I’ve been neglecting the website for quite a long time. The neglect started while I was very busy getting the new log home started and then it became straight up neglect. So in an effort to get back into the habit of updating I intend to write about the building process from the beginning of the project to the present.
I first met Monica in Feb. 2011. She had been talking to a friend (log home builder in New Hampshire) whose business was unfortunately a casualty of the times. My friend introduced us and the rapport was great from the start. After doing this as long as I have it is clear that even in tough times it isn’t going to make sense to take on a project if either the builder or owner don’t have a good feeling about the other.
It was obvious from the beginning that this was going to be a custom designed log home and the budget was going to be tight. Right from the start Monica was open to a couple of small design changes that afforded us the ability to design the project so as to be friendlier to the budget while not taking anything away from the original concept. That isn’t always possible but this home provides a good example of where that can work and in the next blog I’ll show specifically what was done.
John has been a pleasure to work with!!! We are almost at the end of the project and I cannot wait to see the house completed with all his finishing touches! While many people will tell you that building a home can be very stressful, I can assure you that John and all the workmen I have dealt with have been FANTASTIC!!! They have been honest and fair, their work is superior and I could not be happier with the choice I made in who I selected to build my “Dream Home”!!!
John, you are the best!!! Thank you for all you have done and cannot wait to see it when it is completed!
