At Country Heritage Homes, all the products in our home packages have gone through a rigorous selection process to ensure each material meets our stringent standards. The objective is to provide the best quality product for maximum durability and aesthetic appeal at the best price. You, our valued customer in turn receive not only great value but peace of mind.  

Our Lumber has been selected from the prolific forests of the Pacific Northwest by our preferred sawmills and precision milled using the latest laser technology. This premium selected SPF lumber is then kiln dried to 19% or less moisture content.  Kiln dried lumber ensures that your floors, walls and roof are straight and true. No need to worry about the problems associated with green and inferior lumber commonly available at most building yards, such as sagging roofs, crooked walls or lifting floors. Our lumber gives you a reliable building material you can count on for optimum, lasting performance.  

Our Floors are supplied with 2x6 treated sill plates, 2x10 solid lumber joists at 16" or 12" on centers as required, 2x2 precut cross bridging and 5/8" tongue and groove plywood subfloor. We even provide the glue and screws for fixing the plywood to the joists.

Our Exterior Walls are made of premium 2 x 6 grade material for a stronger and more energy efficient system. The studs are 16" on center with single bottom and double top plates. Appropriate framing is also supplied for all openings. Precision crafted prefabricated wall sections are standard. The equivalent components can be shipped unassembled to some geographic areas. This means our walls can be erected quicker and more efficiently to make your home weatherproof and secure as soon as possible.

Our Glu-Lam Beams are included in every Country Heritage home package. These are installed so that the roof rafters rest on top of the center beam to provide the best looking effect for the interior vaulted ceiling.  To achieve this result we only use the highest quality architectural grade beams made of Douglas Fir which provide both advanced strength and aesthetic appeal. A beautiful wood architectural feature that brings warmth to your vaulted room great room.

An optional Arctic Zone system can upgrade your roof to meet the most severe snow and insulation requirements.

Our Sheathing  used for the exterior walls and roof, is engineered to have strength and stiffness equivalent to plywood, but has no core voids or knotholes. OSB is a extremely consistent product that never has a soft spot and is reliably stiff. Also, OSB is 2 times stronger than plywood in resisting shear conditions. As a more efficient use of wood fiber, it is more uniform and environmentally friendly building material. Now, up to 80% of homes built in North America use OSB as sheathing.
