What kind of timber is used for the walls?

The walls are constructed from 44mm thick, high-grade, responsibly sourced Scandinavian timber.

How is the cabin protected from ground moisture?

What is the color of the uPVC doors and windows?

Troubleshooting

Cabin logs do not fit tightly.

Ensure the foundation is perfectly level and that logs are oriented correctly according to the instructions. Check for any debris in the notching system.

Difficulty assembling doors or windows.

Verify that the wall logs around the openings are correctly aligned and secured. Refer to the specific installation video for door and window fitting.

Water pooling on the roof or near walls.

Ensure the gutter edge drip plate is clear of leaves and debris. Check that the roof is correctly sealed and that there are no gaps in the log construction.

Condensation inside the cabin.

Increase ventilation by opening windows periodically or consider installing a small vent. Ensure no moisture sources are trapped within the building.
