“Had been researching log cabins for a while but was really disappointed by the quality and then someone recommended Tuin and I'm so glad they did! It's great quality, straightforward to build but ideally needs a competent DIY'er. Our biggest worry was making sure the base was level as we build it on our garden which is on a slope so opted for a cement base but have been told the plastic driveway grids you snap together would be sufficient. I would advise getting good quality paint, as recommended by Tuin, as cheaper paint will just peel off in a few years. It keeps the heat really well if the sun shines on it and is still fine even in colder weather. We had electrics fitted and wifi and our teenager loves it! Fitted composite decking all around which gives it the surround we feel it needs. I can wholeheartedly recommend Tuin. The company is run very efficiently too, no delays in delivery, communication was clear and delivery time almost by the hour, really can't fault them.”
“Thank you Tuin, we are delighted with our Daisy cabin. From the point of order the team have been really helpful in answering all our questions, and there were a few! The social distance delivery driver was lovely and kept us informed of delivery day and time. The cabin itself was fairly easy to build, having never done something like this before we are very happy with the results. Good quality wood, and great value for money. Thank you.”
“After a pleasurable and easy ordering process, delivery day came. Again, easy and painless. Driver dropped the pallet on the drive and that was that! Bless him, he did have to park in town and drive his fork lift to the house,, which caused a few raised eyebrows! Now to installation. Yet again, very easy and painless. Took me 3 days in total. Day 1 walls, day 2 roof and day 3 flooring. The instructions that came were basic but there is so much info on the blogs on here that there was never a moment I got stuck. A brief review but all I can say is im very happy with the cabin and would recommend Tuin to anybody”
“Loving our Daisy cabin. It was delivered on time which is fantastic considering what's going on just now. It was really easy and quick to build. The hardest part was making sure the ground was level and prepared properly. Its going to be my workspace so I went for the thickest wood on the floor due to having heavy equipment, and I'm are really happy with it. I would definitely recommend Tuin and the Daisy Cabin.”
“I found the whole process from Tuin easy and very straight forward. The delivery driver was very helpful and managed to put the pallet exactly where I needed it. The cabin itself really is very good,and I had the cabin assembled and the tongue and groove roof on in a day. It's a very straightforward two man assembly, (two man only really because some of the longer pieces you need an extra pair of hands) and well within the competence level of most people. I installed my cabin on a timber base using Ground Screw Anchors that enabled me to keep the cabin off the ground (good for damp) and also meant I didn't have to lay a load of concrete (good for the environment) and I won't have a big lump of concrete to knock out in 15-20 years time (good for me!). They were also reasonably priced, costing around 300, which I believe is comparable to a concrete base. I would recommend the ground screw anchors, they were very easy to install. I am using my cabin as a home office and have insulated with 100mm celotex in the floor and roof, I have decided not to insulate the walls as I like the look of the timber inside and it would also mean I lose quite a bit of floor area. My thinking is that I will see how cold it is over the winter and if additional insulation is needed I will put it on the outside and re-clad in weatherboarding. I'll try and add some photos if possible.”
“Great service.The customer sv team were always very responsive and helpful.Easy to order from a very comprehensive website. Delivery was spot on ..driver very helpful. Built it myself...very 3ady but took me 2/3 days. Chose immersion treatment which was very good. One slight piece damaged which Ivrepaired myself. Overall 10 out 10. Plus the pricing is spot on.”
“I am very pleased with the cabin, it's a good solid construction. We had a professional fitter build this for us and he was also impressed at the quality of it as well. I was, unfortunately, let down by customer service, even though I have sent a few emails, I'm still waiting for a piece of trim after two weeks.”
“Having been looking for a log cabin for a home office in my garden for some time, I opted for the Daisy by Tuin. The product has been very well reviewed, and with the information provided on the Tuin site I was comfortable with my choice. The offer price, along with free roof shingles, was the final decider. As has been stated by others, the instructions with the cabin were not that detailed, but were enough and with enough information via the Tuin website, the construction was a fairly straightforward process. I have been using the cabin for a couple of weeks and I am absolutely delighted with it. For anyone who is thinking to purchase I would make the following observations: 1) take your time to get the foundation beam right. Do it once, check it a couple of times. It makes everything else some much simpler. 2) Construction really is quite straightforward, with the cabin going up (excluding roof boards) in 1 day. 3) Spend a little bit more time and money to insulate under the floor and the roof. 4) The shingles are relatively straightforward to put in place, but would recommend putting some felt underneath. 5) if you have enough funds, consider an additional window. I added one and it made a lot of difference to the natural light. 6) Consider some sealant. with the floating floor and a few other things, there may be some small draughts which are noticeable with the current changing weather. 7) Use the Tuin online support. It's great. 8) sit back and admire your work. The cabin is beautifully constructed and a great investment. Thanks Tuin.”
