Can I paint the summerhouse?

Yes, the summerhouse is pre-treated with a honey brown basecoat and is ready to be painted or stained.

What type of base is recommended?

A level base made of concrete slabs or a timber frame is recommended to ensure stability and prevent moisture damage.

How do I maintain the roof?

Regularly inspect the roofing felt for any damage or wear. Clean off any debris and ensure proper drainage.

Is the wood treated against rot?

The wood is pressure-treated with a honey brown basecoat, but it is recommended to apply additional paint or stain for enhanced weather resistance.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty assembling the doors.

Double-check the instructions for correct hinge placement and alignment. Ensure the frame is square before attaching the doors. If needed, slightly adjust the door hinges.

Water leaks through the roof.

Ensure the roofing felt is correctly installed and overlaps as directed. Check for any tears or damage to the felt and repair or replace as needed. Seal any gaps around the edges of the roof.
