Notes: Our estimated lead times are for the delivery of the product only. If you add an assembly service to your order, this will extend the lead times. If you purchase the assembly service prior to the assembly of your garden building, we will need a base which is flat and level to a sufficient size. Grass, soil or gravel are not sufficient as they will move with the weight of a building. To ensure that you have a suitable base in situ, we will contact you to check this and once this has passed, we will contact you to book the delivery and assembly service. Some images may show extra painting or decoration which is not included in the price. When siting, allowance should be made for the roof overhang and for access around the outside during construction and subsequent treatment.
