Research and Development: As you sort through all of the different methods of log home construction, it will soon become apparent that there are seemingly hundreds of different ways to build a log home. Every company claims that their way is the best way. What makes Jim Barna Log Systems different? From his first log home, Jim Barna has continually sought ways to build the best log home. Today he runs a research and development division where he continues to test and develop the best ways to construct a log home. Some of the areas of concern are settling, corners, joining, and drying. Jim Barna Log Systems is using what they have discovered to be the BEST method of designing, manufacturing, and constructing a log home.
Experience: Since the 1970's, Jim Barna Log Systems (JBLS) has been constructing beautiful, well-built log homes. JBLS currently boasts nearly 9,000 log homes to their credit. There are over 300 of these homes in the Michigan area.
Plan Design and Customization: Building a log home is no longer an unconventional route to finding a place to live; although it is unique! We offer a wide range of log home designs and floorplans. We offer many standard plans ranging from small vacation cabins to large homes. Many people fall in love with one of our standard models. But what about the customer who has a custom log home design in mind? Our design department can make just about any dream plan a reality.
Lay-Away: Since lumber prices are constantly increasing, Jim Barna Log Systems offers a layaway plan to help you SAVE MONEY by avoiding the rising costs of lumber. This will allow you to lock in the price of the materials for up to two years while you look for property or make arrangements for your building project.
Construction Crews: Proper construction of your log home is extremely important. Barna Log Homes, Inc. is not only determined to ensure that your log home is properly constructed, but we are also here in the Great Lakes area to assist you in a variety of ways long after you are living in your log home. We offer on-the-job technical support as well as assistance with a local construction crew. In addition to our local crew, we have access to crews that can build anywhere in the world.
The Jim Barna Log Home Institute: Building a log home is in many ways different from standard home construction. Customers, builders, and distributors alike need to understand the process of proper log home construction. Jim Barna Log Systems provides a 2 & 1/2 day construction course to help you, the customer, become better acquainted with how your log home will be built. This will also let you know what to expect before, during, and after the construction process. The class is FREE with the purchase of most log home packages.
Options: In addition to the wide range of design options that are available to you, we have a number of different log sizes and profiles from which to choose. Click HERE to visit
