Palmatin sales consultant was very helpful and we always got information that we needed. The whole selling process was made professionally and this was the main reason why we selected Palmatin.

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.
Basic – includes drawings for the log part, log part of the house, T-battens for openings, hydro isolation between the foundation and first log row, wooden dowels, isolation between the logs, special metallic parts and packages to be delivered in the order of assembly. The Basic kit is suitable if you wish to buy only the walls of the house and build the rest of the house yourself.
Standard – in addition to the Basic kit, this kit includes rafters, roof hydro isolation, ventilation slats, sarking, first floor joists, balcony joists, windows, exterior doors and special metallic accessories.

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.
When building the houses, we use two varieties of wood: pine and spruce. These types of wood provide with a warm climate, due to low density. During summertime, the house is kept fresh thanks to the wood breathing features. Also, the wood is solid, flexible and resistant.
A log house does not need major maintenance after completion. However, punctual maintenance, careful attention to the house and some refreshment are necessary. The new log house owner can adjust metallic tie rods and metallic rods, following the instructions we provide. The wood facade should be refreshed with new stain or paint after a few years to preserve its beautiful aspects. All the care methods and advice are detailed in the care instructions provided by the company.
Building a wooden house or prefabricated house on a construction site requires preliminary preparations and the availability of machines. You should first be ensured that the necessary and common tools (hammer, screwdrivers…) can be provided. To unload and move the log and prefabricated elements, a crane is necessary. A waste container might be placed to keep the site clean. Works-at-height have to be realized on a secured scaffolding. If a team is present on the construction site, additional material might be needed. Palmatin provides in advance the instructions and advice to prepare correctly the construction site.
