and management of the actual work to be performed. TLC will provide a qualified crew and handle all overhead, management and insurance requirements. A one year structural warranty is standard for all work completed along with the standard Tennessee Log and Timber Homes limited lifetime warranty as per your purchase agreement.
TLC can provide a complete turn-key construction management service in certain areas. This is by far the most popular method chosen by our customers to get their log or timber package 100% constructed. TLC will provide the supervisory labor, overhead and sub-contractor management necessary for all phases of your construction. All payments to suppliers and sub-contractors are made direct from the customer for substantial savings of overhead.
This service is also only available in certain areas and combines the construction management service along with the actual hiring and payments to all suppliers and sub-contractors. The one year warranty for complete construction is standard along with the Tennessee Log and Timber Homes limited lifetime warranty as per your purchase agreement.
Although your Tennessee Log and Timber Home is designed to last for generations, proper care and maintenance is essential. Our representative can advise and recommend the right products and services for maximum performance and protection of your home. TLC can provide the materials and/or labor for any of the maintenance services.
For any needed repairs not covered by the Tennessee Log and Timber Home limited lifetime warranty, or for log homes manufactured by other companies, let TLC take a look at your problem areas and provide recommendations and/or construction services for the needed work. Only qualified professional crews will be used for these services, and TLC will provide all needed management and overhead related to the work performed.
