Shire Leygrove Left Hand Corner Log Cabin 9 x 14 – Our first thoughts
Let’s get the size thing out of the way first. This is a big building. Once you enter you’ll appreciate the spacious interior too. And with the windows and the frankly quite gorgeous double doors you have plenty of light in the building too.
All that glazing has been created using toughened glass as well, so you have a set up that is made for longevity and safety. The door and the windows not only benefit from that toughened glass, they also have special draft seals too, so you get plenty of protection and comfort in the winter.
Overall, it is a very attractive building with some excellent features in it.
Shire Leygrove Left Hand Corner Log Cabin 9 x 14: Some questions you may have
Can I build it myself? We recommend that you not only have two people to build it, but also that you ensure you have good tools and a good few hours. This is a high quality building, and one that demands a committed approach to the build. It may be a good idea to consider the services of professionals.
And the groundwork? If you have a perfectly flat concrete surface that matches the footprint of the building, that’s the best possible surface to lay the building on. You can try other set ups, but you would need to seek guidance from the manufacturer.
Is the floor durable? I want to have heavy furniture in it? Yes it’s very strong. You’re looking at a 12mm floor that can take anything you throw at it. What’s more, the floor is hoisted on pressure treated floor bearers. These keep water out, pure and simple, and prevent rot from becoming an issue.
