What are the delivery timeframes?

As all of our products are handmade to your specification your order will take longer than a standard off the shelf mass manufactured product. All of our lead-times can be found on our Delivery Information page.

What product should I use to maintain my furniture?

We always recommend the Garden Furniture Oil from OSMO, we use the range of OSMO products on our own furniture and only believe in recommending any product we have personal knowledge of. We are a stockist of OSMO so you can add the oil to your order if you wish.

Some green marks occasionally appear after rain?

Minor tannin / resin bleed can occasionally occur and will usually fade with weathering, this is perfectly normal in pressure treated products. We would recommend that you can also wipe with a damp cloth or use a mild wood cleaner product. (spot test first in a discrete location)

What insulation can I put in my shepherd hut?

We use a 4″ x 2″ external framework for the walls and recommend using a 70mm insulation in the walls, 50mm insulation to the floor and 100mm insulation in the roof. Using the larger timbers for the frame means not only can you git more insulation in your frame is also significantly stronger than a plywood CNC cut kit. We use as standard PIR insulation in the floors and walls with a sheep wool or roll insulation for the roof.
