I own a log home and have been living here for about 5 years. The bottom logs around the side of the house that gets sun and the back porch where the water splashes on it are very rotten with wood rot.I want to clean out the rot, apply epoxy, put 2 X 6 wood in the cavity, spray foam in it and when it dries I’m going to seal with hardy board and put wood shingles on it, rather than hiring someone to do it. I have no money for a contractor. Is this feasible? I have to do something. Help!!! T
Everything sounds be fine, but use Energy Seal caulk instead of the foam. I would also recommend brushing a good heavy coat of Shell Guard borate on the logs once you dig out the rot, and before you apply the epoxy. Call Timeless wood Care at 800-564-2987 for the caulk, epoxy and borate.
