There are multiple different materials used to build a cabin and each one has its pros and cons. Whether you are buying or building, understanding the different types of cabins available to you, prior to your hunt, will help narrow your search and ensure your cabin, home or vacation property looks, feels and performs to suit your needs. In this video we will discuss:
1. Stick Built- Traditional and versatile
2. Log- Square or rectangle, round or half, log siding vs full log
3. Timber- Timber framed, timber built or hybrid
4. Modular- Built in a factory and delivered onsite - good for areas with difficult building weather conditions.
