Perfect for hubby’s man cave. Was delivered when they said it would be, the driver was lovely and helpful. The main structure was up in a day .... so easy if you watch the videos it gives you a great insight into how to do it really pleased with the quality ease of section and the service. Have recommended to friends and they are looking to buy theirs from Tuin too. Thank you a great product .

Great product! Great service!
Internet video was a great help we watched it a few times.
We did concrete footings as we didn’t want a concrete floor. We laid wider timber on the bottom before we constructed it then we hung joists from that and did 18mm ply.
Over 1 weekend my partner and myself erected the complete cabin then put the shingles on the next weekend after having firstly wood preservative the roof due to the weather during the week.
It’s beeping used as a workshop now and we are just so happy with how it went & it looks great in the garden.
We will email some photos direct to Tuin.

Brilliant quality, from delivery to creation, the Klass has given us a lovely area to relax.
The Build; You will be required to have some skill to be able to put the lodge together. We placed ours on a concrete base using an SDS drill to fix the base plate. Remember to put your DPM in to reduce rot over time.
Remember to keep checking the lodge is square as it slots together.
In 6 hours I had the structure together on my own, with an additional 3hours all the roof slates were together.
To complete the roof shingles took in total a further 4-6hours.
Water proof; all edges were sealed with sealant and expanding foam.
The videos were really helpful to check direction of starting row shingles.
For the front edgeing I recomend having a hook over to keep all the tiles down and keep water out. I used fascier boarding and it looks he part.
Treating the wood with sealing product and then staining will help. I will be avoiding painting the lodge as I do not want moisture to be caught inside the lodge. Stain will allow any moisture to pass through the wood.
I am really happy and will be looking forward to completing the interior and around the lodges to enjoy over the winter and for years to come.

Brilliant Log Cabin- bought in December (Christmas) and was delivered very quickly. Driver very helpful and skilled in positioning it on the drive. Was left there until May when I had layed the slab Paving Base. Now it has been built and flooring put in and all electrics. Very pleased with product and have started " shed envy" with neighbours. 5 star product.

We are quite pleased with the cabin. A few split planks, but nothing too bad, and we have found the online instructions really useful. The ones we received with the cabin we found far too generic and vague! The blogs re insulation/tiling have been invaluable and helped us alot.
We are yet to put the flooring in, and paint it - it is proving to take somewhat longer to do than anticipated, but we are looking forward to using it in the near future!
