“Very pleased with the Peter Cabin. Arrived on a Tuesday in the middle of December and managed to erect the cabin the following day with a friend. No real problems although getting the door to fit properly took some time. I then spent the next 2 weeks trying to find time to fit the floor, roof both with 40mm insulation and paint it. Ideally I would have preferred to have built in warmer weather. Now it is completed with electrics and I am really pleased that I went for 34mm logs, 27mm floor, gutter and insulation.”
“We received exceptional customer service and communication from Richard and Karern at Tuin before and after ordering. Our cabin was delivered very quickly and is of the best quality at an affordable price. It looks really beautiful in the garden and the roof shingles set the building off very nicely. Richard's blog is helpful because the paper instructions are quite minimal but we managed construction in 2 days, including the roof. Thank you so much for providing a first class product and service. We have already recommended Tuin to friends and neighbours.”
“From first point of contact to delivery the service was excellent. Erecting the cabin was straight forward. Having put two coats of Sadolin Extra Durable Mohogany Stain with contrasting front elevation of Ronseal Clear Varnish I am delighted with the result. I have emailed a photograph.”
“Phone call day before stating time of delivery. Excellent delivery service, very helpful, pallet conveniently positioned down the driveway. Product well wrapped and protected from rain. On unpacking the pallet tie bands had damaged the thin weather strip on the door, fixed by 5 or 6 screws, this can easily be replaced. I had already constructed a brick base with DPC and 100x25mm treated timber on top to form a solid and level support for the cabin and provided a concrete floor. One man build. The building fitted together perfectly, progress was slow as the edges of each of the logs were treated with thinned yacht whilst assembling. At eaves height and after checking for level and square, both inside and out was "washed" with thinned yacht varnish. Door furniture and some trims removed to allow a more thorough varnish treatment. Roof T&G boards fitted not to tight so as to allow for natural movement. Roof line at one side extended by 800mm to provide side shelter, a roof membrane was used under the shingles, 63x38mm chamfered timber was fixed along the edges of the roof timbers so as to create a cleaner line, reinforcement and a vertical face to fix a upvc soffit to take mini guttering. Has taken me a week to build, but looks the business. the roof shingles and finishing will probably take 2-3 days Investigated cabins for 4 months before purchase, good decision. Used 10 litres of yacht varnish inside and out, 4 coats. If you're a DIYer it's good fun and a good solid structure to personalise. Good product highly recommended, professional company.”
“From the very first enquiry to the delivery and during the building of our Peter log cabin we have had nothing but quick reliable and helpful service from Richard and his team at Tuin. We had shopped around for the best buy and Tuin seemed to offer the best value for money so once we had decided on the cabin we wanted we went ahead and placed the order. We were told that within the week of ordering a delivery date would be confirmed and once the date was confirmed the payment was taken which seems a very fair way of organising things, when the wagon arrived with our cabin and after unloading and checking the consignment we fully expected that that would be the end of Turins responsibility, but not so even the driver was giving building tips and, over a cup of coffee, being generally helpful regarding the build. During the build we had a few queries but Richard and his team were quick and responsive and only too happy to help and came back sometimes within in minutes including weekends and bank holidays. With thanks to the Tuin team we now have a cabin to be proud of located at the bottom of our garden which my wife and I, who incidentally are pensioners are very proud of and have had much admiration from both neighbours and friends in the appearance of the cabin and our achievement in the building of it, this could not have been done without the help and support from Tuin. Thank you to Richard and the team at Tuin we will definitely recommend you. Incidentally, I did say to Richard that as we have taken photos over the progression of the build and we would post these pictures on, unfortunately due to the inclement weather we are unable to include the final completed picture which is a pity. But hopefully this may be possible to do in the not too distant future.”
“I am really pleased with the log cabin. Excellent support from Richard who answered a couple of questions about installation very quickly. The cabin is perfect for our needs and looks amazing!”
“Helpful and friendly on the phone, delivered on time, easy to build, exceptional value and higher quality than a larger more expensive one I purchased last year”
