Foundations
One of the most commonly asked questions about log homes is "What sort of foundations do they need?"
The answer is that a variety of different types of foundation can be used with a log cabin or house. Which one you choose depends on the building, your local ground conditions, and your any restrictions imposed by planning or building control. For a garden cabin, simple plinth foundations will usually be all you need. For a log house, you will need to use foundations acceptable to your local building inspector and you may need to engage a surveyor in determining the most suitable type.
