Northern Wisconsin log homes take a beating from heavy snow, moisture, freeze/thaw cycles, and strong seasonal weather changes. Over time, these conditions can cause stain failure, chinking separation, cracking, and log rot — especially on log ends and bottom courses.
Midwest Maintenance LLC provides log home restoration in Northern Wisconsin, including cleaning, repairs, chinking/caulking, rot repair, and re-staining. If your logs are fading, turning dark, or feeling soft in certain areas, restoration can prevent bigger damage and help protect your home long-term.
