Scandinavian Scribe Fit

Handcrafted, scribed log work; probably what most people envision when log homes are mentioned. A far cry from the humble log cabin of yester-year, scribed log homes fill the pages of glossy magazines and express the epitome of the “American Dream”.

We build our scribed log work using Douglas fir or Western red cedar – average mid-span diameter: 13 “ +.

All of our log work is “over-scribed”, saddle notched, with laterals and notches gasketed with “P-Gasket”. When a log shell from Nicola LogWorks arrives at a customer’s site, they can expect all electrical chases drilled and ready to fish wire through on re-set, roof pitches cut as per plan, and logs prepared to accept framing.


Scribed log shells are pre-built at our production site in the Nicola Valley. We go to great lengths in preparing our log work to ensure that the finishing crew will be able to pick up the tools of their trade after the building is re-set on the customers foundation and sub-floor.

We recommend that our customers and their contractor become acquainted with The Log Building Standards, published by the International Log Builder’s Association (ILBA)
