With the roof boards all in place I added tarpaulin as a temporary waterproof solution. This would give me time to complete the windows and doors before adding the felt. Fitting the windows and doors

No matter what form of treatment you choose for your log cabin, you can be sure of long-lasting quality. That's why we can offer our BillyOh 10-year guarantee against rot, decay, and insect infestation on our log cabins. And, if you select pressure treatment, we ensure that protection will extend to 15 years. Fitting the hinges, handles and casement stays are all explained in detail in a separate document. Fitting can be a little fiddly but if you take your time and be precise there shouldn’t be any issues. It took me half a day to fit two windows and two doors. Make sure the wood machinist is cutting the wood correctly. All the lengths were fine on my building but there were a few pieces where the notches weren’t quite wide enough. This made slotting them together difficult and I had to widen a few pieces myself with a hand saw. This added time to the build. The Kent’s wide-opening windows offer you loads of natural light in your new home office as well as glorious views of your garden. This garden cabin’s windows are made from safety-conscious SAN and can even be upgraded to double-glazed toughened glass. The timber used for the Kent log cabin’s cladding is also high-quality and European-sourced. OptionsThis flatter style of roof, known as a pent roof, offers a more modern and contemporary silhouette. The flat roofs of log cabins have a shaded roof overhang and great runoff. A pent log cabin like the Tianna is a pent tongue & groove wooden building with a side store. So you can get the storage to house the lawn mower without compromising on spaciousness and relaxation. Apex and Reverse Apex Cabins Our BillyOh garden cabins come with a 10-year guarantee against rot. With golden spray wood treatment that will protect your BillyOh building until it's delivered, you can opt to either treat your building yourself or choose pressure treatment, which is more comprehensive than dip or oil-based treatment and longer-lasting. Planning Permission You can see below I had to rip some of the joists to fit over the previous solid patio base. I’ve also added some joist bridges for additional strength and stability. Styrene Acrylonitrile (SAN) glazing is a high-strength rigid plastic glazing that’s UV-stable and shatter resistant. Aesthetically pleasing and safe to handle it comes at an attractive price point.

Solvent/spirit-based treatments - This is an effective form of treatment that involves a gentle application to ensure it is smooth with an even coating. It is recommended to apply this every three or so years. Our log cabin sheds and workshops also feature choices from pent and apex to reverse apex roofs. So whether you want a pent roof model for a contemporary look or an apex roof for a more traditional cabin shed, you’ll find it all here.

Oil-based treatment - The UV protection ensures that this is a long-lasting treatment type, only requiring retouching every five or so years. The treatment soaks into the timber, providing strong weather protection. I have a fair bit of experience constructing garden buildings but this was something completely new to me. The construction style was very difference from what I was used to in the past. Having said that, this build was relatively straight forward. If you follow the instructions carefully there isn’t much that can go wrong. I would certainly say that most people out there can build this garden office. Previous experience using power tools is a bonus but not essential. Build time
