ABOUT

Hearthstone features an unmatched ability to create any imaginable style of custom, luxury, handcrafted heavy-timber or log based home or commercial structure. Nobody in the world has the reputation, capacity, and experience — in one company — to deliver as we can. The process of engineering, CAD / CAM modeling, crafting, delivering, erecting, and constructing one of these wondrous buildings is not easy, and the cost of doing it wrong, or shabbily, or cheaply is high. Our unequaled, money-back guarantee says it all about our confidence… and your assurance… that we can do the job right.

 

We offer three broad product lines of kindred spirit — all featuring highly crafted logs and timbers, and all rooted in the art and trade of the timberwright. Hand Hewn Log Homes recall the traditional log homes from the 18th and 19th century, featuring hewn-flat logs with dovetailed corners and chinking between the logs. Timber Frame Homes feature heavy timber framework, exposed in dramatic interior spaces, combined with any imaginable interior style or exterior finish.  We also produce dramatic open-air pavilions and event venue barns for weddings, gatherings, and other events. 

has now been with Hearthstone for 42 years.  When his parents built their log home back in 1975, they were so impressed with Hearthstone that they eventually became Hearthstone's Georgia distributor.  

John is now a Project Manager with Hearthstone and operates from his home in Middle Georgia, (which is a modified Pioneer model log home).  During his years with Hearthstone, he has accumulated a vast understanding of construction and design techniques that were innovated by Hearthstone. John will employ this knowledge of construction to make sure that you get the most efficient combination of design features, materials, and services. He will coordinate this with you and your builder so that we provide the materials and services that your builder would not be able to come up with and also to insure that your builder gets the local materials and services that Hearthstone is unable to provide efficiently due to shipping, margins, and availability. 

You are invited to take advantage of his expertise and knowledge in the planning of your new home. Contact him at his office (478) 474-9370 or on his cell phone at (478) 747-4076.
