Training & Services




The Barna Log Home Institute is a one-of-a-kind training facility for builders to learn first hand proper methods of log construction. The 3-day construction class gives participants experience in stacking logs and working with heavy timbers, while addressing such issues as settling, wiring and plumbing log walls and log home maintenance. The modest $250 tuition – a special price for builders only – covers the entire course, including materials, meals and lodging.

An In-house technical department with a toll-free number staffed by experienced log builders that can talk you through any situation that you might encounter – where else can you get that kind of support? If site visits are required, you’ll have them. Whatever it takes to keep your job moving and your time profitable.
