FAQs

Is roofing felt included with the Dorset 2 log cabin?

No, roofing felt is not included as standard. It is available as an optional extra and can be purchased separately. Please contact us for pricing information.

What is the recommended base for the log cabin?

A solid, level, and damp-proof base is recommended, such as a concrete slab or paved area. This ensures the stability and longevity of the log cabin.

Can I use this log cabin during winter?

Yes, the 34mm timber and double glazing provide good insulation, making it suitable for year-round use with minimal heating.

What are the dimensions of the cabin?

The wall dimensions are 300cm x 390cm, providing a floor area of 11.24m². The ridge height is 239.4cm, and the wall height is 210.9cm.

Does the cabin come painted or treated?

The cabin is typically supplied as unfinished timber. It is essential to treat the exterior with a suitable wood preservative and/or stain to protect it from the elements.

What tools will I need for assembly?

Basic DIY tools such as a hammer, saw (if any adjustments are needed), spirit level, measuring tape, screwdriver set, and possibly a drill will be required.

How long does assembly typically take?

Assembly time can vary depending on your DIY experience and whether you have assistance. For those with reasonable DIY skills and help, it can often be assembled in a weekend.

Troubleshooting

Log sections do not fit together tightly.

Ensure all protective packaging is removed from the log grooves. Check for any debris lodged in the grooves. If a slight gap persists, it can often be sealed during the exterior treatment process. Ensure you are following the correct order of assembly for the log sections.

Door or windows are stiff to open/close.

Check for any obstructions or debris around the frame. Timber can expand or contract with humidity; try adjusting the hinges if applicable or allow a few days for the wood to acclimatize. Ensure the frame has not been warped during assembly.

Condensation forming on the inside of the windows.

This can occur due to high humidity inside the cabin. Ensure adequate ventilation by using the tilt-and-turn window or opening the door periodically. Avoid drying laundry inside the cabin.

Water ingress after rain.

Inspect the roof for any damage or gaps, especially around the edges. Ensure that roofing felt (if purchased separately) is correctly installed. Check the seals around windows and doors, and the junction where walls meet the base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Assembly requires basic DIY tools and skills. Ensure you have a level base prepared before starting. The cabin is delivered with all necessary fixtures and comprehensive instructions. It is recommended to have at least two people for assembly, particularly when lifting wall sections.

Compatibility: This log cabin is a standalone structure. Compatibility primarily relates to site preparation and local regulations. Always check local planning permissions for garden buildings.

Care: To maintain the timber, it is recommended to treat the exterior with a suitable wood preservative and/or stain annually to protect against weather damage and UV rays. Regularly check the seals around windows and doors for any signs of wear. Clean the windows with a standard glass cleaner. Ensure the roof is clear of debris to prevent water pooling.
