What kind of base is recommended for the log cabin?

Troubleshooting
Cabin feels drafty or has small gaps
Ensure all logs are fully interlocked. Small gaps can sometimes occur and may need to be sealed with a suitable sealant after the wood has been treated. Check that the structure is square and plumb.
Wood shows signs of swelling or sticking
This can occur due to changes in humidity. Ensure adequate ventilation within the cabin. If doors or windows are sticking, check they are properly aligned and consider lightly sanding the edges where they meet the frame.
Water pooling around the base
Ensure the base is level and has adequate drainage. Check that the ground slopes away from the cabin. The pressure-treated floor joists offer protection, but prolonged waterlogging should be avoided.
Treatment finish is peeling or looking worn
This indicates the need for re-treatment. Clean the affected areas, ensure the wood is dry, and reapply your chosen preservative, paint, or stain according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Shire Edgefield Log Cabin is designed for straightforward DIY assembly with clear, step-by-step instructions provided. Ensure you have a level and stable base, such as concrete slabs or a paved area, before starting construction. Assembly is typically easier with two people. Optional professional installation services are available in many regions.
Compatibility: This cabin is designed to fit into most garden spaces. The interchangeable door and window positions allow for customization to best suit your garden's layout and access points. Ensure sufficient clearance around the cabin for assembly and future maintenance.
Care: The cabin is supplied untreated. It is crucial to apply a suitable wood preservative and exterior paint or stain immediately after assembly to protect the timber from rot, insect infestation, and weathering. Reapply treatment every 2-3 years, or as recommended by the preservative manufacturer, to maintain its condition and appearance. Regularly check for any debris on the roof and clear any blockages in the gutters (if fitted) to prevent water damage.
