Product Information

And it's not just the adults who can enjoy the many benefits of BillyOh log cabins. A few years ago we introduced our first log cabin playhouses into our catalogue, and they've proved immensely popular in that time. Log cabin playhouses offer a host of features that our standard playhouses don't, such as the option of window shutters and flower boxes, multiple storeys and a classy, modern look. Treat your little one to their dream garden den with a log cabin playhouse from us - perfect for naptime and sleepovers! Log Cabin Construction Whether it's for use as an outdoor home office or just some extra personal space, a garden cabin represents the perfect space to dedicate to work, a hobby, or a passion. And, with garden offices with wide-opening double doors on offer, you can make your place of work somewhere you look forward to going to. Guarantee Furthermore, garden cabins can be used for garden storage. For instance, as bike sheds, a wooden garage, a garden furniture storage or as a garage shed combination. With this in mind, most of our summer houses and log cabin sheds come with double doors. Unlike single doors, having double doors makes for complete convenience when wanting to manoeuvre your belongings in and out of the garden storage. Alternatively, why not make the decision to turn a log cabin shed into a potting shed or a garden workshop? These large buildings available, some even with additional headroom, could make for the ideal place to house your plants or DIY tools. BillyOh Log Cabin Summerhouses

The Tianna is incredibly versatile, thanks to a side store that allows it to be used for both storage and relaxation. Modern, gently sloping pent roofs (flat roofs) allow for excellent runoff and create a stylish cabin design that is sure to look great in any garden.Save 24% on this garden room here Conclusion – What I thought of the BillyOh Kent log cabin garden office Taking care of your structure is essential in ensuring its longevity. One of the most important ways of maintaining your building is by applying wood treatment. This could be oil-based, water-based, or solvent and spirit-based. Or it can be achieved through dip or pressure treatment. Treating the timber can also help protect against pests and rot. Each form of treatment has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Here at Garden Buildings Direct, we stand by the quality and timelessness of all our garden cabins. That’s why our log cabins come with the BillyOh 10-year guarantee against rot, decay, and insect infestation. If you are unsure whether you would be able to complete this by yourself then you always have the option of hiring someone to do it for you. (BillyOh do not offer this service) Just beware it could take someone up to two weeks to complete by themselves, so factor this into your costs. I constructed mine, by myself in about 7 full days. (including the base and with intermittent bad weather) The main structure of the building can be completed within 2-3 days. Then finishing and painting can take 2-3 more. Additional BillyOh resources Finding the right building for your needs is the first step in the process. What will the garden building be used for? For us, we wanted an additional work space that was separate from the rest of the house. A place we could go for some peace and quiet away from the children, so we could focus on our work. As we are both self employed and work from home 90% of the time this was an important factor for us. We also wanted a small space for a home gym. Nothing extravagant, just a treadmill, bike and maybe some weights.With the space on offer in the Pro Pent, there really are thousands of uses out there. Storage is easy and customisable, with easy installation for vertical storage such as shelves. Shelves make it easy to keep the floor from becoming cluttered. This frees up more space and can allow you to store larger items, including lawnmowers or BBQs - or even give you the space for a workbench. Or, install a bit of insulation and you could even use the Pro Pent as a home office! A Range of Size Options

Water-based treatments - This requires no primer and can be applied directly onto wood, after first removing any grease, wax or dirt from your cabin’s exterior. This treatment should be applied every year.Or, if you want some extra storage, they’re the perfect solution for a lawnmower or boxes you’re keeping in the loft. Log cabin storage can go a long way to reorganising your life. And adding shelves can let it become an inspiring art studio or somewhere to create a reading nook. All Kinds of Uses Our BillyOh garden cabins are build using high-quality materials at every point of construction. Our wide-opening windows which offer you glorious views of your garden are made from safety-conscious SAN and can even be upgraded to double-glazed toughened glass. At Garden Buildings Direct, we don't offer installation services simply because our BillyOh buildings are so easy to put together! Measured and pre-cut by our experts, your log cabin shed can be easily assembled in a matter of hours with some basic tools and a friend. Forbuilding installation, we do recommend a solid base, though. So whether you opt for a timber sub-floor, gravel, or aconcrete base, we advise that you have yourbase ready for delivery. Planning Permission

If the frames are a little tight you can place a piece of wood on top of the frame and give it a bash. Just be careful not to damage the frame. I found one of the frames fit nicely and the other was a little bit tight. Our garden log cabins represent the perfect space to use as a garden office. With our cabin summerhouses, you'll find plenty of space to suit your needs, whether it's to build a garden studio or an outdoor home office. So for an economical option that doesn't require planning permission and an extension to your house, the BillyOh Dorset represents the perfect choice. Tongue & Groove Cladding Arguably our most popular style of summerhouse, the panoramic views offered by the large double glazed windows at the front of the building are one of it's key features. Log Cabin Summerhouses I upgraded to the double-glazing windows and doors which come pre-installed into their frames. If you buy the single glazing then you will need some sealant to fit the glass.

Hard-Wearing Log Cabin Sheds

I have painted my log cabin with a Ronseal Fence life plus Midnight blue Matt Fence & shed Treatment. It should give 5 years worth of protection. One 5L tub of paint should be enough to cover the whole building. It required about 4 coats to get a good finish.
