Trappeur Homes are not as costly as they appear

 
After showing off all the benefits of the Bondu dovetail log wall system, the next question is how much all this will cost. In short, if you compare apples to apples, our wall system (bear in mind that walls are only a small percentage of the whole construction) will cost about 15% more then a stick framed wall.

Dovetail log home kitA typical TrappeurHomes.com Model Home can be put together fairly fast. The log walls will be erected within 1-2 days which will give you right away a finished outside product. All what is left is to apply the stain.
This is a huge time saver and at the same time, this is why our prices are so competitive in comparison to conventional stick framed buildings where you require a other sub-trade for stucco or siding.

The main benefits are:

  • Unique design and eye-catching look
  • Very fast and cost effective assembly

  • R-26 with 2″x4″ interior wall and R-34 with 2″x6″ interior wall.
  • Super high energy efficient with a high “Temperature Phase shift” of 15.2 hours.
    Which means, it is the time in how long it would take on a hot day when the sun beats on the outside wall to travel through the wall and to start heating up the interior surface (in winter the opposite)
    An average house has a Temperature Phase shift from 5.5 – 7.5 hours (mostly depending on siding)
  • No settling maintenance as the log wall virtually does not shrink
  • Healthy living with “Breathable” or “Open Wall” TrappeurHomes.com concept and natural materials
  • No maintenance on exterior finishes if you use Lifetime Preservative (Valhalla Wood Stain – click here for more details)
  • Run electrical and mechanical in the 2″x4″ or 2″x6″ liner wall used for insulation
