Kit log home company sued over “Toxic Home Syndrome” From log treatment

July 13, 2007 by LogHomes Editor

http://www.law.emory.edu/1circuit/sept96/95-2084.01a.html A Circuit Court Judge (who bought a kit log home) sues a log home manufacture because she had a toxic reaction to preservatives used on her log home. Who wants to live in a un-natural toxic cesspool and end up suffering from “symptoms of gastritis, and… Intermittent stomach and back pain [due to an] elevated level of pentachlorophenol” in their body!!!! This was a problem that could have been entirely avoided with just a little bit of knowledge.

Student In Log Home

"Building this house has been the time of our life!! We would really like to thank LHBA for all that they did to help us achieve this amazing feat...

We are now mortgage free!!! Wow what a feeling. I never imagined that it could be done the way we did it, Mortgage free that is... 2 years ago when we sat in that classroom I never even thought that 2 years later I would be typing this in my beautiful mortgage free home...

Thank you LHBA!!!"

What our students say

Steve and Ellsworth are/were fantastic. I got enough value for the seminar by lunch on Saturday. The rest was gravy.
