A rustic retreat home… oh, the benefits of board and batten siding.

Among the benefits… low priced, locally sourced, easy to install, and natural look. For those seeking a rustic log cabin but price is an issue consider the potential of this material, for the entire home, or for part of it.

Board-and-batten is the best method for covering the exterior of a home IF… you want your home to blend into a wooded environment and if you desire a locally sourced material that is easy to apply and inexpensive to purchase.
Log and stone homes cost more, require more skill, and take much more labor, but they each will last for centuries, are more attractive, and any extra funds invested in them will be amply returned with lower maintenance expenses and upon the eventual sale of the home.
