What sets River to River Log Homes apart from other log home
representatives?

Most log home representatives top priority is to get a deposit and sell you
a log home. We want to gain a satisfied customer, a friend, and a
reputation for building quality log homes at competitive prices.

Why should I choose River to River Log Homes instead of a
national company?

Local knowledge of the building trades and subcontractors in your area,
personalized service, and an interest in building an airtight,
energy-efficient home are a few of the many reasons to choose us. We
live near our customers. We're not out of state.

Are your logs dry? Are they kiln-dried?

Our logs are dried to 19% moisture or less. We have comparable
shrinkage to a conventional home. Other companies leave up to 10,000
lbs of water in their logs in an average home. We have no screw-jacks to
adjust or springs to account for the shrinkage. We have a quality home
you can enjoy for generations to come.

How many log homes has River to River Log Homes help build?

We have built many homes from Central to Southern Illinois and in
Southeastern Missouri. Check out some of our latest homes
here.

Can designs be modified or can I build a custom home?

Absolutely! Any of our Popular Designs can be modified to your needs
or we can start from scratch. We have built homes from customers
drawing their future home on a piece of paper. Our design department
will do the rest to create complete construction drawings for your new
home.

What about financing?

What packages are available from River to River Log Homes?

Our typical package includes a Log Wall, Second Floor System, and
Timber Roof Package. Other companies may try to sell you everything
to build you home including appliances and the kitchen sink. Guess what?
Most put a steep mark-up on those items adding tens of thousands or
more to your log home. We have local sources for these items to save
you money and allow you to customize your home to your exact
specifications.
