FAQs
Does the Avesbury Log Cabin come pre-assembled?
No, the Avesbury Log Cabin is supplied as individual log boards and requires assembly according to the provided instructions. All necessary fixings are included.
What kind of base do I need for this log cabin?
You will need a solid, flat, and level base. This could be concrete, paving slabs, or a timber foundation. Ensure it is stable and slightly larger than the cabin footprint.
How soon should I treat the wood after assembly?
It is highly recommended to paint or stain the cabin immediately after assembly, as it is supplied untreated and vulnerable to weather damage.
Can I change the location of the door and windows?
Yes, the Avesbury Log Cabin features interchangeable door and window positions, allowing you to customize the layout during assembly.
What are the internal dimensions?
Internal dimensions may differ slightly from external due to the log board crossover. Please refer to the plan drawing provided with the product for accurate metric dimensions.
What is included in the package?
The package includes all fixings, mineral roof felt, and detailed assembly instructions. The cabin consists of 19 mm interlocking logs, a tongue and groove floor and roof, and 4 mm toughened glass for the windows.
Is the floor pressure-treated?
Yes, the floor joists are pressure-treated to enhance their resistance to rot and decay, contributing to the longevity of the cabin's base structure.
Troubleshooting
Log boards do not fit together snugly.
Ensure the base is perfectly level. Check for any debris in the grooves or on the edges of the logs. Gently tap boards into place with a rubber mallet if needed.
Door or window does not close properly.
Check if the cabin structure is square and level. Minor adjustments to the frame or hinges may be necessary. Ensure no obstructions are present.
Water ingress after rain.
Verify that the roof felt has been correctly installed and sealed. Check that all log joints are tight and that any gaps have been filled with appropriate sealant. Ensure the base provides adequate drainage.
Wood appears to be warping or cracking.
This can occur with untreated timber exposed to fluctuating moisture. Ensure the cabin has been treated with a suitable preservative and reapply as needed. Avoid direct prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight or constant dampness if possible.
