THE STRONGEST PROJECTS START HERE
A striking floor plan is not enough. The design must also account for access, views, snow, drainage, roof geometry, construction method, budget, maintenance, and the way the home will be used for decades.
A Frontier Log Homes Design Contract helps you:
✓
Shape the floor plan around your land, views, and daily life
✓
Align size, materials, features, and complexity with your budget
✓
Compare full-log, hybrid, timber-frame, dry-in, and turn-key options
✓
Plan rooflines, snow shedding, drainage, and maintenance early
✓
Create a clearer path to engineering, estimating, permitting, and construction
Begin with a blank page, modify an existing Frontier Log Homes plan, or bring plans and ideas you already have. The Design Contract creates a defined first step.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT LEVEL OF SUPPORT
Your location, budget, experience, and desired level of involvement determine the right construction path. Frontier Log Homes helps you choose the approach that fits the project.
Large custom homes in logs, timber, stone, glass, and conventional framing — designed and built by a licensed General Contractor on Colorado’s Western Slope.

EXPLORE DRY-IN CONSTRUCTION
BUILT FOR COMPLEX MOUNTAIN WORK
Mountain projects create challenges long before the first log is set. Access roads, delivery routes, equipment placement, snow, drainage, steep terrain, existing structures, and remote coordination can change the entire build.
Frontier Log Homes has handled helicopter-supported installation, heavy mountain logistics, complex additions, and projects requiring close coordination with owners, architects, engineers, contractors, and local trades.
Remote Access & Delivery
Plan roads, transport, equipment, staging, and difficult terrain before materials arrive.
Log & Timber Assembly
Experienced crews work with handcrafted structural log and timber systems.
Complex Additions
Connect new work to existing log structures with careful planning and coordination.
Project Coordination
Work with owners, architects, engineers, general contractors, and skilled trades.
A LEGACY STILL AT WORK
Frontier Log Homes recently returned to an Arizona home the company built in the early 1990s. More than three decades later, the current owners needed help planning a complex addition.
That project reflects what an operating history since 1977 means: the homes remain, the knowledge stays with the company, and the next generation continues learning the craft.
Established in 1977. Still standing behind the work decades later.

A CLEARER PATH FORWARD
Every project is different. The strongest projects move through four clear decisions.
01
Discuss the property, how you want to live, what the home should include, and the investment range you are considering.
02
Use a Design Contract to develop or refine the floor plan, construction style, major features, site considerations, and next steps.
03
Select a log package, dry-in, turn-key, hybrid, timber-frame, addition, or consultation path based on the project.
04
Frontier Log Homes completes the agreed scope and coordinates the transition into fabrication, delivery, assembly, or construction.
SELECTED FRONTIER LOG HOMES WORK
From custom log homes and mountain retreats to timber details, interiors, and difficult-site construction, every project begins with a different piece of land and a different vision.

CUSTOM LOG HOME QUESTIONS
Every property and project is different. These answers explain where Frontier Log Homes fits and what to expect before beginning.
START YOUR DESIGN CONTRACT
A Design Contract begins the custom planning process. Frontier Log Homes works with you to develop or refine the plan, align it with your land, budget, construction method, and project goals, and define the next steps. The final scope and deliverables are listed in the agreement.
No. As a licensed general contractor, Frontier Log Homes builds custom full-log homes, hybrid homes, timber-frame homes, and conventional custom homes with log and timber features — plus selected turn-key construction, complex additions, dry-in projects, and custom log and timber components.
Yes. Frontier Log Homes provides custom log packages, delivery, assembly, design support, and project consultation for clients across the United States. General contracting and selected turn-key construction are limited to approved service areas on Colorado’s Western Slope.
Yes. Frontier Log Homes can begin with one of its existing floor plans, review plans you already have, or develop a custom direction based on your land, lifestyle, and project goals. The appropriate design scope is defined before work begins.
Yes. Frontier Log Homes is a licensed general contractor offering selected turn-key construction and general-contracting within its approved Western Slope service area — managing everything from excavation and foundation through roofing, mechanical systems, finishes, and the final walk-through. Outside that area, Frontier supplies the log structure, supports assembly, and coordinates with your local contractor.
Yes, based on the structure, condition, location, scope, and project fit. Log-home additions require careful planning around rooflines, settling, structural connections, water management, and matching the existing construction.
A log package fits owners who have a qualified local contractor or want to manage more of the build. Dry-in takes the exterior structure farther. Turn-key places more project responsibility with Frontier Log Homes. A Design Contract helps determine which path fits your location, budget, and desired level of involvement.
Bring the property location, approximate budget, desired square footage, preferred style, target timeline, and any surveys, plans, sketches, or photographs you already have. You do not need to have every detail decided before beginning the conversation.
