“I am delighted with my new Stian Log cabin. Superb quality and good value. Relatively easy assembly considering that I undertook the whole job on my own. I ordered an extra window so I was a bit concerned with the installation. Fortunately Alex and Richard at Tuin were always available to promptly answer questions and give clear instructions. it was a truly great service. All the other 5 Stars reviews I read do make it justice.”
“When we first got the Stian Log Cabin, it was a bit like playing a tetris puzzle. Thankfully Tuin have everything written down in instructions along with extremely helpful videos and info on their website. The written instructions also set out in pictograms each piece that you will have. The building was relatively easy and it is a lovely solid cabin with windows and doors that fit perfectly. After the first settling period you get to know your cabin well and can set about doing what you want with it. From initially ordering our cabin all the way through to delivery, Tuin made it easy, completed follow ups (where they contacted us) and the delivery team were simply excellent. The Tuin staff were helpful, courteous, respectful and took their time to explain everything, so you never feel rushed. This cabin is a boon to anyone who buys it as it creates a cosy environment that you would not otherwise have that is solid and (if maintained) will last for years and years.”
“I am over the moon with the Stian Cabin. I done my own installation, and was really impressed with the design and simplicity of putting it together which I really I really enjoyed. I have plenty of garden space and was considering at a later stage, of possibly building another cabin to the rear at right angles. Full marks for delivery, quality and service.”
“My Cabin was an absolute pleasure to build! Great workmanship along with great instructions made all the difference and now I have a beautiful building in our garden! Roll on Summertime!”
“I would highly recommend this cabin for the quality, price and service from Tuin. The builder who erected it NR Maintenance were also excellent. Cabin ordered and delivered as planned and with no problems. Took 3 days to complete the build cabin, mainly with 2 people. The instructions and especially video guides on the web site were a big help and made it easy to follow. The cabin is very well made and fits together really well. I had a few queries about damaged timber, painting and insulation and the Tuin team were very helpful and quick to respond. Cabin looks great now its painted and fitted out - only problem is getting the kids out, so the parents can use it!”
“I came across the Tuin website purely by chance whilst looking for a good quality 4x4 log cabin on the internet. Something about the combination of the informative website, the apparent quality of the product, the good reviews and the reasonable price convinced me this was the right firm for me to buy from. We chose the Stian I have no regrets on any score whatsoever. Everything about the online process and subsequent follow-up communication ran like clockwork, and email queries were answered almost immediately even at weekends. Everything was very professional, yet friendly and reassuringly no money was taken until delivery is arranged. Careful delivery to the pavement outside my elevated house was on time and straight forward. All my wife and I, and a couple of neighbours, had to do was unpack the seemingly thousands (literally a couple of hundred?) of pieces and carry them one at a time, in sunshine, rain, sleet and snow, to the back garden. The cabin itself is of a very solid construction, and after a bit of faffing cutting the first foundation boards the body of the cabin went up quickly with the help of my eldest son. One person could do it but two is far more preferable. The joint system on the 58mm logs is very neat and clever, and fitted together perfectly - all you have to do is bang them down with a mallet. We chose an additional window and found the instructions for fitting this confusing but eventually fathomed it out. Everything else is fairly self explanatory and the cabin went up over two days, four including the free roof shingles which are excellent and add a real classy feel to the already good quality construction. Less satisfying in my opinion was the flooring, and I would suggest to Tuin that they supply full lengths of floor joist to fit the size of cabin purchased rather than several small pieces that require joining together. All in all, however, this is a fantastic product for the money, and creates a quality additional room rather than just more space. If you are reasonably fit and competent with basic joinery tools, I would recommend building it yourself, with a little help at times - especially as it begins to grow. It is really satisfying. I have insulated the under floor space between the joists, had extra security and electrics fitted professionally, and stained/protected it with 3 coats of quality preservative (Sikkens) on the outside. I have also added mini guttering and a water butt. Now two months later everyone who sees it thinks it looks very impressive and, indeed, beautiful. It is the perfect size for a home gym. If you are looking for a solid, well constructed and easy to build cabin from a reliable and friendly company, you really need look no further.”
