Professional log cabin assembly - interlocking logs properly seated, windows and doors fitted, roof weatherproofed. Multi-day service for garden offices, summerhouses, and hobby rooms.
### More Than a Shed
Log cabins are proper garden buildings - **home offices, artist studios, music rooms, summerhouses**. They're more substantial than sheds, with interlocking log construction that creates genuinely usable spaces.
> 🪵 **Logs must seat properly.** Every log slots into the one below. Gaps mean drafts and water ingress. I take time to get each course right.

Good to Know

Will pause and resume if needed. **Base preparation:** - I assemble on prepared bases - Concrete, paving, or bearer frame - Must be level and solid - Major groundwork is separate **Treatment:** - Most cabins need good quality treatment - Annual maintenance extends life - Devon weather demands attention
Frequently Asked Questions about Log cabin assembly in Teignmouth
How is a log cabin different from a shed?
Log cabins use interlocking horizontal logs instead of panels. The logs slot together creating thicker, more insulated walls. Better for garden offices and year-round use.
How long does assembly take?
A small cabin takes a full day. Larger cabins or those with verandas take two days or more. Weather dependent - need dry conditions for roof work.
Can log cabins be insulated for year-round use?
Standard single-skin cabins are fine for summer but cold in winter. Year-round use needs insulation - either twin-skin construction or added after assembly.
Do you do the electrics?
I assemble the structure. Electrical work needs a qualified electrician after the building is weathertight.
