“This log cabin was a replacement for a summer house, which was passed its prime. The old summer house was built on a raised timber frame. so one reason I picked this log cabin was that it had the same foot print. Order was placed online which was a simple process, lots of help on the web site. This gave us time to remove the old summer house and stack down the bottom of the garden, lockdown so the dump was closed. Delivery was first class, the driver had to park at the end of my road and bring the cabin up by forklift. I have low overhead telephone cables at the front which were cleared with inches to spare to drop the load right where I wanted. The next job was to transport the load to the back via a footpath hardest part of the build. My wife and I took no time at all to build the walls with the help of a rubber mallet. Both 73 years old. Needed help from a neighbour to lift the main roof beams in placed. Only time I contacted Tuin was because I felt the timber for the side facia and support were too small, not the size shown on the video. Because of lockdown I had to use email this was a slow process, so I just went out and bought the timber I wanted to speed up the build. After I bought the timber I did get an offer to supply what I wanted, just a problem with lockdown. First time I have fitted shingles, they are fantastic, number of tiles was very close I felt that one more was needed. Painted the cabin with Sadolin Superdec after Sadolin protector, results look good, only time will tell. Very please with the end results.”
“Received my cabin within 2 weeks. Had a few phonecards from Holland to keep me updated on delivery dates and times. Received the cabin all sealed a rain proof. Was put on the drive near window giving us space to park. The driver called prior to delivery. Managed to get the cabin up in a few hours and we'll happy with it. The whole process from buying to Receiving the log cabin was pretty good. Even ordered a bigger one so thankyou.”
“I've had this cabin for over a year now and I am absolutely thrilled with it. Easy to assemble with 2 people. Sturdy, quality product. Would highly recommend using Tuin. The delivery came as scheduled, packaged well no damaged or missing parts. Will definitely use Tuin for all future garden builds.”
“Very pleased with our Britt cabin, although not yet fully erected. Super quality. Not for an inexperienced DIYer and needs two pretty strong people (for the Britt). Instructions are diabolical but that's been mentioned by many. Probably a smaller cabin would be easier to work out.”
“This is the second log cabin I have ordered from Tuin , the first being the Frodo log cabin which I built last year . Both cabins are well designed and easy to install with little or no experience. Top quality wood , supplied with ample fittings and roof shingles . I love both of these cabins and have recommended to family and friends, my brother ordered the Emiel cabin and is pleased with that too . Value for money and a fine addition to any garden”
