Troubleshooting
Hutch wobbles after assembly
Ensure all screws and bolts are tightened securely. Check that the hutch is placed on a flat, even surface.
Water pooling around the base
The hutch is designed to be elevated. Ensure it is placed on solid ground and not in an area prone to flooding. If the ground is uneven, consider placing it on pavers.
Wood shows signs of weathering quickly
While the wood has a water-resistant coating, reapply a pet-safe sealant annually or as needed to maintain protection, especially in harsh weather conditions.
Wire mesh appears loose
Check and tighten any fasteners securing the wire mesh. Ensure there are no gaps that could compromise security.
