Like many of our customers Mr W (Raymondo) has been kind enough to send us in pictures of his project and finished building. This is alway much appreciated as it is very enjoyable for us to see a build progress but also for other customers to see what they are letting themselves in for when undertaking a self build of a log cabin.
Prior to Delivery
I purchased a Julia Log Cabin from you during august this year and have recently completed it.
I must say that the help I received prior to purchase was second to none. The order process was also second to none as was the delivery. The quality of the cabin is exceptional and I am well pleased.
As you can see I am using the cabin as my home cinema …. and it works very well. I am well pleased.
Constructing the Base
-
- A damp proof membrane is important under any base
-
- Decking boards are used on top of the timber frame
Unpacking the Julia Log Cabin
-
- This is typical of how all our log cabins are packaged.
-
- Mr W has very sensibly put to one side the floor and door parts and other ones he does not immediately recognise for the start of the build
Building the Julia Log Cabin
Fixing the Roof
Outdoor Touches
Flooring and Electrics
-
- As per our recommendations the insulated floor is being added.
-
- Make sure you allow for the natural expansion and contraction of log cabins when installing electrical circuits in your log cabin

Thank you very much Mr W for sending us your pictures and letter, it is very much appreciated, I love your home cinema and am most envious! I hope you enjoy the present we have sent.
