Log-Crete

Log-Crete was designed by Bob Romportl, a life-long resident of Spooner which is a small town in northwest Wisconsin. The idea first emerged when Romportl, visiting the tropical island of the Philippines, dreamed to build a log house there that could endure the effects of termites, typhoons, and fire but still maintain the beauty of wood. After coming up with a plan in the mid 1990's for a house that had the natural beauty of logs but also the durability of concrete, the first Log-Crete home was born.

Our Business

Our business involves constructing structures that are made of concrete but have the appearance of logs. Log-Crete specializes in fences, signs & billboards, store fronts, fireplace mantles, bird feeders, retaining walls, and just about anything where beauty, durability and longevity are desired.

Who We Are

The builders of Log-Crete are Bob Romportl and nephew Tom Romportl. After innovating the idea of a concrete log house to the United States, it was decided to construct the first, super insulated, U.S. Log-Crete Home (see photos).
