The garage is coming along nicely!

Nine weeks have come and gone since Halford Home Builders started building this warm and cozy log home for a retired engineer. The FREE garage package that the customer received for purchasing a Southland Log Home, is nearing completion as the roof system is being framed and the decking has been installed, 30 lbs felt paper with shingles will be installed later this week. This customer and many other Southland Log Home customers will greatly benefit from the $15,000.00 plus instant equity the 24 x 24 Free garage generates. The plumbing, electrical, and HVAC rough ins are complete and the the finish walls will be installed shortly. This Christmas, the happy owner will celebrate the season and bring in the new year in the Log home he has always dreamed of. Please stop by our Greenville model in Piedmont, SC if we can be of assistance. We will make your log home dream a reality!

Week Six ~ The windows and doors are in as well as the interior walls!



It is now week six of the construction on the Lafayette in Piedmont, SC. The log siding has been installed on the gable ends. The windows and doors are in. The interior walls are up and the rough electrical is completed and the rough plumbing has begun. (Some pictures below will show work done to the inside of the house.) The log siding has been put on the sill plates. This customer is delighted that his house is now in dry, lockable condition in just over five weeks. The log courses have been caulked with the Southland Tan caulk provided by Southland. The Woodguard exterior stain provided by Southland will be applied to the entire home by the end of the week. The home will look finished from the outside with the exception of the handrails and pickets for the porches and decks. Below you will see pictures that were taken over the period of a week and you will notice the progress that has been made. Earlier pictures show the windows going in, next are some inside shots of the interior walls, a few pictures further down will show the doors that have now been installed, you will also see the log siding on the gable ends.

All materials with the exception of the electrical and plumbing, have been provided by Southland Log Homes. The homeowner is busy making his choice of finish materials and specifications with his Southland Log Homes preferred builder, Bova Halford from Halford Home Builders.
