    Keycraft Log Homes

The Log Home is not a new concept, being available and produced for many years throughout Eastern Europe, however it is rapidly becoming very popular within the UK market. These homes are eco friendly, easy to install and pleasing to the eye as well as being a less costly way of building a new home to your own design.

Keycraft pride themselves on the quality of their buildings, made from quality pine laminated logs in a choice of thicknesses we are able to design a building to suit your pocket and requirements from a small home office to a community centre and beyond. Keycraft can offer these buildings as a self build project or can project manage the entire build from sourcing the land to fitting your kitchen and bathroom.

We have standard styles which can be seen on the site, but all are customisable to suit your particular needs. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us from the number below.

Keycraft Log Homes source and supply log homes in Nottingham, the Midlands and across the UK.
Larger log buildings are sources from Europe and smaller structures are supplied by Ludguard.
Keycraft Log Homes have a range of standard buildings as well offices and garden buildings and cabins. All designs can be adapted to personal taste and bespoke log homes can be produced to your specifications. As building control in the UK differs from many other parts of the world the main body of the building is sourced from abroad and other materials such as doors, windows, roofing, insulation etc is sourced from the UK ensuring that our buildings comply.

Don’t confuse our homes with ordinary “ log cabin” type structures. The house walls are constructed entirely from solid beams manufactured by laminating together strips of pine under intense (16 BAR) pressure to produce the ultimate in strength, durability and longevity. Standard log buildings use solid logs where the moisture is held in the centre of the beam and very gradually dries out. The pressure that results causes the beam to crack and warp, with obvious detrimental effects to the integrity of the building. While this may be sufficient for temporary buildings, it is certainly not acceptable for a permanent structure built to withstand the test of time. Remember this method of construction has been developed to endure the extremes of weather seen in Northern Europe.

Windows and doors are sourced from local manufacturers whether it be timber or PVCu that you prefer. All windows and doors are housing grade and offer a thermal grade c value.

The final look is a matter of taste. Internal or external wall finishes can be added as required. The beam walls can be painted or left with a ‘natural’ look to suit your preference and the local environment. Materials such as roofing are also a matter of your own preference. We understand that if you are building a home of your own, you want it to have the look and feel that suits you and not to be dictated to by being forced to accept a manufacturers “bog standard” appearance.
