Factory Cabins Twin skin Log Cabins will bring years of delight due to its small footprint, but massive potential and manufactured by superior craftsmanship.
Adding a bathroom to an insulated log cabin twin skin, 44mm x 100mm x 44, is always a good idea for a variety of reasons. Firstly, it increases the value of the cabin, as it adds an extra amenity that potential buyers may be looking for. Secondly, it can be used to generate a passive income, particularly if the cabin is a two-room model, as it can be rented out as a holiday home or a long-term lodging. Lastly, it adds practicality to the cabin, making it more suitable for longer stays and providing a more comfortable living space.

Due to the different materials used in construction, tiny homes are not the
same as insulated double-skin log cabins. Cladding, panelling, and other
materials are frequently used in tiny houses to provide insulation and protection
from the weather. They are typically constructed with timber frames. Due to
their lower size and lack of need for the same structural calculations, tiny
homes do not have the same structural requirements as double-skin log cabins.
Due to their smaller size, as well as the materials and labour necessary for
their design and construction, tiny houses always cost more than log
cabins.
The issue with tiny houses, and sadly, there are issues, is that they are
constructed using a timber frame, if Factory Cabins were going to
manufacturer a Tiny House, we would make them to building regs, we would
manufacture them to TEK17 (The Norwegian building regulations, or Tek 17, are
known all around the world for their emphasis on highly insulated timber frame
construction. This type of building is incredibly energy efficient and is
becoming increasingly popular in all countries. It is also incredibly
eco-friendly and can even lower the amount of energy needed to keep a home
comfortable. The regulations are strict and highly enforced, making them a great
choice for anyone who wants to construct a high-quality and energy-efficient
home). Because most UK construction companies are arrogant and prefer to
treat customers unfairly (they are greedy), this type of timber building would
sadly cost you an arm and a leg. Because we don’t, we consistently receive
repeat business.
The difference is £1000 ex works per square metre our price, and in 2024 UK
companies were charging a whopping £1,750 up to £3,000 per sq. m.
and the building was not anywhere near as insulated or manufactured as
solidly.
This is easy to say, try and explain, but in reality, its hard to picture.
so if you think of a phone book and a piece of paper, the piece of paper sadly
does not have much in the way of strength compared to the phone book, and that’s
the difference between what you receive from us and what you don’t receive from
the UK-based building companies.
And that also applies to tiny houses; the quality of the strength is very
much an issue, and the quality of the build is also an issue; most will stick
build it in the back, so if it rains everything is wet, and if they have just
started, it means your tiny house is core wet to start with. Not a great start
and leads to lots of rot in the centre of the walls. And as we know, mould can
kill. Sadly, many people have fallen for this over the years, and it’s a massive
problem to get rid of. Now, a lot of house manufacturers in the UK do stick
build, that means your back garden is there factory work space, Say that’s ok
for timber to get a bit wet, well, that may be the case if they manufacture your
tiny house with cheap timber, but we use only the best KD C24, and it is unwise
to get KD which means Kiln Dried timber wet, its KD because it must last
minimum 100 years+ and C24 is a visual grade, that means its quality through
and through.
So, you have learned a lot in this blog about what a tiny house should be
manufactured from, only really, as you want it to last a long time and to be
very energy efficient.
BUT THEY COST!!!!!!
Twinskin Flat Packed Log Cabins are perfect for that extra-insulated building
in the garden, easy to get into the garden, and easy to assemble, and our
windows and doors are not some ghastly PVC or awful cheap put together in a
hurry affair , ours are superb quality manufactured from Joinery glue, which
means no cold bridging, 28mm glass, and all German hardware; they are simply
the best in the industry as a standard window, most companies would charge you £1000 a double door and 700 for a double window if you wanted them manufactured
As a matter of note, I designed the twin skin system and have
the first ever 44mm x 44mm with a 50mm gap in the garden, it’s a 3m x 2m dog
kennel! And that’s why we built the first; obviously, there were no windows or doors, but
it has 2 rooms.
Lots of people make the mistake in thinking that a dog goes into
his or her kennel and likes the cold air running over him or her all night, they
don’t; a dog needs to go into a two-room kennel with a heated floor for winter, where
they can go around the corner and then in the back, and because of the base, walls and
roof are insulated, the flooring is made from non-bug carpeting, and
the whole pent roof lifts off, so cleaning is easy if you have a good friend that
will help you lift it off, as it is insulated and has gutters attached, etc, but
Your best friend (dog) is as snug as a bug in a rug!
The Twinskin system is perfect for going up two stories, and it’s easy to
adjust the amount of insulation (foil back) you add to the Twin Skin Log Cabin.
we can increase the thickness of the logs and insulation, depending on what you
need, where you are, and what kind of conditions you want the cabin to cohabitate in.
in. It’s amazing to think that you can have 44mm x 44mm or 70mm x 70mm; we can even do 90mm x 90mm, which would make the walls 280mm thick, There is nothing that would blow that over, we would rod itif it’s needed to the concert base, and that’s the beauty of our twin skins.
We can also manufacture shutters for the windows and doors if you put them in
a holiday park surroundings and wanted to leave them over the winter empty, and
unattended, you can shutter them up, or if you’re on the Greek Islands,
your customers want to go to sleep; just shut the shutters and the sun disappears.
our Twinskin Insulated Log Cabins are so versatile and cost-effective.
Our DF Log Cabins Range , why is it so very special, Arrr…. there are hundreds of reasons let’s look at one.
The Price and Quality out beats every other cabin on the market to date.
Now I dare you to visit any website in the UK and put this ordinary DF Log Cabin of ours up against anyone else’s.
Now before we begin, I am not going to tell you what certain size timbers are used in our cabins our structural timbers, as I want you to do your homework and ask other companies, ask them also about how their windows and doors are made, also the thickness of the windows and doors, what material they use for their window and doors, and glass thickness, is it up to what standard etc. I am fed up with pushing this industry up the hill with new ideas and designs, we stopped designing last year as we have over 7000+ designs, most of which have been copied.
So back to what you ask the company you think is offering you a bargain, what thickness are their roof purlins as this shows the kind of KN value you can expect from your roof. They will not have this information at hand to tell you, and will tell you to call back, or talk you around this, they will then think your a difficult customer because you’re asking all the right questions, which to them are the wrong questions, and when and if you have further conversations with them, most of it is lies.
We answer so many peoples questions, about how to look after a cabins, how to make bases, what to look for etc, but we have decided from the beginning of next week we will give just the basics. We are now picking our customers, as there are so many customers asking for our Range of High End Cabins.
Always Pay with a Credit Card
This industry is full of cowboys and thieves, and to be honest, 99.9% sell crap against what we manufacturer, and our prices are fair and honest. Actually our prices for the quality of the log cabin we offer and timber frame buildings are actually below the market value,
So please remember this, you pick a log cabin from any website,, and it looks amazing, and the price is low, low means its cheaply made, nothing else, it’s not a bargain, it’s not a steal, it’s not a fantastic day for you to celebrate, as you are just about to be conned into buying a package of crap, you look at what you have bought and put it up against ours and you think amazing, the same..but cheaper.. a cabin such as ours in look, but not in any other way the same as ours, their timbers will be thinner, their timber will be fast grown baltic pine, cheap and rots very quickly, and will need a lot of looking after , the windows and doors are rubbish, furnished with chinese handles, locks, keys and hinges and we all know rust, and breakages will happen sooner rather than later with these, purlins are 50% smaller in cut, strength, durability, and the cabin will be just a cheaply manufactured charlatan copy , a mass produced shed, as these can not be called cabins.
Always pay with a credit card
These Log Cabin doors took us 8 months to design and manufacture, so they would last a minimum of 10 years. These are the best doors in the industry.
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.
Firstly thanks to our long term resellers in countries like Switzerland, who we have been offering our products to their loyal customers for more than 15 years, yesterday we sent 2 Pods and 2 extensions to a new campground that wanted the best.
Camping Pods are manufactured for the Public to enjoy new and exciting experiences so this means they must fall under many different criterias which means that they must be firstly ( safe) manufactured to certain levels of high quality, firstly the windows and doors must be manufactured with toughened glass, next, the roofing tiles must be made of rust proof material, but also act as an armadillo shell protecting the pod from mother nature.
Next the price, sadly the pricing has gone up a lot and I think if it goes up any further they will cease to be manufactured as they are on the limit of being not worth their price tag. I know most companies with make them cheaper by cutting out their guts, cheaper this and cheap that, but! that’s not what we do, ever, because if there were a fire , its a good change you would be in very serious problems.
if you do not manufacture your windows and doors from glulam timber, joinery timber, and you manufacturer them from normal log material, then the chance of them burning quickly is ten fold, that’s why all our windows and doors are manufactured using joinery timber. If you want to save money, then you would use solid timber. if you wanted to save money. then you would cut back on the thickness of the structure, and also cheap tiles, and thinner insulation. Basically cut the guts out.
FactoryCabins.co.uk does not do this, will never do this, ……..NO……..If a customer jumps on one of our resellers and asked them for a lower price and our reseller asks us, and of course they will say use cheaper this and cut that, and make this thinner and forget about the second hinge, use less mastic etc, in other words cut the quality out and sell the public rubbish… Not Us….
What we will not do, ever is what 99.9% of other companies will do. So the question is this, how do you tell, it’s easy ask them the glass thickness, is it toughened, where does the timber from, what moisture content is it, over 12% then they are quickening the drying process. which means the timber will twist. Also what’s very important, now i would say the worst timber to buy is Spruce, as it takes longer to dry, and the impregnation of it is harder, so its a win win for northern pine,and the mills will not want to use electric or gas, or off cuts to dry this spruce for 4 / 6 days, ( pine max 3/4 days) depending on the size of the kiln, about 100m3 which is normal. So questions now to ask when looking for a cabin, i know this started off talking about camping pods and finished on what to look for, I know doubt will get more awful disgusting reviews all over the place from companies in the industry, written by unhappy cabin company owners ( resellers) , or resellers of resellers, which is normal for me to get, not that I care, because if this blog helps you choose a cabin that will last more than 10 years, then we feel better.
I was asked to write a blog the other day telling everyone that 3 companies in one small part of Eire (Southern) had gone bust, owing many many many 1000’s of euros to their customers. Now it’s really easy to stop this from happening.
You can pay with your debit , credit card, that’s that. What you do then, if your willing to wait, is call your bank, tell them the company’s name and how much the deposit your paying, etc. The bank will give you advice if you need it. But they will tell you the best way to pay is with your card as you have insurance guarantees with each payment. The companies offering zero deposits are selling mass produced crap, which you normally can not bespoke, and sadly these companies play off your fear of getting Your deposit stolen, which is really , creating fear as a sales Technique, which I find is disgusting. Imagine this, some guy buys 10 of one size and 10 of another and and and. Then he says buy today delivery tomorrow, and he doubles his money and is gone in a heartbeat. That’s how most do it so beware.
Buying direct is always the best route of action, always. Our prices are better, we do not play games, we make the cabin, house, Pod on time, and more importantly you always pay us BY CREDIT-DEBIT CARD….
It’s like in every country we tell the public to pay our resellers by Debit-Credit Card, so once again please please pay by card, because if the guy/girl who your buying from possibly goes broke, then your not crying, making dramas for yourself and your sitting back , money back in your account, and your ordering it from another company! No tears no drama, if you just pay by Card!
Thanks for reading this and beware. who you buy from, and always by pay by credit – debit card..
New Pods on their way to a campsite somewhere in Switzerland.
Sadly there are as always more log cabin companies going bust and today we are speaking about Ireland, and its a bad day for the end customers, as we have been told there are as many as 3 just in Kilkenny. One in Particular owing many 1000’s and 1000’s. Now this would not be a problem in any way at all if the customer had paid by credit card, but they as always paid by cash, which is the dumbest thing you can do ever. I know this makes nothing better saying this, but I tell all my resellers to take deposits by credit cards, and the feed back I get is, that in Ireland especially the customers do not want to pay by credit card. Which is madness, OK here is how the cabin Industry Work, Simple.
The Reseller, Say Leon, calls us here at the factory and asks us if we would sell to his company our cabins, we then give him some of our designs, and they then start selling. Once they have sold a cabin, then its for the reseller, Leon to send us over the deposit for the cabin, once that is done, we then send over the plans, this is for him to take to the customer, and for them to say yes, he then signs the plans off, and then the cabin goes into production, we manufacture and you the customer would get it from the reseller in 7/8 weeks later. Once it is loaded on the truck, and we sign it off and the driver has acknowledged it is on the truck, its then stops being our property, and it is then the resellers. We do not pay for the trucking.
Now the trucking company will ship the cabin with out deposit, if they have done business with the Irish company previously and have-had a good relationship with said company. But If the cabin is put into storage, after say 2/3 months pass by and the reseller has not paid his bills, does not answer calls, emails etc, he will receive 3 emails from the shipping company, these emails demand payment with in ex days, they must pay for this cabin,, if they do not, then the shipping company is in its rights to sell the cabin and collect its money owed. I have heard of shipping companies selling the cabin just to retrieve their owed money! This is completely legal, and the problem is the only person that can take the cabin from the storage is a Judge or the Reseller ( we do not have address for customers of the resellers or any idea who owns what) , but even then its very difficult, as the cabin belongs to the shipper plus Reseller, and the dispute is between them, and not the customer who initially put the deposit down for the said cabin, and because the reseller will not tell the shipping company the owners name, they can not offer it to the customer who bought it off the Reseller. and by that time the person/persons do not believe anyone and call a lawyer, and if you contact the owner, they will only deal with the reseller even if you tell them the facts. Its madness, and we make it plain and simple once the cabin leaves the Factory its not our concern, unless something is wrong with the cabin, which there never is thankfully! These kind of problems only occur thankfully once every five-six years, and or when the economy starts to take a tumble, then people get desperate and do stupid things. None of our dealers ever started off just being untrustworthy! It happened because of a reason, and we are always the last to hear about it. But I think we are the only compnay , unlike all the others to have sacked 99.9% of our dealers in 2020 because of this problem, as we had experienced this in 2007/2008.
We believe we are the best of the best in this up and down industry because we do care, and we do help, but sadly we are only the manufacturer, if you buy from us, its all in our pocket, if you buy from a reseller, once its on the truck and signed for, the company you bought the cabin from is responsible.
WHAT STOPS ALL THIS MESS IS PAYING WITH A DEBIT -CREDIT CARD!
WE ONLY ACCEPT PAYMENTS THROUGH CREDIT, DEBIT CARDS
Buying Direct, is safer, cheaper, and takes a lot less time, we always have trucks moving, , from A to B, and because all the buildings on the trucks are are ours, we can do a drop , drop, drop, if you buy from a reseller, then things get tricky, or it seems that way now, as there is less sales, and most websites ( resellers) just tell lies after lies.
Below is a massive amount of different designs I personally have done over the years, there are many more 1000.s but heres a few to let you in on our world.
Please watch this video, it has hundreds of designs, Hundreds.
Super Energy Housing. Bespoke Designs Welcome…. Always. If you are looking for a quality timber frame building then do not hesitate to give us a call. And if you are looking for a quality twinskin log Cabin, or one of our unique KI cabins, which we designed, manufactured, and brought to market, sadly they have now been copied by everyone and his dog, and most sadly look like they were made by the Dog, OK i am being unkind, but their doors and windows are awful. And service normally is with out a smile. We laugh when we get your call, why because we love our job, product, you and obviously your reaction to use after its built.
We shit every where, in container to all round the world, and we love the feed backs we get,
Heres some videos…..
The reveal all video about log Cabins and Timber Buildings
This one is a must watch, as it shows and tells so much, about other companies and the lies that are told to you on a daily basis.
So you are fed up, and want to live the easy life away from man, his politics and all his greed, you have bought some land, its in the middle of no where, and all you have is the ability to get cold water.
So you need a cabin that will really tell mother nature to F off and no matter what she throws at you, you have the ability to ride through storms, and from mother nature get all the power you need to live comfortably, and not worry to much about anything else but what your going to eat.
So lets start, water, a massive Drum that collects water, and then you need a well water filtration system, and a solar panel array, plus a Helix wind turbine. And thats about that. Trouble is, everything costs a lot of money.
So we have decided to come up very soon with an off grid cabin with everything included, that means insulated window shutters, a very very strong insulated roof, this you can fill with many different products, some people use Rockwall, or Cork , bubble wrap, BUBBLE WRAP IS SERIOUSLY CHEAP and you can use so much of it, and remember that bubble wrap is inert.So excellent for insulation solutions.
We sell Log Cabins all over the world, check out our trust pilot and you will see the people that purchase our cabins are from many different countries, this is because we do a lot of off grid cabins, or 2 bed twinskin log cabins and help the locals get off grid power, and live a nice safe life.

OFF GRID LIVING TWIN SKIN LOG CABINS FACTORY CABINS
Today I decided to write this to help those that want to listen, and believe in the one voice in the industry that really does tell the truth, regardless of sale or no sale. Many of you are going to be fooled by prices, and this will attract you more than the actual cabin, which is what you are looking for in the first place. There is no such thing as a cheap log cabin, what there is now is a web full up with cabins that have had their guts cut completely out of them. So where our roof purlins are 45mm x 225mm, others companies will use 45 mm x 110mm, At the beginning it’s not going to cause too much of a problem, but after a year and your roof will begins to sag and they have gone bankrupt, and left you with false promises of 10 year guarantees, etc, your going to feel sick.
( Put it into a short version, they are selling you the look and not the strength , quality or value )
In 2001, we started selling log cabins into the UK, ( the first) we had to convince the public they were better than cheap, sheds, which they are and always will be, sheds are sadly a waste of money and timber, remember the material most sheds are manufactured from is crap, but if that material was cut a bit thicker, you could manufacture a better building, which would cost only slightly more but last 10 years 15 years longer if treated correctly. Reading terms and conditions is always sensible when sealing with a company whose prices are cheaper than everyone else, as normally you pay and then that’s that! Anyway getting back to 2007/2008 many of the big shed companies started buying from us, cabins, and introducing them to their customer base, we had a happy 3 years, and then every man and his dog started manufacturing cabins and copying most of the designs I had personally done, including the twinskin system and the clock house, but no one was or is as good as us, they are mostly just in it for the money, and when a recession turns up, they go broke, and with that I am bankrupt message goes your deposit, which is why I always say, PAY WITH A CARD!
Sadly the Irish , both sides of the border are deaf to this message, I have no clue why as AIB, and British Banks do not care , sadly they are not in touch with their customer base, just what you owe, and what they lend, if you have money with either they charge you to look after it, it’s disgusting. Politics is never to be written, but I believe in honesty and justice, also I believe that if a man comes to your house, and take a deposit, and then goes bankrupt, his house, car, land whatever, should be grabbed by the government and sold to reimburse those that were stolen from.
Now in the UK that’s never going to happen, as half of the Millionaires-Billionaires, would be poor men, and the people would be heard, the laws were set to make those of power , more powerful, and the working man to know his place. And the tradesman who wants to climb up onto the cart of Millionaires must there for play the same game, which is sadly go bankrupt and keep your deposits. Which is what they do. And what happens to them, Zero.
I was watching the news and I saw that the Cargo, Boat Line, P&O ferries sacked 800 staff illegally, and brought in cheap foreign workers, so why don’t we sake P&O ferries from the UK and bring in another boat line that does not break the law, P&O really were not punished. As they put peoples lives at risk by their actions by recruiting a staff of untrained crew, who have no legal right to be in the UK or our waters. Yet the government is weak and sad and just forgets about the British dignity. So where is this leading, I am highlighting how it is now, how the UK looks at bankruptcy and it’s not the same as it was say 20 years ago. This has a lot to do with our laws, and how WOKE our parliament has become. We have stopped being men, and now we are only a slight shadow of what wer were and our grandfathers were. When there was a wrong we marched on Parliament, Remember the iraq war, WMD’s tony blair and his crew, who are all still sat in parliament, nothing changes regarding breaking the law on bankruptcy because they are all at it themselves.
Thats why I say, PAY BY CARD, then the thieving scoundrels, will be held to account, because the banks hate to lose and will take the merchant holder to court, and they will put them in prison, and they will put the Police on them, so PAY BY CARD.
I know I go on and on,but soon this world has changed, and man’s manners have got lost, greed and dishonesty live at every corner of most of the mouths of most traders in this market, and crap that is sold is just unworthy of the payment you make.
Ready, this is written on a web site, And it’s all crap!
Special wall logs with double tongue for improved steadiness * all wall logs have double tongue and groove,
Floor boards 21 mm, floor joists 60/80 mm and roof beams with dimensions at least 80/160 mm. Floorboards minimum 28mm and Roof purlins always 45 mm x 220mm, floor joists are normally a bespoke size, depending on insulation wanted by customer. Our customer base is always bespoking.
Windows from glued timber (68 mm system), with double glass and rubber seals (Our Standard)
Tilt/turn hinges from a German manufacturer (Our Standard)
Double doors from laminated timber (cladded from both sides) (Our Standard)
NEW Tirolean joint (only 90 degrees corners are possible in this system) This type of log cut is not strong, it needs a metal rod of quite a large diameter and tightening monthly. Which means you need metal throughout the whole cabin through the walls, which is very costly.
We tried this with glulam Larch timber, which is far stiffer and 100X stronger than this timber shown, and it was a massive, costly mistake. It has zero in the way of strength. Plus if you notice the t&G is cut cheaply. Now you might ask yourself why i put this down,
There is a reason for this, its because this company wants you to waste your hard earned money on a New Product, it’s not new, the russians were making there barns in this style 100’s of years ago, then they went to the new way, why because Dovetail joints leak, they have actually no core strength. no I say this for buildings, and if you rod, and dowel and screw the logs together and you use this joint, fine, but the companies that sell this will not go to this length and that why its a con of a joint.
Whats do I know about Joint, look below, and then ask me again.
We can manufacture any kind of joint in the world, the machine we have is so sophisticated that it can make a cup from a 400mm x 400mm piece of Siberian Larch Glulam, or all the purlins for Lidl. Whichever is ordered. As you can see we manufacture lengths of timber possibly none of you could imaging could exist, check out these glulam lengths below…
Yep longggggg…
Anyway I have completely forgotten what I was talking about, trust, credit cards, going bust, running off with your credit cards, distrusting people who write rubbish.
I have people on a daily basis thank me for this blog as it puts the true light into the business, so my lasting thoughts to you from me, on this Sunday night are these, 99.9% of all the companies have been bust at least once, they all cut down the safety features of their cabins, in other words, same cabins in looks only half of the timber is used to manufacturing it now. Windows and doors, may look like my new ones, but none of them are, and as the founding father of this log cabin industry in the UK an Ireland I would say very confidently that no one has given more thought of designs, higher standards of build quality, and has kept prices as low as we have and 99% of all companies selling cabins in the UK are not worth even half of what they’re advertised for. When we first started manufacturing here in the Baltics it took us about four years to actually get everyone to understand the level we needed for the UK market and still we have to push each and every day to keep that level high. Otherwise the market from outside would be a mess there are companies that manufacture log Cabins and Timber Frame buildings that are absolutely rubbish and not even worth looking at but how do you tell ( Mr Customer) when every 3D image or 3-D video looks the same as everyone else’s, So you run to the show site where the best of the best cabins they have ever made are on display. It is never a good idea to go to a show site and get your head filled up with their lies, its always best to speak to one of their customers, and ask them how it all went, or maybe 5 customers or 10, this way you will have a honest review on who and what they pretend to be.
We have been here from the beginning, and honestly speaking 99% of this industry is full of conmen!
OK…. there is quality and there is Factory Cabins which has the highest quality regard on design, build and price. In todays life, there are lots of people that really want the best of the best, and it is a forgone conclusion that if you manufacture with the best materials and very highly skilled craftsman the outcome will be a product of intense beauty, to with stand mother nature and the years in front. Many people buy a log cabins or a Timber Frame Buildings due to aesthetically pleasing pictures, and 3d videos companies show case. We are very different, we design amazing houses, but we build superb timber frame buildings, as a drawing is never as good as the real thing!
This is exceptional quality as you can see, and with out fault, and where can you buy this from, Well, sadly only us, why? because we manufacture houses to the highest standard on the planet, and our skilled craftsman are the best of the best. Which really does mean……. we are the best and thats that!
I will say this till I am blue in the face, but no matter what country you are in, if the builder wants cash, always say to yourself this one question, does your boss in Tesco’s, of in the bank , or where ever you work pay your salary in cash, no he does it through the bank, and you do the same, and my personal recommendation is
ALWAYS REMEMBER PAY WITH A CREDIT CARD
Sadly I have seen too many self employed cabin sellers, resellers, in England and Ireland steal, and I mean they have no intension at all in ever giving you the cabin, they just steal. So my advice, is to speak to a minimum of 10 of their previous customers before giving them a penny, then pay them by card. That way your safe.
OK , so lets talk about whats what. Firstly, I have written on my blog so many times about cowboy buildings, thats in all the market, shed, cabins, houses, timber frame and brick, ((( UK))) you look for the solution to a problem you might have, which is normally space, and what happens you go to the Yellow pages and pic the one that they say is the best, you then have some guy comes round, and prices up your job, in the UK any kind of construction starts from ( not shed or log ) but Timber , Brick, Brick being the one that most people jump on, then deciding it will not help much when it comes to being quick, no fuss, or mess.
So, prices….
The cost of building a 2 bedroom house in the UK is anywhere between £187,625.00 to £281,437.00 the average size is FROM 60 SQ METERS TO 105 SQ METERS, depending. ( we are not talking about quality buildings, we are talking about the mass produced crap, which are generally called starter homes, thin walls, zero ( what we consider to be nothing) insulation and the cheapest double glazing the company can find).
Most Normal houses start with a price if completely detached about £220.000, and we are not talking about a quality, amazing , superb, etc. they are OK.. Building costs in the UK start from £1,950 per square metre.
56.16 SQ METER. And the starting price is , ready , FROM £239.995 56.17 Square Meters.
This is for seriously a cheap manufactured house. I could not find anywhere how they built this house and with what, what materials and quality of them. And the problem is, it’s bunched up with loads of other houses. Are they using graded timber, or just unseasoned knotting timber, are they using quality insulation or just cheap and cheerful low grade rock wool, or some cheap foil back??
Do they love what they do, or just your money! This question I ask everyone who does any work for me, be it the mechanic or my electrician. If its for the money only, then later, find someone new who really enjoys what he does.
There is Land to be found, and there is space, and you can get planning, and you can make your house far better, cheaper costs, and almost off grid if you know what you’re doing.
All I am saying is think before you start to spend loads of money on a house that costs loads of money to run…..
And, in 2022, a cost estimation for a house is anywhere between £1,750 and £3,000 per m2.
Now check this out……… This is a build regulation that is far surpass the UK build regulations, it makes a mockery of it.
The main requirements for TEK17 are low U-values of house constructions and airtightness of the structure.
Floor construction U-value – not more than 0,15 W/m2K
Outside wall – not more than 0,18 W/m2K
Roof – not more than 0,13 W/m2K
Windows and doors (with frame) – not more than 0,8 W/m2K
We can go higher on the U value, and not for a great deal more, But! You will loose some internal space of your unit.
This way Norwegian authorities push new buildings to be energy-efficient and this way the country is leading in the world according to high standards for buildings.
This is what you should be aiming for…. But can your builder A-afford to build this kind of building, given current price levels, yes, he could if he were us, even cheaper, and Factory means Factory, and the TEK 17 build reg is way out of most people’s dreams.
Not because its super expensive, but because people just go to the wrong people to purchase their dream home.
Firstly Credit Cards, they are perfect, always pay deposits, or whatever you buy with a card, your protected. I have said many times, that builders now are going broke, why? because they spend the profit, and keep the material cost of that month in their pocket, profit comes at the end, not beginning, remember that and you are always safe, that’s how a good business works, also work out a payment schedule, not done, not paid.
And as everything rises in price, daily, weekly, your builder’s price is gone, and a new one is to follow, or they go bust. So, what do you do…? Call us…
Last words today…. ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS PAY WITH A CREDIT CARD!!!!
Twin Skin Log Cabins 44mm x 100 x 44mm. yeah I know you have seen it all before, the best of the best and and, but seriously check out this video of my latest build, its seriously off the hook, (WHY?) I hear you ask, watch the video and then your questions are answered. There are many fraudsters out their, ( one reason we will not supply southern Ireland until they change the law , too many dealers stealing off the customers and shouting its a civil offence, even the Police know its messed up) but if the dealer plays it right he can steal and lie at will.
Which is why we sell direct, this way you get what you pay for, at the right price and at the quality level that will make you smile. We do not have missing bits, we have been here since 2001, yep we were robbed by many of the people who now shout their the best of the best in the UK, find out who has been bankrupt, and then ask yourself, do you trust this guy with your deposit.
To sell Log Cabins or Timber Buildings you have to love the product, as most people who call us are on the hunt, and they mostly have no fucking clue what is what and what they should pay for what they need, so they go to the first web sites and see ridiculously low priced, cheap, mass produced, shit, that will last if you are lucky 2 years until the water pours in.
We guarantee the cabin for 10 years, not just the timber, the building, and that includes our windows and doors and also the floor, roof, etc, please see our terms and conditions, extensive and very long, but in a nut shell , if you look after our cabins, your laughing. Do not trust people who say things like, arrr we use slow grown pine from Russia, LIARS, its impossible to buy now, but getting it from other countries that have the same kind of conditions for slow grown timber is easy to find if you just get off your lazy ass and look. And we looked years ago. So ours is slow grown, and good quality.
For Help……..Please send us an email, sales@factorycabins.co.uk or pic up your phone and call us …………0208 133 5164.. thanks for reading……. Sorry if swearing upsets you, but theft, lying and conning people upset us, we were the first to ever put cabins into the UK and Ireland, a lot claim this, but its all blar blar blar. And we like to keep this industry clean and fair, which is why we are hated… But who cares…… I sleep well!
In this video, I chat about a-lot, some might find it very boring, but others that really want to learn about this product log cabins and what to look for ( the crap and the good) , should watch this and keep going back to it, to remember that someone, me , spent some time showing you what is good and bad, and yes I think I am the best, but, I will loose money if I think what I am doing is right. I have unlike all the other companies sacked 90% of the dealers we had ( resellers) because their prices were crap, over pricing. If they are cheaper than Factory Cabins it means only one thing, the quality, is crap!
Next Video…..Drums beating,,,,,,,,,,,, the first ever side entrance Pods ever to be shipped to anyone ever….. So its history, and its had nearly 500.000 hits on you tube, not bad for one of our little little pods.

A few years back we took on a very large project, this project started with us building a Twin Skin 2 Bed Log Cabin so the owners could be on site while we built the main house and all the other building they wanted, while the owners built with us their dream home.
We then built the stable blocks, Pool area and other parts of the complex, which is now up for sale for 15.000.000, as you can see from the photos, Factory Cabins excels at everything we do, this was a direct sale, customer to us, if you want to get the best of the best, then always come direct, as direct is always the cheapest, safest way… Who makes better, actually no one for the price….
Cinema Room……….. Yep .. WOWWWWW… And the Spa, another WOWWWWWW. Equestrian Centre , coool eh! Tennis courts and so much much more.
This house has many amazing features, and as this is a huge house its heating system is a ground heat source pump, we have a specialist Martin, who’s company is top notch, so if your looking for a quality building please feel free to give us a call. Like I say always we are the BEST!
Question, which Log Cabin- Timber Frame Building company in the UK can beat this, or even come close, NONE, we love direct sales, why? Because our pricing is lower than the reseller, SADLY most resellers in the UK can not be trusted, most resellers add hundreds and thousands of pounds, to the product, and its not as if they do much, we have a few resellers in the UK, who we trust 100% and they charge normal business rates, but most resellers lie cheat and over charge.
If your looking for a complex like this, then please give us a call on.
Self Employed Leon Vlahovic, who is running around all of Southern Ireland claiming to be our reseller or part of our company, is not. This man is now under a fraud investigation; he calls himself Martin and other names; he is not to ever behanded money; he will steal your money and run away. He is a criminal and as we said, he now has a fraud case against him. If he owes you money, etc., please call the police, not a solicitor or lawyer, as there is a case now open on him for fraud.
This van is driven by a thief; he is not an LV reseller or dealer; he is not employed by us; he has never been employed by us; and he has no standing with LV Log Cabins in any way! Keep away from this guy completely.
Leon Vlahovic Let’s put this into easy words so everyone understands: he has and is conning so many people out of so much money; he is a thief; he is giving me a headache; and anyone who knows me knows that giving me a headache is dangerous. Leon, if you are reading this, you are now wanted by me, and I will track you down and have a few Lithuanians have words with you and your dishonesty, plus all that are involved with you, so every Lithuanian you meet, beware they are not my guys. You have stolen from a child who is terminally ill, off old people, and from so many victims, the police will do nothing but say its civil, so my friend, I am going to hunt you down and deal with you in the right manner.I hate thieves, and I told you when you started that if you want to be a reseller, you must be honest with everyone, including all members of the public. There must be no excessive pricing, no stealing, lying, or making promises you cannot keep, or there will be severe consequences. There are now consequences coming your way! If the police will do nothing, then we will.
I’m not threatening you; its a promise.
You are making LV Log Cabins, which has history and a fantastic reputation in the log cabin industry, dirty, and now you must and will pay for this.Get my logo off your fucking van, or my guys will use your face as a cleaning detergent. I am getting rude calls from snotty solicitors who are blaming me for your disgusting behaviour. This I can deal with, as we have no legal commitment to your customer, as our legal right stops, at our factory gate, when its loaded (the cabins) on to your trucks here in Lithuania, for your customer. Apart from the fact you were using without permission my logo, which is a civil offence, but what you have done to the victims children and old people, and lie and steal, is just so beyond comprehension. Now watch your back, as the animals are coming for you.
…….Leon, If you were here in Lithuania, I would have a dance around you.
You have no clue how disgusted I am with you and your behaviour!
Leon Vlahovic, the smiling, ugly, disgusting thief! Wanted!
Please send me the plans for the cabins, and we will manufacture them at the mill at our factory price. Nothing added.
To manufature Log Cabins its an art, you do not just trow timber in at one end, and a log cabin comes out the other, OK there are some companies who manufacturer bulk and it is throw in one end and what pops out the other is, well madness.
We Manufacture the best, we build to customers request, so everything you see in this video, , everything to light fixtures, wiring etc, was done to the way the customer asked. We are very proud of our quality, of course, and we are also very proud of our teams that put our buildings together, assembly is always the hard part. Many many years ago, we would sell, 10 to 20 truck each and every month of the same buildings, and they all were OK but they were nothing special, now we manufacture only what we want and for who we want, because to but a lot of love and care in a building, you must really take your time and do it correctly. This twinSkin, ( please remember we were the first ever to offer a twinskin log cabin in any form, and I was the first ever person in this industry to design, manufacture and sell this system, so I am quite proud that now everyone offers them, yes they copied, but I do not care, as it means that everyone has the ability to now be warm in the winter in their log cabins, however the windows and doors are something special in our cabins, there is no one offering these, and the reason for this is price, our are super expensive, but, the reasoning behind this is sound, the firth part of any cabin to give in is the doors, they always fall apart, check out the top 4 bulk manufacturers on google, and look at their doors and windows, utter crap! they will never show you an up close photos of them until they arrive at your door in a badly packed building, of them, because they are crap, but we do, because I am super proud
Yep….. WOW, I know everyone today had that response when we handed over the building to the customer, it was quite the celebration, these new offices were built in 2 weeks, and wired out, and fitted with kitchens and bathrooms, if your looking for that perfect office building, then please come to Factory Cabins, its ok manufacturing small pretty garden quality cabins, but we also manufacture the offices, schools and the like, and for money that will not kill your pocket, there is no reason to go to a reseller, , always come direct. Always pay with a credit card.
How do you massively insulated a quality log cabin properly? Well! after 20 odd years of doing it, 44mm, 70mm single skin log cabins are cold in the winter, a lot of people do not want a twinskin, as they are looking for the blaster board finish, more simplistic, version, more minimalist clean feeling, than log, cost is about the same, to twin skin, also twinskin offers a more sturdy building.
But some people want what they want, and we are the best, of the best and our log cabins are the best in the market todate.
Please call us on +44 208 133 5164
Please remember , we only ever accept credit card Payments……..
Insulation will help you keep the desired temperature in your Quality Factory Cabins Log Cabin all year round, protecting it, and you, against cold in winter and excess heat in summer. Insulation is also useful to reduce noise pollution. So scream and shout as much as you like, good for role playing, A well-insulated log cabin is very energy efficient and will need very little additional heating and cooling.
