About
Cardi Log Home Restoration is a trade name of Cardi Contracting LLC. We restore and maintain log and timber homes across New England.
Owner input needed
Cardi Log Home Restoration grew out of a simple observation: most log homes that need restoring didn’t have to. They needed someone to look closely every year, fix small things before they turned into big ones, and do each step in the right order.
We work across all of New England, from coastal homes taking salt air to mountain homes buried in snow, and we plan every job around the conditions that home actually faces.
Our approach
Every job starts with an inspection, with readings and photos on every wall, and a written scope that tells you what we found and what we recommend, in order.
We’d rather tell you a wall only needs a wash and a maintenance coat than sell you a full strip it doesn’t need. When a full restoration is the right call, we do every step: strip to sound wood, repair and treat, seal, then finish.
Why Cardi
You see exactly what each elevation needs and why, with moisture readings and photos. No single number on the back of a card.
Inspect, strip, repair, seal, protect, maintain. We don’t skip steps to save a day, because skipped steps are what make finishes fail.
Logs are dried and tested under 19% moisture before any finish goes on, and the readings are recorded.
Log-specific finish systems that let moisture out. Never paint, never deck stain.
Product, color, batch and coat count are written down, so maintenance coats match years later.
If a wall only needs a wash and a topcoat, that’s what we’ll tell you.
