Abundant
Supply of Environmentally Friendly Raw Materials
We are proud to construct our log exteriors from “dead stand” trees.
These damaged forest areas have perished due to fire, or by other natural causes.
We are assisting in the clean up of many areas and are pleased to “recycle” some
of nature's most “prized possessions”.
High
Quality
Real wood log materials and system built construction result in a very high quality
product unlike anything available on the market. The high-level construction
standards we utilize meet or exceed most building codes in North America. Snow
load and sheer wall conditions vary from one area to another, at Whisper Creek
we have designed our homes to the highest standards resulting in a product that
can be enjoyed in virtually any area.
Structurally
Sound
By comparison, traditional log home construction has several short falls including
profound settling, poor insulation, air and insect infiltration and onerous
maintenance procedures. The use of conventional framing in our homes eliminates
these problems and provides for standard insulation, building wrap and vapor
barrier, resulting in a sealed comfortable home in any weather condition.
Wide
Selection of Floor Plans
An additional advantage of our system-built construction using conventional
framing is the flexibility to choose your interior space. Whisper Creek homes
range from 725 square feet to estate-style homes over 6300 square feet. Enjoy
the beautiful combination of interior log and drywall finishing as desired.
Lower
Financing Costs
The relative short build time for Whisper Creek homes provides the customer
with significant savings in interest costs.
Easier
to Insure
Some insurance companies will not insure full log homes under any circumstance
because "replacement value" is hard to determine and they are considered
a "higher fire risk". The insurance companies that will insure a
full log home generally will apply an automatic 25% surcharge. Whisper Creek
homes are considered more conventional in design and therefore are insurable
as such - meaning lower premiums!
Minimal
Waste
Our Whisper Creek package has no waste or "unusable" materials. Your
home package is engineered and manufactured with every component precisely
measured and cut to eliminate and left over material. The possibility of on-site
pilferage is also minimized because the components are pre-built and set-up
within a short period of time. |
