Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper installation begins with a level, solid base such as concrete, paving slabs, or a pressure-treated timber frame. Because the structure is modular, plan your desired window and door configuration before beginning construction to ensure you do not have to disassemble panels later.
Care instructions include:
- Initial Treatment: The building arrives dip-treated with a wax-enhanced preservative, but this only lasts 12 months.
- Annual Maintenance: Apply a high-quality garden wood preserver or oil-based stain every year to prevent water ingress and timber degradation.
- Clear Debris: Regularly clear leaves and debris from the roof felt and gutter areas to prevent moisture buildup.
- Check Fittings: Tighten screws and hardware once per season to compensate for natural timber expansion and contraction.
