Troubleshooting
Wood appears to be swelling or shrinking.
This is natural timber movement due to changes in humidity. Ensure proper ventilation and regular wood treatment. Minor gaps can be filled with sealant if necessary.
Condensation forming inside the cabin.
Increase ventilation by opening windows more frequently or considering additional vents. Ensure the structure is not airtight. Regular use of the space can also help.
Difficulty closing doors or windows.
Check the cabin's base for levelness, as settling can cause misalignment. Wood expansion due to moisture can also be a cause; check if treatment is needed or if the wood is damp.
Water ingress through the roof or walls.
Inspect the tongue and groove joints and sealing. Reapply sealant if necessary. Check if additional roofing felt or shingles are required for better waterproofing.

- Cleaning: Clean windows and timber surfaces periodically with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Ventilation: Ensure windows are opened regularly to maintain airflow and prevent condensation build-up.
- Guttering: Consider installing guttering to manage rainwater runoff effectively.
