Troubleshooting
Log panels do not fit together correctly
Check for any debris in the grooves or on the edges of the logs. Ensure you are assembling in the correct order as per the instructions. Minor adjustments might be needed, but avoid forcing pieces together.
Water ingress or leaks
Inspect the roof for any gaps or damage. Ensure the roof felt (if applicable) is correctly installed and sealed. Check the seals around the doors and window. Reapply sealant or treatment as needed.
Doors or window are stiff to open/close
Check for any obstructions or warping. Adjust hinges if necessary. Ensure the surrounding timber has not swollen due to moisture. Apply a silicone lubricant to moving parts.
Uneven flooring
This usually indicates an unstable or uneven base. The cabin will need to be carefully dismantled and reassembled on a properly prepared level base.
