Patriot builds its first Coventry log home In MO

 ~Patriot builds its first Coventry log Home~

Patriot Log Home Builders based out of Wisconsin  travels to New Albany MO to build its first CONVENTRY LOG HOME ! We look forward to working this quality log home company. Today the homeowner shall put down the first log. A senior member of Patriot arrived Aug 30th to unload the semi truck, while Mike and Jeremy arrived Sept 1 st.

The camper was loaded with tools and taken to the job site where the men will stay. Every few days they will rent a hotel to take a shower  as there is not water on site. The homeowner has been kind enough to allow the men to stay right on the job site where they can plug in . One of the great advantages of this is that the men waste no travel time and can leave their tools right on site. Very efficient .

PATRIOTS TRADITION  

Homeowner Dave Hoover is setting his first LOG  on his home!!!

Ward Cedar Log Home Three car garage

Mike Hompertz of Patriot Log Home builders received a call from a Ward Cedar log home Dealer Don  to bid on this project which he completed a few weeks ago. The family , who works on a farm already had a log home. They loved it so much that they wished to add a 3 car garage to their property and add above it a living  area  above. They choose beam rafters and tongue and groove for the ceiling (see the second picture) which looks magnificent .

Three car garage aprox 1500 sq ft

beautiful log home finish in Wisc.

 I  buit this home two winters ago  begining  in Oct.  it was a zHochstelter McKay in Wisconsin near my home town of mauston.  I was recently invited to see his home after it was in move in shape.  It was great to be able to come back after they had it furnished and livable ,with a warm fire and food in the oven. In addtion, at the same time I met a potential homeowner whom wishes to build the same home, we met at Steves and I thought it would be nice to get another viedeo of the home now that its done. It is nice to compare the rough to the finish.

 Take a look at these custom kitchen cabinets.. The decor really set this log home off with Steve's trophy deers and stuffed bear this place looked like it came right out of a log home magazine. In fact steve hopes to submit this home.
