Troubleshooting

Wood appears to be warping or cracking

This can occur if the wood has not been adequately treated with a wood preservative immediately after assembly, or due to extreme weather fluctuations. Ensure all surfaces are treated and reapply preservative as needed.

Difficulty interlocking logs during assembly

Ensure the logs are clean and free from debris. Minor adjustments might be needed; check the instructions for specific guidance on log fitting.

Door or window sticks or is difficult to open/close

Check that the cabin is on a level base and that the logs have not shifted. The piano-style hinge may require slight adjustment, or ensure the frame is not obstructed.

Water ingress through the roof or walls

Verify that the tongue and groove boards are correctly fitted and sealed. Ensure the roof felt is correctly installed and in good condition. Check for any gaps and seal them appropriately with wood filler or sealant.
