All log cabins need a substantial base. The base should be solid, square, flat and level to ensure the stability of your log cabin. Paving slabs or concrete are ideal. A solid concrete base is more permanent and normally more expensive but it provides an excellent base especially for a larger log cabin. Paving slabs are more practical and cost effective, especially for a smaller log cabin at the far end of the garden.

assembly is sometimes described as a logical .EXE or .DLL, and can be an application (with a main entry point) or a library. An assembly consists of one or more files (dlls, exes, html files etc), and represents a group of resources, type definitions, and implementations of those types. An assembly may also contain references to other assemblies. These resources, types and references are described in a block of data called a manifest.

Log cabins are made out of wood, therefore, they need to be treated just like any other wood product. Visit your local home maintenance store and speak to one of the representatives about the best wood protection. It is very important to apply wood sealant of your choice as soon as you erect your log cabin. By doing so you will prevent discoloration caused by sun and possible water damage. Please maintain your cabin properly and it will serve for many years to come.

Naturally this depends on the size of the building. Usually we deliver and construct log cabins within a normal working day.

The space will always be used, so buy the biggest log cabin you can afford provided that it fits comfortably in the space available. There are no precise guidelines regarding the size. Often the size of the log cabin is dictated by the space available. We offer a wide range of sizes to suit every space. If you are replacing an existing building, you should consider whether to have the same size again or perhaps larger. You should also consider how you may wish to use your log cabin.

Ideally your log cabin should have a clear space at least 18" wide on all sides, if possible. This ensures easy access for both installation and future maintenance. In reality this is often not practical and at many sites it is not needed. A reduced clearance is often possible on one or two sides. If the space around your log cabin is restricted remember to allow for any roof overhang. You should also cut back or remove any nearby shrubs and trees. Remember to allow for future growth.

You will receive advance notice of the delivery day either in writing or by telephone. If it is not convenient you can postpone the delivery with reasonable notice. These log cabins are extremely heavy, with an average cabin weighing several tonnes. Delivery requires a large lorry with a professional HGV driver. The driver will expect help to unload everything quickly at the kerbside. Normally the delivery is arranged with whoever is installing the cabin so that the fitters unload it.

All Summer log cabins and other timber buildings require regular treatment. The external timber should be treated with a good quality wood stain every year. This will prolong the life of your log cabin. All major wood stain manufacturers offer suitable products in a choice of colours, available from good hardware shops. We also recommend that you regularly oil the door and window hinges as required to ensure continued smooth operation.

The floor and roof of all Summer log cabins can be easily insulated. Polystyrene floor insulation is fitted directly under the floor boards and between the floor joists, retained by timber battens. Roof insulation is fixed between timber battens which are fixed on top of the roof boards and insulation is placed between the battens. Plywood or similar decking is laid over the insulation and fixed into the battens and this is covered with your choice of roofing as required.

Although providing an electricity supply to a log cabin is normally a straightforward task, for safety reasons we recommend that you consult an approved electrician first. Since January 1st 2005 all electrical work must be completed in accordance with IEE wiring regulations and BS 7671. Notifiable work must be either notified directly to the local building control department or completed by an operator who is approved under the Part P Electrical Competent Person Scheme.

Chalets are traditionally wood or cedar-sided homes and their interiors can feature accents of wood and drywall. In our area, chalets are not necessarily constructed with wood or cedar siding; they are often just regular homes that are nestled in the mountains. Log homes are constructed out of logs and feature them both inside and outside; they tend to feature limited amounts of drywall inside.

Maintenance and durability do not have to be a concern. We recommend the Sikkens Wood Coatings for protection and preservation of Log Siding. We support the Akzo Nobel "Sikkens Wood Coatings" products for a good reason -- there simply are no products available that even compare. This is not just our opinion -- check these superb products out with publications like Consumer Reports - and many other resources, including anyone who knows and works with wood.

Yes. However this will depend on the amount you have invested in Superannuation. See our web site choice of Funds for existing Superannuation monies and future Superannuation contributions.

Sorry, but no. Foxwood homes must comply with design guidelines of the review board. We call it a European Country style.

Not usually, but as you may appreciate each local authority will have it's own rules particularly in conservation areas. So please check with your local council. Often a local council may ask that a garden building should: not exceed two thirds of the garden size; that there needs to be at least a 6.6ft (2m) gap from other buildings to act as a fire break and that there should be a 3.3ft (1m) division from your neighbours. The height restrictions are usually 13.2ft (4m) for apex buildings and 9.

While we can't anticipate every question, we'll certainly be happy to provide you with any additional answers and information you might need or want.

The majority of log cabins do not require planning permission. However, permission is required for any log cabin which covers over half the garden, which is not for domestic use or which is over 3 metres high with a pent roof or 4 metres high with an apex roof. If you live in a terraced or town house you are normally entitled to build up to 50 cubic metres of extensions without planning permission. In a detached or semi detached house the permitted volume is 70 cubic metres.
