“We're really pleased with our log cabin, it looks great. It was quick to put up as we'd already made a wooden deck to sit it on, in fact it went up in a day. The tricky bit has been getting the shingles on, so we ensured we put a waterproof membrane on first. All that's left to do is the floor inside the cabin. The service and info from The supplier was excellent. NB it arrives on a huge articulated lorry, so definitely check your access is good.”
“Overall we love this cabin, it's perfect for what we wanted as a mix of indoor space & an outdoor shaded area. We built it ourselves and are delighted with the quality of the kit, but there were some tricky bits ! Delivery was brilliant - just make sure you have room to unload & store a 5 mtr wide pallet ! Check & sort all the timbers by type/length as it makes assembly much easier. The foundation timbers & walls go up quickly & easy. Roof timbers are tricky as they go in all directions & didn't look like they would fit - until they were all put in place & pulled everything together. The roof boards were all precut to shape - helpful as the roof has a lot of angles & corners. The infill panel over the doors is another area where the instructions were inadequate - I ended up putting in battens to secure this to as there was no obvious way of fixing it in place without these. We fitted a waterproof membrane before the shingles to waterproof the cabin asap - a good move in the end as 3 weeks on I still haven't finished the shingles - what a pain they are ! Overall : Great fun - but not as easy as it should have been!”
