It is an online tradeshow format with live video and text chats, videos, downloadables and workshop webinars.

We are so happy to share a heart warming follow-up that we received from the amazing people who adopted this pre-loved Pan-Abode into their family! The new owner provided us with the following touching count of her journey towards her new home : I grew up in Ontario spending weekends and summers at the family cottage: this building and this land that had been in my family since 1895. I knew my ancestors through the trees, the water, the tongue and groove pine paneling t...Continue reading

We have a special heart warming story for you today! It is the story of a beautiful Pan-Abode that was constructed originally in 1959 in the Cultus Lake area! Over the years, as the family grew, an addition was added to the original structure in the 70’s. The current owners have enjoyed making memories in their little Pan-Abode for the last 12 years! They were sad to see it go but thankfully they were able to see it off to a wonderful new family who are so excited to star...t their new chapter! As many of you already know, and for those of you that don’t already, due to the incredible sustainability of our Western Red Cedar logs, our homes can be disassembled and relocated to a new property!! This lovely Pan-Abode embarked on this journey recently when it was disassembled to prepare for its new adventure with it’s new Pan-Abode family to enjoy for years to come . We've added some photos of the disassembly steps of this little Pan-Abode's journey for you and will keep you posted along the way! So keep an eye out for upcoming updates and stories from new owner about her experiences with the disassembly! #buildprogress #panabode #loghomedisassembly #disassembly #newhome #westernredcedar #homekits #canada #cottagelove #loghomes #prefabcabin #building #usa #cabinlifestyle #buildyourown #customhomedesign #prefabhouse #relocation #loghomeconstruction #loghomeliving #panabodeinternational #loghomekits #logcabin #cedarhomes #panabodecedarhome #cabinlove #logcabin

Pan-Abode family, We have a special testimonial to share with you today from a couple who have been living in and loving their beautiful Pan-Abode for 48 years and counting! We were so touched to receive these kind words from them that we wanted to share with everyone here who will likely share in the love that they have expressed for their home!... Changes were made to the roof in order to increase the insulation to try and alleviate some of the strain on their air conditioner with the surge of heat waves that we have all been experiencing these last few years At first, they expressed being were unsure about raising the roof of the house by a foot, but now that everything is completed, they are finding it to be very appealing and extremely practical! They stated that It looks solid and sturdy as if it was meant to be. We think it looks pleasing to the eye! They have also generously provided us with photos from their construction phase, permission to share them with all of you and mentioned that After 48 years the cedar roof planks look brand new which is yet another testatement to the durability of our Select Tight Knot tongue and groove Western Red Cedar! Their message reads: Hello Pan abode, Thank you for sending detailed drawings and info about roof modification on our house. Construction has been complete for a few weeks and already we have noticed that the air conditioner does not run as much so good things are happening. We used the two by sixteen rafters with r-40 insulation. You will notice that the house is painted . That was done to match our other buildings. We like the color and it is much easier to maintain. Also I would like to mention the inside of the house looks brand new. It is amazing how the cedar stands up to age. We have used Swedish oil on the inside twice in 48 years and it is like day one when it was first built. We hope you enjoy these pictures and please keep in touch. It is not often in this day and age that we can find a company that looks after their customers even after 48 years.(Built the house in 1972) Thank you Pan abode and now we are good for another 48 years. Faithful and happy customers!

Recently, we had the pleasure of meeting with a wonderful man and touring his beautiful Pan-Abode home that he had built himself over 40 years ago with the help of only one neighbor! When he offered to open his home to us, we were fortunate enough to be able to surprise him with a framed copy of the home plana that meant so much to him and his family for so many years. Thank you so much Ben for sharing the love and care that you brought year after year to your cherished... home #buildprogress #panabode #westernredcedar #homekits #canada #cottagelove #customhomes #loghomes #prefabcabin #building #usa #cabinlifestyle #buildyourown #customhomedesign #prefabhouse #yourmapleridge #panabodeinternational #loghomekits #logcabin #cedarhomes #panabodecedarhome #cabinlove #logcabin #cedarlove See more

It's getting to be that time of year again, where we freeze and melt multiple times a day ;) Unfortunately, this means that our homes are also put through the rigors brought on by the incessant temperature changes which can sometimes result in unwanted condensation. BC Hydro released a fantastic article in regards to this that we thought worthy of sharing to our families!... https://www.bchydro.com///limit-condensation-at-home.html #bchydro #condensationsolved #winterweather #canadianwinter #loghomes #westernredcedarhomes #cedarhomes #homecare #logcare #panabode #ontarioliving #bclife #albertatemperatures
