This consists of a pressure treated timber frame, covered with damp proof membrane & mounted on stilts. These are positioned on concrete block pads, set in a meter grid formation and cemented in place to avoid lateral or vertical movement. A standard height step, the width of the door (or the opening of the veranda) and a cover up around the base are included. If located on a flat surface, the building will be raised approximately 20cm off the ground. If located on a slope, it may be raised higher, which can increase the cost.

This consists of a solid concrete pad, including rebar, a radon barrier below and a damp proof course of torch on felt on top. Please note, a step at the door is not included with this foundation, but can be supplied at additional cost. The price for the concrete pad may vary depending on location, degree of slope (if any) and ease of access to the site.

Only advisable for storage units, not suitable for residential log cabins or home offices. Buildings with uninsulated walls are inefficient to heat and are not protected by pressure treated cladding, decreasing the longevity of the building. This results in increased heating & maintenance costs over the lifespan of the building. Uninsulated walls get only two years structural warranty.

External insulation consists of 100mm insulation + breathable damp proof membrane + 25mm ventilated facade + 19mm pressure treated ship-lap cladding. This the highest standard option, the structural wall is never exposed to the elements as the pressure treated cladding protects the building, increasing longevity and lowering maintenance costs. This comes with a ten-year structural warranty.

For cabins with a veranda, steel cladding covers the back and sides, shiplap is used on the front because of the overhang. Available in a variety of colours.
