I am considering purchasing a log home, but am concerned after reading several questions which people state they are covering log homes with vinyl due to upkeep. Why is this?

You should plan on budgeting about $1.50 per sq ft of living space/PER YEAR for professional maintenance. So a 2,000 sq ft house would require that you budget $3,000 per year so that on the 3rd or 4th year you will have the $9k to $10K to have it done.
You can do it for a lot less if you are willing and able to do it yourself.
