Log Cabins -64-1

 

To those that are avid readers of my blog, please excuse my absence; I am sure you are all aware we are now at busy time, and putting paper to pen, or one finger typing and committing myself to thinking of something new to chat about is quite hard sometimes.

A few people have asked me why I slag the mass manufacturers off so much, as they are needed to satisfy the hordes that want a cheap log cabin to put up in the garden just to store away the garden furniture or the BBQ, or the trampoline after summer has gone.

Well my answer to that is, it’s a waste of timber, it’s a waste of money, and it’s covering up what could be a nice part of the lawn, plus who wants a cheap cabin for all the neighbors, friends to see when they come visiting or peering over the fence!

Log Cabins have been in the UK gardens now for almost 15 years, and in this time, we as a company have tried desperately to up the game, and manufacture a quality cabin at a good price.

There are amazing companies from Poland –Europe- Baltic’s, Scandinavia that manufacture superb quality log cabins, but the prices are sadly incredibly high.

And as everything is price driven, these amazing log cabins hardly ever see their way into a normal family garden.

So we are left with the bulk mass manufactured crap!

What we did was design a cabin range, the Deluxe Range, and offer everything we could, superb timber, superb manufacturing, superb windows and doors, topped of with a superb price.

We are now finding this range is blasting ahead, we had a few minor issues, one of which is that the doors in particular are manufactured to a very high standard, and I mean a high standard, but we had a complaint they were not aesthetic enough. We took this on board and have added some more trim, plus we have had to retrain our fitters, as most fitter run from job to job, and when in doubt nail the problem away, we have stopped this, and have shown our new fitting groups how to build a quality cabin, taking their time, and leaving the cabin erected and fit for purpose, and of course looking superb.

If you want to purchase a quality log cabin, and you are fed up with going to one supposedly log cabin super store after another selling the same as the last, and the same as the next one, then please speak to us, we have the largest range of log cabins in the world, we are able to bespoke and really offer a quality log cabin that does not cost the earth.

 

The photo attached is of one of our Deluxe Range log Cabins, the customer was so impressed with the quality of his cabin, he asked our guys if they would completely remodel his garden around it, ((about time))..

The cabin will last only as long as the windows and doors, these are their achilles heal, we have designed, manufactured, and offer certified residential type windows and doors in our New Deluxe Range of Cabins.

Quality Deluxe Log Cabins

 

deluxe log cabins 2016 59

 

( Thanks John for the Photos)

Seriously where are you going to find any log cabins which is fitted out as standard with windows and doors such as these.

I can answer that for you, ((No Where!))

Quality log cabins in the UK are as rare as Rocking Horse Pooh, and 99.9% who say that their cabins are the best value in the market, etc, are deluded.

LV has been designing log cabins and offering them to the public longer than anyone at present in the UK, we have seen so many companies come and go, and most of the time, the customers are the ones that suffer.

We have also over the years sacked our own dealers for either over charging, or just no offering the customers a quality service.

Sadly this industry has zero in the way of governance, and as a self regulating claims of quality are never actually confirmed, so we thought last year to design a range that is not just good, we would manufacture the best, of the best, Garden Cabins and offer them at sensible pricing!!

We hold the gauntlet out to any manufacture in the business to offer the same as us, to the same quality , with certified windows and doors, sprayed, and all the add on’s we offer at our pricing level, and we know they can’t and won’t!

If you are looking for a superb quality log cabin, please send us an email, or give us a call…

Our ethos as a company has always been to try to better our cabin quality year after year, but sadly, the general public are bombarded daily with cheap this and cheap that and images of cabins that look similar to ours, as most are a copy, so Mr Smith picks what he thinks is a great deal! 99.9% of the time it’s not though!

We are not a Log Cabin Superstore or a Bulk Cabin Manufacturer, we are a company that takes pride in producing a quality log cabin, and we take pride in the fact that we have decent honest reselling partners in the UK and Europe.

log cabins deluxe range 2016-4 6

Our Deluxe Range of Log Cabins are now only offered by only a few of our UK partners, and this is for a very good reason, it’s called retraining the fitting teams.

 

Our Deluxe Range is quite simply an engineering marvel, we have added everything possible to make these cabins be the best they can be, and this is where 99% of cabin fitters scratch their heads, and when in doubt, use a nail gun!

 

Sadly, we have seen this happen, and this is the reason we are now retraining all our fitters, and with this retraining comes a better built cabin, with an all in specification that truly does kick all other manufacturers into touch!

 

Thicker roof boards.

Certified Double glazed, tilt and Turn Spray Painted Windows and Double glazed insulated Doors.

Thicker Notched Roof Purlins.

Steel corner tightening rods as standard.

Winter Cut Timber.

Quality hardware.

And just so much more the list is endless.

Log Cabins

Ask yourself this very important question, why is it that all cabin companies that sell bulk manufactured log cabins, offer up grades?

I have tonight visited 20 log cabin websites.

And here are their high-lighted quotes on how they describe their cabins!

 

Largest Selection of buildings in the UK,

 

Well that’s a bare face lie, as we are the only company with over 4000 designs visible on any website on the planet, so if they lie about that, then can you really trust them to tell you the truth about anything at all?

 

Choose UK number 1 for log cabins

 

Another amazing claim, even we cannot claim to that! (He types smiling)

 

Admired 28mm Range of Log Cabins

 

This kind of quote would only come from a bulk manufacturer, who likes to take money from old people and the less informed. There is no such thing as an admired 28mm quality log cabin, they are and always will be, cheap, mass produced rubbish that have a shelf life of 3 years and then they rot, fall apart and are worthless!

So to anyone thinking of purchasing a 28mm log cabin, forget it, it is a waste of your hard earned money!

 

Largest selection of 44mm log cabins in the UK

 

Once again another amazing lie, so if you see this statement on any log cabin website, remember that log cabins LV has in fact the largest range of 44mm/45mm log cabins in the world!

 

These claims are rather stupid, and some what desperate..

 

The reality is that there are many good cabin companies in the UK, and there are many good resellers of log cabins in Europe.

 

If you are looking for a quality log cabin, then look for the companies not on page one of Google, but further back and look for the companies that don’t sell 28mm or 19mm cabins, as this is a massive giveaway that these sellers-manufacturers are selling mass manufactured rubbish!

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame

granny flats, timber frame garden buildings, quality log cabins

granny flats, log cabins, cabins, cabin, timber frame cabins

 

Timber Frame Cabins VS Log Cabins, what are the pros and cons.

So many people ask us what is the difference between timber frames and Log Cabins, and which build type is best for a garden granny flat to name one structure we are asked about very frequently.

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   809

The answer to this is quite simple, one is quite easy to put through building control and the other is not!

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   810

If you are looking for a granny flat in your back garden, most of the time price is the arguing factor, so most people look for log cabins, and then try their best at insulating them and turning them into some kind of residential unit, when sadly they are not even close to getting them to residential specification,.

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   811

This is really a no, no, as most log cabins sold to the public are designed for garden use, which means that the windows and doors are not residential quality, also the thermal value of a log cabin be it a single skin 70mm or a 90mm is not suitable for a cabin to live in full time.

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   813

Also trying to insulate this kind of single skin solid timber structure is quite difficult.

Actually, it’s near on impossible to do correctly as the timber walls, roof etc moves too much!

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   814

Twinskin log cabins made from solid timber, are also not a great idea to turn into a residential dwelling, in fact we tell all our dealers, or customers who enquire about twinskins that a solid 44mm x 44mm is not a residential unit, neither is a 70mm x 70mm.

 

The only kind of twin skin log cabin that we would put a thumbs up would be a glulam twinskin log cabin 80mm x 80mm and then only if inner wall is dove tailed to the outer wall, keeping cold bridging down to a minimum.

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   815

Glulam Twin Skins are not what we would call a cheap solution, aesthetically they are beautiful, they are incredibly robust and sturdy, and they will last for almost ever.

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   816

However, twinskin log cabins require quite a bit of work to get them to a full building regs and to get the certification of a residential full time dwelling.

 

Now timber frame buildings are on the other hand a piece of cake to get through planning.

Also unlike a brick house, they are easy to highly insulate and I mean highly insulate and make them low energy, low impact, housing.

I love timber frame buildings, as they are the future and they will become increasingly more sought after and common in the years to come.

 

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   817

If your have land, or a large garden, and you want to build a granny flat for less than 40.000 pounds, then a granny flat, flat pack unit in timber frame construction is the way to go, forget about putting your mother in a hodge podge building, give your mum-dad a building they will feel comfortable in.

A building that is fit for purpose and a building you could actually resell!

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   818

Yes I am sure some of you saw that resale word, well! Unlike logs or brick, and even sip panels, Timber frame is an easy one to take apart.

It can be manufactured from the off set to be taken apart.

And this means this new government tax on granny flats, just flew out the window.

Rather than knock them down, just take them apart, flat pack it, and sell it on!

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   819

I love our government; they are always trying to find a way of making dying a more miserable experience for those left behind.

 

OK..I must not get all political, I am told off enough at saying the country is full up, it is though!

 

Granny flats and timber frame go hand in hand. Now this is why Log Cabins LV are the company to choose to purchase your granny flat from.

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   820

We source the very best of the best timber, which you would never see in the UK, it would never be allowed to leave the Baltic’s, and the reason is, yes,,, you are going to be surprised at this…. we want the best first, and the rubbish can be sold to others. You see here in the Baltic’s, our forester’s look after the local companies, we do not sell our timber to the highest buyer; we make sure the local businesses get the first pick.

This is called looking after your economy; OK I will not talk about steel! This is also called making sure home produced products are better than anyone else. which of course means we get the edge in the market.

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   821Also this is the draw dropper, our prices are half that of the UK if you go by specifications. As C24 KD CE timber is only used in our timber frame, also we only fit our timber frame with Certified residential triple glazed windows and doors.

Not forgetting also our hand made certified windows and doors on all our buildings are BM Trada certified CE certified and come with triple glazed units as standard.

Moreover, timber frame  is as cheap as Glulam-Laminated twin skins per sq meter.

 

Log Cabins VS Timber Frame 2016   822

Our timber frame buildings come fully finished, they can be erected as quick as a log cabin, and they are so eco friendly, greenpeace members will give your house a hug daily!

I do not jest about the green credentials these building have they are so good for the environment, as all the timber is CE certified, forget about the profit making FSC culture, you need CE timber that comes from managed government forests, I hate any company that wants to add money to timber for profit! Only governments replant, not businesses.

 

As I live in a massive forest, and venture into them daily, take my word on that!

 

So if you are looking for a quality, low priced, eco alternative to a brick and block, or a log cabin granny flat, or maybe you have a bespoke design you would like us to look at, or you are interested in a house, or even garden office, then please give us a call and let us show you why Log Cabins LV is a great choice.

The Best Log Cabins in the UK

 

the best log cabins in the UK 30

How do you tell a quality log cabin from a mass produced log cabin?

It’s quite easy if you know what you’re looking for!

Firstly you need to look at the quality of the windows and doors, so many companies offer the same kind of bulk rubbish, and that is where we are so different.

 

If you look at the photo attached, the cabin is now on display on the Isle of Man, (it has not been totally finished, still needs roof covering and guttering plus finishing off) but you will notice that the door and window quality is not just amazing; it is so far above everything else, which is offered on the web! And this kind of quality comes standard with our deluxe range of log cabins.

 

We all know Quality costs, so before you try to compare our new range of deluxe log cabins against the rubbish that litters the web, please don’t, however we have looked at offering realistic pricing, and tried our hardest to make our deluxe cabins affordable even for Mr. Smith to house his pride and joy old matchless motor bike!

 

Our New Designed Deluxe Cabins are with out the best standard range of log cabins in the UK Europe market. And this is why!

 

We offer everything standard everyone else charges extra for! It’s that simple!

 

20mm roof boards….

28mm floor boards

Certified Quality Double Glazed Residential Windows and Doors,

Steel rods for strengthening and tightening-binding the log walls together.

These are never offered in 99.9% of cabins as drilling the logs takes time and most companies have old machines that are unable to drill with precision.

Our windows and doors are exceptional quality, if you look at the photo you will notice that the hinges are not the awful crap 99.9% cabins companies offer.

Our windows and doors are not a premium range, or even premiumplus as other companies call theirs, their windows and doors are a joke, sadly too many companies exaggerate and over embellish on their budget, cheap, awful products.

If you are truly looking for the best log cabins on the market, then there is only one choice, Log Cabins LV!

Timber Frame Residential Holiday Units

If you are looking for a manufacturer of timber buildings or Log Cabins that really understands concept of design and keeping to your budget, then Log Cabins LV is the company to speak to.

Over the years we have left a trail behind us of iconic garden building designs, the highest quality camping pods, our fully insulated timber frame houses and not forgetting our New Passive House Range that does not just conform, its setting its own standard others can’t reach in quality, or price.

Holiday Timber Frame Cabins 6.8m x 15.75m     860We are also able to offer glulam, timber frame solutions that really are quite out of the stratosphere, but that’s what we like to do, expand design and showing at the same time that in timber construction there really are no limits.

Holiday Timber Frame Cabins 6.8m x 15.75m     860Unlike any one is the industry we are able to offer so many different build types that all come up to the highest of quality, and our windows and doors that are certified by BM Trada, also unlike most companies we are able to offer a 20 year structural guarantee to our residential log cabins and timber frame buildings.

Holiday Timber Frame Cabins 6.8m x 15.75m     861

However, more than this is our concepts and designs.

We love to design a building that really does stir the imagination.

Holiday Timber Frame Cabins 6.8m x 15.75m     862We have so many, many companies come to us and ask if we can not just supply but also design them a concept that makes their holiday park stand out from the rest, this kind of project we absolutely thrive on, as it gives us the platform to show case where we think the market should go in insulation, eco and quality of design, but more importantly what the price tag should be.

 

Holiday Timber Frame Cabins 6.8m x 15.75m     863Not long ago we priced up a 100sqm timber frame cabin, one floor, larch clad, triple glazing that offered two bedrooms, lounge kitchen, two en-suits and a utility room, our price to trade was just say £70.000, the reseller in the UK was asking the end customer £130.000, and this is where we get angry! Because the customer expects a building worth £130,000 but the customer is only getting a building half the value in reality! This reseller is not reselling our products any more!

Holiday Timber Frame Cabins 6.8m x 15.75m     864

The sad thing about the UK for instance is the government’s objections to anything too way out there, sticking to a standard, 6.8m x 20m and 3.2m in height! This is of course if you are building to the awful New and improved, (don’t make me laugh) BS3632.

 

Holiday Timber Frame Cabins 6.8m x 15.75m     865A Timber Frame be it a house, or a residential park home should be manufactured to full building regulations,

Not the building regulation that is in force now, but the new one to come in 2020 December, as this new EU building regulation requirement will not just say your house is poorly made, it will say you must retrofit and bring to the New Standard before you are able to sell it. Big Brother At Work!

Today is a short blog about quality interlocking logs and crap!

I cannot for legal reasons tell you the company who’s video I took this from, but what I will say is that they are one of the largest in the UK.

As I always do I look through peoples advertising material, be it written or videos and see what lies they are telling the public and exposé it, for what it is, deceitfulness!

Sadly too many companies out there in internet land, believe that you the public are too thick to understand what quality is, so Mr Log Cabins LV is going to help you notice how to spot the bulk rubbish that sadly litters our market and gardens.

 

Here is a list of what makes a great garden log cabin.

 

Slow manufacturing production.

Skilled work force.

Winter cut slow grown Russian timber.(this is absolutely vital for longevity for a garden cabin).

Certified double glazed windows and doors.

Skilled machinists, sharp blades, and a quality finish.

Quality windows and door hardware.

Professionally spray painted windows and doors.

Oak thresholds on doors.

Metal tie rods for the walls.

And so much more.

 

And this should all be standard with every cabin.

Or it is with ours.

 

So today’s blog… I want to show two photos of a badly cut interlocking notch and a good one, one of them comes from a company in the UK that claims to be the best, and is actually selling rubbish.

And the other photo is how it should look.

Interlocking notches should be tight, and you should not be able see into the lock. We all make mistakes in this industry we are only human, but!! This is not a mistake it’s bad workmanship where profit rules, sadly not quality!

Twin Skin Residential Log Cabins

RESIDENTIAL TWINSKIN LOG CABINS

Residential Log Cabins

Residential Log Cabins

 

Over the years we have explained to our dealers about what is a residential log cabin and what is not, some of our dealers listen and others do not.

 

This email is to put you the public straight about what is considered a residential log cabin and what is not!

 

Residential Log Cabins 2016 9962Firstly, a twin skin 44mm x 44m log cabin is not a residential build, it was designed by us at the very beginning to be a 5m x 5m insulated garden office, we offered these garden offices with residential type windows and doors, and this log cabin was the bench mark for quality in insulated garden buildings.

 

But! Sadly this is where it all goes tits up, dealers started to offer our garden buildings as residential buildings, now we do not as a company offer any of our cabins as residential unless the dealer gives us a full set of architect drawings and structural calculations, which comply with local building regulations, we then cut to that.

 

This means if the architect had approved it as a twin skin it would be minimum 80mm x 80mm glulam logs, with a 150mm insulation, vapor barrier and the internal skin is dovetailed into the outer shell, this then keeps down on cold bridging and allows the two walls to move freely from one another, the heating of this would be under floor heating, the walls would be pegged on each and every layer, and metal bars would be used to tie the structure down, this is the only way a twinskin log cabin would pass building regulations.

Residential Log Cabins 2016 9963

Sadly too many companies use the word residential and do not know what the F— they are talking about. Its really annoying, but more than that its criminal.

 

As a company, we will sack our dealers and have done when they mislead the public, and most of the time this is done because of complete greed.

Residential Log Cabins 2016 9964

Any company that’s offering in the UK, Scotland, Northern or Southern Ireland a 44mm x 44mm twin skin as a residential or even the next best thing, to a residential log cabin, well they are lying!!!

Its impossible to get a 44mm x 44mm to residential specs.

Why?

OK….. The walls move too much, they are too thin, you cannot use thick steel rods to tie the buildings down, you cannot peg the walls and they will not pass structural calculations.

Our honest thoughts are that timber frame buildings are the perfect build type for residential cabins. They pass all structural calculations with ease, and as a build type they are quick and easy to assemble.

This is why we have such a huge range available. All our timber frame residential buildings are manufactured to building regulations and are fitted with certified windows and doors.

So if you are looking to purchase a quality residential log cabin, and really want to purchase it from the leading light in the industry then please give us a call.

Please go to any of the bulk manufacturers and just click on all the up grades, or try to get their buildings to our standard quality on our Deluxe Range and you will see that their pricing will be not just a little higher, but significantly more, some by many 1000’s.

Quality Log Cabins LV 2016

So today, we are going to talk about purlins and the reason why the positioning of them is so incredibly important in the apex.

So what is good purlin set up, and what is a bad set up?

 

The first question you must ask yourself is why so many companies manufactures the roofs wrongly.

This is sadly the case to at least 70% of all log cabins sold on the internet for garden use.

The roof purlins are designed to carry the weight of your roof, and to basically stop the roof from sagging and caving in.

Most log cabin manufacturers do not run under any kind of building regulations when it comes to manufacturing garden cabins, so it’s down to them to manufacturer them correctly, and sadly this is not seen as a must, so a cabin that is say 5m x 6m would have a roof area of around 36 sq meters taking in the pitch, and once you add the roof boards and waterproof membrane and shingles, you could be possibly looking at a roof which weighs in at 200 kilos, possible more, which is enough to seriously hurt, if not kill someone if it were to collapse.

I am not being dramatic in any way, as purlins should be notched into the apex, most are not, and purlins should sit in the apex at 90 degrees, most are not!

And because the government has to yet put any kind of building regulation into this industry apart from the fact that they are not allowed to be any larger than 30 sq meters, and no higher than 4m tall if 2 meters from the boundary, this problem will exists until there is a fatal injury!

But some of us already manufacturer correctly, and some of us have done from day one.

You see the reason why bulk manufacturers manufacturer their purlins this way is because of speed, price and also laziness, as by placing the purlin into the apex at 90 degree you must chamfer the top of each purlin to be flush with the roof boards, and this takes time, and costs, so its easier to just cut them in at 45 degree and then the roof board sits flush with the purlin.

But this means your cabin roof is only held up by 50% of the purlin thickness as Mr. Gravity cuts it in half because it is sat at 45 degrees.

So if you are looking for a log cabin that is manufactured correctly, by a company that cares about quality, then please pick Logcabins.lv.
