“I will start out by saying that I absolutely love my log cabin. I scoured the Internet for weeks doing my research and settled on Tuin as the best of the bunch. The lukas cabin in particular seems almost unique with its separate shed and summer house under one roof. What a perfect design! Delivery was hassle free and easy. The driver was very good and placed the large pallet on my driveway with no problems. Carrying all the logs to the back garden took me a few hours (I'm 38 and healthy and I was tired so I'd recommend 2 people for this to make it easier). Most of the parts are numbered so I stacked them in like piles for easier assembly. It took me a day on my own to build the walls, another day (with my dad helping) to fit the roof and shingles, another 2 days to paint, and yet another day to fit the floor. This leads me to my only real problem. I opted for the composite starter beams, and when I went to fit the floor, it sat higher than the door threshold. I emailed Tuin, and the only solution is to cut down every single floor beam by approx 20mm! So I found myself with over 50 beams to cut down on my table saw. Not great as I had done nothing wrong. In my opinion the floor kits are not worth the money, you'd be better off buying your own timber for this after the cabin is built. Overall though this was a minor issue and the quality of the cabin is amazing. You will not be disappointed!”
“I spent a lot of time researching log cabins before deciding on Tuin and was very pleased with the quality of the cabin and its value for money. I was kept fully informed about delivery and the driver was excellent, placing the material exactly where I wanted. The cabin took a builder friend just over 2 days to erect and he was impressed with the labelling of the logs to aid construction. Now it is up I am in the process of wood treating it with preservative and then a clear waterproof protective paint which I am hoping will keep it looking good for years. I am a very satisfied customer indeed!”
“the cabin was delivered and off loaded with no problems at all. the pallet was all sealed and we left it on on the drive for 3 days untill we finished the foundations . we then unloaded the pallet and started the assemble we did look at the instruction and videos off the net the wife and myself erected the cabin in 4 days a further 2 days to roof shingles the quality and finish was perfect and over all was a very good buy thank you ,we are both in our 70s”
“Excellent design easy to erect except one piece over the side window was missing but as extra timber had been supplied I was able to cut a piece to length single door frame was split but being a carpenter to trade it was easy to fix and not worth troubling you small problems seeing the amount of timber supplied floor timber could be better as can only be laid one way because wood is rough on one side with knots and sap but overall excellent product and value for money I was happy to recommend your customer service and products. I have painted it grey and white neighbours impressed and two will be putting in orders in the new year sincerely mr jay mckinlay”
“It can be a bit of a minefield finding a quality log cabin & fortunately l chose Tuin . The whole process was simple , professional , the product was very good value & most importantly the Mrs is over the moon . Delivery was spot on & was kept informed , l built my own concrete base 100% level , dug out a path at same time . I also adapted cabin slightly to keep it under 8ft at a ridge so missed a whole top level of timbers , had electrics put on ive cut a doorway in to split shed side & put a saniflow loo in , will put a stud wall up to separate . The whole cabin was simple to build & POSs for one man so yes over all extremely impressed with quality , joints , windows & doors , l also layed kingspan insulation 50mm , floors going down at this very moment”
