Sue recently asked a question with regard to chinking and exposed logs in a bathroom.
Hi there,
I just discovered your Bearfort website and want to thank you for the interesting reading and the recipe and process for chinking.
I want to ask your advice regarding my old farmhouse. Unless you went to the attic, you wouldn’t know that it is an original hand hewn log house since it is covered with brick and clapboard externally. I am not certain of the exact date of construction, but the PA deed goes back to 1810.
My dilemma comes with the need to replace plaster walls due their extreme deterioration. I have salvaged plaster in all the public rooms but then we come to the current downstairs bathroom which the previous owner “remuddled” in the 1970′s. Log home magazines never seem to dwell on bathroom interiors.
