The log home we bought was going to be our retirement home but I was getting depressed and not feeling very well. We found out it was due to the very dark walls and the finish used was heavy with VOC. Years later, we still look at the pictures of how our home looked and wonder how we even lived in such a dungeon. The home is so bright and happy and a wiss to spring dust and clean. Thank You!

I wanted to sell my home for what I knew it was worth. But it was in such dire need of tender care. I was lost to what and how I should finish it off. I heard of John Plowman's work and contacted him, it was a great job we did together and in the end I received much more financial benefits to move on.

My wife & I needed to sell our log home before the end of the year and our local market had slowed somewhat. We knew that our home would sell quicker and for more money if we had it in top shape. Our exterior logs had been neglected for 18 years and had lot's of rot in them. Northwood Log Homes was recommended to us so we brought them out. John & his son worked a miracle even though our Alberta winter came early and stayed that year. They completely refinished and re chinked the exterior logs and fixed all of the decaying wood. Our house was listed for just five days and sold to the first couple who saw it. If you own a log home that needs help I would recommend Northwood Log Homes for the job.

We life in a home my husband and I built; it was getting to 20 years of age and in dire need of upgrading and heating the home became a chore. I contacted John and Jesse Plowman to look over our home and come out with a plan. Over the course of a few years we now have a beautiful, warm, comfortable and bright home with large energy savings. Their knowledge and expertise were indispensable.

My mother, Marlene Ring, was looking to get her log home refinished and we had approached John a few years ago to see if he would take on the job. He was more than happy to do the work. Upon completion of the job it was amazing to see the before and after appearance. The log house that is approximately 30 years old looks incredible now. As well I would like to comment that John had some weather issues (lots of rain and wind) but that did not stop him as he tarped the work area and proceeded ahead with 12 hour work days. Jesse also did some work on my father's cabin at Sandy Lake years ago and we were extremely pleased with his work then.
Keep up the good work John & Jesse
