I had several conversations with Brad before hiring Pencil Log Pros to media blast and stain our log home in Southwest Colorado. Throughout the process, Brad was prompt, generous with his time, and extremely patient in answering all of my questions. The crew, led by Rose, did an outstanding job navigating challenges like UV-damaged wood and monsoon weather. Rose and her team were meticulous, hardworking, and deeply committed to quality. They took great care in every detail, including spending substantial time helping us review stain samples to ensure we selected the perfect match. Every interaction with their team was positive. The strong work ethic and client-first culture emanate from Brad’s leadership and run through the entire company. I would not hesitate to hire Pencil Log Pros again or recommend them to others.Posted on Google![]()

I Hired Pencil Log Pros to re-stain a large home that I take care of in Mountain Village, and from the start, Brad was very helpful and responsive in answering all the questions and concerns I had. We received a very competitive proposal, and once hired, he and his team were always available to answer questions and give updates throughout every phase of the project. We requested they match an existing stain color from the interior of the home, and their team had the patience to sample over 2 dozen blends to get the color just right. My experience with Brad, Tanya and the rest of the crew was excellent. I won’t hesitate to use them going forward for my future needs at this property. Thanks y’all!

Wow … just wow! From an owner that answers & returns phone calls, texts, and emails in record time to an extremely responsive office manager to incredibly talented frontline craftsmen, Pencil Log Pros is THE company to bring your log home back to its former glory or to keep your log home looking its best! Brad advised us on the overall condition of our log home before we purchased it and then his skilled carpenters replaced a structural beam that was beyond saving. He then sent his restoration crew to sand, soft wash, stain, and seal our 22 year old log home that had been neglected for years. The transformation was incredible and far exceeded our expectations! Kudos to carpenters Caleb & Levi and to restoration specialists Daniel, Taylor, Ivan & Nick … positive attitudes, tremendous work ethic, and pride in their work! You have to love an owner that is always accessible (Brad) and an office manager (Rhonda) that keeps everything and everyone running smoothly. Highly recommend this team of professionals.

Really wish I would’ve hired them sooner. Their team did an excellent job on our cabin. You can tell they bring an attention to detail to their work. We had neglected some of the log maintenance on our place, But they were able to rectify everything beautifully. They were reasonably priced and professional.

Brad Siler and his team at Pencil Log Pros just finished re-siding and re-staining our cabin in the mountains. He was very responsive to our request and kept us fully informed throughout the process. He performed the work in a timely manner and offered great suggestions. We are very satisfied with the work that was done and are very grateful that we didn't have to spend our weekends on ladders!

As someone whose family built a log home 25 years ago, it’s seriously refreshing to finally find true experts - which honestly is not easy to find. After I inquired, I got a phone call maybe a day later from Dillon, who didn’t shy away from any of my anxious questions and seemed to have an answer for everything. When Dan and the team showed up, I was immediately greeted by Dan, who is such a joyful presence. He was always willing to show me how things worked, answer questions, and if he didn’t know something, he was happy to find out. I also really appreciated being included in the process instead of feeling brushed off. And most importantly, the house looks beautiful. You can tell they genuinely care about their work and their clients, which made the entire process feel so much less stressful.
Owner's reply
Sierra, thank you for this incredible review! Your home has a lot of history, and we’re honored that you trusted Pencil Log Pros to help care for it. We’re glad Dillon helped answer your questions early in the process, and we love hearing that Dan and the crew made you feel included, respected, and informed throughout the project. That matters to us. Log home restoration can feel stressful when you’re trying to protect something your family built 25 years ago. Our goal is to make the process clear, professional, and done right. We’re grateful for your kind words and thrilled that you love how the house looks.
