Nothing is more frustrating than discovering that your wooden space is being invaded by pests without your knowledge. Termites are hard to identify and even more difficult to eradicate. 

To protect your log home from pests, make regular inspections and use pesticides when needed. Make sure you check every corner and nook of your house carefully to check if any pest is there or not. 

Choose Best Stains and Paint 

With time, wooden summer houses need staining to increase their lifespan. The harsh weather conditions, sun rays, and dust can damage the outer look of wood homes and this is why you need to stain them after a particular interval of time. 

Wooden stains come in three forms: oil-based, water-based, and emulsions. Choose the stain that you feel fits good on your exterior. Also, choose the stain colour carefully to give a nice finish to the exterior of the log home. The same is the case with paint, select the quality paint for log cabins.

One of the main advantages of hardwood flooring is how easy it is to clean. Our step-by-step guide will show you how to preserve wood flooring properly.

Here are some tips for maintaining wooden floor:

  • Beautiful rugs and carpets can also be used to avoid wooden exposure.
  • Any stains should be removed as soon as possible using a gentle, slightly wet cloth.
