“Great service all round, delivery driver was excellent and got a very large pallet into a very narrow drive. The Tuin website is very informative and everything they say they will do they do which is refreshing. I've put my cabin on a slightly raised wooden frame, due to gradient change front to back, supported on 600x600x50mm slabs. Richard's expert written ideas for wooden frames was invaluable. I went for profiled foundation beams which in hindsight was probably overkill given the wooden frame and my design did not cater for the back lip on these beams which I had to notch out to allow for the beams on my wooden frame. I took about a week on and off to get the base and wooden frame ready to accept the cabin, I did listen to the all important rule get the base square and level. The cabin itself went up in less than 6 hours, (walls and purlins). Roof boards ( a tedious job) took about 4 hours and the shingles (even more tedious) took another 5 hours. I'm really happy with my purchase, quality and finish miles better than the Uk versions Iooked at at garden centres. I wouldn't change a thing if I had my time again and would recommend a Tuin log cabin to anyone.”
“After searching ages & ages through the internet, at garden centres and other log cabin supplies I cam across Tuin- & by golly- I'm very pleased I did. The ordering was completely painless, delivery was absolutely as promised, the delivery driver more than helpful to ensure the pallet was placed in exactly the right place. Although I could not erect the cabin for a while because I was making a solid concrete foundation, when me & a friend started to erect it was complete in just over 1 day. This would have been one day, but for the fact that it was being erected in a freezing January. Shingles took another day to fit. Throughout the whole process, erection was flawless- all the parts fitted together perfectly, without having ti fiddle about with any part to fit it correctly. The doors & window opened & closed perfectly. All parted were absolutely accurate & at the end I have a workshop that, I'm sure will last for years. My base was 4" of mill waste whacked down, a damp proof membrane then 4" reinforced concrete. I'm aware that this might be a bit of an overkill, but wanted to ensure longevity. As an aside, I am a reasonably competent DIY'er, but if that was not the case, i cannot see any reason that someone less skilled could not complete the build- although understandaby it might take a little longer. I finished the building wit 2 coats of Sadolin extra durable wood finish. To all who are thinking about a log cabin, my suggestion is to immediately stop searching & buy a Tuin one. You won't be disappointed- value for money is superb- so much so that I'll soon be ordering another for my wife!”
“I spent months researching the log cabin minefield online - 100's of companies offering numerous types and sizes, a real headache - There is only one company to use & that's Tuin. The cabin is of V high quality 45mm logs, nothing compares for the price (we visited a few places) - Our builder found it very easy to erect, the whole thing was completed within two days , the main walls within a few hours (the roof & shingles take the most time & patience!) . The service and communication was fantastic, delivery very swift & direct from Holland - Very well packed with zero defects and even spares included!! - Be warned the packaging is large (5mtr long)..Make sure you have room to store if not erecting that day..! I have no problem recommending Tuin to anybody wanting a Log Cabin - Tip: Make sure you use a very high quality wood protector, this will add a few 100 to the total cost, but very well worth the investment.”
