Log Cabins FAQ
What are the most common uses for a standard log cabin?
Our log cabins are incredibly versatile. They are most commonly used as summer houses, home hobby rooms, extra storage spaces, or kids' playrooms. Their natural wood aesthetic makes them a beautiful addition to any garden landscape.
What kind of base do I need for my garden log cabin?
A flat and level foundation is essential. For standard log cabins, we recommend a concrete base, paving slabs, or a heavy-duty timber frame. A solid base ensures the longevity of the structure and prevents issues with door and window alignment.
Are windows and doors included in the cabin kit?
Yes, all our Log Cabins are supplied as complete kits. This includes the wall logs, floorboards, roof boards, and all necessary windows and doors with their respective hardware and locks.
How do I protect my cabin from the weather?
To ensure your cabin lasts for years, it should be treated with a high-quality wood preservative or paint immediately after assembly. At Timber Lodge 365, we recommend regular maintenance every 2-3 years to keep the timber protected from moisture and UV rays.
Can I assemble the log cabin myself?
Our cabins come with detailed instructions and are designed for straightforward assembly. However, if you prefer a professional touch, we offer expert installation services across Ireland to ensure your cabin is built perfectly and securely.
