BASE AND WARRANTY

PREPARATION OF BASE.

We recommend that the base onto which your building will stand should be at least 75mm larger in each direction than the total floor size of the building.

• Actual floor area of the building: 1236mm x 654mm
• Total height clearance: 2161mm
• Roof size: 1424mm x 746mm

The chosen position in your garden for your building should be excavated to a depth of 75mm to allow a base of sand, onto which paving slabs can be evenly laid. You may also use an adjustable timber base or a concrete base. Whatever base you decide upon it must be level and firm.

Warranty.

10 Year anti-rot warranty subject to the following:

• The building must be raised so it is not in contact with any water retaining base surface (for example grass).
• This can be achieved using a timber, concrete or slab base.
• When using a concrete or slab base use damp proofing strips under the bearers.
• The building must have been completely treated and sealed immediately prior to assembly.
• The building must have been re-treated and re-sealed annually.

CARE, MAINTENANCE AND RECYCLING

THE 5 GOLDEN RULES OF CARE:

• Ensure your base is level and firm.
• Ensure the building is not sitting directly on the ground using damp proof membrane or the optional timber base.
• Ensure every piece of timber and surface, especially that is hidden upon assembly, is treated with a top quality wood preservative at least twice (before assembly). Turn the panels upside down whilst painting so the treatment runs into the seams.
• Garden buildings are not waterproof, therefore you must seal between all the panels with a silicone based sealant.

THE 6 GOLDEN RULES OF MAINTENANCE:

• Visually check for weather damage.
• Check and replace if necessary any silicone sealant if used on your building.
