Why is a good base important?.
Having a hard time deciding on a final colour?
Luckily there is a massive variety available.
We advise customers to use a high quality exterior wood
treatment designed for untreated whitewood.
All of the buildings on this page have been painted with
Sadolin Superdec. It is a water based, highly durable paint
for cladding and exterior joinery. Sadolin Superdec remains
flexible and resists cracking, peeling and flaking.
Concrete Bases
Having a level base is the
perfect foundation for your timber building, it
means that all the panels or logs fit together
without a hitch and will settle in unison. We
require your concrete base to have a minimum
depth of 100mm (4 inches) and suggest the use
of a laser level to ensure the concrete is 100%
flat and level. The base should be constructed to
the exact dimensions of your building footprint
so that when rain runs down your building it will
be directed away from the bearers.
Cabin Timber Bases
If
you are unable to have
a concrete base then we
would recommend a timber
framed base with concrete
posts. Again, this needs to
be constructed to the exact
dimensions
Shed Timber Bases
We can supply a timber
framed bearer base for all
our panel buildings. This
is constructed using a
timber frame and legs with
additional concrete bricks
to ensure the timber is off
the ground.
