Are these built in the UK? Would it be possible to have a custom kit constructed? Thanks Mark

A. The fascia board should be attached to the gable fascia and into the ends of the roof boards. There is a diamond shaped piece of wood that fits over the join.

A. Only the floor joists are pressure treated. All other timber will require a treatment after installation.

Q. Do you offer insulation tomake the cabin all year use?

Q. HI CAN YOU TELL MEIF A VERRANDA IS AVAILABLE FOR DERBY LOG CABIN.

A. No, these kits do not have the roofing felt as standard. Some form of felt will need to be bought in order to complete the installation

Q. Is there any insulation in the floor or roof with this cabin? If not can you suggest an alternative that does?

A. There are no insulation options for this cabin "off the shelf" but it is simple to insulate the roof by placing celotex sheets on the supplied roof boards covering this with sheets of plywood before applying either roofing felt or shingles.

Q. Hi On the Devon 3x4 description it states. "Note - Items required to complete the construction include screws and nails to fix roof boards and bitumen shingles." What type/Size should be used. Also are you able to line the inside walls with plaster board? Thanks Si

A. A base that is 4m x 4m will be sufficient. The roof overhangs the walls by approx 200mm

Is it possible to make a cellar first, on which the Lincoln then is placed? How long do we have a warranty on the house(s)? And what is includes into this warranty? How many times do we have to treat the wood from the outside and with what? Regards Jean.

A. None of the services are laid in the cabin. It is best to surface mount and cover.

A. I would recomend no less than a 44mm log for use 12 months of the year and preferably the 68mm. With these you should get away with insulating just the roof and floor, particularly as they come with double glazing as standard.

Q. We have just ordered a Plymouth (5meter wide by 4 meter deep) and would like to know the following: 1) What size concrete base should be built? 2) Can / should the floor or ceiling be insulated for winter use? 3) It states that screws and nails will be needed- what sizes will I need? 4) Any other significant tips you can provide? Regards Simon

A. The base area required is 4.84 x 3.84 m. Insulation - suggest you lay insulation between the floor bearers before the floor boards are fixed. See how you get on and if need be retro fit some further insulation in the ceiling. Nails - 2" galvanised are appropriate.

Q. Hi, Just bought a Pro 4 climbing frame and was looking on the site for log cabins. The Plymouth 5x4 looks like the thing I want, however I may need the roof pitch increasing and also instead of double windows at the front could they be replaced with an up and over or roller type garage door? I presume the front face as per the image is 5m long and depth is 4m? What size foundation base dimensions should I build for it? Thanks

A. The kits come as per the spec with little option for customising from source - sorry. We always state the width first in our dimensions, therefor ein this case, as you suggest, the width is 5m and the depth 4m. The base size required for the Plymouth 5x4 is 4840x 3840mm

Q. Why does the assembly instructions say the wood is 7cm 70mm thick but your description is 60mm. How long between ordering and the cabine being delivered. Thank you
