Our selection of contractors went from us selecting the best candidate to us settling for the only candidate.

We approached several local contractors and consistently ran up against the common responses of "Don't have time on the schedule" or " Don't do log homes." Time and money are burning. We had a framing contractor who is talented and efficient but he back out at the last minute.

We now are left with just one option. A friend of ours, a stucco/plaster contractor, recommended a guy that might be able to help us but has no other references. We are meeting with him this afternoon.

We really hope this works out this afternoon. We need to get construction started and don't have any other options for a contractor at this point.
