The Meet Customer Demand Bespoke Log Cabins Dealer Guide has been created to assist buyers when making an informed choice when purchasing a log cabin for their garden or property. The guide gives an overview of features and benefits when making this selection process easier.
Log cabins are typically constructed by contractors or independent builders who will utilize the log cabin package to craft an aesthetic and comfortable home. As such, it’s crucial that when purchasing logs and timbers for construction your contractor provides comprehensive construction drawings or manual.
Check whether the supplier you choose quotes the size of a log building using internal measurements, external dimensions with roof overhang or total floor area including porches and verandas as this will impact its volume significantly and should be factored into your budget should you opt for a larger model.
Assure the log cabin you purchase features a durable slate roof for enhanced appearance and longevity. With various blends and textures to choose from, slate can either complement natural wood timbers or stand out against them with stunning contrast for a stunning statement look.
As a best practice, it is ideal to situate the cabin base a minimum of 18 inches away from boundary fences and walls in order to allow air circulation freely, prevent moisture build-up that could result in mold or damp, and avoid mold formation that could result in rot or damp. Keep in mind that most log cabins arrive untreated; so they should be treated right after installation to prevent premature deterioration.
