Merrick Log Homes and Development Corporation builds to the International residential codes for the state of Alaska.   when possible we build above code.  For example, we place our floor joist systems closer than called for in the codes.  Wile building in this fashion we are able to make a more rigid floor and that adds to the stability of the structure.  This also allows for us to pour a concrete composition over a sub floor system for buyers requesting a radiant heat system.  Additionally, this minimizes flexing in the floor system which is crucial especially when decking is installed to an upper level that will serve as both ceiling and floor.

All of the homes built by Merrick Log Homes carry an R38 roof insulation value.  The spruce logs provide a natural heat sink and slower heat transfer through the walls.  The energy ratings for Merrick Log Homes are usually 4 Star Plus and come with a One-Year Builder's Warranty according to Alaska Stature

All of our homes incorporate wonderful features like, fiber glass entry doors, six panel pine interior doors, cedar trim inside and out, hard wood floors, tiled baths, tiled kitchens, tiled entries, tiled hearths, and metal or shake roofs, along with most any other feature you might have in your dream home.
