Shire Tilney Log Cabin - Brown

No, the Shire Tilney Log Cabin is supplied untreated. It is essential to treat all exterior surfaces with a quality preservative immediately after installation to protect the timber and maintain the warranty.

A level and solid base is recommended, such as concrete slabs, a concrete pad, or a purpose-built timber foundation. This ensures stability and prevents moisture from entering the base of the cabin.

It is generally recommended to reapply preservative treatment annually, or as specified by the preservative manufacturer, to ensure continued protection against the elements.

The cabin is designed with pre-determined window and door positions. Modifications to their placement are not part of the standard assembly and may affect structural integrity.

Please refer to the product images and detailed specifications for precise dimensions, including height, width, depth, and door/window sizes.
