Log work at Heritage North Museum to be complete this week

The bottom logs at the Heritage North Museum are almost replaced.

 

Carpenter Len Friesen gives us some insight into what went into the project:  

 

"We did a lot more than just the log work, we’re also restraining the bottom 3 logs. We ground them right down and put wood preservative on. The building is too low to the ground that’s the real problem there, there’s too much moisture splashing  back onto the building so we’re putting this framing on it and re-flashing it so the log work has been maybe half the work".

 

Friesen expects the work to be complete this week, for a total of 4 weeks that it took to replace the logs. He says the project cost about $30,000.
