| About Battle Creek Log Homes
Battle Creek Log
Homes is a family owned and operated, full service, company that has
been designing, building and constructing log
homes for more than twenty years. Founded in Alabama in the early
70’s then moving, to its current location, in South Pittsburg,
Tennessee, Battle Creek strives to maintain the art of log home building
that has been a tradition in the south for generations, all the while,
utilizing the latest technologically advanced building techniques the
modern world has to offer. This combination of old world craftsmanship
and modern day advancements makes a Battle Creek Log Home one of the
finest quality homes in the industry today.
Battle Creek
starts each and every home with hand selected, kiln dried, eastern white
pine. Eastern White Pine is renowned for its high “R-value,” superior
stability, limited shrinkage, and its’ beautiful grain. It is also
lightweight and easily stained in wide variety of colors. For this
reason Eastern White Pine in the choice wood for all Battle Creek Log
Homes.
The Kiln drying
process makes Eastern White Pine even more stable. Kiln drying helps
remove water and sap from the logs, and minimizes any twisting,
shrinking, warping, checking, or cracking the can occur with non-kiln
dried logs. Kiln drying has a host of benefits and is the standard at
Battle Creek Log Homes.
After each log has
been hand selected and kiln dried, Battle Creek then precision mills
each log into a variety of log profiles each of which features a double
tongue and groove joining system. The double tongue and groove system
has been proven to add strength and rigidity while helping prevent air
infiltration. Each tongue and groove is fortified with a weatherproof
gasket to further ensure an airtight seal. The logs are then anchored
together with lag screws. This combination of tongue and groove,
weatherproof gaskets, and lag screws ensure an airtight seal in each
Battle Creek Log Home.
Finally, after
being milled and individually inspected, cut, and numbered for each and
every individual plan, the logs are then packed in weatherproof
coverings and shipped any where in the United States or Canada. Battle
Creek also has it's own construction crews available to "Dry-In," their
homes anywhere in the United States or Canada. So, whether homeowners
take advantage of Battle Creek's in-house construction services, or
choose to build it themselves, Battle Creek's commitment to value,
quality and service will delight even the most discerning of customers.
