Residential Timber Buildings

Are you planning to purchase a residential timber building? Do you need planning?

These questions we are asked so many times a day, I just thought I would write a quick blog to help those that don’t know.

If you are looking to put a cabin in your back garden to live in, or rent out, you will need planning, if you are looking to use the cabin, timber frame room, as a bedroom for your mother to live in, then that’s fine, as long as it’s under all other development rules, i.e under 30 sq metres, and under 2.5m tall if beside the boundary fence, wall.

No we have been told by numerous people that if you have just a shower room with toilet, the council will not jump on you, but if you add a toilet and a kitchen, they will.

We have been told its either one of other.

It’s always better to ask before you purchase a cabin and be told somewhere down the road you need planning, and to take down the cabin immediately.

You will need to have planning for anything over 30 sq meters which you intend to live in.

Full building regulations are needed for any dwelling.

There are so many people that try and get around this rule, and yes most council are greedy for cash and will charge you large sums of money for absolutely nothing, and most of the time they reject the project.

What’s the answer to this, vote in a council that will be more understanding to the government’s overcrowding policies and actually allow you to build.

Denmark and Sweden are far more understanding with its population, and understand that when you allow 3 to 4 million extra people into your living room, you need to open up the patio doors and start using the garden.

Our Micro Houses are actually a very cheap, and solid way to put some of the housing crisis to sleep, in Denmark, Sweden, Micro houses are now given dwelling status, and also have their own street address and number. And as a starter home make perfect sense.

Micro Housing or some kind of glulam structure which can offer solid foundation, great thermal values-properties and build qualities.

If you are looking for an amazing residential building , large or small, bespoke or a standard model, that really is top notch, please do not hesitate and give us a call or please send us an email.

Pioneer Log Cabins

Log cabins are largely constructed without the use of nails and as a result derive their stability from basic stacking, with only a few dowel joints for reinforcement.

This is simply because a log cabin tends to compress slightly because it settles, more than a couple of months or years.

Nails would soon be out of alignment and torn out. Given that most log cabins were not meant as permanent dwellings, not a lot of old log cabins still exist.

When English settlers started to go to America, they frequently constructed much more traditional houses and converted current log cabins to outbuildings to be utilised as animal shelters or sheds.

To produce their log cabins warmer and resistant to undesirable climate, settlers would fill the cracks among logs with mud or moss (referred to as daubing ) or sticks and rocks (known as chinking ). Fortunately, the insulating properties of wood tended to produce log cabins cozier than wooden huts covered with animal skins.

Most pioneer log cabins were made with basic round logs.

Nowadays, modern day log houses are constructed with hand-worked – called hewn – logs that fit collectively far more securely than straightforward round logs.

Although no historic log cabins survived within Philadelphia’s city limits, a much more recent instance is tucked into the neighborhood of Northern Liberties, north of Center City.

In 1985, artist Jeff Thomas constructed a two-story log house from logs and mortar on four vacant lots. Inspired by the “back-to-the-land” movements in the 1970s, it became a much-loved novelty in Philadelphia’s contemporary urban landscape, continuing a kind of rustic but comfy housing initial introduced to America within the Philadelphia region.

Historians believe log cabins may have gotten their begin in Northern Europe and Scandinavia .

When these peoples started to settle the Americas, they brought their traditions of building log cabins with them.

The colonists who introduced log cabins for the American landscape employed their carpentry skills and information of building to operate forests of timber into hewn logs and stack them into shapes that would have already been recognizable back residence. In undertaking so, they expressed their hopes and ambitions for new lives in America. The log cabin was generally deemed a temporary structure, normally a single or one-and-a-half stories with a single room that may be divided into two.

As we all know, today with the availability of engineered Glulam timber, and quality CNC machinery now has turned the once ( out building) into a much sought after dwelling.

Trees- Timber – Siberian Larch

Some Exciting Facts about Trees- Timber.

Siberian Larch.

Pine.

Some facts..

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

Trees- Timber – Siberian Larch

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The life span of siberian larch can run in decades.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Log Cabin Windows and Doors.

Log Cabin Windows and Doors

Have you noticed that when you go from website to website all the log cabins for sale seem to have the same type of windows and doors?

We call it the Log Cabin Mass Bulk Super Store Syndrome.

When 99.9% of companies manufacture their log cabins, they also manufacture their own windows and doors.

Investment in quality CNC machinery is obviously the trick into having high quality windows and doors, which would obviously improve the quality of the log cabins which are sold on the web!

Windows and Doors are actually the most integral part of any cabin, as once they fail, your cabin is doomed.

As we all know log cabins shrink, and because of this, its quite difficult to purchase another set of windows and doors to fit your cabin after say 3 years.

Most log cabin windows and doors are manufactured quickly and very cheaply.

Superstore type retail outlets demand from their manufacturers low pricing.

There are many such outlets in the UK that they fight on pricing.

And 8 years ago, the prices of log cabins and the quality of log cabins hit rock bottom.

The Internet is flooded with mass produced Log Cabins, these cabins are not what one would say the best of quality.

However these cabins do have one redeeming factor, they are exceptionally cheap.

The next problem, how do you determine a quality log cabin from a mass produced one.

89% Log cabin companies literature state that their log cabins are fabulous, beyond approach, and are fitted with amazing windows and doors.

Some even lie and say they offer CE certified windows and doors when they truly do not.

This industry does not have governmental guidelines, which means that dishonesty goes unchallenged.

If you see any superstore type outlet offering you CE certified windows and doors and you know quite clearly they are not, please do us all a favor and report them to trading standards.

If you are set on purchasing a quality log cabin, please give us a call!

Camping Pods

Over the years, we have seen our High Quality Camping Pods lead all other designs in Design, Quality and price. Log Cabins LV is the number one Camping Pod Manufacturer.

When purchasing a camping pod, you need to understand what to look for and how longevity and quality of build is so incredibly important.

Too many of you out there with a small parcel of land are looking to earn an extra income, and believe that putting up anything (cheap pods) will do as long as the campers stay dry!

This is so wrong, and incredibly stupid. Just because it is made of timber, it does not mean it is a camping pod and fit for tourism, and where you can risk the lives of the public for financial gain.

Sadly we have had one death in the pod industry in the last 3 years, a couple were renting a camping pod on a campsite, the pod was not insulated correctly, and vented properly, they brought their BBQ grill into the pod, closed the door.

Sadly this was done to warm up their rented camping pod, and consequently, horrifyingly, one of them died because of course the pod was not sufficiently vented and also was not fitted with a carbon monoxide monitor, and they both suffered carbon monoxide poisoning.

Now, and I am not at all backing the manufacturer who manufactured this pod, but farmers, camping grounds, backpacking grounds far too often say, NO, to high insulation packages for camping pods just to save a few hundred pounds.

In addition, many campsites that have cheap pods fail to put up the correct signage, and regulations.

Our loyal customer base that purchase our camping pods, do everything they can to offer a fantastic experience, always demanding that the pods be their best.

Also most campsites that are owned by farmers, and who wish to boost their income in the summer months, seem not to want to purchase quality camping pods, but ones that will make do..

Holiday parks that understand health and safety, also look after their customers ever wish, to purchase better quality pods, as they are looking for a return on their investment in 2 years and not 6 months.

Yes I know it’s horses for courses, but when cutting corners, one must remember there is a penalty to pay. Moreover, it is never a good idea to play with public safety.

This tragic accident- mistake has also happened in a tent, which just goes to show.

There are dangers every where, so when offering accommodation to anyone, you need to make sure the accommodation is fit for purpose.

Also make sure that it is built to protect your customers, that warning signs, and a handbook are every where, and that the public know the do’s and don’ts immediately.

Our camping pods are very much fit for purpose, we do not hurry production, we tailor-make each and every pod to our customers wishes, each and every pod that rolls off our assembly line is absolutely perfect.

We stand by our superb quality, which is why we give such a long guarantee on each and every part of our camping pods structure.

Our Pods are equipped with CE, BM Trada certified windows and doors, which are designed to last many, many seasons, regardless how forceful your customer base may be.

The tiles are manufactured from composite of aluminum, which are fire proof and have a 40-year guarantee.

If you are interested in purchasing a camping pod that is fit for purpose, and will earn you many years of revenue, , please give us a call, or send us an email.

28 mm Log Cabins

Over many, many years I have stated more than once, and a few of you will say out there I have said it more than that, that 28mm log cabins are crap.

Then low and behold, 3 weeks ago I changed my mind. ( this came as a shock)..

A friend of mine contacted me and asked me to visit his production of new 28mm log cabins.

Sadly, all the 28mm log cabins I have ever come across normally manufactured in an old building, with old machines, using cheap timber, and have badly constructed windows and doors.

So with this in mind, I went to visit my friends mill, with a preconceived idea that what I would find would be rubbish.

I can honestly say, the timber was some of the best I have ever seen.

Northern Russian Pine, amazing quality, hardly any knots, planed and profiled (double tongue and grooved).

The windows and doors were good quality, and the finish was I think as good as our 45mm cabins.

The pricing on these units was incredible and I know that the UK market will eat them up and demand more.

I have waited nearly 14 years to find a manufacture that actually cares about how to produce a quality 28mm log cabin.

floating log cabins

How many of you own a lake, but the planners have said to you, no log cabins around it? Maybe a Floating Log cabins is your answer? Floating Homes.Floating Holiday Accommodation.

I would guess 70% of you have gone through all the planning, and have paid heavily for site plans, environmental studies etc, and still you’re told no. And never with a smile.

The great thing about lakes, rivers etc, is that there is little or no planning rules, unless you are in an area of natural beauty, or your lake has some unknown fish or dragonfly that needs protecting!

So how do you go about getting a Log Cabin to float on a river, lake, or estuary,?

Simple really, you attach it to super strong floats, and when I mean floats I mean professionally designed floats that keep the cabin 2 feet from the water surface.

These floats also are super at keeping the cabin extremely steady and from it bouncing around and bobbing up and down.

There are a lot of you out there that will think this is a great idea, and of course if planning is an issue and you’re not able to build the cabins on the river, lake, estuary bank, you can now float them… if you’re in a big city and you find a place to moore, you could consider using these as student digs, spreading the cost between four of you, over 3 years, and you will have the coolest student digs in the Uni!

Maybe you are first time buyer, and finding it impossible to get on the housing ladder, need to live near work, maybe their is a lake, or canal you can moor your new floating home?

Our Floating Log Cabins are not the only opinion, we are able to build also timber frame on the same floating platform, which ever takes your fancy, we can help.

Remember…..Mooring charges normally cost a lot less than rent!

In Germany, there are many companies that manufacturer floating cabins solely to sell to fishing lakes owners, who rent them out to either families who want to just sit in a middle of a lake, BBQ and do a small amount of fishing, relaxing, sauna, etc.

Also hardcore (serious)( anglers)( fisherman) who are looking to catch their trophy..

Whats great about these amazing floating homes, is that one planning permission is not needed, and that you can really go any size you want, and height.

If you would like more information about these amazing floating cabins, please send us an email or give us a call.

As always you saw it first here… Logcbains.LV

Camping Pods

When the camping pods were first introduced to the public they were very simple structures.

When I say simple, I mean, they were built simply, with cheap windows and doors, and the construction was , well! a few 28mm T&G boards, and cheap simple tiles.

Then we introduced our amazing, professionally well built, side entrance camping pod, and we took the market over night.

The feedback, we received, was more orders, we have not looked back since then.

So why are our camping pods, the best on the market? And why are our camping pods actually the cheapest?

LV camping Pods are the only camping pods that are fitted with quality CE approved hand made glulam wooden Trada Certified windows and doors! Painted to your choice of colour.

We are also the only pod manufacturer that actually manufactures pods that are true work horses, earning money in the season, and standing fast in the winter.

99% of our customers bespoke our camping pods to meet their park needs.

LV Camping Pods can be fully winterized, and also are available with ensuite facilities.

All our exceptional Pods are available in many different sizes, and configurations.

Our New 4m x 4.8m pod, which comes with toilet, shower sink (in a space you can swing a cat), and a full kitchen plus a bunk bed and bedroom which can take a queen size bed.

Log Cabin Holidays in the UK

Holiday companies more and more are now offering their clientele to stay in a rustic looking cabin style chalets.

This kind of off grid holiday lifestyle is becoming more and more popular, and with the eco badge stuck firmly to the brochure.

How many log cabins that are portrayed as really green and eco holiday are honestly eco and green.

Were they built to earn money, or save our planet?

Or are our old Mass Produced Awful BS3632 Caravan type buildings better?

When I look through holiday brochures, looking at the Log cabins offered out for rent, I see most of the time a glorified garden version.

And if one was to use an HD thermal Imaging Camera and scan the outside, you would see almost a bonfire effect looking back at you through the screen.

Sadly 99.9% of holiday log cabins in the UK are not designed to hold eco credentials.

Most lOg Cabins are designed to put beds in, and give the feeling of being in a log cabin environment.Log Cabin Holidays need to be greener.

Whats really amazing is that the largest bill of all and every holiday park is the electric bill.

Energy waste is mostly caused by insufficient insulation, a cheaply manufactured building, and zero foresight from the park owners.

I personally think holiday parks that are wasteful should be fined, also i believe it important that we do start looking at some kind of building regulation for holiday chalets.

We are now looking to supply a very large holiday park in the lake District, Cumbria with very eco log cabins, the lake district is a perfect place to showcase quality.

Sadly we have found that the lake district seems to have high amount of bulk superstore rubbish type residential log cabins.

Everywhere. single skin and from manufactures that do not offer quality, just low prices, and this is where the market fails.

With our Eco Twinskin Engineered Glulam Log cabins heading up there.

We are sure that the market will repel mass produced cabins and actually start to purchase cabins solely manufactured and designed for a true ECO Holiday experience.

Log Cabins 2017

Over the many years logcabinslv.co.uk have been designing log cabins and timber buildings for many years,

In those many years, we have seen a positive shift in the industry.

In 2001, we would say that most timber interlocking buildings-log cabins were bulk manufactured to sell, not last.

Quality levels were low, but then so was the pricing.

In 201 log cabins were almost 50% cheaper, yet the timber price, oil and standard of living is the same then as now!

Also in those days, it was OK to sell a 28mm log cabin, which was say 4m x 5m.

Now 28mm logs are used for a lot smaller cabins, and only a few companies still offer this shamefully thin log.

Manufacturing -Offering 28mm log cabins comes with responsibilities, yet few who offer these care if the buildings are fit for purpose.

Profit is the key factor.

Our under 2.5m log cabins, which includes our dutch barn roof range need no permission in the UK.but It is always best to check with your local authorities.

If you’re looking for a quality log cabin in say 45mm, then do not look at the bulk superstore type websites, as all you will find sadly is mass manufactured rubbish.

Our new Dutch Barn Range of log cabins are fantastic in design, and priced to sell, yet the level of manufacturing quality is second to none, we have been in the market longer than any other company in the UK, we live and breath timber buildings.

A few things you should look for when buying a log cabin. How long has the re-seller been in business,!

I am not saying that this is a bad thing, being a new dealer is good, but most dealers in the UK are just supplementing their income selling cabins with another business they may have, these type of companies often go bankrupt. so beware. We are able to offer cabins from 28mm to 380 mm glulam .

Log Cabins

Mobile Park Homes

Mobile Park Homes,

Making the final decision on whom to purchase your building- log cabin from, there are many things you need to take into consideration.

Firstly, you need to ask yourself is the company you are thinking of purchasing your building from are not up to the job!.

Sadly….So many people purchase buildings solely on price. And when the winter comes and the rains fall, their cabins leak and the timber twists and eventually gives up and splits, they always wish then, and only then that they had bought wisely, not miserly.

Mass Bulk Log Cabin manufacturing superstores wins each and every day because of this… Incredibly, low pricing, incredibly low quality.

But what if you are looking for something that is not a superstore type bulk manufactured building, what if you are looking for a Residential Timber Frame Quality 2 -3 or 4 bed lodge, who do you turn to? Do you turn to companies that shout that their buildings are built to the BS 3632, or do you look for a residential timber park home that actually comes to building regulations?

Are you looking for a quality timber frame building that will last the test of time?

I know a lot of you out there are saying, that the price of a park home manufactured to UK’s Building Residential Specification will be vastly more expensive, and guess what? You ,,,,Would be wrong!

Each and Every BS 3632 park home structure we have been asked to do a comparison on, size and height, against our build specification, we have been cheaper, and our specification to that of anything manufactured to BS 3632 is superbly better.

And this is where Log Cabins LV comes into its own, we design the future in Park Home Living.

We alone believe sadly that park Homes should not be manufactured to the BS 3632, this is what we call a scam, a way to take your money, and sell you a product that is worthless in less then 10 years, the only one actually earning is the park home.

There are some out there that actually believe this, and actually now are changing the way park homes should be manufactured, and those companies are now buying in, and offering their customer base just this, Park Homes, that are built to a incredibly high standard, in fact their park homes are now the best in the UK..

So we would like to give a massive shout out to Alex that has just ordered 200 of these type of buildings, that are not just to build regulations, Oh!!!! No!!!! Alex has gone the whole hog and built his whole park to being that of Passive. Yes Passive Park Homes, our dream buyer, someone who actually cares about the environment, cares about his customers investment, and has got a shock when he got the bill, I think is words were something like? Really, and his diamond white teeth through his ever presence smile could be seen in Timbuktu.

If you really want the best, and are fed up with so much bullshit! give US A CALL…

Quality Log Cabin Windows and Doors

What I would like to speak about tonight is not the normal stuff of looking at the bulk superstore type manufacturing cabins that blight our gardens and look like repetitive clones from one garden to another.

The windows and doors that fall apart after one season because of their shoddy construction and poor workmanship.

I want to speak about the lies told on websites that sell log cabins that go unnoticed.

Today there were a group of us on Skype chatting about windows and doors, and how companies tell absolute lies.

OK for instance, a company said, I quote, we manufacture the best windows and doors in the industry as a standard fit?

So then this company goes onto explain how their glass unit, that is not even CE certified, which is 4m x 6m x 4m is the best in the business.

What a load of rocking horse pooh, 14mm double glazed units, that are not even certified are the best the industry has to offer. Looks like the person that wrote that, never surfs the web of knows what his competition is offering.

To be honest I would not say logcabinslv are the competition, we are the leaders in this market, due to the fact we have been here longer than anyone, and have the largest range and largest design portfolio than anyone.

But we also offer better, and we offer it as standard.

Our Deluxe Range of Windows and Doors are CE certified, 24mm thick, and come sprayed to your choice of colour. No one offers that but us.

There are companies that claim to sell this, but actually its a bulk superstore lie, as only we offer this in the market for 44mm log cabins.

So how it we can, they can’t, I hear you ask, well it’s quite simple.

Log Cabin manufacturers, the Bulk trashy superstore kind of set ups manufacture in Bulk, and I mean mass bulk, Mass, go onto their websites and they will show you cabins piled high on top of one another, and who wants 20 tons of timber sat on their cabin before they get it? Seriously, do you?

Anyway, the reason these mills can not produce decent windows and doors is because of profit, and the way to get the profit margins high is pack them high, and manufacture the superstore way, which is cheap and cheerful.

And this is why windows and doors in 99.9% of log cabins are crap!

Also the manufacturing of windows and doors is important, and log cabin mills do not tend to invest in quality machinery for the manufacturing of windows and doors, its normally crude, and set up for volume not quality.

Moreover, this is where we are VERY different, our windows and doors are manufactured in a factory that solely manufactures windows and doors, also these mills are all certified manufacturing departments, CE certified, ISO and Trada.

Log Cabins LV do not just manufacture the best windows and doors that is a fact, we also do not bulk manufacture log cabins.

In today’s world of Eco-Renewable drumming by all governments across the EU to increase taxes on mr joe public, for planetary welfare, and our problem of mass house shortages, it is hard to believe that governments around Europe have not looked at manufacturing Glulam (laminated) log houses to relieve the house shortages which have been brought on to us by mass immigration and the selling off of government stocks, and not forgetting a birthrate that is quite simply horrifying.

Why is it that most governments say that they sponsor and are fully behind the eco vibe when they give hundreds of millions in tax relief to companies that build not just awful, but unsightly brick and block first time buyers homes, that are poorly insulated and have an absolutely bulk mass produced superstore feel to them, that most first time buyers shy away from because aesthetics have fallen to the way side, and profit is put into first place.

We have heading to the Lake District (Cambria) some fantastic Engineered Glulam Log Lodges, that are not just up to full building regulations, they exceed them, yet the price for this kind of structure absolutely kills brick and block house prices dead!

Plus the aesthetics of this kind of structure truly does put brick buildings to shame,

plus the insulation value of this kind of build is so way ahead of conventional builds.

If you are first time buyers, have some land, planning permission, and you are on a tight budget, then a glulam construction could be what you are looking for.

An Engineered Glulam Laminated House is a super strong construction which will not just last the test of time, but will inspire you and all others to rethink what a eco home of the future can be.
