Whether you use your log cabin as a vacation rental, weekend getaway or as a primary residence, you want to make sure you take the best care to preserve and enhance the beauty of your property. Stain removal from any type of wood surfaces can be difficult, especially if it’s not handled appropriately.

Soda blasting removes years of stains, grime and dirt build-up without damaging or compromising the wood structure and professional contractors experienced with media blasting know how to prepare the job correctly.

Like car restoration projects and boat bottom jobs, soda blasting restores log cabins back to the original condition. But how do you know if your log cabin is ready or in need of a restoration?

Ask yourself the following:

• Have you recently constructed an addition on the cabin?

The new structure could have a different color compared to the original cabin.

• Do you plan to sell your cabin or convert it into a weekend retreat?

The cabin could need a little pick-me-upper on the curb appeal to make it a more attractive buy or destination.

• Does your cabin have that weathered, worn-out look?

If it seems that it just doesn’t have the same shine it did a few years back, it might just need a quick restore – it’s a great way to preserve the structure too!
