“This review is a little belated so sorry for that. The whole process from ordering to delivery to implementation and building the shed was smooth and effective. The delivery guy fought his way through Gail force winds and rain to delivery on time. All the kit was there and a few extras for any mishaps. I have a minimal background in building , but the whole process was manageable . I had a few quires about the drawings but they where dealt with within 24 hours. I would have no hesitation of recommending this company Thank you to Tuin for your help . David”
“i have waited a long time for my summer house . Now it is coming soon . The staff at Tuin have been helpful and not their fault that it has taken so long . looking forward to its delivery”
“I was fairly happy with the Tuin delivery and kit. I did read the instructions fully and consulted, I did my best to create a level base to build upon. The time spent doing so proved invaluable when putting the kit together. The worst bit to sort out was the door as little was available in the material or on the website for a single door at an angle as per this kit. I did manage to get it to fit but had to put some extra washers on the hinges to make it fit nicely. In general it went together simply as you went along once the base was level. I would however say I am good at building and woodwork and I think those not particularly well gifted with DIY skills would struggle. I am however happy with my "man cave" I wanted a place to keep my tools and have a workbench to do things on as I have no garage here. In fact the pallet was so solid I used that to make my work bench along with some other packing. If I should ever need another log cabin I would be prepared to buy one again from Tuin.”
“Working in my kitchen for the last 14 months was not great , so I decided to look at the options for the Garden . So after many months of looking I decided to purchase teh Petit log cabin , Very good CS , Very good communication and great delivery and delivery driver . It took about 3 weekends ( the weather was rubbish for most of it , and to be fair my neighbours helped me for most of the process . It is just what I wanted , looks great and is large enough for a desk PC and all you need to work form home . Would recommend in many ways . Take your time and just think about location and what you want to use it for . Well done Tuin”
“I purchased the small corner log cabin from Tuin earlier this year. The cabin certainly did not disappoint, it is fantastic in both quality, style and customer service. The delivery driver was also wonderful, friendly and professional. I paid a professional to build this for me and he was really impressed with the cabin in terms of quality and price. I followed the advice by Tuin and ordered their suggested products in order to seal and protect it too. It is a bit more expensive than some of your regular sealants but if you are spending that much on a cabin you need to look after it and you get what you pay for with some things. The sealant product was easy to use and then I followed this up with their recommended paint. Ive applied several coats but that was my choice as I want to take the time to protect my shed and I had ample paint to do so. All round I would highly recommend Tuin and all of their products. A big thank you to all at Tuin.”
“Because I had already built a Riina 3x3 cabin as an art studio for my wife, I thought it time to treat myself. There was an ideal space left in my garden that would take a Petit 2x2 cabin. This has a similar shape and has the same quality of timber as its bigger sister. The site for the base was uneven and sloping so I built a ring foundation from 70x70 square treated timber supported at the lower ends by Tuins clever plastic screw jacks sitting on small paving slabs. Building the Petit was fast, simple and straightforward. Everything fitted and I insulated the roof and then the floor using 1200x450x50mm polyurethane slabs. I topped the roof with guttering, a downpipe and Tuin's black pyramid complete with brass ball. Like its bigger sister, the Riina cabin, it looks a treat. The only adverse comment I can make is, like the other Tuin cabins, the door opens outwards like a shed instead of inwards like a house. This will not be a problem for many people but for me, whose garden is exposed to the wind, it is. The door on the Riina has already been damaged when the wind blew it back against the post splitting the timber. The door on the Petit is narrower than its frame so I can remove it, turn the frame round and refit the door so it opens inwards. That solves one problem. The doors on the Riina are wider than the inside frame so they cannot be turned to open inwards. So I have fitted a stop rope from the base of the doorpost to the fascia board. When the door is open the top of the door comes to rest against the rope before it can hit the doorpost. This long rope now works as a spring and shock absorber.”
“Excellent product is a potting gardening shed for my wife. She is very pleased now it is painted and shelved. It looks very good by the fish pond. Very good value for the cost Fitted a log store lean-to to the rear and fitted a Tuin floor. Finished off with the roof brass ball finial it matches our Tuin Larch Gazebo This is my 3rd Tuin build cannot recommend it highly enough”
“This is a wonderful wooden cabin. Its fits beautifully in the corner of our garden and is of a really high quality. I was very impressed when I was putting it together, although I have to admit I was surprised at the amount of work involved (I mistakenly thought itd be more flat pack! It does take quite a bit of putting together!). Its a real garden showpiece!”
