LogCabins For Sale

It’s January 2026. The UK log cabin industry is worth over £350 million annually — a staggering figure that would have seemed impossible when we first opened our workshop doors in 2003. Back then, “log cabin” was a niche term whispered among garden enthusiasts and DIY hobbyists. Few understood what it meant to build a *real* log cabin — one that could withstand decades of British weather, settle naturally without warping, and remain structurally sound, thermally efficient, and aesthetically timeless.

The quiet cabin companies secrets!

We didn’t just enter the market in 2003 — **we created it**.(Log Cabins For Sale)

Not through marketing gimmicks or inflated claims, but through relentless craftsmanship, engineering rigour, and an uncompromising refusal to cut corners. Over the past 23 years, FactoryCabins.com has not only pioneered the modern UK log cabin sector — we’ve also been its conscience. We’ve trained, mentored, and launched countless competitors — only to part ways with most of them when they chose profit over principle. Yes, we’ve *sacked* dealers, distributors, and even former partners — not out of spite, but because integrity cannot be negotiated.

This blog isn’t a sales pitch. It’s a manifesto. A warning. A guide. And above all — a plea to consumers: *Do not let the noise drown out the truth.*

Because today, more than ever, the log cabin market is flooded with imitation, deception, and dangerously substandard products masquerading as “premium.” And yet — amid the chaos — there remains a handful of manufacturers who still believe that a log cabin should be built to last longer than the owner’s mortgage.

We are one of them.

Let us take you on a journey — through history, engineering, ethics, and the quiet revolution we’ve waged behind the scenes for over 2 and a bit decades.

Part I: The Birth of an Industry — How FactoryCabins.com Built the UK Log Cabin Market (2003–2026)

In 2003, the UK had no dedicated log cabin manufacturers. There were timber framers, garden shed builders, and a few Scandinavian importers — but no one designing, engineering, and manufacturing log cabins *for the British climate*, using British standards, and respecting the physics of solid timber construction. One Cabin was the Clock House, our design.

We started small: a single workshop in rural Lithuania , with two carpenters, hand engineered notching machine, and a dream. Our first cabin? A 3m x 3m garden store — tongue-and-groove spruce, 44mm logs, fairly good notches, and a roof designed to shed rain *and* snow. It wasn’t glamorous. But it stood firm through 6 winters, zero rot, zero warping.

What set us apart from day one was our obsession with *movement*. Logs move. They shrink. They twist. They settle. Any builder who ignores this is building a time bomb.

So, we developed our proprietary **Dynamic Log System** — not a marketing slogan, but a structural philosophy:

**Moisture content control**: All timber dried to 16–18% MC before assembly — never air-dried on-site.

**Log profiling**: Precision-machined interlocking notches that allow vertical settlement *without* compromising wall integrity.

Within two years, we had 17 dealers across England and Wales.Scotland Not franchises — true partners. We trained them. We shared our CAD designs. We gave them access to our quality control protocols. We believed in collaboration.

Then came the first betrayal.

A dealer in Essex began selling our 5m x 4m “ DF 24” cabin — identical in spec — at **140% above our factory price**, claiming it was “exclusive” and “hand-finished in the UK.” When customers complained about warped doors and UVPC windows (more on that later), he blamed *us*. We investigated. Found his warehouse full of rebranded stock from a bulk supplier in Europe — same dimensions, same drawings, but with inferior timber, no kiln drying, and plastic windows bolted in with screws instead of proper joinery.

We terminated the relationship. Publicly. With evidence.

That was the first of many.

By 2011, we had directly trained or supplied over 40 companies now operating in the UK log cabin space. Many went on to become household names. Some still exist — though few retain the original ethos. Most? They pivoted to volume. To speed. To margin. And in doing so, they sacrificed the very thing that made log cabins viable in the first place: *quality*.We wanted to at the very beginning, manufacture a building that was better than a box standard shed, these companies have done the opposite, they have reduced the cabin to below a shed, and charge 3x its value.

We didn’t stop innovating. In 2013, we introduced the UK’s first **twin-skin log cabin** — 70mm outer log + 70mm inner log, with insulated cavity. It was ridiculed as “over-engineered.” Today, it’s the gold standard — and copied relentlessly.

But here’s the uncomfortable truth no one wants to admit:

**The UK log cabin industry grew not because of better products — but because of better marketing.**

And that’s where the rot began.

Part II: The Great Dilution — How “Premium” Became a Lie (2015–2026)

Between 2015 and 2026, the UK log cabin market exploded. Online retail boomed. Amazon entered. eBay sellers appeared overnight. Suddenly, anyone with a forklift and a website could call themselves a “log cabin manufacturer.”

We watched — horrified — as standards collapsed.

The UVPC Scandal: Why Plastic Windows Have No Place on Log Cabins

Let me be unequivocal:

**UVPC (uPVC) windows and doors do NOT belong on log cabins.**

Here’s why — and this is physics, not opinion:

Log cabins settle vertically by 3–8% over the first 12–18 months (depending on log thickness and moisture content).

uPVC frames are rigid. They do not flex. They do not accommodate movement.

When the log wall shrinks *around* a rigid uPVC frame, stress concentrates at the corners → cracks form → seals fail → water ingress → rot begins.

Within 2–3 years, 70% of uPVC-fitted cabins show visible gaps, fogged double glazing, or jammed sashes.

We tested this ourselves — in our own lab, with accelerated settling rigs. We fitted identical cabins with:

Option A: High-quality joinery-glulam timber windows (our standard)

Option B: uPVC windows (industry “budget” spec)

After 18 months of simulated settlement:

Option A: Minor adjustment needed. Seals intact. Operation smooth.

Option B: 3 out of 4 windows cracked at the top corner. One door refused to close. Condensation inside glazing units.

Yet today — walk into any major retailer’s showroom, or scroll through their website — and you’ll see “Premium Log Cabin” advertised with *uPVC windows*, *uPVC doors*, *uPVC cladding*. They call it “low maintenance.” It’s not low maintenance — it’s *low integrity*.

We use only **joinery-grade glulam timber** for our window and door frames. Why?

– Glulam (glued laminated timber) is engineered to resist twisting and warping — critical when logs move.

– It expands and contracts *with* the cabin structure.

– It accepts traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery — far stronger than screw-fixed uPVC.

– It can be repaired, refinished, and lasts decades — unlike uPVC, which becomes brittle and yellowed in UV exposure.

The 200% Mark-Up Mirage

Let’s talk money — because this is where the deception becomes criminal.

In 2014, we audited 12 leading UK log cabin retailers. We purchased identical 5m x 4m cabins (same log thickness, same floor specs, same roof pitch) from each — using fake buyer profiles to avoid special pricing.

Results?

|—————————–|———————-|————————|———|

| FactoryCabins.com | £6,850 | £8,995 | ~31% |

| Competitor A | £6,850 | £14,200 | **107%** |

| Competitor B | £6,850 | £18,500 | **170%** |

| Competitor C | £6,850 I £20,100 | **194%** |

Yes — nearly **200% markup** on *identical product*.

And what did those customers receive?

– Same 44mm spruce logs (not upgraded to 68mm or 70mm)

– Same 18mm OSB flooring (not 28mm T&G pine)

– Same 16mm roof boards (not 19mm)

– Same basic hardware (not German-made)

No innovation. No improvement. Just higher prices — justified by slogans like “Luxury Edition,” “Designer Range,” or “Handcrafted Excellence.”

Meanwhile, our warranty? **20 years** — conditional on basic maintenance (clean gutters, keep foundation dry, re-treat external timber every 3 years). Not 10 years. *20.* Because if you treat a log cabin like a house — it will last like one.

Most others offer 10-year warranties — knowing full well that by year 11, the cabin will likely be leaking, warping, or suffering condensation damage due to poor design. Windows and Doors falling apart, It’s not a warranty — it’s a *time-limited liability cap*.

We’ve seen it too many times: A customer calls us in Year 8, frustrated because their “premium” cabin is rotting at the base. We help as much as we can, its normally windows and doors, or the bottom logs have rotted away. Windows and doors we can help with, but rotten logs , impossible, sadly.

That’s not business. That’s ethics.

Part III: The Anatomy of a Real Log Cabin — What You’re *Not* Being Told

When you browse log cabin websites, you’re drowning in glossy images, 3D renders, and five-star reviews (many of which are incentivised or fake). But the real story lies in the details — the ones hidden in tiny footnotes or omitted entirely.

Let’s dissect what makes a *true* quality cabin:

1. Timber Specification — It’s Not Just “Spruce”

**Species**: Norwegian Spruce (Picea abies) is ideal — straight grain, low resin, stable. Avoid “mixed softwood” or “Eurasian timber” — vague terms hiding inferior species.

**Moisture Content**: Must be 16–18% *at time of assembly*. Air-dried timber (20–25% MC) will shrink excessively post-installation — causing gaps, leaks, and joint failure.

**Kiln Drying**: Non-negotiable. Air-dried logs retain sapwood — prime breeding ground for fungus and beetle larvae.

We test every batch. We reject 12% of incoming timber — even if it means delaying orders.

2. Log Profiling & Joinery

Our CNC machinery notches with absolute precision time and time again first of all the cabin is made using cad, then those plans are entered into the CNC machines, however before we start cutting the cabin we send you the plans it is that this stage that you can change or alter something, once you are satisfied you sign off the plans and we begin the process of manufacturing the cabin, quick and easy, no mistakes.

3. Flooring — Where Most Fail

Windows & Doors — Our Crown Jewel (and Why 99.9% Fail to Copy It)

This is where we draw the line — and where imitators consistently fail.

Our windows and doors are built in-house, using:

Glulam frames** (laminated spruce, 7-ply, finger-jointed)

Sealed gaskets** (EPDM rubber, not PVC)

German-made locking mechanisms**: Winkhaus, Siegenia, Roto — tested to 100,000 cycles

Tempered double-glazed units** (4-16-4), argon-filled, low-E coated, and toughened as standard.

Stainless steel hinges** (not zinc-plated iron — which rusts in 18 months)

Why do 99.9% of copycats fail?

A solid timber frame *will* twist as the cabin settles. Ours doesn’t — because the layers counterbalance each other.

Try finding a competitor who publishes their window spec sheet. Most won’t — because they can’t.

We challenge anyone: Send us your cabin’s window frame. We’ll tell you within 30 seconds whether it’s glulam or solid timber — and whether it will last 5 years or 20.

5. Insulation & Thermal Performance — The Net Zero Frontier

Here’s something few talk about: **Twin Skin Log cabins can be net zero.

Not “eco-friendly” — *net zero*. Meaning: annual energy consumption ≤ renewable generation on-site.

How?

– Twin-skin construction (70mm + 70mm logs) with mineral wool cavity insulation (U-value ~0.28 W/m²K)

– Triple-glazed windows (U-value 0.7)

– Air-source heat pump (3–4 kW)

– Solar PV array (4–6 kW)

– Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)

We built our first net-zero cabin in 2023 — a 10.2 x 9.2 m x 6m holiday home with:

Two en-suite bedrooms

-Kitchen

– Living/dining area

– Utility room

– Roof-mounted ground solar array

– ASHP + underfloor heating

Annual energy use: **2,100 kWh**

Solar generation: **2,450 kWh**

Net export: **+350 kWh/year**

It’s in stock — ready for delivery. Not a prototype. Not a demo. A *real* physical Twin Skin cabin.

Yet most companies still sell 44mm single-skin cabins with no insulation, calling them “energy efficient.” They’re not. They’re thermal sieves.

Part IV: The Dealer Crisis — Why We Terminated 97% of Our Partners

Let’s address the elephant in the room: **Dealerships**.

In our early years, we relied on dealers — local businesses who knew their communities, could provide installation support, and offered after-sales service.

By 2019 , we had 50/60 active dealers across the UK-Wales-Scotland-Holland-Europe

By 2020, we had **2**.

Why?

Reason #1: Systematic Overcharging and stealing !

We discovered dealers inflating prices by 50–100% — then blaming *us* for “high factory costs.” One dealer in Manchester charged £22,500 for a cabin we sold him for £9,200. When confronted, he said: *“Customers expect to pay that — they think it’s premium.”*

We terminated him.

We decided to sell direct. No more killing our brand and hard work with sadly thieves.

Reason 2: Theft & Fraud

Yes — theft. From *customers*.

Case study: A dealer in Yorkshire took deposits from 14 customers (£68.000 total) for cabins “in production.” The cabins never existed. He used the money to pay personal debts. When customers called us, we reported him to the police — he was later sentenced.

We also reported him to Trading Standards.

Another case: A dealer in Scotland substituted our 70mm twin-skin cabins with 44mm single-skin knockoffs — same packaging, same branding. Customers received cabins that leaked in rain and froze in winter. We sent engineers. Found the fraud. Terminated. Prosecuted.

These aren’t outliers. They’re symptoms of a broken system.

Which leads us to our core belief:

**If you want quality — buy direct from the factory.**

Why?

– No middleman markup

– Direct access to engineers and designers

– Full transparency on materials and processes

– Ability to customise *anything* — from roof pitch to amount of doors and windows,

– No risk of misrepresentation

And let’s be clear: **There are no significant log cabin factories in England.** None. Zero.

Why? Because England has no commercial forests suitable for structural timber. The UK imports 85% of its softwood — mostly from Scandinavia and the Baltics and sadly the Baltics is mainly Pine, too many knots, young trees, and small in diameter,. So when a company claims “Made in England,” they mean: *Assembled in England from imported parts.* Often with Chinese-made hardware and cheap timber.

We manufacture in Lithuania — But we manufacture only with Swedish Spruce.

Buying from a “UK factory” dealer? You’re paying for logistics, not quality.

Part V: The Consumer’s Survival Guide — How to Spot a Real Cabin

You’re overwhelmed. You’ve read 10 websites. Seen 50 videos. Still don’t know who to trust.

Here’s your actionable checklist — proven over 23 years:

Insist on Window/Door Specifications

Ask: *“Are windows joinery glulam or solid timber? Who manufactures the hardware? Please send photos of exactly what I am buying.

If they say “uPVC” or “premium composite” — run.

Request 4 Independent Customer References

Not testimonials on their site. *Real people.* Ask:

When did you receive your cabin?”

What issues have you had?”

Have you needed repairs? Who did them?”

Would you buy from them again?”

We give customers our direct line — no gatekeeping. If a company refuses, they have something to hide.

Check the Warranty Terms

A 20-year warranty that requires *only* basic maintenance (gutter cleaning, no standing water, re-treatment) is credible.

A 10-year warranty that excludes “natural settlement,” “weather damage,” or “improper installation” is worthless.

Visit the Factory (If Possible)

We welcome visitors — by appointment. See the timber stacks. Watch the CNC machines. Meet the joiners. Compare the finish on a freshly assembled cabin vs. one stored for 6 months.

If they won’t let you visit — why not?

Our Promise — And Why We’re Still Here After 24 Years

We could have taken the easy path. We could have switched to uPVC. We could have outsourced to the lowest bidder. We could have offered 10-year warranties and called it a day.

But we didn’t.

Because we believe:

– A log cabin is not a garden ornament. It’s a *building*.

– It deserves the same respect as a house — structurally, thermally, and aesthetically.

– The customer shouldn’t need a degree in timber engineering to avoid being ripped off.

Today, we manufacture over 7,000 unique cabin designs — from a 2m x 1.5m lawn mower cabin (yes, we make those — with lockable doors and ventilation) to a 20m x 18m luxury lodge with underfloor heating, smart lighting, and a rooftop terrace.

We’ve shipped to every county in the UK. To remote Scottish islands. To Welsh valleys. To urban London gardens (yes — even on 10m x 8m plots, with planning permission).

And we still do what we did in 2003:

– Hand-inspect every log

– Test every window under simulated settlement

– Refuse to compromise on hardware

– Fire dealers who betray trust

We’re not the biggest. We’re not the cheapest. But we are — and always have been — the most honest.

## Final Thoughts: The Future of Log Cabins — And Your Role in It

The UK log cabin industry stands at a crossroads.

On one side: Mass-produced, disposable structures — sold with flashy ads, fake reviews, and promises that crumble with the first frost.

On the other: A quiet movement of makers who believe that wood, when respected, can create beauty that endures.

We choose the latter.

But we cannot do it alone.

Every time you choose quality over hype — when you ask the hard questions, demand proof, and refuse to accept “good enough” — you strengthen the entire industry.

You protect future generations from inheriting cabins that rot, leak, and disappoint.

You honour the craft.

So, thank you — for reading this far. For caring enough to seek the truth.

If you have questions — about timber, insulation, net zero, or why your neighbour’s “premium” cabin is already peeling — email us. Call us. Visit us.

We’re here. As we’ve been since 2003.

Not to sell you a cabin.

But to help you build a legacy.**FactoryCabins.com**

Best Practices for Constructing and Assembling Insulated Log Cabins

Introduction:
Log cabins have a long history and are known for their durability, natural beauty, and timeless appeal. However, recent trends in the construction and assembly of log cabins have raised concerns about the use of external cladding, screwing logs together, and improper insulation practices. This report aims to highlight the importance of following best practices in constructing and assembling log cabins to ensure their structural integrity and longevity.

Importance of Traditional Log Cabin Construction:
Traditional log cabin construction involves interlocking logs without the use of screws or nails. This method allows the logs to shrink naturally over time, which helps maintain the structural strength of the cabin. When logs are screwed together, this natural process is disrupted, leading to potential issues such as loss of structural strength and log movement.

Impact of External Cladding:
External cladding, while commonly used in modern construction practices, is not suitable for log cabins. Adding vertical timber to the exterior of a log cabin and screwing it on can prevent the logs from shrinking properly. As logs naturally shrink over time, failure to allow for this movement can result in structural issues and compromise the overall integrity of the cabin.

Insulation Considerations:
Proper insulation is essential for maintaining a comfortable indoor environment in a log cabin. However, improper insulation practices, such as adding plastic windows and doors, can hinder the natural movement of the logs. It is important to consult with experts to determine the best insulation methods that will not interfere with the natural shrinking process of the logs.

Assembly Practices:
The assembly of a log cabin requires careful attention to detail and adherence to traditional construction methods. Assemblers should be knowledgeable about the unique characteristics of log cabins and follow best practices to ensure the structural integrity of the building. Cutting corners or rushing the assembly process can lead to long-term issues and compromise the quality of the cabin.

Recommendations for Log Cabin Construction:
To ensure the longevity and structural integrity of a log cabin, it is recommended to follow these best practices:

1.  Use interlocking logs without screws or nails to allow for natural shrinkage.
2.  Avoid external cladding that can impede the movement of the logs.
3.  Consult with experts to determine the best insulation methods that do not interfere with log movement.
4.  Hire experienced assemblers who are familiar with traditional log cabin construction techniques.
5.  Prioritize quality over speed in the assembly process to avoid long-term issues.

The construction and assembly of log cabins require careful consideration of traditional building methods and best practices. By following these guidelines and avoiding practices that can compromise the structural integrity of the cabin, owners can ensure that their log cabin remains a durable and beautiful structure for years to come. It is essential to prioritise quality, expertise, and respect for the natural characteristics of the logs in the construction and assembly of log cabins.

Hard Customers.

You know you get these days when you just want to shout and say, your design is crap, its going to fall down, and you have too many windows and its too thin, and you want it for nothing, and you want the best and you moan at the price and all the time, we, me, are thinking actually it was a we, as three of us all thought, fuck this design is dangerous and shit. But what can you say, you try and help, but all you get is the customer really not listening, and not believing because he has spent hours listening to wankers on the phone who know nothing about cabins, and boring the poor customer to suicide, and then when he actually lands on our pages and says why are you slightly more than the worst fucking company in Lithuania, I just sit back in shock and am mortified.

Log Cabins are not easy to design, and in this day and age, they are really hard things to manufacture as most of the components are hard to find, thats the quality parts, we only use quality, the cheap crap, is everywhere, most bulk mills will have containers and containers of rubbish handles and doors, and why are we not as cheap as these other mills, simple….

Harrods———–Tescos.

You want your Cabin to come with quality attached at every level and pay for it, you would go to Harrods.
If you were looking for a cheap, off the self, OK cabin, where would you go, Tescos.

And thats the difference from us to them.

Simple look at this.

Take a look at the first 2 photos, you might think, they look ok, looks good quality, and the price OK… Well you are deluded or on a £4 budget, as these are the worst hinges and worst doors for a good quality log cabin which were ever manufactured. Awful….
Nothing even looks remotely hard wearing or robust……….

Now check these out, these are our standard doors and windows, and this is just the beginning on why we are picked time and time again , because our quality is second to none, there are companies out their now copying our look, but a copy handbag is a copy handbag!

All hardware German.
All windows and doors Aluminium rain drip trays x 2 on windows.
Windows fitted with a 5 point locking tilt and turn system.
Doors also come with 5 point locking system.

Before we tell you, you tell us what size purlins the compnay your thinking of buying from offer in their price, these hold the roof up. Important.

Lastly yes, we are lucky to say we pick our customers, we get about 30 requests a week, we pick just 10 from these. I might say yes and then have a customer start demanding, this equals returned deposit immediately. If you want the best then you play by our rules, which are exceptionally fair, if you don’t then go and buy the crap out there which is for sale! I do not care, my customers are important to me, if your not one of mine, then i am not loosing any sleep over if your cabin is safe, if everything is quality. if it gets to you on time, all bit and bobs with it, and making sure delivery is a pleasant exsperiance for you. And at no time allowing anyone to be rude to you. A zero free Drama way of getting a cabin, no middle men.And as more and more customers are coming direct, paying with a credit card and understanding its the best way to get the best of the best, and luckily i am speaking to people I like.

We are a British Company, we also have a British Merchant account, which you pay directly into with your visa or debit card. You are not paying into a foreign bank, which I would strictly suggest against doing, I won’t even do that. So with Factory Cabins you are getting it direct from us here in Lithuania, but the best part its paid into a UK bank.

Please remember it was us 21 years ago that put the first 40mm 5m x 5m super star log cabin onto the market, then we designed the clock house, then the twin skins and 28mm flooring and the mad thing we did was design over 7000 cabins. which means we have more designs made already than other company. It means we know our stuff.

Please look at our windows and doors and the other companies, and you will see ours are designed to last and the other companies are designed for bonfire night.
It really depends on how proud you are on what you manufacture.

Before you buy a cabin, please come to us and compare, get all there details and then get ours and we will beat them hands down for quality each and every time.

And Lastly if your buying rubbish, cheap mass produced crap like a £299 pound shed….. just think if the tree that had to be cut for that shed to be made , sawn up was worth all that effort.

Log Cabins in Scotland 2016

Log Cabins in Scotland

quality log cabins for scotland

Over the years, we have sold thousands of log cabins into Scotland.

However, over the last ten years we have found that Scotland is not just getting wetter the wind is also becoming extremely ferocious in the winter, which is causing concern to many cabin owners.

There are many companies in Scotland that refuse to sell 28mm and 34mm log cabins due to the fact that they tend to leak, blow away and that complaints a fourth coming on a daily basis.

34mm log cabins are great as small storage sheds, bin covers, bike sheds, or to store your lawn mower.

45mm log cabins are great in all weathers if the manufacturer you purchase yours from offers all the necessary parts.

Firstly, the windows and doors should be of residential standard, which means they are certified, and are produced to be watertight. This is accomplished through correct manufacturing, using the correct amount of mastic when applying the double glazed unit to the frame, and making sure the hardware is fit for purpose.

Residential windows and doors as standard in 45mm log cabins are incredibly hard to find as standard. deluxe Range Of Log Cabins !

In addition, there is no company in the Log Cabin business apart from us that offers stainless steel tie down rods for the corners as standard for 45mm log cabins.

What we have achieved with our standard deluxe cabins, and all the extras, and the low pricing is actually unheard of.

There are now companies offering to spray your windows any color, but!! these windows are not certified and are not built to withstand mother nature.

If you live in Scotland, and are looking for a Log Cabin, then please send us an email, we have dealers, top, middle and bottom, and we’ll make sure your LV dealer is experienced. Polite and extra helpful.

Log Cabins LV has the best dealerships in the UK, we are in Hastings, Poole, London, and Scotland also on the Isle Of Man to name just a few, we cover the whole of Ireland and Europe, Australia, America, Canada, and we are expanding monthly. Our Cabins can be found almost everywhere, we are known for fairness in price, quality in our manufacturing.

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.

Thank you for reading.

Log Cabins LV 2016

Log Cabins- cabins- cabin- timber buildings- quality buildings- deluxe Log Cabins

Are you looking for a log cabin that really is a cut above the rest, a log cabin that truly is built to last?

We say in the industry, buy cheap buy twice, and this is completely directed towards all the bulk manufacturers that manufacture cheap off the shelf log cabins, (if that’s how you describe wasting pallet timber).

Log Cabins LV is the only company that actually has a Deluxe Standard Range. I know this is a crazy way of describing a Deluxe Range of log cabins, but they are Deluxe Cabins, fully specked out, with all the bells and whistles and we have decided to sell them as a standard range.

Oak thresholds, Residential Double Glazed Tilt and Turn Windows and Solid, Residential standard doors, fully insulated with CE-Trada Certification.

There is absolutely nothing better offered any where as a standard log cabin.

Plus not forgetting over sized purlins and a cabin that is truly manufactured by one of the most successful, skilled manufacturing plants of log cabins in this end of the World!

I know this is going to infuriate all the other manufacturers, as they will now need to go back to the drawing board and work out how they can offer to their customer base such a very high quality standard log cabin with everything we have, and compete (They can’t and won’t)

As I know, there aren’t any Log Cabin manufacturers on the market that manufactures Joinery Glulam Residential Trada, CE certified Windows and Doors.

So! Why? Is our deluxe range of Log Cabins so much better than the rest?

Firstly, we have more experience than any other manufacturer at manufacturing log cabins, we do not just mass produce 45mm log cabins as a business unlike 99.9% of the industry, we also manufacture Hand Made Norwegian Log Cabins, which are made using chainsaws by our highly skilled staff, Timber Frame Housing, Passive Housing which we supply to the Norwegian market sizes vary from 150 sq meters to 450 sq meters approximately 6 to 8 houses monthly!

Our Camping Pods which adorn so many camps sites through out Europe, we have fitted out 2 parks with over 100 pods, making us the largest camping pod manufacturer in the business.

Also BBQ Huts, our Huts are with out doubt the most reasonably priced BBQ huts in the business.

With their ergonomic walls, makes having a BBQ in your garden positively Fun and incredibly comfortable!

Secondly, we have invested heavily into training our staff; we now have highly skilled work force of joiners, carpenters, and operators, plus investment into CNC machinery which then truly turns our timber supply from raw material into positively amazing high quality Windows and Doors-Dwellings-Log Cabins-Camping Pods and so very much more!

If you are thinking of purchasing a log cabin, need help? Want and chat?

Please do not hesitate to give us a call! We have the most skilled dealers in the UK-Europe!

The Most Sought after Range Of Deluxe Standard Log Cabins in Europe!

We are so incredibly pleased to announce that we have our New for 2016 deluxe Standard Range of Log Cabin designs finished and ready for offer in January!

Our New range of over 100 Deluxe Log cabins, many are under 2.5 in height, and many old favorites now reintroduced and now are just a lot better!

The reason we say Standard Deluxe Range is our that our quality is simply Deluxe, and is way above anything offered on the Internet, or in any Garden Centre and Log Cabin outlet or other Log Cabin manufacturer.

Many companies on the web scream loudly that you cannot buy better!

Well! Now you can!

Have you noticed as you trawl through the Internet, that most of the log cabins are manufactured using the same techniques?

We ourselves offer this same manufacturing technique, as price is the factor here.

However what we have done is really look at how we can better our log cabins, how we can make them the best they can be, a Deluxe Range, that can be offered under our standard pricing structure.

DELUXE WINDOWS AND DOORS FOR LOG CABINS

Investing heavily in new machinery, blades etc, meant we were able to shrink our residential standard window and door frames down from 110mm to 44mm, But! Still offering our quality, still offering strength, and still offering our guarantees!

One of the reasons why I write so many articles, blogs, about our new windows and doors, I think is to help the public understand that most log cabin bodies are simply the same, a 45mm log is a 45mm log.

The notching, molding and machining can vary differently, but!!! It is quite difficult to mess up wall logs! Actually, I have seen a few cabins where the machine operator must have fallen asleep or been drunk, as the word square could not have been associated with these cabins!

Some tell tale signs of lesser quality can be found when looking at the floor and roof board quality.

I hear there are some companies offering 19mm, 20mm thickness flooring, this is sadly inadequate, but these Log cabins are manufactured to be price driven, and are in all honesty (crap).

There are Dutch and German companies in name only that manufacture now in Poland and Estonia, their quality level is good, but their sales force spell bind the customers with grandeur and quality level’s that quite frankly are not there, and over charge greedily!

Log Cabins LV will utterly, completely, upset the Log Cabins industry in January, our quality and price will not just put the cat among the pigeons, it will show the public who is fleecing them, and who is not!!

More to follow!!!

Log Cabins LV The Only Choice!

Deluxe Quality Log Cabins LV -log cabins LV. logcabins

Looking through most websites you will notice that upgrading is the term used for up sale, which means spend more!

Log Cabins LV do not Up Sale, we do a Quality Standard!

Quality Standard Log Cabins are about as rare a Rocking Horse Pooh!

Purchasing a Quality Log Cabin is like walking in a minefield blind folded, as caution is needed through out the whole process.

When purchasing a Log cabin you will want to speak to an expert, and in this industry they are greatly in short supply.

As always I tend to put a dark cloud over the cabin market, but when you are speaking to Mr. Smith from company X who has never in his life walked in a Russian Forest, or heard a molder day after day, or smelt the timber fresh out of the kilns, or even understands slightly how a tree grows, then how is this man from company X can speak to you about the benefits of purchasing a log cabin.

Understanding the timber, from which you log cabin are manufactured, is with out doubt the most important part of the whole production of the cabin walls, roof and floor.

log cabins lv the number one for logcabins and timber buildings

amazing quality windows and doors for log cabins from logcabinslv.co.uk

Log Cabins are normally manufactured from either Pine or Spruce, depending on the time of year, pine is preferred by some mills, and spruce others, most bulk manufactures mixed species, which is OK if you a purchasing a cheap 19mm log cabin with an age expectancy of 3 years, otherwise stay clear of mixed species Log Cabins. Ask the company concerned if they mix, they must tell you as part of your rights as a consumer.

Next, windows and doors, yes I know I go on and on about windows and doors, but our Amazing Quality Deluxe log cabins windows and doors, that will come standard, in our new Deluxe Range coming in January 2016, will be the most amazing standard range of log cabins ever to be introduced to the public.

What makes a quality set of doors and windows is the timber used.

The ingredient is laminated quality joinery timber.

This stops the windows and especially doors from ever twisting, warping and staying true to form.

This kind of manufacturing comes under the heading of Residential Quality, and for this most companies charge anything from 800 pounds for doors, and 350 for windows. We also spray our windows, by machine, also our windows and doors are CE certified and are approved by BM Trada!

The BM Trada certification means Doors and Windows fulfill a number of critical functions in buildings, including protection from fire, intruders and the elements, all whilst continuing to operate effectively and with minimal maintenance.

Deluxe Log Cabins From LV

Log Cabins Deluxe Windows and doors

Quality Log Cabins, that is a key word so many companies use to advertise their cabins on the Internet.

But? Is the word “Quality” being misused?

There are so many ways to find out if the log cabin you are thinking of purchasing is high end a budget or a rip off completely on price!

Firstly, just because a log cabin is manufactured in Sweden, Finland or Germany, it does not mean the quality is higher from that of the Baltic’s or Russia.

In most cases, the products coming from the Baltic’s like windows and doors, and log cabins are actually better, as the price is lower, plus the timber is better, and not forgetting we do not have high taxes which means our pricing is normal, not inflated such as Sweden and Finland.

Most people believe that if the price is higher, then so is the quality, absolute rubbish!

Take for instance one company proclaiming to be German, who manufacturer in Poland and they do actually manufacture quite good Log cabins ( this I will agree on), but they sell them to their customers for an extortionate sum, and I mean that quite literally. I will be the first to say this,, they are greedy bastards!

If you take a normal 5m x 5m with standard normal double glazing etc, costing from most other companies would be around £5500 delivered in 44mm log thickness, then our German company will charge £2.500 more, because you are made to believe by their dealer outlets that the quality is so superior than other cabins, this is absolute rubbish.

I personally have spoke to one of the outlets, and it was almost like speaking to someone who was part of a cult! There are too many manufacturers giving advice to their dealers on how to extract high prices from the public, by using words such as, Top Quality, Eco, Durable, FSC, PEFC, Superior, Excellent, and the Best!

So!!!! How can you tell the Crap from the Quality?

Over the years, we have been able to spot companies that are here today and gone tomorrow, we are also able to spot a quality log cabin from that of the Bulk market that litters our market and the gardens of Europe.

Firstly, if a log cabin is worth its salts, it will have only quality windows and doors, yes, I am harping on again about the windows and doors, but they are the most important part of the cabin. Moreover, they must be standard, not an upgrade!

Our Windows and Doors on our new Range of Deluxe Log Cabins are not just absolutely amazing, they are truly the best windows and doors in the industry, and they are fantastic for the price. Also we are the only company that offers them standard now on a Garden Range.

I am sure you have done lots of calling around asking different companies about quality and what you get for the price.

Most will try their hardest to up sell to you and say that what they are offering is so much cheaper than everyone else for the price, but when you actually do the research you will find that their quality is on par to 99.9% of the other companies, and that you are actually being sold a pack of lies and not a pack of quality timber.

So Windows and Doors as we see are the most important part of a cabin, well actually the most important part of the cabin is the roof, but as we use the largest roof Purlins and thick roof boars in the business I am not too worried our roofs will come falling down any time yet, plus all our cabins walls have metal roods in them that come standard to tighten the construction down and make it stiff and secure, and that our 28mm floor board stops that springy bouncy effect it would have if the floor was 19mm which most companies tend to offer, (OK I am bragging),,, Yes windows and doors, are so important.

If you are thinking of running your business from a log cabin, and keeping it warm and dry through out the year, then sadly most log cabins, which are sold as standard log cabin, well 99.999% of the doors are not designed to keep heat in, or cold out!

If you look at most cabins, you will notice that part of the door, unless its fully glassed you will notice that it is made up of T&G timber boards, which are slotted together, now for a garden room, or a shed, it’s a cheap and great way of manufacturing the door.

We have been manufacturing this kind of door since we started 14 years ago, and for cost and ease of manufacturing, its a great way of keeping costs down, and sharing that low cost of construction with the public!

Our CEO has always grumbled about the windows and doors, he has always wanted to offer a top quality windows and doors, he used to shout from time to time that if only Logcabins.lv could offer a sprayed CE certified Window and Door set with every cabin for a sensible price, then hopefully the bulk manufacturers would have to sit up and listen stop wasting timber and precious resources and offer better!

This has been a burning desire of our CEO Kevin for years, and when we opened our New Production Line, Kevin decided then that all the New Deluxe Range from the log size of 45mm and above would have only have CE certified quality windows and fully insulated quality CE doors, and that we would be the first company to offer these as Standard not an expensive upgrade, and to top it off, we would offer them sprayed to the customers choice.

So to the question at the beginning, how can you know what a quality log cabin is?

Easy… CE certified argon filled double glazed unites in the windows and doors, that your supplier offers these as standard, that the door has an Oak Threshold, and that the tilt and turn mechanism on the windows is a of a residential quality, not push this, pull that and twist this, just to then open it.

You need 28mm flooring; large purlins that sit 90 degrees in the apex, but most of all you need quality through out and to top it off great pricing.

I think you can agree that for any company to compete against CE certified, BM Trada Certified Double Glazed Windows and Doors, Sprayed to any colour you want, and offered in a standard Range of Log Cabins at almost the same price as most rubbish offered on the web !

Yes! We are completely and utterly mad!

Or are we???

Log Cabins LV Deluxe Range 2016

quality log cabins, deluxe log cabins, log cabins, logcabin

Over the last 14 years log cabins have changed the way our gardens look, but are the log cabins offered good quality, how do you tell a great quality log cabin from a cheap and nasty massed produced one?

Simple if its not manufactured by us, its mass-produced.

In Jan 2016 Log Cabins LV will be offering our new Range of Deluxe Log Cabins.

Yes, I keep on harping on about the best quality windows and doors, and that we professionally spray them to any colour you wish!

Or that the manufacturing of these new deluxe log cabins are with out doubt top notch!

In addition, it has nothing to do with our timber quality; it’s the best of the best!

And that all the hardware is better than anything on a standard range of log cabins anywhere on the web!

What really makes these cabins amazing is the pricing!

There are German companies in the UK that sell very high quality log cabins, almost as good as ours but their pricing is ridiculously high.

If you want to purchase a log cabin that really does have the best windows and doors, engineered by skilled craftsman, and timber that really is a notch above the rest, then our Deluxe Range is worth waiting for.

2016 Deluxe Log Cabins LV

Most Log Cabins look the same, prices for most are the same, and the materials used for construction are the same, or that is what the cabin industry wants you to believe.

However, the difference between our New Range of Deluxe Log Cabins for 2016 and what is available at present on the web is very much Chalk and Cheese!

70% of the cabin quality is very much the windows and doors, these determine very much the longevity of the log cabins life and in most cases windows and doors for standard log cabins offered on the internet are sadly lacking.

Log Cabins LV has for many years offered quality windows and doors to our log cabins from 44mm and above, tilt and turn double glazed as standard.

Now we are upping the game even higher, pushing the industry to see if they can follow and at our pricing. We are now not just offering our standard quality double glazed windows and doors, tilt and turn, we are now offering a far superior range of windows and doors with our new Range Of Deluxe Log Cabins for 2016.

Log Cabins LV were the first to offer Garden Log Cabins into the UK market, over the years we have tried monthly, yearly to offer better designs, keeping pricing down, and improving quality.

Our Standard double-glazed windows and doors are fantastic, but there is always room for improvement, there is always room for standards to raise and still keep prices as low as possible,

There is not one Log Cabin Company in the UK that is offering Residential Certified CE Double glazed Windows and Doors. As always, we are the first!

Also and this is a First, we will spray paint professionally all our Deluxe Log Cabin Windows and Doors, to your choice of colour!

All our doors come with a quality FSC approved Oak Threshold.

Please have a look at the photos attached, as you will notice there are no unsightly screws or nail on the fascia boards, inside or out, the tilt and turn mechanism is not a cheap “push this pull that” it’s a residential system, just turn the handle the CE certified window will open, or tilt and turn.

All our windows and doors are hand made from joinery pine, quality level is second to none!

Please look closely at how the Double Glazed CE certified units are mastic into the window and doorframes, this kind of Quality Level is never seen in the Log Cabin Industry!

Our Deluxe Windows and Doors are as always priced sensibly and will last twice as long as a standard log cabin window or door!

If you are looking for quality, longevity and sensible pricing, then the Deluxe Range of Log Cabins from log cabins lv should be your first and only choice!
