“We built our Lulea cabin in June 2021 and we love it, the cabin looks very pretty, myself and my husband love spending our evenings and weekends when we can in there, its like a little retreat away from home especially since we both work from home. Thank you to Tuin for making the experience from ordering to finishing our project on the whole a fantastic and smooth experience. The communication was great and responses to little hiccups was prompt. The driver who brought the cabin, he was very nice and jolly and spent a few minutes with us chatting before he left. The wealth of information that is on website is fantastic and vast, we learned so much and was a great help in getting prepared for when it arrived. Our advice is to read as much of the information as possible, getting the base correct and level is vital and get your base measurements correct. Watch the videos and you will find some others on YouTube that may be helpful. Doing this before your cabin arrives helps a great deal as we found the instructions difficult to follow. So the preparation work before is essential especially if you are amateurs like we are. A professional would be able to put this up within a couple of days but it took us a week but we also added roof and floor insulation, so that added time on to the build. As recommended we then treated the cabin with two coats of Sadolin Natural, which is one of Tuins recommended brands. Its expensive but well worth it. Oh, when unpacking the parts on arrival, do this carefully to avoid any breakages. My husband did most of the work and who bravely got on top of the cabin to fit the shingles, my hero! The shingles do look great far better than normal shed felt. Hope you enjoy your Lulea cabin just as much as we do if you decide on this one.”
“Spent a long time looking for a reasonable priced cabin that tick all the boxes. The lulea cabin is a very well manufactured structure and treated correctly will last a life time. You can build it yourself but it helps to have two people to lift up the roof beams. As per other reviews the instruction are better of in the bin. Do all your homework whilst you are waiting for the delivery. Use the online help and videos and you will not have any problems with the build. I spent many hours researching and it paid of when it came to the build. Before laying any form of flooring make sure it is water tight. I had water ingress under the foundation beams. This was resolved using frame sealent on the outside. I did use a DPM but this still didnt seal it 100% For treatmeant of the wood i used Barrettine Premier Wood Preserver. Gave it 2 coats and then a coat of clear Barrettine Decking Oil, the water just bounces off. The shuttering i used {100mm} for the concret base was then cleanded up and used as the foundation beams. I already had used slabs underneath and rubble so decided i did not need anything deeper than 100mm. I could not be more than happy with the cabin and would not hesitant recommending Tuin, they are one of the top suppliers for cabins at a price to suit all.”
“The service was excellent and the product was as described. only a small comment perhaps the instructions could be a bit clearer particularly with the novice in mind, would buy another product from this company and highly recommend to all. M Carrington”
“Love our Lulea log cabin. The quality is excellent. We were intimidated when we received the wood and watched the video but once we started we were amazed how easy it was.”
“I ordered the Lulea Log cabin after a lot of thinking which one to buy. The service was awesome and the delivery driver deserves a medal getting the 14 foot pallet down my road and on to the drive. The log cabin is awesome and very strong and warm inside, It took about 3 days to build but well worth it. Thank u tuin.”
“I purchased this Log Cabin at the same time as a Dunster House Cabin of the same size and price. I would have bought 2 cabins from the same supplier but neither would do a deal for 2. The Overall look is very similar but the Dunster House is much better quality, the door locks and hinges are far better, the fit and finish of the doors is better on the D.H. The Tuin is delivered in 1 big package on a forklift but the Dunster House is delivered by 2 men who kindly placed the cabin much nearer the site. The finished cabin is fine and without the comparison I would be very happy with it,but ,If I were to do it again I would definitely go for the competitors product.”
