Log Siding
Tindell’s stocks many types of wood sidings and can also run just about any profile in our mills for your home.
False Corners
This is an example of round false corners used on a gate house. It looks just like real logs but is easier to build and less expensive.
This 6×8 D-log false corners with 6×8 white-pine siding, built on a conventional frame building, looks just like real logs with significant savings.
Log Railings
The rear of this home shows how Tindell’s standard white cedar railing beautifies the home while keeping it safe. We can ship this railing along with installation instructions anywhere in the country.
This home features Field log construction, dovetail corners, and our standard white cedar railing with 8″ white pine newel posts.
