Safeguard Your Log Home:
Top Annual Maintenance Tasks to Prioritize

 

Ward after 2024

Owning a log home comes with a unique set of responsibilities, particularly when it comes to maintenance. To keep your log home in top condition, regular annual upkeep is essential. From inspecting the exterior for signs of wear to ensuring your home is well-sealed against the elements, these tasks not only preserve the beauty of your log home but also protect your investment. In this article, we'll explore the key annual maintenance tips every log homeowner should follow to ensure their home remains a rustic haven for years to come.

We are excited to share a very unique project, something that could very be a first for this company - a log home interior of a van, sealed with Perma-Chink. Yes, a van as in the automobile variety. 

This project is a fantastic example on the flexibility of our products, and the creative imagination of our customers. We'll turn over the background of the project to the customer, Barbara P., in their own words.

"In 2002 and 2003, we discussed the possibility of buying a log cabin that my Dad lived in with his Grandfather back in the 1920's and early 1930’s. We found out that the price was out of our reach. Shawn, my husband, then thought about customizing a new van to look like a log cabin. I have been a member of Moon Lite Vans, Inc. for 46 years and vanning for over 47 years and never saw a van with this kind of interior.

We're excited to announce the return of Mandy Arizala to Perma-Chink Systems as our new Controller. Mandy, a proud graduate of the University of Washington, originally joined Perma-Chink Systems in 2003 as our Accountant. Her unwavering dedication and financial expertise left a lasting impact during her time with us. After departing Perma-Chink Systems to further her desire to gain additional experience and hone her skills, Mandy returns with a wealth of knowledge and fresh insights, ready to continue her impactful journey.

Outside of her professional endeavors, Mandy finds true joy in her strong family values. Every moment shared with her husband, Oswaldo, and their six grown children is a cherished memory filled with love and laughter. Whether gathered around the dinner table, embarking on new adventures, or dancing to the vibrant rhythm of salsa, family remains the cornerstone of her life.

We're thrilled to have Mandy back on board, and we're confident that her dedication, expertise, and love for family will once again enrich the Perma-Chink Systems community. Welcome back, Mandy!
