 In
1990, I had the desire to live in a log home and began the process
of buying a log kit. With the purchase of the kit, I was given
the promise of a builder who would build it into my dream home. That
builder never came. Out of necessity and through perseverance, I
took the log kit and built the home myself. My effort received
attention from many individuals who were having the same problem
getting their kits built into a log home, and they began asking for
my help.
This experience, along with my love
for the log home style, led me to selling log kits for a major
company. I wanted to provide both log home materials and the
construction necessary to get the home built. I found success in
selling the kits for the package company, but I was very
disheartened with the problems that would arise between the
homeowner who had purchased the kit and the log package company. As
the builder, I was in the middle. I knew there had to be a better
way.
I realized that you do not go to an
automobile dealer, buy a car kit, have it shipped to your home in
crates, with the promise of a good mechanic to put it together. So
why would you buy a log home in the same manner?
A homeowner needed a place where
they could buy a log home, not just a log home "kit".
With that realization Old Hickory
Log Homes & Construction was born. Located in the heart of
“Nascar Race Country” near Lake Norman, we have become the premier Log
Home builder for this area. We offer turn-key, and dry-in log homes with
the simplicity of conventional style homes. The response to our concept of
clients working with one company that provides both log home materials and
labor has been phenomenal. Being able to provide a completed log
home for hundreds of deserving homeowners over the years has given
me great satisfaction.
Our own dedicated craftsmen
build log homes of outstanding quality. Each new encounter with a
client and their unique home ideas, gives us an exciting challenge
to accomplish what they may have thought was impossible. And we do
it with great pride.
