BEWARE OF THE 12-14-16 week waiting time for your LOG CABIN 2020………………………………………………………………………

A small note to the wise, in 2008 we all remember the awful recession, and in that recession a few tricks were played by certain individuals that I will not mention, who are though still trading, and the trick was this, they knew that bad times were coming, so they did something very underhanded, and as a supplier to some of these companies, we lost 100’s of 1000’s of pounds. And the Public lost a lot more.

You must be very wary of the 12 week waiting time scenario, companies who you think you can trust, tell you the waiting time is 12/14/16 weeks, and you pay a deposit, after that 16 weeks has elapses, they go bust! They go off line, and you will receive sorry letters, but your deposit is gone, and then you have to go back to the bank to see if its possible to get your money back, we do not have a waiting time, we are as always pre Virus 4/5 weeks, the same as it was before, and 4/5 weeks after said Virus.

So if your told to wait, be careful………………….

Please remember , 2007, many resellers went broke, pay by card. deposit and for full payment. Be clever, and be happy! Keep your distance and wear a mask!

Regarding purchasing Cabins, Timber Buildings or any item from Self Employed Dealers. Resellers,  who sell our LV or FC brand, if you went to the Self Employed Dealers, reseller,  first, please do not come to us, if you have a question, concerns please call us, but as they are resellers, we are unable to do anything legally to them regarding their prices , Please remember and do not forget a business needs earn money, we can say what we think they should be sold at, but we cannot by law demand they sell it at what we think. So, it’s always best to look at other websites, and please remember our cabins are high quality, so like for like pricing will be difficult, but there are a few companies out there that are the same nearly as ours and you can gauge if the pricing if fair or not.

I say this all the time, pay with a credit card………. It keeps you safe.

We have no claim or claims to our dealerships working practises, or who and what they do. We are not responsible for deposits they may take, and we are not responsible for broken doors, windows, or bad workmanship, fitted kitchens, bad fitted bathrooms etc, we however would like to be told this in writing so we can take the matter to the company concerned and ask them to help you with your concerns.

When we deliver a cabin to our resellers, they are the owner of that cabin, timber building etc, until they give it to you, you don’t even own it, once its delivered to you, you sign for it, but before you do, inspect it, you can refuse to sign for it if there is damage. The law is on your side, however if you have had a bespoke cabin made for you, and there are missing parts, or a broken door, you cannot return this, the company (reseller) has 28 days, or whatever his T and C’s  say in which to fix your Log Cabin. We have some amazing resellers, and they will bend over to help you have that amazing cabin in your garden.

Here is a note to everyone, only buy a cabin if your job is secure, and you can afford it, as most cabins are bespoke manufactured for you, refunds are almost impossible. So please beware of this.

Please take note, please,please always ask if you can pay with a credit card.

Trees- Timber – Siberian Larch

Some Exciting Facts about Trees- Timber.

Siberian Larch.

Pine.

 

Some facts..

All members from the pine family (pine, spruce, firs, cedars, larches, hemlocks, yews, and so on) have cones, but “pine cones” only come from pine trees.

Trees- Timber – Siberian Larch

A pine cone on the forest floor is definitely an indication of moisture and wildfire danger.

Closed scales on a cone imply damp conditions while open scales imply the forest floor is dry. In autumn, pine trees make a lot more of the larger cones before a serious winter to ensure seeds will make it by way of squirrel and bird feeding frenzies.

As for tree species it would be the pioneer species- in this case Siberian Larch (Larix sibirica) increasing in monoculture.

This species features a quantity of adaptations to permit it to survive beneath these extreme situations.

Siberian Larch is really a really tough wood to dry; the procedure has to be completed really slowly to stop the wood from severely twisting and splitting.

These same properties make it difficult for moisture to penetrate the wood after it is dry.

Be aware that the wood will most likely experience some slight surface splitting because it dries.

Making use of a stain using a UV inhibitor will help shield the wood from splitting excessively.

Siberian Larch accepts stain properly and may be nailed, screwed, or applied using a hidden fastener technique.

Siberian larch cladding is recognized for colour and beauty, so houses that want subtle but engaging exteriors will locate this an extremely all-natural decision.

The colour and tone is striking enough for any location and no matter what sort of home you might have, larch cladding is really a beautiful organic option.

The general impact remains essentially beautiful even for a lot of years at a time.

The larch trees of western Russia have been lengthy known because of this and their demand continues to escalate.

Siberian Larch wood cladding functions for homes exactly where durability in the exteriors is a massive factor.

For areas that are prone to climate extremes, this option operates greater than perfectly.

The life span of siberian larch can run in decades.

Also, if you are not keen on obtaining a house that wants frequent maintenance, the great news is larch when left untreated provides a visual spectacle over the years with alterations in colour and appeal.

Siberian Larch is a fairly new item to enter the North American deck market which is imported from Russia.

It is dimensionally steady, reasonably low cost, considering its amazing quality, and it’s naturally resistant to decay.

Siberian Larch is light golden brown and can oxidize with age into a beautiful silvery gray colour.

It’s harder than Cedar and Redwood and is structurally stronger than Pressure Treated Wood because of its tight grain as well as a big proportion of latewood in its growth rings.

Latewood (winter cut timber) is denser, far more mechanically steady, and tough than early wood (timber cut in spring) which is a lot more likely to scratch and wear away the surface over time.

That is the outcome of a very limited summer time expanding season inside the intense Siberian climate.

Siberian Larch includes a sizable proportion of heartwood simply because the trees are harvested from Old Development forests that possess superior qualities to trees grown from Second Development plantations.

Having all heartwood also makes it possible for Siberian Larch to keep a constant colour throughout a whole deck surface.
