Why Buy a Log Cabin?
The feeling of being in a place where you can pause, relax and get in touch with nature and the simplicity of life can be very rewarding. The good thing is, you don’t have to climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods to do this.
Sometimes, all you need is a garden building to give you this feeling – and you can never go wrong with a high-quality cabin! Not only can it provide you with a space for lazing and lounging in the warmer months, but it can also offer you an inviting and cosy environment during the colder seasons.

The Perks of Buying a Log Cabin from Garden Buildings Direct
Strong and Secure Tongue & Groove Log Cabins
Here at Garden Buildings Direct, we take pride in our quality buildings that are finished with Tongue & Groove panels, available in 28mm or 44mm wall thicknesses.
The panels interlock, creating a strong and secure board for the walls of the cabin, ensuring a sturdy structure which has been built to last. This also creates a smooth finish which further enhances the style and aesthetic of the log cabin.
If you opt for a log cabin with 44mm thickness, it guarantees to provide more warmth during the winter months, whilst offering further protection and a more secure structure. Nevertheless, all garden buildings made of T&G construction are sure to last longer.
Pressure Treatment Option
For ultimate protection and longevity, we recommend opting for pressure treatment. Here at Garden Buildings Direct, we offer both untreated and pressure-treated garden buildings.
Pressure treatment works by immersing timber into a tank. Air is removed to create a vacuum. Then, a solution is added which completely penetrates the wood.
A pressure-treated garden building can comfortably stand up against any harsh weather conditions while at the same time, extending its lifespan compared to its untreated counterpart. Therefore, pressure treatment can offer heaps of amazing benefits!
You’ll be left with a log cabin that is cost-effective. Thanks to reduced maintenance, you may even save money and time in the long run!
