We selected Palmatin thanks to fast feedback and informational webpage. There were a lot of house plans and projects. Many other log house companies didn’t offer drawings. We asked price offers from 7 to 8 companies and only received two price offers – one was from Palmatin.
We selected Palmatin because we had already ordered 1 log house previously and we are very satisfied with it.
It is possible to use different stone materials as wall coverings. It is possible to choose from brick, decorative stone, etc. If you use stone as your external wall covering, a special cement board is installed on the prefabricated wall and the stone material will be installed thereupon on the site. In the case of stone covering, a wider foundation must be built to support the wall covering.
It is similar to a stone facade, a special cement board will be installed on the prefabricated walls. The rendering of the facade will take place on the site.
With wooden facade you have many additional options. You may choose between different cladding profiles, types of wood and the manners of treatment of the wood (varnished, painted, impregnated, etc.) Treated wooden cladding will be installed on the prefabricated walls at the factory.

Yes. This is one of our key assets. We will always find the best solution for every client. You can send your log home plans to us and we send you the price estimate with 3d drawings and detailed floor plans.
Many elements impact the price of a house, therefore it is complicated to establish a price without detailing the project. Generally speaking, the price of a log house is influenced by the type of logs, the insulation and choice of materials, the size of the house and construction in the factory, the architecture complexity and the choice of the building package. However, you can consider that one square metre (1m² = 10.7 sq.feet) of floor area costs between 500 to 1200€.
The U-value, or thermal transmittance, is the rate of heat transfer through the structure. The rate will vary depending on the building structure, material, thickness of wood and insulation. The better the insulation of the building is, the lowest the thermal transmittance will be. The U-value thus indicates if a building is efficient when retaining the thermal energy and shows the quality of the insulation. For wooden log, the average U-value of a 180 mm log is estimated at 0,60 W/m²K, meaning that this value can easily be decreased and reached 0,17 W/m²K if the insulation is adapted.
A prefabricated external wall element with wooden facade presents a U-value of 0,16 W/m² whereas the U value of a prefab external wall elements with plastered facade reaches 0,13 W/m²K.
One of our objectives at Palmatin is to provide our clients with quality and affordable products, as the price of the houses should not control the quality of the products. To do so, we select and purchase the raw materials. We establish contact with our clients and work with them on their projects. We also monitor all stages of the manufacturing process. We assist our clients until the house assembly is completed. This process management allows us to manage our costs. Direct purchase and sales, without intermediaries, and efficient controlled production is one of the keys to a good price-quality ratio.
