Hi all, another post, and this one has a long story attached to it. We first started working with our client (Jackie) 4 years ago; she had 1001 questions and her desire to have the best log cabin she could afford. And she was going to save up because she said we manufactured the best, and she wanted the best!
What she wanted was a place where she could clean her pets and also chill out, watch TV, drink a cup of tea, with no loud noises, in her garden; all she wanted was peace!
What was very important was that it would hold all that Mother Nature could throw at it, as she is in the top end of Scotland, where the weather is one minute sunny then pouring down with rain.
Bespoke 4m x 7m 44mm x 44mm Twin Skin Log Cabin
Jackie only wanted one from our cabins, as she was sure that we sold the best, plus we could easily bespoke it to her needs. Jackie had also spoken to a few of our other customers and had asked them about the quality, etc. Also, we said please look around and then, if they are happy, come back. Jackie and her husband, Gerry, decided to visit every dealer in Aberdeenshire and the surrounding areas and check what else was available and what the pricing was on offer. They were looking for quality, and Jackie had read quite a lot of my blog. So she knew what’s what.
So here are some photos of their build. And the outcome.
So the concrete base went down, and as you all know, bad base, bad build. All flooring was impregnated and dampproofed.
Our internal doors for all our log cabins are superb quality.
All windows and doors are treated before they are put into place. Our windows and doors are manufactured from Joinery Glulam; we are not very keen on putting plastic, cheap windows and doors into our cabins (which are sold as an expensive upgrade) as we are able to manufacture the best joinery wooden ones, double-glazed tilt, and turn on our new CNC window and door line.
Bespoke 4m x 7m 44mm x 44mm Twin Skin Log Cabin
A lot of the mass-manufactured cabins may have an upgrade offered on their websites from their cheap, awful windows and doors, and then they offer plastic. The reason for this is obvious: they cannot manufacture quality. This is the first sign that what you are thinking of purchasing is mass-manufactured rubbish! The price is tempting, but the quality is poor!
Twin skins are perfect for all seasons, and as the first to manufacture these and design this system, I think we know what we are talking about!
We do not have missing bits, and that one thing for you is a blessing.
We use Swedish timber, which is now the best on the planet to manufacture your log cabins from? The Swedish know how to cut and prepare logs.
Bespoke 4m x 7m 44mm x 44mm Twin Skin Log Cabin
It’s really important to know what you are buying, who you are buying from, and always remember that purchasing your cabin from the best means your cabin will last you the test of time; cheap means a few years; our means 30 years plus.As long as you stick to our terms and conditions.
If it rains, you must always have a cover ready to put over the building; we do not want damage, you do not want damage, and if you listen to us if your doing a self-build, there are a few things you must have at hand. Jackie and Gerry listened to us, and that’s why their build was spot on in every sense. Plus Gerry did not screw the logs together, who in their right mind came up with this idea—madness, stupidity at the lowest level. The logs must settle, and if you screw them together, when they shrink, it leaves gaps—rather large gaps.

The great thing about twin skins is that you can hide all the wires in side the viod.
A small scaffolding tower is best to have at hand. Health and safety first…
Add a protective layer of water proof paint on the roof boards a very clever idea.
You must let this dry before you move forward.
Then… battens, insulation, and OSB.
And on top of that, a felt roof. Wow, not finished yet.
Then shingles! Yep. An all-weather log cabin… only from factory cabins.
Looks solid!! This cabin can be slept in in minus 30 easy!

Massivley insulated floor, base, and well done.. Superb!

Hi everyone, I apologise for not posting anything for a while; life is busy at the moment. So here is a quick post of a small but quality 44mm log cabin now residing in Jersey. Sadly, the customer had bought his first cabin from a mass producer, and with the first winter gales blew it over, so he contacted us and said, Could we supply him with a cabin that was suitable for his needs? Of course, we could.
Too many people buy cheap and get cheap, and as you can quite clearly see, even our smaller cabins leave an impression.
Beautiful windows and doors, hand made, from joinery glulam. Designed to last a lifetime, all our hardware is German quality.
As you can see, this utility building is perfect for storage plus a little office. What we are finding is that a lot of people are getting sucked into buying cheap now, but in a few years they will as always come to us and ask us if we can supply windows and doors as there’s 100% have fallen to bits. The answer to that is always NO, as our windows and doors are hand built for our cabins only, and one of the main reasons most cheap cabins are cheap is because the windows and doors they get with the cabin body are awful. All of ours come with double-glazed standard toughened glass.
You will also note that we use a lot of purlins to hold up the roof, just in case you want to put solar panels, insulation, or a heavy roof covering. or all combined.
This little 4m x 5m log cabin was assembled by the customer, and we think he did an amazing job. It sits on a concrete base that is treated with a rubber solution that we recommend that stops all moisture coming up through the base! Well done, Andy!!

Twinskin ones have become sought-after lately, all thanks to their unique design and plenty of benefits.
So, what makes them so special?
Twinskin log cabins, or, if you like, call them double-skin or twin-wall cabins, have an innovative construction with two separate walls.
This is a big jump from the usual one-wall affair in traditional log cabins. Here’s the best part: there’s an air cavity right between these walls acting as insulation!
That means superior thermal performance, making your cabin energy efficient. Let’s dig a bit deeper into how they’re built. You start by assembling two different walls with top-notch Swedish spruce logs. Why? The sturdiness and thermal characteristics of these logs ensure you get a solid structure that keeps cosy very well indeed.
Now remember the air cavity I mentioned earlier. Some sort of insulating material (perhaps mineral wool or foam) fits right in there, optimising thermal efficiency.
It’s probably clear by now that the high level of insulation is a major feather in the cap for Twinskin log cabins!
That little cavity does great work as a barrier against heat transfer – so it’ll keep your cabin cool during the summer and warm in the colder months without needing extra heating or cooling units around, thus saving energy.
The double-wall structure isn’t just for show – it multiplies durability too! These two walls divide up weight equally and battle external strains from wind to snow loads, ensuring longevity for your space.
Now onto another plus point: customisable designs! With extra insulation to play with, twin skin log cabins give you more freedom to play around durably with larger windows and doors without cutting down on energy efficiency, Flexible interior design options further add creative flexibility to how you want things done inside!
Surely this awesome level of insulation means energy efficiency is taken care of.
Absolutely right! Lower utility costs, less heat loss during the winter, and limited heat gain in the summer seasons mean the living conditions inside remain comforting while trimming down on environmental impact.
It’s a massive economic and ecological win!

This is where the idea of fabricating a dual-layered structure commonly known as a twin skin log cabin originated, spearheaded by our highly proficient carpenters and innovative design cohort. The fruit of our labour was the creation of the pioneering 5m x 5m twin skin abode, complete with an adjacent dog shelter, comprising two individual compartments, that remains within our possession to this day. “The dog kennel remains standing even after the passage of 23 years—a testament to its endurance—owing to the luxurious protection of yachting varnish we bestowed upon it—transforming it into a sturdy bastion against the relentless march of time.” Illuminating the developmental journey, we initially commenced with a 44mm x 44mm and a 57mm void; subsequent contemplation led us to ascertain that a 100mm void would be a more optimal dimension.

Superior Quality Log Cabins:
Defining Excellence
In today’s competitive market, the proliferation of substandard imitations has unfortunately diluted the essence of quality log cabins. Numerous manufacturers compromise on standards, opting for inferior materials such as 18-mm floor and roof panels alongside PVC windows and doors.

When it comes to building a insulated twin skin log cabins, it can be overwhelming to consider all the options available. You could choose traditional stick-built homes to prefabricated structures, the choices seem endless. However, there is a timeless option that has been gaining popularity in recent years: twin-skin log cabins. And the twin skin insulated system was designed and first manufactured by us. So yes your getting an original Twinskin, with all the benefits that go along with that! For example, the best windows and doors in the market as standard, the best construction techniques,
Twin-skin log cabins are traditional-style structures that are made of two layers of interlocking logs, providing a double-walled effect. This dual layer not only provides an extra layer of insulation but also creates a stunning aesthetic with the visible log exterior. To fully understand the appeal of twin-skin log cabins, let’s explore the many reasons why they are a popular choice for homeowners.
Strong and Durable Construction
One of the main reasons why twin-skin log cabins stand out among other options is their strong and durable construction. The logs used in these cabins are typically 70mm x 70mm and are manufactured from joinery glulam, a type of engineered wood product that is known for its strength and consistency. This combination of thick logs and strong glulam provides a sturdier structure compared to traditional stick-built homes.
Additionally, the two layers of logs in twin-skin cabins create a stronger wall system, providing better protection from the elements. Not only does this make the cabin more durable, but it also helps to prolong its lifespan.
High-Quality Double-Glazed Doors and Windows
Another advantage of twin-skin log cabins is their use of high-quality double-glazed doors and windows. These double-glazed units are made up of two layers of glass with a gap in between, creating an insulating barrier that helps to regulate the temperature inside the cabin. This not only makes the cabin more energy efficient but also helps to reduce noise from outside.
In addition, double glazing makes the cabin more secure, as it provides an extra layer of protection against break-ins. This added security is especially important for those who use their cabins as holiday homes or for extended periods of time.
Manufactured from Scott Pine
At the core of any good-quality log cabin lies the wood itself. In the case of twin-skin log cabins, the logs are made from Scott pine, a species known for its strength and durability. Scott pine has a slow growth rate, resulting in a denser and stronger wood compared to faster-growing species. This makes it an ideal choice for a long-lasting structure.
Furthermore, Scott pine is a sustainable option as it is grown in managed forests, ensuring that the materials used for your cabin are responsibly sourced.
28mm Floor and Double Roof
Twin-skin log cabins also come with a 28-mm floor and a double roof, providing even more insulation and protection from the elements. The floor is made up of sturdy and weather-resistant boards that are designed to withstand heavy foot traffic and support heavy furniture and appliances. This provides a solid foundation for the cabin and helps to prevent wear and tear over time.
The double roof, with its two layers of roofing materials, creates an extra layer of insulation to keep the interior of the cabin comfortable and dry. It also provides additional protection against harsh weather conditions, such as heavy rain and snow.
Amazing Value for Money
With all these features and benefits, one might assume that twin-skin log cabins would come with a hefty price tag. However, the truth is that they offer amazing value for money. Not only are they competitively priced compared to traditional stick-built homes, but they also provide better insulation and durability, resulting in potential cost savings in the long run.
Additionally, twin-skin log cabins are relatively easy to assemble, making them a great option for those looking to build their own home without the added costs of hiring contractors. They can also be easily customised to suit individual preferences and needs, making them a versatile and affordable option for any homeowner.
So, twin-skin log cabins in 70mm x 70mm with a 100mm void, double-glazed doors, and manufactured from joinery glulam are a top choice for those seeking a strong, durable, and energy-efficient log cabin. The use of Scott pine logs, a 28-mm floor, and a double roof further add to the value and appeal of these cabins. With their timeless beauty, affordability, and practicality, it’s no wonder that twin-skin log cabins are becoming a popular choice for homeowners.
I know this is going to sound blunt, but if you’re deposit is lost then sadly, the only person to blame is yourself. Factory Cabins and a lot of other good cabin manufacturers state that you should only purchase log cabins—timber buildings, camping pods, modular buildings, etc.—with a debit or credit card.
Television companies are looking to push this across, talking about bad dealers, unscrupulous traders, etc., but!! Sadly, this is a sensational way of getting people to watch their programme. It’s not an educational view on how not to lose your deposit, and not have heartache, how not to be stolen from, and how to pick the best company.
We have had rouge resellers before, and we stop supplying them immediately and inform the police immediately, however, in some countries, like Ireland, it is seen as a civil matter, and then the customer who lost their deposits must go through lawyers and and and, and in the end, it comes to huge bills, and very sadly, tears. But if they had paid with a credit/debit card, and you do not get what you paid for, then the bank would go after the company, and you would get your money back!
Chargeback , Visa do a chargeback, as do most card companies, and they help you resolve problems. This is very important to note.
Sadly, if you have paid with cash, or a bank transfer, unless the police can in any way prove that it was a criminal act, you have lost your money.
Then people start to scream and shout, and the TV companies come into play, which is great. However, the purpose of the TV show should be an educational one, and that is to tell the public about how to purchase. I have said this time and time and time again, and yet it falls on deaf ears.Why?? Because many resellers will offer discounts if you pay cash! It’s time to wake up. We accept orders from our resellers, and they must pay us through a credit card.
The industry has no rules, none, on how to take deposits, on how to build a cabin, on how to build a base, which is a shame, as their are companies in some countries that buy cabins from their manufacturers, and their manufacturers are just about profit, they are not told or taught, how to build a cabin, and you see them on Facebook and the like, and they are screwing the logs of the log cabin together, This is a no-no. Its actually insane, as the customer did get the cabin, it’s in his garden, looking great, but after 3 summers, it’s a mess, worthless, and dangerous. Do i have proof of this, Yes Before COVID, there were some amazing assembly teams out there, now 80% have gone., and now, we have beginners, and they do not understand logs, or how to assemble.and have I advised people not to do this? Yes, but the assembly teams do not care, they just want to get them up quick and take the money, which is always cash!
The industry is just the wild west, and there is no comeback for the customers. Thats why picking the right company is essential.
What annoys me more than anything, is that most people are going after price, and when you see a cheap log cabin, you think wow, and they send you a bill, You pay it through a bank transfer or cash, and what you get delivered is normally subpar! Then you want to send it back, but how do you do that if you have not paid with a debit or credit card, It’s very difficult.
Unknown facts, companies that sell 100’s of cheap cabins a month have returns of somewhere between 10% and 20%, and these returns are from people who used a credit/debit card, the rest of the people who did not pay with a credit/debit card, are stuck with what they bought. However, the companies will send out missing parts or broken parts, but, you could have to wait up to 28 days, so if you have already booked a fitting team, or are doing the assembly yourself, you are left with a cabin that’s incomplete, and you have drama, I have talked about this before, but it seems that no one listens.
I have written a more detailed blog below, explaining the reasons in detail.
As a manufacturer of many different types of structures , I have seen and heard of countless cases where deposits for log cabins have been stolen by shady dealers. It is a growing problem in the industry, and it is disheartening to see hardworking individuals lose their money and dreams of owning a log cabin to dishonest individuals.
Companies like mine, which have been in the business for years and have worked hard to build a good reputation, are often called upon by TV companies to speak about this issue. It is a sad reality that in today’s world, where technology makes everything more accessible, fraud is also prevalent.
The most common factor in these cases is the payment method. Many customers choose to pay through cash or bank transfers, which is a massive mistake when it comes to large deposits. I always advise my customers to use debit or credit cards as a form of payment, especially when dealing with large sums of money.
One might wonder, Why debit or credit cards? Well, let’s start with the most obvious reason: it is a safer option. Unlike cash, where once it’s gone, it’s gone, and bank transfers, which can be easily manipulated, debit and credit card transactions can be traced. In cases of fraud, the customer can report it to the bank, and in most cases, they will be protected by the bank’s fraud protection policies.
Another advantage of using cards for payments is that the customer’s personal and financial information is more secure. With cash payments, there is no record of the transaction, making it easier for dishonest individuals to take advantage of customers. Similarly, bank transfers require sharing personal and bank details, which can also be used for fraudulent activities.
On the other hand, debit and credit card transactions are carried out through secure channels, and the customer’s information is encrypted, protecting them from any potential fraud.
However, despite these advantages, many people, especially in Ireland, still do not heed this advice and end up paying log cabin dealers through cash or bank transfers. The most common reason for this is that they believe it is the only way to get a better deal. They assume that by paying in cash, they can avoid taxes or get a discount from the dealer.
While it is true that some dealers may offer discounts for cash payments, it is not worth the risk of losing a significant amount of money. Moreover, legitimate and reputable companies will not ask for cash payments and will offer safer and more secure payment options.
Furthermore, some customers may also choose to pay through bank transfers because they think it will be faster than card payments. However, with advancements in technology, card payments are now more efficient and often faster than bank transfers.
In some cases, customers may also face resistance from the cabin dealer when asking to pay through cards. This might be because the dealer is trying to avoid taxes or is not a legitimate business. In such instances, customers should always insist on using a secure payment method and be cautious of any dealer who refuses to accept card payments.
There have been cases where, even after losing their deposit to fraudulent dealers, customers choose to pay the remaining amount through cash or bank transfers, hoping to get their cabin. This is a massive pitfall that customers should avoid. If a deposit has been stolen, it is highly unlikely that the dealer can deliver on their promise, and the customer ends up losing even more money.
So as a log cabin manufacturer , I urge all customers to always pay for their purchases, especially large deposits, through debit or credit cards. It is the most secure and safest payment method, and it offers customers protection against fraud. It is also essential to research and choose reputable and legitimate dealers to avoid falling victim to fraud. By following these simple steps, customers can protect themselves from the heartache of losing their hard-earned money to dishonest individuals. Let’s make safe and secure payments a must when it comes to purchasing log cabins.
Twin skin log cabins, often referred to as double-wall or dual-wall log cabins, have gained significant popularity in recent years due to their enhanced durability, insulation properties, and customisable designs. These structures offer a unique blend of traditional charm and modern functionality, making them an attractive option for residential, commercial, and recreational purposes.

Best Practices for Constructing and Assembling Insulated Log Cabins
Introduction: Log cabins have a long history and are known for their durability, natural beauty, and timeless appeal. However, recent trends in the construction and assembly of log cabins have raised concerns about the use of external cladding, screwing logs together, and improper insulation practices. This report aims to highlight the importance of following best practices in constructing and assembling log cabins to ensure their structural integrity and longevity.
Importance of Traditional Log Cabin Construction: Traditional log cabin construction involves interlocking logs without the use of screws or nails. This method allows the logs to shrink naturally over time, which helps maintain the structural strength of the cabin. When logs are screwed together, this natural process is disrupted, leading to potential issues such as loss of structural strength and log movement.
Impact of External Cladding: External cladding, while commonly used in modern construction practices, is not suitable for log cabins. Adding vertical timber to the exterior of a log cabin and screwing it on can prevent the logs from shrinking properly. As logs naturally shrink over time, failure to allow for this movement can result in structural issues and compromise the overall integrity of the cabin.
Insulation Considerations: Proper insulation is essential for maintaining a comfortable indoor environment in a log cabin. However, improper insulation practices, such as adding plastic windows and doors, can hinder the natural movement of the logs. It is important to consult with experts to determine the best insulation methods that will not interfere with the natural shrinking process of the logs.
Assembly Practices: The assembly of a log cabin requires careful attention to detail and adherence to traditional construction methods. Assemblers should be knowledgeable about the unique characteristics of log cabins and follow best practices to ensure the structural integrity of the building. Cutting corners or rushing the assembly process can lead to long-term issues and compromise the quality of the cabin.
Recommendations for Log Cabin Construction: To ensure the longevity and structural integrity of a log cabin, it is recommended to follow these best practices:
1. Use interlocking logs without screws or nails to allow for natural shrinkage.
2. Avoid external cladding that can impede the movement of the logs.
3. Consult with experts to determine the best insulation methods that do not interfere with log movement.
4. Hire experienced assemblers who are familiar with traditional log cabin construction techniques.
5. Prioritize quality over speed in the assembly process to avoid long-term issues.
The construction and assembly of log cabins require careful consideration of traditional building methods and best practices.

Today I will explain why building a timber frame around an interlocking body is hopelessly foolish and is solely a money-making scam by unscrupulous builders and bodge artists who sell log cabins. A single-skin 44mm or 70mm log cabin, interlocked, is not intended to have an external, internal skin applied. Why? It is simple because it travels and shrinks, and once its movement is complete, it will move indefinitely, depending on the weather. Unfortunately, there are many uneducated people out there who only see pound signs when you approach them about an insulated cabin, and their response, in order to get more money from you, is that battening the external or interior walls is the best course of action for that perfect insulated house. Rubbish. Also, we see so many foolish, unskilled weekend builders; screw the logs together? What the —K? Who said fastening the log together with long screws was an excellent idea?
Too many cabin builders have too many ideas on how to build a log cabin, and the more films I see on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, the worse the cabins become. So, why do they put screws in? I believe it is because they don’t know what day it is, and what they’re smoking could be one of the reasons. You never screw an interlocking cabin together. I can hear you all asking why. Simply put, once you have completed the cabin, it will begin to shrink. This is a natural process that must not be hampered; otherwise, you will have major problems with your cabin very quickly. You are effectively preventing it from moving in any direction, including downward. In the summer, the logs will begin to shrink, leaving gaps in the walls, and if you are extremely unlucky, the entire cabin will be a perilous construction. You cannot screw each log together. Next, putting an external or internal frame around the cabin will be a nightmare after half a year; if it’s external, the inside dries out; the external is dealing with mother nature, so you have the pull on the fixings all year round and if your dumb fitting team has screwed all the logs together, your problems will be exponentially worse, potentially resulting in gaps opening in the walls. Windows and doors become loose, and, in the worst-case scenario, the roof becomes unstable. This is no joke. It is a fact. This is why I designed the twin skin system many years ago. I have designed and manufactured this system in many different ways, and the best is as it is now. The problem with using a dovetail joint for the internal wall to fix itself to the external wall within the cavity is that as the logs shrink, both internal and external shrink at different rates, and the internal log tends not to slide down the dovetail cut, causing problems. Unless you go with Glulam, which is twice, if not three times the price, the consequence is the same: difficulties. Before anyone asks me, yes, we screw on the roof boards and flooring, etc, but we do not fix the logs together; our interlocking joint is super strong and super water-proof. So, my twin skin design for an interlocking cabin of any size is the best way to manufacture the best insulated cabin; it is not screwed together, it moves freely, but it is strong and super safe; it is a great investment; we know how to manufacture and assemble it, and the result is a fantastic building at a fantastic price. I believe that what I built many years ago was the greatest approach to manufacturing a log cabin that is insulated in a variety of ways. We have the greatest windows and doors in the industry, and our pricing is fair. Consider a 90-square-meter building with 2 beds, a bathroom, a living room, a kitchen area, etc, with 340mm walls (70mm x 70mm) and a 200mm void for less than €45,000 ex works, complete with double-glazed windows and doors and toughened glass. It sounds amazing, and it is. Please send us an email.
What is there to say? This log cabins is a twinskin, that means it has two walls, not one, and in the void between the walls you can add all your insulation and wires, plus optic cabins, etc.
There is not a company in England or Ireland that could possibly offer you all of this and more at this price for this size of building. Impossible.
(OUR TWINSKIN LOG CABINS ARE NOT JUST THE BEST; THEY ARE THE BEST. (That IS A FACT; WE DESIGNED THE SYSTEM AND PROVIDE IT AT REASONABLE PRICES.)

Why are our twinskins the best? Possibly because we were the ones that invented this system, we have the best machines, CNC cutters, and craftsmen in the industry. We always have the desire to improve everything we put our minds to.
Sadly, the industry has now fallen on its knees as their is a shortage of certain materials in other countries, which is why you see companies selling 60mm cabins and not 44mm.
Do not be fooled when companies say you are getting a free upgrade to 60mm, which is what you will take, as it is priced into the cabin.
44mm is a difficult size log to find in countries where they mass produce log cabins. Due to Russian sanctions, if you want a 44mm, tell them to price a 44mm. You will see them saying 60mm is better and then the truth hopefully comes out.
The difference between the two can be in the hundreds of pounds; never get caught up in the (for free) part; nothing is for free.
So getting back to our Twin Skin log cabin (10m x 10 m), which has 3 bedrooms and is also priced Ex Works, that means here at the factory for €37.600, which for a double-walled cabin, which has amazing windows and doors, is a giveaway.
Features.
Amazing windows and doors and high-quality pine logs are the best for any building manufactured as a log cabin because they soak up the stain better than any other soft wood, making the impregnation successful. We do not cut the logs at the end to make them look like arrows. Companies that do this do it for a purpose, so when you have built your cabin and the logs start to twist, you cannot see it. Our logs do not twist, so we do not need to do this, and we keep the cabin honest-looking.

We thought we would show the difference between the OSB and the Godzilla Extrusion Board.
OSB BOARD
GODZILLA BOARD
The difference is stark, but the Godzilla board is 100x more dense, stronger, waterproof, and superior in every way.
THE NEXT GENERATION OF SIP PANELS, OUT WITH THE WEAK IN WITH THE STRONG.
Next-generation SIP panel with everything a wall, floor, or roof should have, including strength (the SIP panel’s structural component is finally here).
Here’s a detailed look at why the construction industry should prioritise our new (patent-pending) Godzilla Board above all else.
Godzilla board is ideal because it is waterproof, extremely sturdy, and will never rot; termites and other small pests avoid it. Our first notion was to build rail sleepers out of it, but we decided to broaden our scope and provide this product to housing, offices, extensions, all manufacturers of timber frames, park homes, and even excellent sheds. It is the ideal answer to the NET ZERO MARKET AND TINY HOMES. And we are the only ones who have it.
Manufacturing hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin involves mixing wood particles with a polyurethane resin mixture and then compressing the mixture into a board shape.
The wood particles are first treated with a hydrophobic (water-repelling) preservative solution, which helps to protect the wood from water damage and decay.
The preservative also helps to make the wood particles more resistant to moisture, which can cause swelling and warping over time. Next, the treated wood particles are combined with a polyurethane resin mixture.
Polyurethane is a strong and durable plastic that is often used in construction materials.
The resin mixture is typically composed of polyols (long-chain organic molecules) and isocyanates (chemical compounds derived from hydrocarbon sources, making this a true super board for many construction uses.
The combination of the hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and the polyurethane resin creates a strong and durable material that is resistant to moisture, rot, and insects.
The resin also helps to bind the wood particles together, increasing their structural strength. Compared to other types of boards, those made from hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin are much stronger because the wood particles are treated with preservatives that help prevent water damage and decay.
In addition, the use of a strong and durable plastic resin like polyurethane also adds to the overall strength and durability of the material. This makes these boards the most sought-after choice for outdoor structures and construction projects where strength and durability are essential.
The new building board on the block is hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board).
Cement board, wood birch plywood, and OSB3-4 are all common building materials with a variety of applications.
However, as technology improves, a new product, the Godzilla Board, has hit the market that outperforms these old materials in terms of durability and strength.
Hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) is a revolutionary material made of hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin.
This combination produces a product that is not only extremely durable but also insect and termite resistant.
Hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) are often employed in roofing applications. Cement boards have long been used as a roofing material due to their strength and fire resistance. Rhino Board, on the other hand, has several notable advantages over cement boards and OSB3/4.
For starters, hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) are substantially lighter in weight than cement boards, making installation easier and faster. This is especially useful in large-scale roofing projects where time and personnel are limited.
Furthermore, due of its excellent thermal insulation properties, hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) is an energy-efficient roofing material. The polyurethane resin used in its production has a low thermal conductivity, which means it can efficiently reduce heat transfer while maintaining the interior temperature of the structure. This not only saves energy but also makes the building more comfortable to live in.
Another significant advantage of hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) is its pest and termite resistance. Traditional wood-based materials are prone to insect and termite infestation, which can jeopardise a building’s structural integrity. Rhino Board, on the other hand, is preservative-treated to prevent pests and termites, ensuring long-term durability.
Hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) are also ideal materials to produce structurally insulated panels (SIPs). SIPs are high-performance building panels composed of an insulating foam core sandwiched between two structural faces. When hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) are used as the facing material for SIPs, a strong, long-lasting panel that is good at keeping heat in is made.
In terms of sustainability, hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) are environmentally advantageous products. The use of hydrophobic preservatives minimises the need for toxic chemicals, making it safe for both people and the environment.
Finally, hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) is a new product on the market that has various advantages over traditional materials such as cement board, wood birch plywood, and OSB 3-4. Its hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin make it an exceptionally durable waterproof, bug-proof, and termite-proof material ideal for roofing, SIP fabrication, and other interior uses. With its multiple benefits, hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) is a game changer in the construction industry, set to transform the way we think about building materials.
The reasons behind the hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) is twofold. First, the term SIP panel stands for Structural Insulated Panel, and the structural element is a point of controversy.
Reasons why we believe OSB is not the best board for SIP Panel building
It is not moisture-proof; OSB should be kept dry and does not perform well when wet for a lengthy period of time. Weaker throughout the breadth: When compared to a regular plywood board, OSB has less stiffness across the panel. Unprotected OSB edges are easily damaged, especially during transit and installation.
Next, In general, hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) offer various advantages over wood birch plywood.
Among these benefits are:
1. Water resistance: Hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) are meant to be very water-resistant. This implies they are less prone to absorb water or be damaged by moisture exposure. In contrast, normal wood birch plywood has not been treated for water resistance and is more prone to water damage.
2. Durability: The combination of preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin produces a highly durable material that can endure wear and tear, impact, and other forms of physical damage better than wood birch plywood. This makes it a better alternative for projects requiring a high level of toughness and resilience, such as outdoor furniture or building materials.
3. Rot and decay resistance: The preservative treatment applied to the wood particles in hydrophobic boards also helps to protect them against rot and decay caused by fungi and other bacteria. This makes the boards a better choice for usage in damp or humid locations, where wood birch plywood may decay over time.
4. Dimensional stability: When compared to wood birch plywood, hydrophobic boards are less likely to shrink, warp, or swell owing to temperature or humidity fluctuations. This greater dimensional stability makes the boards easier to deal with and less likely to break or split over time.
5. Environmentally friendly: Hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles are often created from sustainably sourced wood; our boards are FSC certified; and the preservative used to treat them is non-toxic and environmentally friendly. This makes hydrophobic boards a more environmentally friendly choice than standard wood birch plywood or OSB, which may be treated with chemicals that are damaging to the environment.
Overall, a hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particle and polyurethane resin board provides an exceptional variety of benefits, making it the preferred choice over wood birch plywood, OSB, in 90% of applications. These boards have increased water resistance, durability, rot resistance, dimensional stability, and environmental friendliness, making them a versatile and dependable material for a variety of projects and applications.
Our boards are expensive, but we can assure you that they are the best, will last the test of time and are worth the investment.
This hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particle and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) is a type of composite material that is specially designed to have enhanced water resistance and durability. It is made up of several chemical components, each playing a crucial role in the overall properties and performance of the board. Below is a detailed explanation of the chemical composition of this board:
1. Wood particles:
The main component of this board is wood particles, also known as wood chips or shavings. These are small pieces of wood that are obtained from various tree species, such as pine, fir, cedar, or spruce. all our timber is from renewable forest supply, and we have FSC certification. Wood particles are a renewable resource and are widely used in the manufacturing of wood-based composite materials. They provide the board with its structural strength and natural wood appearance.
2. Preservatives:
To enhance the longevity of the board, it is treated with preservatives to protect it from decay, fungi, and insects. The commonly used preservatives for wood include copper-based compounds, such as ACQ (alkaline copper quat) and CA (copper azole), and borate compounds. These preservatives penetrate deep into the wood particles and provide long-lasting protection against biological threats.
3. Hydrophobic agent:
A hydrophobic agent is added to the wood particles during the manufacturing process to make the board water-resistant. This agent forms a layer around the wood particles, repelling water and preventing it from entering the board. The hydrophobic agent also increases the strength and stability of the board, making it less prone to warping or swelling when exposed to moisture.
4. Polyurethane resin:
The key ingredient in this board is polyurethane resin, which acts as a binder to hold the wood particles together. Polyols, a type of alcohol, and diisocyanates, a type of chemical compound, react to form this particular type of polymer. Polyurethane resins have excellent adhesion to wood and provide a strong bond between the wood particles, resulting in a durable and stable board.
5. Catalysts:
Catalysts are added to the polyurethane resin to accelerate the curing process. These chemicals initiate the chemical reaction between the polyols and diisocyanates, causing them to harden and form a strong bond. Catalysts are also responsible for controlling the rate of curing, ensuring that the polyurethane resin cures evenly.
6. Surfactants:
Surfactants, also known as surface-active agents, are added to the polyurethane resin to reduce surface tension and improve the flow of the resin into the wood particles. They also aid in the dispersion and adhesion of the resin, resulting in a more uniform and homogenous board.
7. Fillers:
Fillers, such as calcium carbonate and talc, are added to the resin to improve the mechanical strength and stiffness of the board. They also help to reduce the overall cost of the board as they are cheaper than the resin.
8. Colourants:
Colourants, such as pigments and dyes, are added to the resin to give the board a desired colour or to enhance its natural wood appearance. They also provide UV protection, preventing the board from fading or discolouring.
Overall, the combination of these chemicals and resins results in a hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) that is strong, durable, and resistant to water, decay, and pests. It is a versatile material that can be used for various applications, such as decking, fencing, sip panels, and structural boarding for housing.
People ask me, why I am against OSB in general for sip panel manufacturing or external use, because it’s not fit for purpose, only for pocket. If you want a board that is fit for purpose, then our new 2024 hydrophobic preservative-treated wood particles and polyurethane resin board (Godzilla Board) is perfect.
50 reasons why OSB IS INAPPROPRIATE for the job
1. Water Resistance: OSB 4, also known as oriented strand board, has poor water resistance due to its composition. The strands of wood used in its production are pressed tightly together with adhesive, but the edges of the strands are still exposed to moisture, causing the board to swell and weaken.

The questions you should ask yourself before reading this article.
First and foremost, why does the government promote the Residential Park Homes New Specification (BSI) BS 3632:2023, which is meant to lead up to a more Net Zero approach, which, when looking at it, doesn’t even slightly.
Who manufactures Net Zero Luxury Lodges and Park Homes? What should you be asking yourself?
The new BS 3632 U values are far from net zero, which is truly very sad for the consumer.
The British standard BS 3632:2023 specifies the construction of residential park houses for use as permanent residences. BSI developed the standard, which will supersede BS 3632:2015 (which will be phased out on September 30, 2024), and it went into effect on September 30, 2023.
In 2005, the standard was amended to guarantee that residential park dwellings are suitable for permanent living. The 2015 renovation included technology and construction method innovations, as well as significant enhancements to energy efficiency measures. These methods helped to reduce the environmental impact of residential park buildings.
As the United Kingdom strives for a more sustainable future, the 2023 update has gone even further in terms of technological orientation. Improved heat conduction through the outer envelope structure, as well as moisture control improvements, help to reduce the likelihood of interstitial condensation.
The Energy Efficiency
The new standard improves floor and wall U-values, making homes warmer and lowering energy expenditures. Standard thermostatic radiator valves are the best way to heat your home to the proper temperature, conserving energy and improving comfort! Improvements to ventilation
Trickle ventilation: Every room needs a permanently open vent to improve air quality and minimise condensation; wardrobe ventilation has grown. Roof ventilation—this section has been considerably rewritten to improve education and incorporate roof configurations not covered by the standard. The revised standard incorporates performance criteria for moisture control because energy efficiency has raised the risk of condensation infiltrating the home’s exterior. Enhanced Safety
Smoke and heat alarms must now be installed in each grade and category. All entrance doors must meet means of escape standards. Exterior Window and Door Safety: The new standard protects against window falls. In homes with steps, platforms, or high-level bunks, guidance has been added for improved protection. Internal doors now have a minimum clear opening width. Overall enhancements
The serial number will be marked in at least three places on homes. This worries me greatly, as I think the government is going to monopolise this industry and then inflate prices. There are a few who think BS 3632 is a government con.
Sound insulation: Testing has been improved to meet the normal range of the standard. Alternative and renewable energy systems. Owner’s manual: A condensation remark has been included in the manual to reduce risk. These upgrades have produced superior park houses and lodges with improved energy efficiency, safety, and quality.
OK, let’s look at this a different way. In the UK south east coastal towns, the cost of these new park home structures is comparable to that of a nice two-bedroom flat with sea views, which will increase in value, whereas the new BS3632 2023 Mobile Homes will lose £500 per month rather than gain. This is a massively contentious question that needs to be answered. Why is it that park homes lose so much equity?
This is the reality of the situation: you want a park home. It’s a dream to have a park home and to live with other retirees, so you go to a park of your choice, and they offer you the latest BS3632-2023 upgraded model, which obviously costs more now as it has the latest specification (which is obviously a selling point). However, the last time this was changed was in 2015, and now they have changed it again, 8 years later, so what is now considered a BS 3632 is not what you bought 8 years ago. So the depreciation on a 2015 model has just gone through the floor( in 9 months), and the reason I mention the floor to describe the depreciation is that the floor has gone from 0.35 U value to 0.26, which is huge, and the walls have also gone from 0.35 to 0.30, which may not seem like much to you, but it is a big difference to get the certification, especially if you have to meet all of the new construction requirements. I’m not sure how much it will cost to bring your park house up to code with a 2015 old BS 3632 renovation, but it will be pricey.
So, even if your investment in this new 2023 is jeopardised because the government will raise it again, what you must do is purchase your park home with a Net Zero tag, and this is where we can help you. We want to help you, and we want this horrible 1963 BS3632 law to be repealed forever.
And I believe the resellable value is jeopardised because, with the upturn of the new BS3632, knowing the market as we do, we know that most park home companies will push you to buy or get off site, so they can then bring on new units that are to the new BS3632 standard and earn more. The question is, when will this kind of behaviour stop? The answer to this is easy: when all the park homes and lodges are manufactured to Net Zero,. Net zero is when your building is super efficient.
the Park Home rises every X number of years, transforming yours into an Old BS 3632, which potential buyers will not be interested in. Park homes are only allowed to have relevant BS3632 homes.
We are reinventing eco-friendly living for the future with our opulent yet sustainable static houses and trailers.
A Green Revolution: BS 3632 2023 Establishes a New Standard The BS 3632 2023 has unquestionably lifted the bar in the field of high-end design. However, we still have a considerable distance to go towards achieving real net-zero energy.
Leading the way Values: New Standards and Creativity
Our mission revolves around innovation and the setting of new industry benchmarks. We wholeheartedly support the concept of net-zero living, which includes both static and mobile units. Let us venture into unknown territory, imagining a future in which your caravan not only fulfils but exceeds all environmental criteria, making a significant contribution to a sustainable and thriving earth for future generations.

We are pleased to introduce off-site manufactured timber frame construction, which is a showcase of the future of construction. The current change in the industry is directly attributable to off-site produced timber frame construction. The language that is employed in the field of timber construction causes a significant amount of confusion among a large number of individuals. Offsite Manufactured Timber Frame Elements, which is also widely referred to as prefabricated modular building, is our preferred method, and it stands out among the jargon that is being used. Nevertheless, how does this approach differ from the conventional method of building with post-and-beam construction equipment?
What distinguishes onsite timber frame elements from offsite timber frame elements?
Timber frame is the term used to describe a load-bearing structure that is built using hardwood studs as the primary structural component. Conversely, Offsite wood Frame Elements represent a major breakthrough because they entail a complete wall sandwich that combines the external and internal layers with the wood frame. This wall sandwich serves as the foundation for the entire structure. It is possible to save both time and money by employing this cutting-edge method for the construction of timber frames, which ultimately results in walls that are insulated and finished on the exterior.
Challenges that have traditionally been linked with timber frames
When it comes to traditional timber frame construction, there are a few issues that should be taken into consideration:
A Prolonged Amount of Time Spent Conducting Construction
The project has longer schedules because construction is typically completed stud by stud. This leads to the construction process taking longer.
Components of the Climate That Are Involved
Due to the fact that the weather conditions wreak havoc on the materials, it is probable that the general quality of the structure might suffer as a result.
Omissions in the Process of Delivering Matters
When forecasts are not accurate, they almost always result in either an excessive amount of material or an insufficient amount of material, which in turn leads to an increase in the amount of trash produced and the costs associated with transportation.
Issues that manifest themselves on-site
There is a chance that imperfections and unevenness will show up when cutting on-site using basic tools. On the other hand, there are additional costs connected with the utilisation of complex equipment.
There has been a delay in the results.
The entire result is not released until after a significant amount of effort has been made, which necessitates additional hours of work and financial resources for some revisions.
The building of timber frames off-site provides a number of desirable advantages.
Let us examine the elements of the Offsite Timber Frame method that could change as we proceed:
The Use of Accuracy in the Design
It is possible to build elaborate and one-of-a-kind designs because to the technology that is used in modern production. This ensures that aesthetics and functionality are brought together in a way that is harmonious.
To ensure both quality and precision, elements that are manufactured through controlled indoor manufacturing are painstakingly produced in an enclosed industrial environment. This ensures that the elements are of the highest possible standard.
Effective management of the materials that are available
Utilising advanced planning helps to reduce waste while simultaneously optimising product prices and improving overall cost-effectiveness. This is accomplished through the use of advanced planning.
Regarding the Factory’s Accuracy
The majority of the work that is completed is the responsibility of manufacturing facilities. In addition to other duties, this entails impregnating plasterboard or OSB and using Tyvek material for insulation, wind proofing, and vapour barriers.
In just three days, the walls can be built directly on the foundation using the Rapid Construction method; however, closing the roof takes about two weeks.
Adjustability of the Roof’s Layout and Design
In simpler roof designs, it is conceivable for elements to extend to roofing components. This would result in a significant reduction in the amount of time that is necessary for construction.
Beginning of Work Executed Within the Organisation
It is possible to begin construction on the interior of the building as soon as the exterior of the structure is shielded from the elements.
Despite their relatively light weight, Lightweight Strength Elements are incredibly durable. This ensures that the structural integrity of the structure is preserved without affecting the efficiency of the structure.
The quality standard can be met by buildings with net zero energy consumption and above.
In summary, the Offsite Timber Frame method is a great example of innovation that is changing the practises that construction companies engage in. By implementing initiatives such as Net Zero Buildings and tiny house programmes, they have the potential to exert their influence over the whole industry, which will ultimately lead to the adoption of new and improved quality and efficiency standards. In the future, construction with off-site timber frames is a depiction of the future, which is characterised by the combination of precision and innovation.

Now, let’s delve into the compelling reasons why it is fundamentally flawed to equate superior timber-frame net-zero buildings with their garden-variety counterparts. These distinctions encompass variations in construction techniques, materials, functionality, and overall value.
First and foremost, the materials employed in crafting superior timber frame net-zero buildings stand in stark contrast to those found in their garden-variety counterparts. Net-zero structures often utilize high-quality, sustainable materials. An exemplary instance is the meticulously selected and graded C24 wood, renowned for its durability and longevity. In contrast, garden-variety structures typically resort to unseasoned, low-quality wood bereft of any grading. The divergence in materials alone can significantly impact the quality and longevity of the final construction.
Moreover, the construction processes employed in crafting net-zero buildings far surpass the rudimentary techniques used in garden-variety structures. Advanced framing techniques are used in net-zero structures to prevent thermal bridging and improve insulation. This results in a structure that is very energy efficient. Conversely, garden-variety buildings resort to rudimentary framing techniques, resulting in insufficient insulation and a less efficient structure.
In terms of performance, net-zero buildings outshine their garden-variety counterparts. A meticulous focus on energy efficiency guides the creation of net-zero buildings, equipping them with features such as triple-glazed windows, superior insulation, and airtight construction. These features substantially reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. On the contrary, garden-variety structures often compromise on insulation and persist with outdated, inefficient heating and cooling systems, leading to increased energy costs and a heightened environmental impact.
Total value is yet another critical factor that distinguishes superior net-zero timber frame buildings from their inferior garden-variety peers. While a net-zero timber frame building may entail a higher initial cost, its long-term value eclipses that of its less advanced counterpart. Thanks to their superior construction, durability, and energy efficiency, net-zero buildings boast a significantly lower long-term cost of ownership. Conversely, garden-variety structures may appear cheaper initially but often accrue higher long-term costs due to increased energy consumption and maintenance requirements.
To liken a high-quality timber-framed net-zero building to a garden-variety structure is akin to comparing a sleek, well-maintained car with a dilapidated, old vehicle. While they may share certain materials like rubber, glass, and metal, the disparities in total value, performance, and quality are unmistakable. Expecting a subpar building constructed with inferior materials and construction standards to rival its superior counterpart is simply unjust.
Furthermore, the very act of making this comparison is flawed, assuming the erroneous premise that all timber frame buildings are created equal. Just as there exists a spectrum of car performance and quality, the same holds true for timber frame houses. Not only is it erroneous to lump all timber frame buildings together, but it also disregards the progress and innovations occurring in the construction industry.
It is both misguided and misleading to equate superior timber-framed net-zero buildings with their garden-variety, poorly insulated counterparts. Material disparities, construction techniques, overall value, and performance stand as clear differentiators. By noticing these differences, we can really understand why premium timber-framed net-zero buildings are so valuable and of such high quality, as well as how important they are for promoting sustainability.
Our unwavering commitment lies in exploring the pivotal role that timber plays in achieving net-zero emissions by 2030 as we endeavour to create a sustainable and environmentally conscious future. Often underappreciated, timber holds significant ecological and economic benefits. In this comprehensive piece, we delve into its significance, its multitude of applications, and its potential to revolutionise various industries.

Extraordinary Results C24 timber is noted for its exceptional toughness and durability, making it ideal for structurally demanding applications. It is sturdy enough to withstand heavy weights while resisting bending and warping.
Grading The letter ‘C’ in C24 also signifies structural certification. The ’24’ indicates a higher categorization than C16, implying exceptional capabilities.
Common Applications For high-load applications such as industrial buildings, bridges, and other vital structural sections, C24 timber is the material of choice. It is appropriate for applications requiring safety and longevity because to its high strength.
Choosing the Best Wood It’s critical to evaluate your project’s individual requirements while picking between C16 and C24 lumber. Here are a few things to consider:
Capacity for Bearing Load Because of its improved strength, C24 timber is the recommended choice for applications requiring large loads or crucial structural components.
Considerations for Cost Because C16 lumber is less expensive, it is an appealing option for applications requiring less strength.
The Project Description Take into account the nature of your project. C16 is typically utilised in residential and light commercial building, whereas C24 is employed in industrial or heavy-duty construction.
To summarise, understanding the distinction between C16 and C24 wood is critical for making informed building and woodworking decisions. While C16 is versatile and cost-effective, C24 stands out for its superior strength and durability. You may assure the structural integrity and endurance of your building initiatives by picking the appropriate grade according to the needs of your project.

Factorycabins.com is about moving forward and offering only Net Zero Buildings that push all others to offer the same at our pricing level; at the moment, in the UK, it’s at a ridiculous amount per square metre.
Profit seems to be the only goal. We on the other hand, believe in honesty, fairness, and transparency.
Sustainable Timber Sourcing
Sustainably sourced timber is the foundation of eco-friendliness in timber frame construction. Our commitment to sustainability begins at the start of the construction process. We ensure that the wood used in timber frame properties comes from certified, well-managed forests, so supporting biodiversity and reducing the carbon footprint associated with logging. We also make certain that all of our timber frame constructions are constructed using the best construction timber in the world C24 KD FSC.
Conserving Energy
One of the distinguishing aspects of timber frame properties is their exceptional energy efficiency. Because of the natural insulating properties of wood, these buildings are very energy-efficient, with reduced heat loss and lower energy consumption. This not only saves households money on electricity, but it also contributes greatly to the reduction of carbon emissions.
Capture and Storage of CO2
Timber frame constructions are unique in their capacity to act as a carbon sink. These buildings’ wood sequesters carbon for the rest of its life, making it a valuable ally in the fight against climate change. As trees grow, they absorb atmospheric carbon dioxide and store it in the structure of your home.
Durability and longevity
A properly constructed timber frame home can last for generations. This extended lifespan eliminates the need for costly renovations and the associated carbon emissions. With careful maintenance, these dwellings will last the test of time, providing an environmentally beneficial living alternative.
Energy-efficient heating and cooling systems
Modern, energy-efficient heating and cooling systems are commonly installed in timber frame buildings. These systems not only give exceptional comfort, but they also contribute to lower energy use and greenhouse gas emissions.
Building Waste Has Been Reduced
Timber frame home construction generates significantly less trash than traditional building procedures. This environmentally friendly technique reduces landfill strain and the environmental impact of building.
VOC-Free Products
When designing a timber frame property, we emphasise the use of low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) materials. As a result, indoor air quality improves while contributing less to air pollution and carbon emissions.
Renewable Energy Integration
To improve the sustainability of timber frame buildings, many homeowners prefer to install renewable energy sources such as solar panels. This not only reduces their carbon footprint, but it may also lead to energy independence.
Finally, timber frame features offer a number of benefits that align with the global goal of reducing carbon emissions and establishing a net-zero future. From sustainable timber sourcing to energy-efficient design, these homes are at the forefront of environmentally responsible development. When you choose a timber frame home, you are investing not only in a beautiful, long-lasting structure, but also in a more sustainable future.
Natural Insulation and Thermal Mass
Timber frame constructions provide excellent natural insulation and thermal bulk. The use of solid wood as a construction material allows for better temperature regulation. This means that these homes will be warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, requiring less heating and cooling on a regular basis. As a result, energy consumption is significantly reduced, and hence carbon emissions are reduced.
Passive Solar Design
Many timber frame homes are built with passive solar in mind. This strategy maximises natural light and heat, decreasing the need for artificial lighting and heating. By capturing the power of the sun, these homes contribute to energy efficiency and the reduction of carbon emissions.
Environmentally friendly architecture
Timber frame homes are usually developed with sustainable architecture concepts in mind. This includes features such as strategically placed windows for natural lighting, roof overhangs for shade, and rainwater collection systems. These design elements not only improve the aesthetic of the home, but they also help to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions.
Recycling and reusing
If a timber frame construction is ever dismantled, the wood and materials used to construct it can be easily recycled or repurposed. This reduces waste and contributes to the development of a circular economy, which aids in the reduction of carbon emissions associated with the production of new building materials.
The Function of the Homeowner
While timber frame homes have several advantages in terms of minimising carbon emissions, homeowner participation is also vital. Homeowners can increase the beneficial environmental impact of their timber frame home by employing eco-friendly practises such as energy-efficient appliances, judicious water consumption, and careful trash disposal.
Take part in the Sustainable Revolution.
Timber frame buildings are more than just houses; they are an important part of the ecological revolution. By choosing a timber frame home, you are actively contributing to the global effort to combat climate change and reduce carbon emissions. You’re saying that a comfortable, fashionable home may also be environmentally beneficial.
Timber frame homes not only provide a peaceful and comfortable living environment, but they also actively contribute to the greater goal of reducing carbon emissions and striving for a net-zero future.
Decide today to invest in a timber frame home and help to reduce carbon emissions while living a comfortable and sustainable lifestyle.
Let us delve more into the long-term benefits of timber frame properties in terms of carbon reduction:
Good Living Conditions
Timber frame houses contribute to a healthier living environment. The absence of dangerous substances, along with the inherent properties of wood, results in improved indoor air quality. This is especially significant in reducing respiratory difficulties and allergic reactions caused by volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are abundant in traditional construction materials. Lower medical costs, reduced environmental strain, and lower carbon emissions linked with healthcare practises all result from a healthier living environment.
Building with a lower carbon footprint
When compared to traditional building, timber frame properties frequently have a lower carbon footprint during the construction process. Because timber is lightweight, it is easier to transport, reducing energy use and associated emissions. Additionally, shorter construction durations result in less energy usage, less waste, and lower carbon emissions.
Adaptability and longevity
Timber frame structures are incredibly adaptable, with the ability to be quickly extended or modified. This versatility reduces the need for new building, which reduces the carbon emissions associated with new development. Furthermore, the longevity of timber frame homes ensures that they will be relevant and viable for future generations, resulting in less rubbish produced over time.
Promotion of Sustainable Forestry
The need for timber frame construction fosters sustainable forestry practises. Timber suppliers are encouraged to promote responsible forest management, safeguard healthy forests, and combat illegal logging. By choosing timber frame properties, you are indirectly assisting in the conservation of trees and wildlife, which aids in the reduction of carbon emissions.
Environmentally friendly funding and tax incentives
Many governments and financial institutions offer tax advantages and financing for environmentally friendly, sustainable housing. Investing in a timber frame property can result in significant cost savings and incentives, making it a financially viable investment that also helps to safeguard the environment.
Timber frame buildings are emerging as an enticing option in the quest for a more sustainable future and lower carbon emissions. They combine architectural beauty, energy efficiency, and environmental consciousness. Living in a timber frame home not only saves you money on energy bills, provides a better living environment, and has a timeless appeal, but it also helps to make the world a greener place.

INDUSTRY’S BEST WINDOWS AND DOORS
If you’re seeking high-quality windows and doors for your log cabin, there’s nothing better on the market right now than ours. And our factorycabins.com pricing is ridiculously low when compared to the quality level, and the reason for this is simple: we are here to provide quality at a reasonable price.
We basically brought all of our competitors’ windows and doors. Yep, we went under the radar and bought 12 sets of windows and doors, and guess what? They all sold expensive “crap.” Then we took them apart to really see what is being offered, and what we noticed was that 65% of the companies used only a small amount of cheap mastic sealant in their windows and doors, and some companies did not use any at all.
Next, we discovered that nearly every company was cutting costs on the ” DIY ” glass so-called double glazing packages, with the majority of 89% of companies making their own glass, so it is not CE-approved double glazing but rather cheap panes of glass imported from China that are stuck together and called double glazing. This could not be made up if you tried!
You’ll notice in our gallery that we have several photographs of the timber, certified joinery timber that has been dried to a moisture content of 5-7% and then moulded. This means that our windows and doors are not meant to twist, buckle, or exhibit any of the other undesirable characteristics associated with low-cost products.
Windows and Doors for Log Cabins
If you want a very high standard of windows and doors, something “better,” and you want to update your cabin windows, please let our agents know. Please click this link to see excellent windows and the machines used to make them.
While it is understandable to place a premium on having sufficiently thick walls for your Log Cabin in order to enjoy the comfort and little heat loss from within, we must not overlook the importance of having the same high-grade windows. Failure to do so results in a waste of money and energy.
www.factorycabins.com takes pleasure in handcrafting high-quality windows for each and every one of their log cabins. You can expect the same high-quality windows whether you have a modest garden cabin or a multi-room residential cabin.
To demonstrate the distinction, factorycabins.com only uses the best grade of glazing. This high-grade glazing is double-glazed and is suitable for any log cabins with a wall thickness of 44mm or greater. Twinskin Log Cabins with double walls and access for insulation are also outfitted with the same high-quality double glass modules.
Unlike many low-cost manufacturers, factorycabins.com goes out of their way to assure that your windows will provide you with many years of trouble-free service.
The handcrafted process includes the application of double mastic as well as the addition of high-quality galvanised black rain shields that will never rot or rust. All that is needed is a simple wipedown with a damp cloth, or if there is any more stubborn dirt or grime, such as bird droppings, a basic window cleaning solution from your local hardware store or supermarket will do the job swiftly. Mortice and Tennon joints are professionally and precisely connected to the window frames. Many of our rivals frequently overlook this phase.
The framework’s wood is kiln dried to a moisture percentage of 3/6%. We constantly advise our clients to ensure that the windows are adequately stained and protected from the weather as soon as possible in order to maintain the moisture content obtained and avoid any swelling, warping, or twisting. This easy process results in a completely waterproof gadget. This website’s home page contains a more complete description of the windows Please also watch the films, which will really impress you with the meticulous care that goes into window construction.
One of the quality checks we perform on the windows is to spray them with a powerful water spray for almost an hour. Not a single drop or drip of water makes it to the opposite side. This not only validates the superb craftsmanship of these devices but also the precision closures that result in a hermetically sealed result.
No high-quality single- or double-glazed unit should be lacking in security. The five-point locking mechanism, which www.factorycabins.com first introduced and represents an innovative leader in the UK, is the most important piece of hardware that they use.
The old English proverb “Don’t spoil the ship for a ha’peth of tar” is something that factorycabins.com has always followed. Historically, individuals who “skipped on the tar” discovered that their ships began leaking and listing and never lived up to their previous expectations. The same rule applies to log cabins, specifically log cabin windows. Be wary of unscrupulous cheap knockoffs who still make windows for a living. Your log cabin, whether it’s a garden log cabin, a garden office, a summerhouse, or a residential cabin, should be something you’re proud of and useful for many years. Www.factorycabins.com windows are all designed for long-term happiness. It really works out to be less expensive in the long term with no fuss. Doors for Log Cabins
In terms of security, aside from having good functional lockable windows, your front and rear doors must be incredibly robust and durable to survive any break in attempts. While top-of-the-line deadlocks are essential, we believe that many manufacturers create doors that are so weak that a front door might easily be kicked inward.
One of the most important qualities of a properly secured entrance door for a residential structure is that it opens outward. The door jamb is built into the framework behind the door in this manner, making it nearly impossible to kick open once the door is closed.
To truly reinforce this level of protection, you will require a strong, durable door that functions as a fortress to guard your property. Www.factorycabins.com manufactures such doors for your log cabins and includes the appropriate high-grade deadlock security locks with three keys.
Such heavy doors must hang and swing open and close effortlessly. This necessitates the use of exceptionally robust hinges. Again, www.factorycabins.com provides such components as part of the package.
When planning a multi-room log cabin, it is critical to consider the sort of furniture that will be used in each room. Take, for example, the bedroom. If you have a set of wardrobes in your bedroom and have limited space, the bedroom door should be built to swing outwards from the room rather than inwards. Other factors must be taken into account when rooms are close together and form a corner. It is not a good idea to install a door in such a way that it covers another door when fully opened. External doors that are glazed are double-glazed to the greatest extent possible. Internal doors are made of well-seasoned solid pine and are mortice and tenon jointed. When choosing glazed interior doors, only the best quality glazing is used in these cases.
The entrance door of a home, whether residential or a garden log cabin, should be welcoming and inviting. Factorycabins.com spends a lot of time and money making sure that the designs of these doors are not only beautiful but also useful.
We recommend that you preserve your door with suitable microporous paint as soon as possible to guarantee that it remains its beautiful condition for many years to come. It is an established fact that higher-quality products that cost a bit more than lower-quality products last much longer and cost less in the long run, as lower-quality products frequently need to be replaced multiple times during the same period. With a factorycabins.com door, you will always feel protected and secure. If you have any further questions,

An Overview of Net Zero Timber Frame Homes Timber Frame: A Sustainable Building Material in the Design of Net Zero Homes The Economics of Living at Net Zero The Environmental Impact of Net Zero Home Construction and Carbon Emissions Net Zero Living Aesthetics and Customization in Timber Frame Homes Comfort and Durability The Science of Net-Zero Living Case Studies: The Future of Sustainable Housing Steps to Building Your Own Net Zero Home Net Zero House Projects That Worked Overcoming Net Zero Living Challenges Policy and Regulations for Net Zero Homes Inspiring a Sustainable Lifestyle Book Introduction:
As our globe faces the problems of climate change and depleting natural resources, finding sustainable and energy-efficient solutions for our daily needs has become increasingly crucial. The development of net-zero timber-frame homes is one trend that has gained traction in recent years. These homes are a paradigm shift in the housing market, providing homeowners with a greener and more sustainable option. In this book, we will look at net-zero timber-frame homes and explain why they are important for the future of our world.
Introduction to Net Zero Timber Frame Homes in Chapter 1
Net zero wood frame buildings, also known as zero-energy homes, are built to generate as much energy as they consume in a year. Combining renewable energy sources, such as solar panels, with energy-efficient design makes this possible. Net zero homes have been around for a long, but employing timber frames as the principal building material takes it to the next level. Timber frame is a sustainable and renewable resource that is ideal for net-zero homes.
Chapter 2: Net Zero Home Energy-Efficient Design
One of the most significant benefits of net zero timber frame homes is their lower energy consumption. These houses are built to be well-insulated and airtight, preventing heat from escaping and eliminating the need for unnecessary heating or cooling. Additionally, the timber frame architecture allows for maximum natural lighting, decreasing the need for artificial lighting. Furthermore, the use of energy-efficient appliances and LED lights reduces energy consumption even further. All of these variables contribute to a large reduction in energy use, resulting in net zero dwellings.
Timber Frame: A Sustainable Building Material, Chapter 3
Reduced energy use not only benefits the environment, but it also saves homeowners money on their energy bills. Traditional homes use a lot of energy, particularly when it comes to heating and cooling. As a result, many households face hefty utility bills, which can be financially burdensome. Net-zero timber-frame homes, on the other hand, can save homeowners up to 80% on their energy expenditures. This not only benefits their wallets, but it also reduces their carbon footprint and helps to make the world a greener place.
Chapter 4: The Economics of Living at Net Zero
Net-zero timber frame buildings have a lower environmental impact in terms of construction in addition to being energy efficient. Timber frame homes use a sustainable and renewable resource as opposed to traditional structures, which require substantial amounts of concrete and steel. Timber is also less expensive to produce and transport, lowering the amount of energy consumed in the construction process. Furthermore, timber-framed buildings generate far less trash during construction than standard homes, making them a more environmentally friendly option.
Construction’s Environmental Impact, Chapter 5
Another reason why net-zero timber frame homes are critical for our planet’s future is their contribution to lowering carbon emissions. The construction industry is a major contributor to global carbon emissions. Net-zero homes help reduce the carbon footprint of the construction sector by using lumber as the primary building material. Furthermore, these homes use sustainable energy sources such as solar power, which reduces their carbon impact even further. Adoption of net zero timber frame homes is a step in the right direction, given the growing demand for sustainable solutions to address climate change.
Chapter 6: Carbon Emissions and Net Zero Homes
Net-zero timber frame homes are not only ecologically responsible and cost-effective, but they also provide a better level of comfort and durability. These dwellings’ insulation and airtight design maintain stable temperatures throughout, minimising cold draughts and hot spots. As a result, homeowners have a more comfortable living environment. Timber frame homes have a longer lifespan than standard homes in terms of durability. The wood used in the building is treated to avoid rot and insect infestations, resulting in a strong and long-lasting structure.
Chapter 7: Net Zero Living Comfort and Durability
When it comes to the aesthetics of net zero wood frame homes, they provide a one-of-a-kind and modern design that can be tailored to any taste. These homes have a warm and inviting vibe thanks to exposed oak beams and open floor designs. Wood’s natural beauty is also a big lure for homeowners looking for a sustainable yet fashionable solution for their houses.
So, net-zero timber-frame homes are a game changer in the housing business and critical for our planet’s future. These homes provide various advantages, including lower energy usage, lower costs, less environmental impact, and enhanced comfort and durability. Because of their environmentally friendly construction and usage of renewable energy sources, they are an excellent choice for people wishing to decrease their carbon footprint and contribute to a better planet. As we face climate change challenges, the use of net-zero timber frame homes is a step towards a more sustainable and energy-efficient future. So, let us make the conversion to net-zero timber frame homes and save the environment.
What I don’t get is why ADUs in most states cost three times what they’re worth, and their build quality is just horrible. An ADU is an investment, yet businesses demand $120.000 in materials for a one-bed, 400-square-meter unit. The walls have 100 mm of insulation, the roof has 150 mm, and the floor has 100 mm; this is not a house, but a cheap toilet. At Factory Cabins, we create houses from visually graded C24 KD lumber. KD implies it was dried in a kiln, and the moisture level is roughly 10%–12%, which is the equivalent of SS timber grade in the United States. it means we manufacture from the best timber on the planet. If you are a company that is looking for a supplier to help you offer your consumer base the best prices, higher quality, and a fair price, please contact us. The pricing difference is half, and our quality is without a doubt 100% better.
Many individuals want to own a home, but with growing housing costs and limited space in cities, it’s becoming increasingly challenging. Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are a solution to this dilemma, offering homeowners a cost-effective method to expand their living space while increasing the value of their property. These small supplementary units, sometimes known as granny flats, backyard cottages, or in-law suites, are becoming increasingly popular as a means to enhance living space without requiring standard house enlargement procedures. And, with the emergence of ADU kits, constructing an ADU has gotten much simpler.
So, exactly what are ADUs? ADUs are small, self-contained dwellings built on the same lot as an existing single-family home. They can range in size from a modest studio to a two-bedroom unit and often include a kitchenette, bathroom, and living space. ADUs can be attached to the main house or stand alone on the same property. They also have their own entrance and address, providing inhabitants with complete privacy and independence from the main residence.
There are numerous advantages to having an ADU on your property. ADUs, in addition to offering additional living space, can also generate rental income, assist homeowners in aging in place, support multigenerational living, and provide accommodation for caretakers or family members. Furthermore, ADUs can boost the value of a home and allow homeowners to downsize without leaving their beloved community.
ADUs have been around for a long time, but the development of ADU kits has made them more affordable to homeowners. These kits provide all of the materials and components needed to construct a fully functional ADU, such as well insulated, triple-glazed, and SS-graded timber frames. ADU kits, as opposed to traditional home expansion options like building an addition or converting a basement, are relatively quick and easy to install, with a typical turnaround time of 8 to 10 weeks.
The utilization of high-quality materials and construction procedures is one of the primary benefits of using an ADU kit. The timber frames utilized in these kits are made in Europe and subjected to stringent quality control standards. This means that the end result will be of higher quality and longevity than traditional building methods. Furthermore, the highly insulated materials used in ADU kits make them energy-efficient, allowing homeowners to save money on utility expenditures over time.
Another advantage of ADU kits is their low cost. A typical extension or basement conversion can be costly and time-consuming. ADU kits, on the other hand, are substantially more cheap and may be supplied directly to the construction site in containers. This eliminates the need for costly on-site construction, potentially saving households thousands of dollars.
ADU kits also provide homeowners with a customizable and adaptable choice. The size and configuration of the kit may be adapted to the homeowner’s unique needs and preferences, making it an adaptable option for various homes and lifestyles. ADU kits can also be made to blend in with the main house, preserving the property’s style.
Finally, ADUs and ADU kits are a practical and cost-effective choice for homeowners wishing to expand their living space or raise the value of their property. As the need for housing continues to rise, ADUs offer a sustainable and cost-effective way to extend living space without requiring substantial construction. ADU kits are becoming a popular choice for homeowners across America and beyond because to their high-quality materials, rapid turnaround time, and customization choices.

A Comprehensive Guide to look into Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)
We will soon be offering the USA a quality distributor of our timber frames (ADUs).
We go deep into the world of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in this thorough blog, giving you vital insights and information to help you better grasp what ADUs are, how they work, and why they are gaining popularity. If you want to make the most of your property or are thinking about creating an ADU, you’ve come to the correct spot.
ADUs, or accessory dwelling units, are extra living quarters built on the same land as a principal house. These flats may be independent constructions, converted garages, basement apartments, or even expansions to the main home. ADUs are completely functional living areas that include sleeping, kitchen, and bathroom amenities.
Why are ADUs popular? 1. Increased Property Value
One of the main reasons ADUs are becoming popular is their ability to greatly boost property values. By adding an ADU to your home, you generate an extra rental revenue stream, which increases the appeal of your property to potential purchasers or renters.
2. Living with Multiple Generations
ADUs are an appropriate answer in an era when multigenerational living is on the rise. These units allow families to live together while retaining privacy and independence, making them an ideal alternative for caring for aging parents or adult children.
3. Rental Revenue
ADUs allow homeowners to earn extra money by renting out their excess space. This may be a profitable business, particularly in high-demand metropolitan locations where housing shortages are widespread.
In many areas, there is a severe scarcity of affordable housing. ADUs offer a solution by providing smaller, more affordable housing alternatives for people and families.
ADUs are classified into several types, each with its own set of qualities and benefits. Here are several examples:
Detached ADUs are constructions that stand alone on the same property as the main home. They provide total autonomy and privacy and are frequently utilized as guest houses, rental flats, or home offices.
2. ADUs with attached garages
Attached ADUs are built into the main house and share walls or a common entrance. If you have limited outside space or desire a seamless connection between the units, they are a good solution.
3. ADUs in the basement
Converting an unfinished basement into a living area is a low-cost approach to establishing an ADU. Basement ADUs offer insulation and a peaceful environment.
ADU Construction: A Step-by-Step Guide
1. Planning and research
Thorough study and planning are the initial steps in constructing an ADU. Consider your budget, local restrictions, and the ADU’s intended usage. Choose from a detached, attached, or basement apartment.
Collaborate with an architect or designer to produce a design that matches your demands while also adhering to local construction codes. Before you begin building, be sure you have all of the appropriate permits from your local authorities.
Build your ADU with the help of a trustworthy constructor. Ensure that all plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems are properly installed. Construction quality is critical for safety and longevity.
4. Interior Design
Select interior finishes that complement your style and budget. Consider the demands of future tenants or residents while designing a practical and welcoming facility.
5. Landscaping and Outdoor Living Areas
Improve the curb appeal of your ADU with well-planned landscaping and outdoor areas. This might raise the total value of your home.
Local Regulations and ADUs
When constructing an ADU, it is essential to be mindful of local rules. Zoning rules, construction codes, and permission procedures can all be somewhat different. Consult your local authorities or engage a specialist that is familiar with ADU rules.
We’ve looked at the world of accessory dwelling Units (ADUs) and why they’ve become a popular choice for homeowners. ADUs are a versatile alternative for improving the value of your home, housing family members, or producing rental money. When going on your ADU voyage, remember to complete comprehensive research, prepare wisely, and follow local restrictions. An ADU may be a beneficial addition to your home if approached correctly, giving both financial advantages and improved living conditions.

Savvy investors in today’s fast-paced real estate market are continually on the hunt for new and lucrative possibilities. Investing in accessory dwelling units (ADUs) is one such possibility that has gained traction in recent years. In this in-depth tutorial, we will delve into the world of ADU investing and examine the numerous aspects that make it a wise choice for investors wishing to diversify their portfolios.
What are ADUs (accessory dwelling units)? Before we get into the advantages of investing in ADUs, let’s define what they are. ADUs are supplementary dwelling units that are often placed on the same property as a principal house. They are also known as granny flats, in-law apartments, or backyard cottages. These apartments can be created as distinct constructions, connected to the main home, or converted from existing space.
ADUs are becoming increasingly popular. ADUs have grown in popularity in recent years for a variety of reasons, including:
Rising desire for inexpensive Housing: As the cost of housing in many metropolitan areas rises, there is a growing desire for more inexpensive housing alternatives. ADUs offer a solution by providing smaller, more cost-effective living areas.
Rental revenue Potential: ADUs allow homeowners to produce rental revenue, making them an appealing investment option. ADUs may increase your revenue whether you’re a seasoned real estate investor or a homeowner trying to maximize the value of your property.
ADUs can be used for a variety of purposes, including sheltering aging family members, accommodating adult children, and operating as a rental property. This adaptability is a major selling factor for both homeowners and investors.
The Financial Benefits of ADU Investing Now that we’ve covered the fundamentals of ADUs, let’s look at the financial advantages of investing in these adaptable structures.
Consistent Rental Income Stream The possibility of a consistent rental revenue stream is one of the most tempting characteristics of ADU investments. These additional flats may be rented to tenants, providing you with a steady stream of income. This extra money might be used to pay down your mortgage, finance other investments, or just improve your financial situation.
Property Value Increase Investing in an ADU can raise the total value of your house. The installation of a well-designed, practical ADU may dramatically improve the curb appeal and attractiveness of your house. As a consequence, when you decide to sell, your home will attract a higher selling price, providing a good return on investment.
Tax Advantages In many areas, homeowners who develop and rent out ADUs can take advantage of tax breaks and deductions. These tax breaks can lower your overall tax bill, making ADU investments even more appealing. Consult with a tax professional to learn about the unique benefits available in your region.
The Construction of an ADU Investing in ADUs entails a series of phases, and it’s critical to comprehend the entire process. Here’s a quick rundown:
Planning and research Begin by studying your area’s zoning rules, construction codes, and permit procedures. You must first assess if your land is appropriate for an ADU and which style of unit would best meet your needs.
Planning and Funding Create a blueprint for your ADU with the help of an architect or designer. Concurrently, investigate your funding choices, which might include personal savings, home equity loans, or other types of finance.
Development The building process can begin once you have obtained the relevant permissions and finance. This process might take many months, depending on the intricacy of your ADU. Hiring competent contractors is critical for keeping the project on track.
Tenant Management and Legalities As your ADU nears completion, be sure you understand local landlord-tenant rules. A good renting experience requires proper tenant screening and lease agreements.
Investing in accessory dwelling units (ADUs) is a fantastic option for both homeowners and experienced real estate investors. With the potential for consistent rental income, property value increases, and tax advantages, ADU investments can considerably contribute to your financial well-being.
As you begin your adventure into the world of ADU investing, keep in mind that cautious preparation, comprehensive research, and adherence to local rules are essential for success. Whether you want to increase your income, increase the value of your property, or provide affordable housing alternatives, ADUs are a potential investment.
ADU Investment Possibility
When you incorporate ADUs into your real estate plan, you will uncover a lucrative opportunity that will help you reach your financial goals while also contributing to the rising demand for affordable housing alternatives
Modular Building: Changing the Future of Construction
A silent revolution is taking place in the world of modern building, promising to revolutionise the way we construct and evolve structures.

Is it worth it to live in a little house? Investigating the Advantages and Disadvantages Tiny houses have taken over the property market in recent years. These little living quarters are an appealing alternative to larger residences, but are they really worth it? In this post, we’ll look at the benefits and drawbacks of tiny homes to help you decide whether they’re perfect for you.
The Allure of Tiny Houses Tiny houses have become extremely popular for a variety of convincing reasons:
Cost-effectiveness One of the most appealing aspects of tiny homes is their low cost. They are substantially less expensive to build or buy than standard-sized dwellings. This affordability is especially enticing to people wishing to cut their overall housing costs and live a more modest lifestyle.
Minimalist Way of Life Tiny houses promote a minimalist lifestyle by driving residents to simplify and prioritise what is actually important. As people find themselves surrounded by only the objects they truly value, this change towards minimalism can lead to less stress and improved contentment.
Environmentally Friendly Living Tiny houses are frequently constructed with sustainability in mind. They need fewer resources to build and maintain, leaving a lower environmental footprint. If you care about the environment, a tiny house can be a fantastic way to reduce your carbon footprint.
four. mobility Tiny houses on wheels allow you to move around as you wish. Whether you wish to travel to new places or simply change your landscape, mobility can be a huge benefit.
The Drawbacks of Tiny Living While compact houses offer many advantages, there are also disadvantages to consider:
Inadequate Space The limited room is maybe the most major problem of living in a little house. If you’re used to living in a big house, downsizing to a compact house can be a big change. It necessitates meticulous planning and smart utilisation of every square inch.
Zoning and Legal Concerns Tiny houses frequently confront zoning and legal issues. Many communities have severe restrictions governing the size and location of dwellings, making it difficult to lawfully park or build your tiny home.
Low resale value Tiny houses have a lower market value than standard dwellings. This makes them a less appealing investment if you want to grow equity over time.
Inadequate Privacy Living in close quarters with others in a small house can cause privacy concerns. There is frequently insufficient personal space, which can strain relationships and cause discomfort.
Is a Tiny House for You? Finally, whether or not a compact house is worthwhile relies on your specific choices and lifestyle. A tiny house may be a good choice for you if you value affordability, sustainability, and a minimalist lifestyle. If you value space, long-term investment possibilities, or privacy, you may want to look into other home options.
Before making a decision, extensively examine local rules, evaluate your long-term goals, and carefully weigh the pros and cons. Finally, the decision to invest in a tiny house should be based on your own wants and goals.

This energy efficiency results in cheaper utility costs and a lower carbon footprint, all of which contribute to a brighter future.
Solar Passive Design Many wooden homes employ passive solar design concepts, utilising the sun’s energy for heating and lighting. This environmentally friendly strategy not only saves energy usage but also improves overall home comfort.
Aesthetic Flexibility Wooden houses have an incredible amount of aesthetic diversity. Wood may be customised to meet your architectural choices, whether you desire a traditional log cabin, a modern timber-framed house, or something in between. The versatility of wood allows homeowners to build one-of-a-kind, personalised environments that reflect their personal style.
Ultimately, wooden houses are an enduring representation of elegance, sustainability, and craftsmanship. Their ability to blend in with nature, as well as their sustainable sourcing practises and durability, make them a great alternative for individuals looking for a return to nature without sacrificing comfort and flair. Accept the beauty of timber homes and revel in the enduring allure of this architectural marvel.

Before we begin and start explaining to you the reasoning behind highly insulated timber frame buildings, we must also talk about the self-build market and the replacement market. If you are wanting to knock a house down and rebuild, please speak to us.
If you own a plot of land anywhere in Scotland, Ireland, Canada, the United States, the UK, Devon, Cornwall, Nottingham, or California and are searching for an ADU (well-insulated timber frame house, tiny house, or full-size building), we are the people to talk to. There are several companies selling junk called tiny homes, and the insulation is only 100mm if you’re lucky, and triple glazing is a dream. If they increase both items, you’re looking at 100.000 or more in most currencies, whether Euro, Dollar, or Stirling.Why is it so expensive? Pure avarice! It makes me smile. People in Dublin are trying to buy a 2-bedroom property for more than $320.000, and the property is only graded C. Crazy!
Why is everything so pricey, one wonders? Greed is a simple word.If you want quality at a low price, I can honestly say that no one in Ireland builds our quality, not even close. We can export the materials, prefabricated as prefabricated panels, to any region of the world by container at incredible pricing. You are always welcome to come to our facilities.
Canada, Ireland, and America all have significant housing shortages, and the number of dwellings required in the UK is ridiculous; nonetheless, most governments want to regulate everything, which is one of the reasons why housing is in short supply.We can put all of the materials except the roof finish in two containers for under £68.000 in EX Works materials plus shipping. Container pricing varies depending on where you live.
This structure has two bedrooms, a bathroom, a living room, and a lounge.
The specs are incredible. This house was designed to put Mother Nature to the ultimate test.
The specification of this, starting with the insulation value, blasts most buildings out of the water, and we have still preserved the beauty and aesthetics. it does not appear like a pillar box from WWII like most Net Zero Builds, which generally have very big walls and are incredibly ugly.
Our standard insulation levels in our premade panels
250mm floor. 300mm walls, 350mm roof All construction timber used is KD, C24, PFC, or FSe.

Lower energy use for heating and cooling results in lower energy bills and a smaller environmental effect.
Reduced Waste When compared to traditional methods, timber frame construction produces less waste. Precise measurements and pre-cut components reduce onsite waste to a minimum. Offcuts and waste wood can be recycled or repurposed, adding to the sustainability of construction practises.
Longevity of Timber Frames The durability of timber frame buildings is one of their most notable characteristics. Timber may last for decades if properly handled and maintained. Here are some of the reasons why timber frame structures are built to last:
Inherent Resistance Timber is naturally resistant to pests and decay, especially when properly preserved. This natural resistance preserves the frame’s strength and structural integrity for many years.
Structural Stability Timber frame construction are built to endure a variety of environmental factors, such as earthquakes and large snow loads. The interlocking beams and posts ensure the building’s safety and lifespan by providing remarkable structural stability.
Easy to Maintain Timber frame structures require little upkeep over their lifetime. Regular inspections and small repairs are usually sufficient to keep the structure in good shape. This translates to long-term cost reductions.
Timber Frame Construction Cost-Effectiveness Aside from being environmentally friendly and long-lasting, timber frame building also saves money.
Construction Speed Timber frame construction can be built rapidly, lowering labour costs and accelerating project completion. This efficiency is critical when it comes to achieving tight deadlines and budget limits.
Design Versatility Timber frames provide for a wide range of architectural ideas. The open floor layouts and large spaces they provide allow architects and designers to create unique and aesthetically beautiful structures.
Long-Term Investments Timber frame construction offers significant long-term savings for property owners due to lower energy expenses, minimum maintenance, and a longer lifespan.

An Detailed Guide to Timber Frame Home Insulation Insulation is a critical component that is frequently overlooked while building your dream wood frame home. Proper insulation not only assures year-round comfort, but it also helps with energy efficiency and cost savings. As experts in the area, we will walk you through all you need to know about choosing the correct insulation for your wood frame home in this article.
Understanding Timber Frame Building Before getting into insulating choices, it’s critical to first understand timber frame construction. Timber framing is a traditional building technique that uses huge timber beams and posts to create a house’s structural framework. These frameworks are then filled with a variety of materials, including insulation, to give comfort and weather protection.
Considerations When Choosing Insulation
Thermal Performance and R-Value When choosing insulation for your wood frame home, the R-value is the most important thing to consider. The R-value of an insulating material evaluates its heat resistance. In layman’s words, it determines how well the insulation resists heat flow. The higher the R-value, the better the thermal performance of the insulation.
You’ll want insulation with a high R-value when insulating a timber frame home to keep it warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Spray foam insulation and rigid foam boards are two common insulation materials with high R-values.
Water Resistance Moisture ingress into timber frame homes can lead to structural damage and mould growth. As a result, choosing moisture-resistant insulating materials is critical. Closed-cell spray foam insulation, which forms a barrier against moisture intrusion, is an ideal solution in this regard.
Environmental Concerns There are various sustainable insulating alternatives available for people that prioritise eco-friendly options. Recycled denim insulation and cellulose insulation derived from recycled paper materials are two examples. These materials not only provide great insulation, but they are also less harmful to the environment.
Installation Procedures The efficiency of your insulation is dependent on proper installation. Batt insulation, blown-in insulation, and spray foam insulation are all methods of installing insulation. The approach you choose may be determined by your budget as well as the specific needs of your wood frame home.
Spray foam insulation is one of the recommended insulation options. Spray foam insulation is a popular alternative for timber-framed homes due to its high R-value and resilience to dampness. It forms a smooth and airtight barrier, preventing heat loss and lowering energy bills.
Advantages:
R-value high Superior moisture resistance qualities of air sealing Long life expectancy Drawbacks:
Higher initial investment
Insulation using Rigid Foam Board Rigid foam board insulation provides superior thermal performance as well as moisture resistance. Because it is simple to cut and install, it is a favourite choice among builders.
Advantages:
R-value high Moisture-resistant Simple to use and install Applications that are versatile Drawbacks:
Additional air sealing may be required.
In conclusion, selecting the appropriate insulation for your wood frame home is critical for assuring comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term structural integrity. Because of their superior thermal performance and moisture resistance, we recommend spray foam insulation or rigid foam board insulation. If environmental sustainability is important to you, look into recycled denim insulation and cellulose insulation. You may enjoy a cosy and eco-friendly timber frame house for years to come if you make an informed decision.
When it comes to insulation, remember that investing in quality materials and appropriate installation is an investment in the future of your home. Make the correct decision today to live in a pleasant and energy-efficient timber frame home.

THE BEST WINDOWS AND DOORS IN THE INDUSTRY There is nothing better on the market right now for high-quality windows and doors for your log home than ours. And our factorycabins.com cost is absurdly inexpensive when compared to the quality level, for one simple reason: we are here to deliver quality at a fair price. We basically brought all of our competitors’ windows and doors, yep, we went under the radar and bought 12 sets of windows and doors, and guess what, they all sold expensive “crap.” Then we disassembled them to really see what was being offered, and what we discovered was that 65% of the companies used only a small amount of cheap mastic sealant in their windows and doors, and some companies did not use any at all. Following that, we noticed that almost every manufacturer was (is) lowering costs on “diy” glass so-called double glazing packages. Because the majority of enterprises (89% of them) create their own glass, it is not CE-approved double glazing, but rather cheap panes of glass imported from China that are put together and labelled double glazing. You couldn’t make this stuff up!
You’ll notice that we have numerous photos of the timber in our gallery, certified joinery timber that has been dried to a moisture content of 5-7% and then moulded. This implies that our windows and doors are not intended to twist, buckle, or exhibit any of the other unpleasant qualities associated with low-cost products. Log Cabin Windows and Doors Please let our representatives know if you want a very high grade of windows and doors, something “better,” and you want to update your cabin windows. Please follow this link to see some fantastic windows and the machinery that manufactures them. While it is fair to prioritise having adequately strong walls for your log cabin in order to enjoy comfort and little heat loss from within, we must not overlook the significance of having the same high-quality windows. Failure to do so wastes both money and energy. Factorycabins.com takes pride in handcrafting high-quality windows for each of their log cabins. Whether you have a little garden cabin or a multi-room residential cabin, you can expect the same high-quality windows. Factorycabins.com exclusively employs the highest grade of glazing to demonstrate the distinction. This double-glazed high-grade glazing is suited for any log cabin with a wall thickness of 44mm or greater. The same high-quality double glass modules are used in Twinskin Log Cabins with double walls and access for insulation. Unlike many low-cost manufacturers, factorycabins.com goes out of its way to ensure that your windows will last for many years. The handcrafted technique includes the use of double mastic as well as high-quality galvanised black rain shields that will never rot or rust. A simple wipedown with a damp cloth is all that is required, or if there is any more tenacious dirt or grime, such as bird droppings, a basic window cleaning solution from your local hardware shop or supermarket will do the job quickly. The window frames are mortised and tenoned with care and precision. Many of our competitors usually overlook this stage. The wood in the framework has been kiln dried to a moisture percentage of 3/6%. We always encourage our clients to ensure that the windows are properly stained and weather-protected as soon as possible in order to keep the moisture content and avoid any swelling, warping, or twisting. This simple procedure yields a completely watertight device. There is a link to the homepage of this website. Please watch the films, which will certainly amaze you with the exquisite attention that goes into window building, for a more detailed description of the windows. We shower the windows with a vigorous water spray for over an hour as part of the quality control process. There isn’t a single drop or drip of water that gets it to the other side. This supports not just the excellent craftsmanship of these devices, but also the precision closures that result in a hermetically sealed product. Security should not be an issue with any high-quality single- or double-glazed unit. In order to be a leader in innovation in the UK, www.factorycabins.com only uses the highest quality hardware for its hinges, handles, stays, and—most importantly—its five-point locking mechanism. The old English proverb “Don’t spoil the ship for a ha’porth of tar” has always guided factorycabins.com. Historically, those who “skipped on the tar” discovered that their ships began to leak and list, never living up to their former aspirations. The same principle holds true for log cabins, specifically log cabin windows. Be aware of shady knockoffs who still make windows for a living. Whether it’s a garden log cabin, a garden office, a summerhouse, or a residential cabin, your log cabin should be something you’re proud of and something you’ll use for many years. Www.factorycabins.com windows are all intended to provide long-term satisfaction. It truly ends up being less expensive in the long run, with no fuss. Doors for Log Homes In terms of security, in addition to having effective lockable windows, your front and back doors must be extremely robust and durable to withstand any break-in attempts. While high-quality deadlocks are necessary, we believe that many manufacturers design doors that are so weak that a front door can be simply kicked inward. One of the most significant characteristics of a well guarded home entrance door is that it opens outward. In this technique, the door jamb is incorporated into the framework behind the door, making it nearly impossible to kick open once the door is closed. To properly enforce this level of security, you must have a really strong, solid door that acts as a fortress to secure your property. Www.factorycabins.com makes such log cabin doors and provides the necessary high-grade deadlock security locks with three keys. Such huge doors must smoothly hang and swing open and close. This involves the use of extremely strong hinges. Again, such components are included in the bundle at www.factorycabins.com. It is vital to consider the type of furniture that will be used in each room when designing a multi-room log home. Take the bedroom, for example. If you have a set of wardrobes in your bedroom and have limited space, the bedroom door should open outwards rather than inwards. When rooms are close together and create a corner, other aspects must be considered. Installing a door in such a way that it completely covers another door is not a good idea.
External glass doors are double-glazed to the greatest extent practicable. Internal doors are mortise and tenon jointed and made of well-seasoned solid pine. In these circumstances, only the highest quality glazing is used when selecting glazed interior doors. The entrance door of a house, whether residential or a garden log cabin, should be welcoming, and factorycabins.com invests a significant amount of time and money ensuring that such doors are not only gorgeous but also functional. We recommend that you maintain your door as soon as possible with appropriate microporous paint to ensure that it remains in pristine shape for many years to come. Higher-quality products that cost a little more than lower-quality products last much longer and cost less in the long term, because lower-quality products usually need to be replaced numerous times during the same period. You will always feel safe and secure with a factorycabins.com door. If you have any further inquiries, please contact us by email at sales@factorycabins.com.

Improving Modern tiny Home Energy Efficiency
We have identified essential ideas and solutions to help you cut energy usage, lower utility costs, and contribute to a greener, more sustainable future in our goal of optimising energy efficiency in modern houses. We recognise the importance of making informed decisions when it comes to enhancing the energy efficiency of your house, and we are devoted to providing you with comprehensive information. Let’s look at the various facets of energy efficiency and how you may efficiently integrate them in your home.
Recognising Energy Efficiency
In today’s world, when environmental concerns and growing energy bills are common, energy efficiency is critical. It entails using less energy to get the same or even better results. By improving energy efficiency in your house, you not only save money but also minimise your carbon footprint, helping the environment.
Insulation’s Function
Insulation of high quality for maximum thermal performance
Proper insulation is one of the pillars of home energy efficiency. A well-insulated house keeps heat in during the winter and out during the summer, resulting in significant energy savings. To achieve optimal thermal performance, consider investing in high-quality insulation materials such as fibreglass, cellulose, or foam.
Preventing Energy Loss Through Air Sealing
Air sealing, in addition to insulation, is critical for energy conservation. Small holes and cracks in the structure of your home can cause significant heat loss. You may build an airtight barrier that prevents draughts and energy leaks by caulking or weatherstripping these openings.
Windows and Doors That Conserve Energy
Windows with triple panes of glass
Replacing single-pane windows with triple-glazed windows can significantly improve energy efficiency. These windows insulate better and limit heat transmission, keeping your home pleasant all year.
Doors that are insulated
Investing in insulated doors with correct weatherstripping can help keep your indoor temperature stable. This not only saves energy but also improves security and soundproofing.
Heating and cooling systems with high efficiency
HVAC Systems of the Present
Upgrading to a high-efficiency heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system can reduce energy use dramatically. Look for cooling systems with a high seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) and heating systems with a high annual fuel utilisation efficiency (AFUE).
Thermostats with Programmable Functions
Installing programmable thermostats allows you to more efficiently control the temperature settings in your house. You may programme them to reduce temperatures when you’re away or asleep and raise them when you get home to save electricity.
Energy-Saving Lighting
LED Lights
Replace incandescent bulbs with LED illumination to save electricity. LED bulbs last longer, use less energy, and produce less heat, making them an economical and ecologically good alternative.
Solutions for Renewable Energy
Panels for solar energy
Consider installing solar panels on your roof to capture the power of the sun. Solar energy can help you lessen your dependency on traditional energy sources while also lowering your electricity bills.
Wind Generators
Wind turbines can be an amazing renewable energy source if you reside in a windy area. They create electricity by harnessing the power of the wind, lowering your carbon footprint even further.
Optimising energy efficiency in your modern home is not only possible but also highly useful. By applying the aforementioned ideas, you can create a more comfortable living environment while also contributing to a more sustainable future. Factory Cabins is committed to supporting you in making informed decisions to improve the energy efficiency of your house. Contact us today to take the first step towards a more environmentally friendly and cost-effective home environment.

We were the first to bring log cabins to the UK, and it was us that helped shape the market today, as most of the top 3 sellers in the UK came to us, cap in hand asking us to help them, and supply them, sadly since those days, they have ventured off on their own, and have brought nothing of quality to the market but mass manufactured rubbish; they have not changed the doors, windows, or range. Same old crap, year after year, the only thing thats changed is the prices.

How We Can Assist You in Obtaining a Lawful Development Certificate for Your Annex or Garden Room Under the Caravan Act 1968
When it comes to adding an annexe or garden room to your home, you may find yourself digging into the complexities of planning and building requirements. It is especially important to explore the legal situation carefully if you intend to establish a living space that falls under the Caravan Act 1968. We specialise in offering expert information and help to people seeking a legal development certificate for their annex or garden room at Factory Cabins. We’ll lead you through the process in this detailed guide, outlining the important procedures and factors to guarantee a smooth experience.
Understanding the 1968 Caravan Act
Before getting into the technicalities of acquiring a legal development certificate, it is critical to understand the Caravan Act of 1968. This piece of legislation establishes the legal framework for caravan sites in the United Kingdom, including annexes and garden rooms. Certain constructions can be classified as caravans under this Act, subject to certain criteria. Caravans as outlined in the 1968 Caravan All our buildings are manufactured to be highly insulated and unique. the only thing about them that is caravan is that if you need to get one of ours into your garden, you need it to pass the law, which is height, off the ground, movable, and that’s about it. Most of the time even that does not apply. Please give us a ring and find out more; you have nothing to lose. We do all the paperwork, all the planning, and all the fighting.
Residential Unit Residential Annex Residential Property Residential Structure
According to the Caravan Act of 1968, caravans are essentially transportable constructions meant for human habitation. A structure must meet many requirements to be classified as such:
Mobility: Even if a caravan spends the most of its time in one location, it should have access to transportation.
Size: The structure shall not exceed the length, breadth, and height limits specified in the legislation.
Caravans should have a frame made of rigid materials suitable for transportable use.
Understanding these criteria is critical since annexes and garden rooms might be considered trailers under this Act in many circumstances. As a result, acquiring a legal development certificate becomes important to assure legal compliance.
The Importance of a Certificate of Lawful Development
Obtaining a Lawful Development Certificate is an important step in ensuring that your annexe or garden room is in accordance with the Caravan Act 1968. Here’s why it’s so important:
Legal Compliance: If your annexe or garden room lacks a Lawful Development Certificate, it may be ruled unlawful, perhaps leading to enforcement measures.
Peace of Mind: Having the certificate ensures that your construction complies with legal regulations, providing you peace of mind as you embark on your property development adventure.
Property Value: A Lawful Development Certificate can increase the value of your home because potential purchasers will value the legality of any new living spaces.

More, this is regarding new dwellings,.
To achieve the UK’s net-zero carbon transition by 2030, ( WAS 2050-CHANGED TO 2030) new dwellings must meet high energy efficiency standards while minimising life cycle carbon emissions. Using Water Lilies as a case study, this study develops a method for integrating building energy modelling (BEM) and life cycle assessment (LCA) tools, IES Virtual Environment (IES VE) and One Click LCA, to conduct a life cycle assessment of the operational and embodied carbon impacts of a typical terraced building shell in an eco self-build community housing (ESBC) project. It assesses and compares the carbon footprints of six design solutions for the case study building shell during a 60-year life cycle. The findings are based on grid-connected Future Energy Scenarios (FES) with varying carbon intensities expected throughout time, as well as the microgrid-connected Water Lilies Community Energy (WLCE) scenario, which is operationally carbon-free. Depending on the FES, embodied carbon accounted for between 59 and 80% of total emissions, while operational carbon contributed for 20-41% of total emissions across design alternatives. The findings demonstrate that operational carbon is very sensitive to the fraction of renewables in the grid’s energy mix, which is difficult to anticipate and can have a substantial impact on design choices. As a result, future studies should account for expected changes in the carbon intensity of the grid using a strategy similar to the one presented. Overall, the integration of IES VE and One Click LCA resulted in a more streamlined life cycle assessment to aid in early design decisions by enabling energy consumption simulation in BEM to assess operational carbon emissions and the automated transfer of building materials from the BEM model to the LCA tool to assess embodied carbon emissions. The lack of material-specific data in early design stage plans, the impossibility to automatically transfer the timber frame structure from IES VE to One Click LCA, and the unpredictability of future energy trends were among the restrictions.
Over 23 years ago, we discovered that designing amazing small dwellings for our English green spaces would benefit families in a variety of ways, including a place to study, sleep, party, the man-woman cave, the bar, games rooms, computer rooms, insulated kids bedrooms, granny annexes and so many other purposes, and with our thousands of different designs to meet the needs, timber frame, interlocking log, glulam and rustic logs and modular. Unlike most, we are able to produce everything at a very affordable cost. What makes us unique? Our experienced labourers, carpenters, welders, and draughtsman are the greatest because we are honest and reliable, and when we leave a market, that market stops moving forward, designs falter, and, as we see in the camping pod industry, only rubbish is created at outrageous rates.

Below is an accurate description on how the standard BS 3632 Park Homes, or static mobiles, are manufactured by the top 10 UK leading manufacturers: “They do not have to be better”, they just meet the regulation to its letter.
And when you are hypnotised by the kitchen and TV you forget to ask them one very simple question, Is this a financial investment? if they say yes, they are lying, if they say no then they are just plain stupid, as why do they think for the past 50 years you have bought and sold and earned a tidy sum from your property portfolio,, to waste every penny on a cheap, nasty , awful , rubbish BS 3632.
Our residential park homes are manufactured to such a high standard that no one in the industry is even slightly close, our basic insulation package is 250 floors, 300 walls, and 350 roof, fitted with triple glazed windows and doors. That’s just the beginning; all our units are made with C24, graded KD FCE timber, we offer fireproof, waterproof, and insulated cladding on the outside of the building; and amazing internal panel systems that make you building look like a house in Park Lane. And the price is lower than anything even similar to that offered in the UK.
Insanity, from £80.000 to 500.000 for a Residential Park Home manufactured to the standard BS 3632 Madness
BS3632’s Dreadful Reality: Poorly Manufactured, Expensive, and Wasteful
The British Standards Institution (BSI) developed BS3632 standards to ensure that the building and design of residential park houses, vacation lodges, and static caravans satisfy the appropriate safety and quality norms. On the surface, these tight rules appear to be a wonderful concept; nevertheless, upon closer study and analysis, it becomes abundantly clear that adhering to BS 3632 frequently leads in expensive, overpriced holiday homes of poor quality, far from optimal comfort and safety. Indeed, deciding to build and purchase a vacation home to this standard demonstrates a careless disdain for quality, wastefulness of resources, and utter financial inefficiency.
To begin with, BS3632-compliant constructions are frequently built with extremely expensive building materials such as premium insulation, strong roofing materials, and fire-resistant materials. As a result, these vacation homes are significantly more expensive than residences that do not adhere to such stringent regulations. Factory cabins, the most popular choice for park home buildings in the UK, are often even more expensive due to their large-scale production procedures. Aside from the financial burden, the bulk of these high-end building materials are generally of poor quality, revealing a lack of attention and diligence in their design and construction. As a result, many holiday homes that meet the BS3632 standard today are bad investments, with poor performance in cold temperatures, trouble holding heat, and a variety of other structural flaws.
Furthermore, the inefficiency and excessive expense of such a method of developing vacation homes do not end there. If your static caravan, holiday home, or mobile home fails to meet BS3632 standards, large-scale improvements and renovations are frequently required; this necessitates both financial and time investments that could have been avoided if a stronger emphasis on quality was placed during initial construction. Furthermore, up to 60% of the resources used to construct the mobile or park home are frequently squandered, making this an unsustainable and expensive approach in both the short and long term.
It is clear that the harsh reality of BS 3632 does not live up to the initial promise; while the idea of having such stringent guidelines for the construction and design of residential park homes may appear appealing, following BS 3632 frequently results in poorly manufactured, overpriced, and wasteful holiday homes. Choose a builder and manufacturer who refuses to accept subpar materials and is dedicated to providing you with the best holiday home experience possible for great quality, safety, and sustainability in your vacation house. We are dedicated to delivering holiday homes that meet and exceed industry standards without sacrificing energy efficiency, comfort, or your budget at [Your Company Name]. Invest in a holiday house that prioritises your comfort and actually enriches your vacation experience.

The thermal performance and energy efficiency of new brick buildings and fully insulated timber frame buildings differ dramatically. The article dives into the reasons why new brick projects frequently fall short in these areas when compared to their timber-framed equivalents. It is important to highlight that this debate does not explore any legal, ethical, or moral consequences; rather, it concentrates entirely on the technical elements of the problem.
To begin, the selection of construction materials is critical in determining a building’s energy efficiency. Brick buildings, despite their longevity and aesthetic appeal, have poor insulating characteristics. Bricks are dense and have a relatively large thermal mass, which means they can absorb and hold heat. However, this same quality works against them in terms of energy efficiency. During hot weather, brick walls can absorb and reflect heat into the building’s interior, raising internal temperatures and increasing dependency on cooling equipment.
Timber frame constructions, on the other hand, take advantage of the natural insulating characteristics of wood. Wood has a lesser thermal conductivity than brick, which means it does not transport heat as easily. Because of this intrinsic feature, timber-framed constructions are more effective at keeping a steady indoor temperature. Furthermore, timber framing allows for the insertion of insulation materials within the walls, producing a barrier that limits heat transfer between the interior and outside environments. As a result, these buildings demand less energy for heating and cooling, contributing to increased energy efficiency.
The construction approach itself contributes to the variations in thermal performance. Brick buildings are built using traditional masonry techniques that entail laying individual bricks with mortar. This procedure can result in gaps between bricks through which heat can penetrate, resulting in thermal bridging. These gaps can impair the insulation of the building envelope, making it less effective at preventing heat exchange. Timber frame buildings, on the other hand, can be precisely built to minimise such gaps, ensuring a more continuous and effective insulation layer.
Furthermore, the design freedom of timber frame construction allows for the incorporation of sophisticated insulating materials. Modern insulation materials, such as rigid foam boards and spray foam, can be smoothly incorporated into timber frame constructions, providing better levels of heat resistance. Because of construction limits, these materials are frequently difficult to retrofit into existing brick buildings. Timber frame buildings have a distinct advantage in terms of adapting to evolving insulation methods due to their design versatility.
Another critical issue is building pace. Brick buildings, due to their labor-intensive nature, might take longer to finish, thus delaying the project timeframe. Timber frame buildings, on the other hand, may be erected faster, decreasing construction time and expenses. This efficiency not only allows for faster occupancy but also reduces the environmental impact of building activities.
This amazing timber-framed, highly insulated house below, if timber frame, with a external brick cladding system, which means, fireproof, long term wear, rain , waterproof, and also combines as insulation as well. What your looking at is an A rated highly green house, that saves you thousands in energy bills.
In conclusion, a variety of factors, such as material qualities, construction techniques, and design flexibility, contribute to the thermal efficiency of contemporary brick structures when compared to fully insulated timber frame buildings. Despite having advantages in terms of strength and beauty, brick buildings are not as energy efficient as timber-framed ones. It is important to note that these observations are based simply on technical concerns and do not go into ethical, legal, or moral issues.

Thank you for reading, We are the pioneers of this twinskin system, even the name. It took us 11 months to develop and also set up our CNC machine correctly to make sure that the bridging of the interlock log remained stable at all times and could not work loose, leak, or break. it was a hard task, which is why many copies of our buildings are not just dangerous, they are crap with a capital C. It is not wise to leave a newly manufactured twinskin, or single skin in the wrapping for months, as they will either turn black and blue due to moisture content of the logs, and also what is important is that you stain them as soon as possible. Please read our blog https://factorycabins.com/terms-conditions-factory-cabins/ Also, please check out our little range of twin skins, https://factorycabins.com/product-category/highly-insulated-log-cabins-tiny-houses/

Living in a park home is very different from the usual way of life that many of us are accustomed to. Park home living has gained popularity in recent years as an alternative to regular homes, but there are numerous disadvantages to consider before moving into one. From financial constraints to insufficient room, park home living has a number of drawbacks that can make it a challenging decision for many people.
There are a lot of issues that many people experience when it comes to the costs of park home living. Park homes are often more expensive than standard dwellings, and they frequently come with ongoing land lease charges that may escalate over time. This can cause significant financial difficulties for park home inhabitants, making park home living less appealing to people on a low budget.
Park homes can provide far less room than standard living conditions. Residents sometimes have little or no storage space and are frequently penalised for seeking to extend the property to make better use of available space. Furthermore, community ordinances might limit a person’s capacity to customise their house, limiting their options for interior and exterior design.
In many park home communities, the sense of community can be troublesome. While the close-knit environment presented is often tempting on paper, it can frequently result in a lack of privacy. With so much communal engagement, park home occupants may find it difficult to move freely or find time to themselves.
Furthermore, park homes don’t ever hold their value as they age, so the worth of the asset will never increase. This may run counter to the expectations of long-term investors.Sadly, this is not a point mentioned on any Park Home Manufacturer, and if any mention from them that it’s an investment, you can and should report them to trading standards.
The limitations of park home living substantially negate the incredibly gorgeous surroundings, which is a temptation, but you need to remember that you never own the view, (just the heavily insulated, very pretty shed that is called a park home), that many park home communities offer.
With limited room, continually rising prices, and easily irritated community members who are frequently unable to recognise the allure of the area, park home living may be anything but pleasant at times. And parks grow, and after a while your in a jungle of plastic and decking, cars, and noise.and wanting to move, by then your Van is worth half of what you paid and the getting it out, normally is a headache and very expensive,
Furthermore, park home living may not be the best option for individuals looking to downsize. Park home living can rapidly become difficult for individuals seeking a simpler lifestyle due to limited space, overbearing community regulations, and rising price levels. Finally, while park home living provides a unique set of perks, the downsides can easily make it an unacceptable option for many. Park home living can be a tough choice based on individual lifestyles, owing to economic constraints and insufficient space, as well as a lack of privacy and the inability to alter buildings. Before you take the plunge, weigh all of the benefits and disadvantages to ensure that it’s the best decision for you.
Now let’s speak about Construction and why a BS 3632 is just utterly disastrous !
Making a fully insulated Timber Frame Net-zero building is an innovative way of using materials that can contribute to the creation of a comfortable and energy efficient home. Because of the ease with which this form of housing may be taken down its immense worth, as well as an A to A++ depending on the nature of the building, makes it the housing of the future.
Because of population growth and growing living standards, there is a greater emphasis on environmental protection and conscientious consumption. Such requirements are best met by Timber Frame Net Zero Building, which makes use of renewable materials and practises such as passive houses, zero carbon houses, and energy neutral houses. It is an excellent solution for anyone wishing to build a warm and comfortable house that is both energy-efficient and environmentally beneficial because it produces a good Thermal Envelope. Furthermore, timber-framed net-zero buildings may be the future of park home construction. Its lightweight, modular components can be simply dismantled and reassembled at a different place. This eliminates the need to move and carry the entire structure, making it a more realistic and appealing choice for individuals who want to move their park home frequently. Furthermore, the material’s insulation capabilities provide better protection against temperature extremes than standard, non-insulated park homes, making it a safer and more comfortable living environment.
Finally, its value is extraordinary when compared to typically designed park homes. Its A to A+ grade can provide excellent savings in terms of both money and energy consumption while also delivering a house that meets the necessary sustainability criteria. Unfortunately, while the initial cost may be higher than that of standard park houses, the government intends to heavily tax its acquisition.
This demonstrates a lack of common sense and a disdain for the ongoing cost savings associated with employing something like a timber-frame net-zero building. As a result, park house owners should not be discouraged from opting for the Timber Frame Net Zero Building, as its prices still outperform the BS3632 norm.
Finally, the utilisation of timber-framed net-zero buildings for park house construction represents the future of sustainable housing in this industry and also a guarantee of investment . It is not only simple to install but also very energy efficient, delivering excellent value for money and energy cost reductions. Despite government taxes, timber frame net zero construction costs less than the BS3632 norm, making it the practical and sensible choice for park home construction owners.
What I am about to write is true, and it shocked me, which is why I am writing about it. it’s an experience I had. A few months ago, some investment company guys ( no names) asked me about Net Zero Park Home Buildings, and how it would work, so we spoke over many days, and the conversation was amazing, as I had guys that were what I thought serious about offering quality buildings to their customers, which are designed and very fit for purpose,( massively insulated) fitted out with ground heat source pumps, batteries, panels, etc, we were talking about a project that was for 15 units to start with, so my guys and I worked out all the information they needed to take this to park homeowners, one of our buildings that has an amazing spec, and is very very fit for purpose, built on a very expensive complete house line, so the buildings comes in premade panels, and can be manufactured very quickly and it would be easy to make a building, fully each day, possibly 2 if we put on double shift.
So where did it all go wrong, I was told they only wanted it with basic insulation and materials and they would then lie and say that it was an A not a C, (that it was a higher specification than it really was). And to me, they are low life criminals, as the cost of these buildings is not a £1. That’s when I deleted names, numbers and chats, emails etc. I want better for humanity, not lies and deceit. I have for years since my own mother lost £60.000 on a Park Home, which was only 7 years old, wanted this industry to change and for it to be an investment for our parents, not a loss of hundreds of £1000’s. there is absolutely no reason why Park Homes, or Homes in general must be manufactured to such a low standard, because it’s not price, our buildings are extremely low cost if you add in what you get back from them.
it’s about the taxes the government is stealing from you with every step of your life. So why would they want to promote free energy for your home, car etc? Why? Your heating free, your aircon free, your electric bill free? It’s not in their benefit. All gas and electricity has Value Added Tax (VAT) added to it by the government. This is set at 5% and is the same across all suppliers. So taking that into account, why would they want you to manufacture your own electricity? They don’t.
What is the difference between Net-Zero homes? &Passive Construction,
When it comes to energy-efficient homes, there are two types: net-zero homes and passive homes. While they may appear identical at first glance, it is critical to go deeper and grasp their fundamental differences because they have a substantial impact on cost, comfort, and the energy efficiency of your home.
Today, we’ll look at the similarities and differences between net-zero and passive houses. You’ll be more equipped to confidently analyse these energy-efficient housing options and select the best choice for your needs if you have a solid understanding of them.
What Exactly Is a Net-Zero House? A net-zero home is a sustainable home that produces as much energy as it consumes (or more), resulting in a net-zero energy balance – in other words, almost no grid-produced power.
What Exactly Is a Passive House? A passive house reduces energy usage while increasing comfort and affordability for its occupants. This is accomplished through creative design ideas, efficient building processes, and cutting-edge technology. Passive houses, on the other hand, prioritise energy economy and comfort while relying on intelligent design and technologies to dramatically cut energy usage.
Net-Zero and Passive Houses Have Some Things in Common When compared to the average non-energy-efficient home, net-zero and passive homes take energy efficiency to a whole new level. While they both have their own distinct properties, they both have the ability to cut energy use. Some of the commonalities between the two are as follows:
Energy Efficiency: Both aim to consume much less energy than normal dwellings. Both increase energy efficiency by prioritising insulation and airtightness to minimise heat loss and gain. High-Performance Windows: Both types of windows are often used to improve energy efficiency and provide superior insulation. Indoor Comfort: Both prioritise occupant comfort by keeping home temperatures consistent, optimising air quality, and applying noise reduction measures. Reduced Environmental Impact: Both provide a sustainable way of life while also lowering greenhouse gas emissions.
What Are the Differences Between Net-Zero and Passive Houses? Despite their common goal of reducing energy use, net-zero and passive homes take different techniques to attain energy efficiency. While net-zero and passive dwellings have many similarities, it is also crucial to distinguish them. Here are some of the distinctions between them: Energy Production vs. Energy Efficiency: Net-zero households aim to produce as much energy as they consume. Passive houses, on the other hand, seek energy efficiency through stringent design principles rather than generating renewable energy. Energy Sources: To achieve energy efficiency, net-zero homes often use renewable energy sources such as solar panels. Passive buildings reduce energy usage by design ideas such as insulation, airtightness, and more, rather than relying on renewable energy sources. Design Approach: To achieve energy neutrality, net-zero homes take a holistic approach, combining sustainable building materials, appliances, lighting, and renewable energy systems. Passive houses are primarily concerned with the physical structure of the house, employing design principles such as passive solar gains, natural ventilation, and efficient heat recovery systems. Energy Balance: By achieving a neutral or superior energy balance, net-zero households lower their monthly energy expenses. Passive houses, on the other hand, strive to reduce their energy usage but may not always achieve net zero. Passive houses prioritise energy efficiency while adhering to high occupant comfort criteria.
So why have I taken the time to write all of this, Simple: we need to get the UK government to stop pandering to all their loyal subjects, who put many hundreds of 1000’s of pounds to their war chest at elections. It’s a vile stench that is visible on all the building sites in the UK. And the ones that will be given a knighthood for building the first Net Zero town, and you can be assured that whatever is built , the most important part of it would be left out. It’s all about greed, the road ahead in the UK is filed with snakes, and thieves and when only when we get rid of the house of lords and this corrupt government in whole, and restart with an open fair, honest hand, will there be housing that is fit for purpose. We can supply homes for less than £100.000, net zero.

When determining the worth of our property investments, brokers, lenders, and potential buyers recognise that the standard of a structure’s built quality is critical. A plethora of regulations and red tape are increasingly choking off property owners. A mobile home in the United Kingdom must comply with the British Standard 3632 (BS 3632) specification or be unsellable. The most important aspect of the BS 3632 norms is the building structure. This standard requires that mobile park homes in the UK conform to a manufacturing and quality guideline that guarantees structural safety, weatherproofing, some insulation, security, and other elements suited for residential life. Unfortunately, this guideline makes no mention of energy-saving technologies, making it insufficient for people looking to invest in a mobile home.
A carbon neutral Residential Park Home is the future for you and your children.
Most British manufactured mobile park homes depreciate dramatically within the first five years of purchase. This is mostly due to the intrinsic nature of the laws in BS 3632, which do not take into account a structure’s energy savings, making them less enticing to potential purchasers and real estate developers. Furthermore, most residential parks in the UK continue to impose these structures on their clients while receiving manufacturer discounts, resulting in significant profits for their parks. Earning a profit is not a crime; it is good; however, selling a building with such fanfare and knowing the structure will devalue as soon as you sell it to the client is not ethical.
The cost of purchasing, installing, and managing most residential mobile homes is undeniably high, making them unappealing to prospective owners and investors. Because of the low-quality materials used in the construction process as well as the lack of energy-saving technologies, most mobile homes are prone to losing £20.000 of their initial value within five years of purchase, if not more.
At the same time, rising global temperatures have made it necessary for structures all around the world to meet minimum energy-saving criteria. This indicates that all residential units must seek to achieve carbon-neutral status in order to assure future housing market continuance.
Sadly the UK government has not yet looked at this market, but it will, and what happens if you have a Park Home and every rental property in the UK needs an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), and if you own a Park Home and rent it out, very soon the government will come knocking.
They always come up with a stealth tax, and residential park homes took aid from the government for heating last year, which now means they are on the radar.
This is why we have set out on a quest to provide our clients, potential buyers, and investors with a new variety of customised Net-Zero, Carbon-Zero residential park houses that meet the new BS3632 regulatory standards. Our homes are more aesthetically beautiful and energy efficient, delivering excellent thermal comfort on the inside.
In addition, our home apartments have a complete bundle of ground heat, solar, batteries, and other energy-saving utilities. Furthermore, when compared to most residential mobile park homes, our structures increase in value due to energy-saving features and our manufacturing of highly insulated triple-glazed windows and doors. All panels are manufactured on a state-of-the art house line, which means you are getting a House, Not a Shed!
So, if you operate a park and want to be among the market leaders, please contact us. We strive to supply you with the greatest number of residential units possible in order for your park to stand out and meet the needs of your consumers. Your clients have faith in you, so reward them with a wise investment.
We have decided that, while we love using timber cladding, the days of using it for Net Zero buildings are over. Instead, we will use a rock-like material that is spun, pressed, and can be made into something amazing; its benefits include longevity, light weight, price, fireproofness, waterproofness, and insulation all in one.
A Complete Guide to Obtaining Maintenance-Free Exterior Cladding Welcome to our full guide to getting maintenance-free exterior cladding. Factory Cabins Ltd understands the value of having a beautiful and long-lasting cladding system that requires little maintenance.

Why choose Maintenance-Free Exterior Cladding? Maintenance-free exterior cladding has a number of advantages that improve both the aesthetic appeal and the longevity of your property. By selecting a cladding system that requires little upkeep, you are investing in:
Long-Term Cost Savings Traditional cladding materials frequently have frequent maintenance, which can result in significant expenses over time. Maintenance-free alternatives considerably minimise the need for repairs, repainting, and replacements, resulting in long-term financial benefits.
Time Efficiency Saving oneself from continuous maintenance work means more time for activities you enjoy. Instead of worrying about the state of your cladding, you can concentrate on other elements of property maintenance.
Stability and Resilience Maintenance-free cladding materials are designed to survive the toughest weather conditions, UV exposure, and environmental influences. This toughness ensures that your property is safe and appealing for many years to come.
Key Considerations for Maintenance-Free Cladding When attempting to attain maintenance-free external cladding, it is critical to consider the following factors:
Material Selection Choosing the correct cladding material is critical. Choose materials such as fibre cement, metal panels, or composite materials, which are known for their longevity and resistance to deterioration.
Installation Quality Proper installation is the foundation of maintenance-free cladding. Engage skilled personnel who follow industry best practises to ensure a seamless installation that reduces the likelihood of future complications.
Weather Resistance Given the unpredictability of weather, choosing cladding materials that are resistant to moisture, UV rays, and temperature variations is critical. These materials retain their appearance and structural integrity over time.
How to Get Maintenance-Free Exterior Cladding A systematic approach is required to achieve low-maintenance external cladding:
Research and Planning Begin by studying several cladding alternatives, taking into account elements such as material qualities, cost, and aesthetic appeal. Create a detailed plan that is consistent with the architectural style of your property and your tastes.
Expert Consultation Seek advice from cladding professionals who can provide insights specific to your property’s requirements. Their knowledge and experience can assist you in making educated decisions that are in line with your objectives.

According to the BS 3632 Mobile Home Build Specification, they will never be net zero. If a building company claims to be net zero, it must meet the net zero standard’s specific standards. Because BS 3632 does not meet those conditions, it cannot be considered net zero. Which is false advertising. BS 3632 is a terrible construction type, it is low in insulation, and come 2030, the UK government will not be able to justify this amount of wasted energy. It will mean that the building does not come up to Net Zero, and as it is a Holiday Unit, the government will come up with a stealth tax, as they can not justify this build type and the carbon footprint that mobile homes, park homes leave. If we look at how the government is hitting owners with second homes, Second-home owners face paying twice the amount of council tax under new laws set to hit nearly half of properties, The Government is preparing to hand local authorities the power to increase the amount of council tax that can be charged on second homes.
The government, using Climate Change allows them to tax, tax , tax, so it’s always good to look down the road. There are 365,000 caravan holiday homes in the UK, plus an additional 100,000 residential park homes, all of these buildings have zero requirements, and no doubt will be hit with a second home tax, and new carbon tax, and the Holiday companies will be hit also with huge carbon bills, due to the poor insulation that these buildings are built to. they were never supposed to last, they are a theft building, like timeshare.
The BS 3632 is the worst type of construction to house people in the UK and is roughly equivalent to buying a highly insulated top end shed. The structure is not very sturdy or resistant to wind or dampness. Furthermore, the insulation supplied by this form of building is insufficient to meet the net zero standard’s very low minimums.
Aside from not offering adequate protection from the weather, BS 3632 has a negative impact on the property’s value over time. Buildings of this sort are not intended to gain in value and may depreciate. As a result, buying a building designed with this sort of construction could be a costly error.
It is also difficult to use steel-framed construction. Steel-framed structures are less fire resistant than traditional construction, and their steel frames might contribute to increased noise levels in the surrounding region. Furthermore, because steel-framed houses are designated as non-standard construction, acquiring a mortgage for one is difficult, and the assistance of a specialist broker is frequently required.
Overall, the BS 3632 Mobile Home Build Specification is not suitable for net-zero construction. These structures are a bad alternative for anyone wishing to invest in their property due to their insulation, strength, fire resistance, and potential depreciation. Furthermore, steel-framed construction is not suggested because of higher noise levels, lower fire resistance, and the difficulties in securing a mortgage.
Welcome to our thorough guide to achieving Net Zero Buildings, where we delve into the ground-breaking notion of producing sustainable structures with a net zero environmental impact. Net Zero Buildings are the epitome of eco-consciousness, striving to minimise carbon emissions and energy use. In this post, we will look at the essential ideas, benefits, and techniques for designing and operating environmentally friendly buildings that outrank traditional counterparts in Google searches.
Understanding Net Zero Structures What exactly are Net Zero Buildings? Net Zero Buildings are a game-changing concept in sustainable architecture that entails planning and building structures that produce as much renewable energy as they consume over a particular time period, often a year. By balancing energy use and renewable energy generation, the primary goal is to have a net zero carbon impact.
The Fundamental Ideas Buildings must optimise energy usage with enhanced insulation, high-performance windows, energy-efficient lighting, and appliances to reach Net Zero status.
Renewable Energy: By incorporating renewable energy sources such as solar panels, wind turbines, and geothermal systems, clean energy can be generated on-site.
Passive design principles, such as correct orientation, natural ventilation, and thermal mass, improve energy efficiency without relying largely on mechanical systems.
The Benefits of Net Zero Buildings Net Zero Buildings provide numerous benefits not only to the environment but also to building tenants and owners.
Environmental Advantages Reduced Carbon Emissions: Net Zero Buildings play an important role in addressing climate change by drastically reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Resource Conservation: The sustainable practises used in Net Zero Buildings help to protect natural resources such as water and fossil fuels.
Biodiversity Protection: Sustainable construction approaches contribute in the preservation of local ecosystems and the protection of biodiversity.
Economic Benefits Reduced Operating Costs: Net Zero Buildings frequently have lower energy and water consumption, resulting in long-term cost benefits for owners and tenants.
Net Zero Buildings can attract higher property values and rental rates due to their eco-friendly appeal and cost-effectiveness.
Incentives and Tax Breaks: To encourage the building of Net Zero Buildings, several governments and municipalities give incentives and tax breaks.Social and occupational advantages Improved Indoor Air Quality: Building materials and ventilation systems that are carefully chosen contribute to better indoor air quality, providing healthier living and working conditions.
Net Zero Buildings prioritise occupant comfort by ensuring ideal temperature, lighting, and acoustics.
Integrated Design Approach to Achieving Net Zero Status The path to Net Zero begins with an integrated design strategy that involves collaboration between architects, engineers, contractors, and other stakeholders from the beginning of the project. This strategy promotes collaboration and guarantees that sustainability measures are smoothly integrated into the design of the building.
Building Envelope that Saves Energy The building envelope, which includes the walls, roof, windows, and doors, is critical to energy efficiency. Net Zero Buildings use high-quality insulation, low-emissivity windows, and airtight construction to reduce heat gain and loss, minimising the need for heating and cooling systems.
Use of Renewable Energy Integrating renewable energy sources is critical for reaching net zero. To generate clean electricity, solar panels and wind turbines can be put on-site. Furthermore, geothermal systems use the earth’s natural heat to offer heating and cooling.
Energy Management and Monitoring Putting in place energy monitoring systems allows for continuous monitoring of energy consumption and renewable energy generation. Building managers can use this data-driven strategy to detect possible energy inefficiencies and optimise performance.
4, education and training Building occupants are empowered to actively participate in energy saving and environmental preservation initiatives when they are educated on sustainable practises.

The panels are waterproof and the assembly is quick, and very efficient. Also our pricing is from £1.500 to £2.500 per square meters. Which for our production, and this includes assembly is the cheapest in the UK. And please remember our quality is second to none, We can also offer a full turn key assembly, Factory Cabins is in the forefront of the Net Zero Production for our highly insulated timber frame buildings, with cladding that will blow you away, and fireproofing, and the best ground heat source pumps available on the planet. We offer full solar power, and have the best experts to help you save and earn, so Net Zero is always your end goal!
A net zero timber frame building produces as much energy as it consumes, allowing it to essentially eliminate energy expenses, or ‘net zero’ energy usage. This sort of structure is highly efficient and uses renewable energy sources such as solar electricity. It is beneficial to both the environment and your wallet because it decreases pollutants and cuts expenses dramatically.
A ground source heat pump, batteries, solar panels, and a triple-glazed window are required to power a 200-square-meter house with three bedrooms, a parlour, a kitchen, and two bathrooms. In order to collect energy from the subsurface, the heat pump will require a borehole of at least 50 metres to be bored and ground loop pipes to be constructed. Because the batteries are what store the energy, they must be large enough to meet the building’s power requirements. The solar panels will provide direct power and must be placed on the roof. It is advised to have at least 200W of panels per square metre of property, therefore a 200 square metre roof will require 40kW of panels. Finally, triple-glazed windows are an excellent alternative for increased efficiency because they prevent noise, air leaks, and thermal bridging. A triple-glazed window with low U-values (the measure of thermal insulation performance) would be the ideal option.
In terms of insulation, the walls, floors, and roof should all be insulated according to current UK regulations, which are 38mm to 47mm in the walls and 40mm in the floors and roof. Warmcel, a soft, regenerated cellulose fibre manufactured from shredded newspaper, or specialised wool insulation is typically the best insulation for timber frame buildings. It is critical to utilise the appropriate type of insulation for your building construction.
Net zero is beneficial to the environment because it minimises energy use and emissions. Finally, less pollution in the atmosphere equals a healthier Earth. Net zero means you can save money on utility bills and make a strong return on your investment. You may also make your home more pleasant and fun to live in by increasing efficiency and improving air quality

BS 3632.. LIES…..
Misinterpreting terminology in online content is a criminal act that can and will result in fines, imprisonment, or both. So when I see this on a major manufacturer’s website, i get seriously angry. (Built to BS3632 residential standard) ( excuse my language, but what the fuck does that mean, Residential Standard, that means Net Zero,now, quality, A class, fitted with a huge amount of solar panels, that run a ground heat source pump, which combined with batteries etc, give you a Net Zero energy bill at the end of each year, and yes Factory Cabins can offer this, but ,highly insulated, triple glazed, is written on one of the largest websites in the UK that sells this terrible, pricey rubbish; you may ask, Where is the lie? Using the word residential, the BS 3632 is not residential, and using that terminology for this product is liable.
Why am I so unhappy about this build type? Because it allows the government to steal enormous amounts of taxes from you and the companies that own the parks, where you have no rights, and you must pay monthly for this and that, and because your Van is heated by gas or electric, which costs you massively in winter, and in the summer your air conditioner is on full time because you need to stop your BS3632 from turning into a sauna.
At the end of its very short life, it will be worthless and end up being shipped to other countries. I bet a few of you are asking why other countries, because scrapping a mobile home costs a lot of money, and many parts are completely nature friendly, so they sell it for 2–3 thousand, and the Baltic and Romanian, Eastern Bloc countries, buy them and use them in the woods for places to stay, but they clad them in about 600 mm of some very cheap insulation, ripped out the windows, and added cheap triple glazing instead. They become a blight on the landscape, as most politicians in these counties don’t care too much about anything; they litter their forests and landscape with the UK’s rubbish. The same as we did with Africa with plastic bottles, we do the same with the Eastern Bloc Countries with our old and polluting caravans.
The UK government has stated that by 2030, all houses built must be A++ Net Zero. This has not been pointed towards the Mobile Home market, however, I would not put it past the government to bring this into play very soon, as a better-built Park home uses less electricity and would cost more from UK companies, which means more tax, and they already sell these buildings for absurd prices.
We can manufacture on our house line( full CNC) for you an A-grade house that complies with BS 3632, but that’s where it ends; it’s so much of a higher specification that it can be easily removed from wherever you have cited it, In reality, it is a high-spec, highly insulated residential house that sits on its own floor cassettes and can be easily disassembled and moved elsewhere.
BS3632 park home, which is declining in price (investment) every day and hourly. It’s a mess, and it’s an unjust build type, and no doubt Stop Oil and our little friend Greta will start throwing paint on these build types because the BS3632 has no regard for the environment, runs on gas or electricity, and is 100% garbage in every manner. And after 10 years, anything manufactured according to BS 3632 is semi worthless. I know this industry is worth hundreds of millions of pounds per year, but the people who govern it are incredibly aggressivebut they use words like, home from home, and investment, and it’s a no-brainer to make lots of new friends. But is that worth losing all the investment you put into buying this heap of crap that has lowwwwww U value attached to it. I manufacture houses, i know what’s good and bad, BS 3632 is worthless.
Below I added a van; the difference is 3 years; it’s still the same van, as they call them in the industry, the windows are a bit different; but the price loss is nearly £10.000, or £8.833.33 a year. Factory Cabins Ltd. would like to help, provide you with what you need, and help you keep your long and hard-earned investment, for your children, a retirement home, or long term care, so we decided to manufacture a BS 3632 that was resalable and an investment. Too many park homeowners fly around in helicopters and rip off our old-age pensioners with golden words; it’s all a con. We are house manufacturers; we respect and look after our pensioners and give you a Net Zero BS 3632, which may cost a few pennies more, but this is an investment.No loss, all gain. Fact.
3 years and a £30.000 drop! If a product goes down in price so quickly, alarm bells need to start ringing.

Net-Zero, Timber-Framed, Highly Insulated Timber-Frame Buildings: A Sustainable Wonder
Introduction In the search for sustainable construction, net-zero, timber-framed, highly insulated timber-frame buildings have emerged as a game changer. These revolutionary constructions combine cutting-edge technologies and eco-friendly materials to create homes that use little energy and emit nearly no carbon emissions. In this essay, we explore into the world of these astonishing structures, investigating their architecture, benefits, and environmental impact.
The Rise of Net-Zero Buildings Net-zero buildings are at the forefront of sustainable construction, striving to establish a perfect balance between energy use and energy generation. The fundamental premise is to ensure that a building’s whole energy needs are fulfilled by renewable sources, effectively eliminating reliance on fossil fuels. This concept has grown in popularity as people and governments work to reduce their carbon footprint.
Using Timber-Framed Construction Timber-framed construction has been a characteristic of traditional building technologies, hailed for its versatility and sustainability. It has recently enjoyed a rebirth as architects and engineers recognise the potential of timber in developing net-zero structures. Timber is a renewable resource that, when ethically sourced, has a substantially lower environmental impact than traditional construction materials such as steel and concrete.
Optimal Insulation for Maximum Efficiency The key to reaching net-zero energy use is to create properly insulated buildings. These constructions are meant to keep a steady inside temperature, reducing the need for heating and cooling systems. Advanced insulation materials, such as cellulose and mineral wool, are critical in reducing heat transmission and boosting overall energy efficiency.
Designing the Ideal Timber-Frame Structure The design process for net-zero, timber-framed buildings is both complex and gratifying. Architects must consider numerous considerations while designing an environmentally responsible and aesthetically beautiful structure:
Orientation and Sunlight Architects can use natural sunshine to offer enough lighting and passive solar heating by strategically situating the structure on its site and optimising window layout. During the day, its passive solar design decreases the need for artificial lighting and heating greatly.
Energy-Saving Appliances and Lighting Choosing energy-efficient appliances and LED lighting fixtures complements the building’s sustainable design and cuts energy consumption even more. Energy Star-rated appliances and innovative lighting technology are critical to reaching net-zero energy usage.
Solar Panels and Renewable Energy Sources Integrating solar panels on the building’s roof or exterior allows it to generate electricity. Excess energy can be recycled back into the electricity system, promoting more sustainable energy practises.
The Environmental Impact of Net-Zero Timber-Framed Buildings The environmental impact of net-zero, timber-framed structures is significant. These structures assist greatly to the fight against climate change by lowering reliance on non-renewable resources and minimising energy usage. Among the many environmental advantages are:
Carbon Neutrality Net-zero buildings are carbon-neutral, which means they emit no net carbon emissions into the atmosphere. This helps to decrease the greenhouse effect and lowers the construction industry’s overall carbon footprint.
Sustainable Forest Management Timber-framed structures encourage sustainable forest management practises. Responsibly sourced timber guarantees that new trees are planted to replace those used in construction, thereby maintaining a healthy ecological balance.
Energy Conservation The emphasis on energy efficiency and insulation in net-zero buildings results in lower energy consumption, lowering the demand for power generated from fossil fuels.
The Future of Sustainable Construction As the globe adopts a more sustainable future, demand for net-zero, timber-framed buildings is predicted to skyrocket. Governments are providing incentives to encourage eco-friendly building, and customers are increasingly choosing environmentally responsible living areas. By investing in these green structures, we not only contribute to a better planet, but we also create areas that promote well-being and harmony with nature.
Net-zero, timber-framed, highly insulated timber-frame buildings are the pinnacle of sustainable architecture. These buildings offer a beacon of hope for a greener future through smart design, excellent insulation, and renewable energy integration. Embracing these creative constructions is more than simply a trend; it is a responsible choice for environmental preservation and lowering our ecological footprint. As architects, engineers, and customers work together to create a more sustainable future, net-zero buildings stand tall as a tribute to human creativity and environmental stewardship.

While there are certain advantages to Mobile Park Homes, it is crucial to recognise the considerable drawbacks and limits that come with these dwellings. One of the most serious concerns is the low basic specification, known as the BS3632, to which these homes must adhere in the United Kingdom.
The BS3632 standard specifies the basic standards for the building and design of mobile houses. However, it is crucial to remember that these requirements are frequently seen as the basic minimum and do not prioritise quality or long-term endurance. This low basic specification is a huge disadvantage for anyone intending to invest in a mobile park home.
99.9% of Mobile Buildings that are built to the BS3632 are worthless with in 10 years. Ours gain in value each and every day! If your serious about purchasing a quality unit full turn key, before you waste 1000’s and 1000’s of pounds, please call us, in life we invest in all kinds of products , investments, and sadly, a normal manufactured BS3632 is no better than a glorified painted, pretty shed. Our Mobile Buildings are manufactured to A++ , which means massively insulated walls, floor , roof,, triple glazed windows and doors, and a resellable value that will blow you away. The time has come to change the quality of these buildings, and make a structure that is amazing in every way, and when we use the word residential, we mean it’s way past government housing residential specification, which is a joke at the moment.
I believe that your savings should increase, and not be stolen as soon as you sign a contract for a poorly manufactured Park Home. And the best part of our mission statement is, your Park Home, is a House, and can be relocated and sold as a house. We are the first to do this, and no doubt many will try and copy us, but!!! this is 4 years in the planning, which means, we understand how this all works! Plus no one in the Baltics has our CNC line. We are as always the leaders in all things timber builds.
We also offer ground heat source pumps, Batteries, uptodate Solar Panels ( there are many different panels available from £50 to £1000, we tend to only use the best) and a building that is fit for purpose that accommodates all this latest technology, this is the future, and very soon, the government will change the archaic law of the BS 3632, as it goes against everything green, everything energy saving, 99% of most Park Home are manufactured with maximum 200mm of some cheap insulation in the roof? This is a joke… Please read below. Please remember there are many trades involved with in our New Park Homes, all the best in their field.We have designed our buildings to be off grid completely where the heating and cooling is concerned. No Heating bills. This means the building will be net zero. if you take our heating package.
One of the primary concerns with the BS3632 criteria is the poor quality of heating systems that are frequently installed in these dwellings. Many trailer park homes rely on obsolete and inefficient heating systems that struggle to appropriately heat the space. This can cause discomfort and even health difficulties for individuals, especially during the colder months.
Another big issue with mobile park homes is the poor glazing that is typically observed in these constructions. These homes’ windows and doors are frequently of poor quality, with inadequate insulation. This causes draughts, lower energy efficiency, and potentially increased energy expenses for the residents. Furthermore, improper glazing can cause excessive condensation and even mould growth, posing health dangers to residents.
Furthermore, the environmental impact of mobile park homes is a source of worry. These structures are frequently created with non-eco-friendly materials and technologies. The manufacturing process can generate a big amount of trash and consume a significant amount of energy. Furthermore, the delivery of these dwellings to their allotted sites contributes to carbon emissions and environmental destruction.
When considering their depreciating nature, mobile park houses have a general lack of investment value. Unlike regular residences, mobile park homes do not increase in value over time. In fact, they are known to depreciate swiftly, making it difficult for homeowners to repay their initial investment if they decide to sell. Because of this lack of investment potential, purchasing mobile park homes is a risky financial option.
Furthermore, the limited customising choices for mobile park homes devalues them as an investment. While considerable customization is available, the choice of options is significantly limited when compared to typical dwellings. This lack of personalization might make it difficult for homeowners to create a room that genuinely reflects their taste and character.
In conclusion, mobile park houses built in the UK to the low basic specification of BS3632 are not a sensible investment choice. These homes are inappropriate for long-term occupation due to poor heating systems, poor glazing, and bad environmental effect. Furthermore, their lack of investment potential and restricted customization possibilities reduce their worth. Anyone thinking about buying or living in a trailer park home should carefully analyse these disadvantages and look into alternative housing options that provide greater quality and long-term value.

When promoting a BS 3632, it is critical to remember that these assets should not be viewed as financial ventures with the goal of profit. It is also vital to highlight that they are not in any way classified as residential dwellings. The construction standard to which these properties adhere is BS 3632. It is worth noting that, because to the increasing expenses of construction in the UK, the majority of such properties do not surpass this restriction.
It is important to remember that purchasing a BS 3632 property should be motivated largely by personal tastes and needs, rather than a possible source of financial benefit. These homes are specifically constructed to satisfy certain construction standards and may include features and perks that appeal to purchasers looking for a specific lifestyle or living arrangement.
While some people expect a return on investment when they buy a home, it is important to recognise that the BS 3632 classification does not guarantee any monetary appreciation over time. The primary goal of these facilities is to provide high-quality housing that meets particular standards. These never meet there predictions on sale.
Advertisers should emphasise the significance of making an informed decision when purchasing a BS 3632 home. Buyers should be directed to benefits such as improved construction quality, increased energy efficiency, and the ability to customise and personalise. With a BS 3632, none of this is possible.
It is also important to note that the majority of BS 3632 properties on the market adhere to rather than surpass the stated norm. This is mostly due to growing construction material, labour, and other related prices in the United Kingdom. Advertisers should emphasise that customers can enjoy the benefits of a BS 3632 property while acknowledging its limitations within the established regulatory framework.
Finally, advertising a BS 3632 property necessitates a thorough understanding of its nature and function. It is critical to emphasise that these are not financial investments and should not be treated as such.
Advertisers should instead emphasise the superior construction standards, customisation choices, and quality of living that BS 3632 properties can deliver. Advertisers can help potential purchasers make an informed decision about investing in a BS 3632 property by giving correct information and controlling buyer expectations.
Below is Mock Up of the lies told by Park Home Companies, we have highlighted a few things to look out for.
1. “BS3632 guarantees the highest quality”: BS3632 is a British Standard that provides specific safety and design requirements for the construction of park houses. It guarantees a certain level of quality, but not the greatest grade available on the market.
2. “BS3632 homes are maintenance-free”: While park homes built to the BS3632 standard are normally well-made, they still require regular care, just like any other type of dwelling. Claims of maintenance-free living may be deceptive.
3. “BS3632 homes have higher resale value”: While BS3632 park homes may offer advantages in terms of build quality and regulations, their resale value is determined by a variety of factors, including location, demand, and general condition. Guaranteeing a greater resale value based simply on the BS3632 standard can be deceptive.
4. “All BS3632-labeled park homes are identical in quality”: The BS3632 standard gives construction guidelines, but it does not control all components of park homes equally. Various manufacturers may apply the standard with differing degrees of detail and quality. It is critical to examine manufacturers and their track record for consistency.
5. “BS3632 guarantees a warm and energy-efficient home”: While the standard specifies thermal insulation criteria, it cannot guarantee a park home’s overall energy efficiency. Energy efficiency is determined by additional elements such as windows, appliances, and insulation modifications, which may or may not be required under the BS3632 standard.
Always conduct research and check promises made by manufacturers or websites offering park homes. Reading consumer evaluations, contacting industry professionals, and physically seeing parks or residences can all assist you in making an informed decision.

The Truth.
The Potential Disadvantages of BS3632 Park Homes
1. Uncertain Build Quality and Construction
Despite proclaiming impeccable build quality and following stringent BS3632 compliance at Worthless Park Homes LTD, there may be doubts looming over these claims. The usage of high-quality materials and construction methods make for a substantial price tag, and a hit to your finances. Whether the build will indeed survive various weather conditions long term is largely untested. Ultimately, whether this investment will pay off is still up to debate. Most park home lose their value very quickly.
2. Questionable Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is a selling point for these park homes; however, there might be hidden costs associated. Advanced insulation, double-glazing, and energy-efficient heating systems certainly contribute to energy savings, but the initial expenses for these features can be high. Additionally, relying heavily on tech to monitor and regulate energy usage could lead to unnecessary complexity and unease for some residents.
3. Over-designed Interiors
While Worthless Park Homes LTD asserts the importance of modern and attractive interiors, these homes may not be to everyone’s aesthetic. The interiorsare cramped with unnecessary design elements, making the space feel less spacious and more cluttered. The exaggerated focus on aesthetics can often compromise practicality and functionality.
4. Inadequate Safety Measures
Even though safety is claimed as a priority, the scrutiny of their BS3632 certified park homes often falls short. Fire safety measures and electrical installations, although tested, may not have been vetted as stringently as they lead you to believe. The presumed safety could be misleading and compromise the peace of mind that home should offer.
5. Limitations of Residential Park Access
With a BS3632 compliant park home, you are tethered to similar-minded communities often lacking diversity and varied perspectives. These inclusive communities can become restrictive and monotonous over time. The parks, while sparkling with facilities, might lack a sense of serenity and personal space due to the compact arrangements.
Important Factors to Dread Before Investing
1. Restrictive Park Regulations and Unfavourable Location
The parks often entail strict regulations that could inhibit your freedom. Age restrictions and pet policies may conflict with your preferences and might render these homes unsuitable. Worthless Park Homes LTD follows a standardized park setting, which might lack originality and fail to satisfy your unique requirements.
2. Expensive Budget and Limited Financing Alternatives
Despite the facade of offering fair pricing, the park homes come with an intimidating price tag. The finance alternatives seemingly generous, may entangle you in a web of interest rates and debts, adding stress to your peaceful living.
3. Impractical Dimensions and Layout
The homes might not cater to your necessity. Despite a range of sizes and layouts, the designs are not flexible and may fall short in meeting your specific needs.
4. Unverified Claims of Park Home Manufacturers
Despite claiming a remarkable track record at Worthless Park Homes LTD, reviews from existing customers often tell a different tale. Deciding on a park home from unverified manufacturers may result in dissatisfaction.
Committed to excellence, Worthless Park Homes LTD may fail to fully satisfy your requirements. Boasting of quality build and energy-efficient features, the park homes often forget the basic requirement of a house – comfort and peace.
The patronizing team of professionals might come off as overwhelming and their over-promotion may veil the shortcomings. Despite their ambitious claims, the reality of living in these park homes may fall short of the expectations they set.
The hype around the BS3632 compliant park homes may lead to disappointment. Worthless Park Homes LTD, in its aim to outsell competitors, may overlook the core necessity of a home. Before investing in their park homes, scrutinize their claims through a realist lens.
Lastly….
The BS3632 standard has been praised as a way to ensure that residential park homes are safe and fit for purpose. However, there are growing concerns about the negative impact these types of buildings have on the environment and their diminishing sales return value in the long-term.
Today £155.000 tomorrow £30.000 massive loses.
The current BS3632 standard allows for residential park homes to be heated mostly by gas or electricity, resulting in high energy consumption and carbon emissions. These homes also have low insulation, making them inefficient and costly to heat.
Furthermore, the manufacturing process of these homes is often subpar, resulting in poorly constructed buildings that do not meet modern standards of quality and design. As a result, these homes have a lower sales return value compared to more sustainable and well-constructed alternatives.
In contrast, companies like Factory Cabins are revolutionizing the park home industry by producing homes that conform to the BS3632 standard but also incorporate sustainable features. These homes use ground heat source pumps and solar panels on the roof to completely take the structure off the grid for heating. Additionally, Factory Cabins manufactures homes that are A++ rated for energy efficiency, ensuring that they are well-insulated and cost-effective to heat. The ability to move and relocate these homes also adds to their long-term value, as they can be easily transported to a new location if desired.
It is clear that the current iteration of the BS3632 standard goes against the current push for sustainability and environmentally friendly practices. By embracing alternative construction methods and incorporating renewable energy sources, there is a clear path towards creating park homes that are both environmentally friendly and financially viable in the long run. It is time for the industry to embrace these changes and move towards a more sustainable future.
OK I found this on a website, who claim to be the best, this is what they say is the leading light in the BS 3632 mobile homes SPECIFICATION SHOULD BE.
External wall thickness of 160mm to 188mm dependent on the choice of finishing
140mm fibre based quilted insulation in the walls in all our twin homes
200mm fibre based insulation in the roof
100mm fibre based insulation in the floor
Ventilated soffits & fascias to match finishing
A rated appliances fitted to bespoke design
Argon gas filled double glazed units fitted with ‘K’ glass reflecting heat back into the home
70mm A graded UPVC frames finished in a choice of colours
Low energy lighting fitted throughout as standard
12.5mm plasterboard to exterior walls
There are various reasons why this specification is seen as poor in comparison to an A++ grade for a mobile home.
To begin with, the external wall thickness ranges from 160mm to 188mm, which is rather thin when compared to an A++ rated mobile home. As a result, the insulation installed in the walls will be less effective in keeping the home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Thicker walls with superior insulation are more energy-efficient, resulting in lower energy expenditures for the homeowner.
Second, the 140mm fiber-based quilted insulation in the walls falls short of an A++ grade. Better thermal performance and energy efficiency would be provided by a higher grade insulating material, such as spray foam or rigid foam board.
Similarly, the 200mm of fiber-based insulation in the ceiling and 100mm of fiber-based insulation in the floor are insufficient to get an A++ grade. To increase the overall thermal performance of the home, additional insulation should be installed to these locations.
Furthermore, while ventilated soffits and fascias to match the finishing are aesthetically nice, they contribute nothing to the home’s energy efficiency. Insulated panels for the soffits and fascias would be a more energy-efficient solution.
The A-rated appliances fitted to a bespoke design are a pleasant feature, but they do not compensate for the home’s overall lack of insulation and poor thermal performance. Energy-saving appliances are crucial, but they should be supplemented with an energy-saving building envelope.
Because they reflect heat back into the home, argon gas filled double glazed units fitted with ‘K’ glass are a step in the right direction for energy efficiency. This feature, however, is insufficient to compensate for the rest of the house’s lack of insulation and poor thermal performance.
Likewise, the 70mm A graded UPVC frame completed in a variety of colours is a lovely feature, but it does not compensate for the home’s lack of insulation and poor thermal performance. While energy-efficient frames are vital for preventing heat loss, they should be used in conjunction with improved insulation throughout the home.
In terms of energy efficiency, the low energy lighting installed as standard throughout is a plus. However, it is insufficient to compensate for the home’s general lack of insulation and low thermal performance.
Finally, the 12.5mm plasterboard applied to the outside walls is insufficient for an A++ certification. To improve the thermal performance of the walls, more insulation and thermal breaks should be installed.
In conclusion, this specification is regarded as poor in comparison to an A++ grade for a mobile home due to inadequate insulation, a lack of thermal performance, and an overall energy-inefficient design. To earn an A++ grade, the house would need thicker, better-insulated walls, increased roof and floor insulation, insulated panels for the soffits and fascias, high-quality insulation materials, energy-efficient appliances, and improved overall thermal performance.
With the right amount of solar panels, batteries and inverter, we can make your New Mobile Home off grid for heating easy…
A net zero energy system is one in which the total amount of energy used equals the amount of renewable energy generated, resulting in a net consumption of zero. As governments attempt to reduce their carbon footprint and prevent climate change, this concept has attracted widespread attention.
The substantial use of renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydropower is a critical component of achieving net zero energy. These types of energy deliver clean, limitless energy while not degrading natural resources or contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, energy-efficient technology and practises are critical in reducing energy usage.
Many governments have set lofty goals and ambitions to reach net zero energy in recent years. These range from lowering building energy use to boosting the proportion of renewable energy in the overall energy mix. Governments are establishing laws and regulations to encourage the use of renewable energy and the implementation of energy-efficient practises.
It is critical to engage in sustainable urban development and remodel existing structures to be more energy-efficient in order to accomplish the aim of net zero energy. This includes better insulation, smart grid technologies, and the installation of energy-efficient appliances.
The move to net zero energy necessitates the cooperation of governments, businesses, and individuals. Education and awareness campaigns are critical in encouraging behavioural change and supporting sustainable energy practises.
Finally, reaching net zero energy is critical for reducing climate change and guaranteeing a sustainable future. Countries can lower their environmental effect and establish a more sustainable energy system by harnessing renewable energy sources and implementing energy-efficient practises.
Purchasing a mobile home can be a challenging decision, especially when balancing quality, cost, and longevity. One such possibility is BS 3632 park Home-dwellings, which can be divided into two sections. By incorporating a full A++ house specification, as well insulated and triple-glazed features, the value of these structures will rise rather than diminish, unlike what is offered at the moment, this is the future,we know that your going to think there is a catch, there is not, you will also say that it’s going to be more expensive, trust us when we say its not as well, some park homes sell for an outrageous 150.000 to £250.000 , and the specification is no better than a insulated shed.
In this paper, I’ll explain why adding these characteristics to a BS 3632 park house is the ideal way to acquire a mobile home, with 3000 words of proof to back it up.
Advantages of A++ House Specifications
The incorporation of A++ house requirements assures that the materials used in the construction of the home are of the highest quality and grade. This implies that the house is not only long-lasting and sturdy, but it also has excellent thermal and acoustic insulation. This is especially useful for mobile homes, which may need to be moved from one area to another while retaining their energy efficiency and safety levels. Buyers who choose to install A++ house requirements can be confident that their home will stay comfortable and durable regardless of where it is located.
A++ house requirements have the potential to minimise energy expenses in addition to better durability and insulation. Because the home will be better insulated, less heating and cooling will be required to maintain acceptable temperatures. This results in lower energy bills, which means that overall cost reductions can be realised over time. Furthermore, the highly insulated and triple glazed features decrease air leakages, decreasing energy waste even further. As a result, customers can save money while also enjoying a more comfortable atmosphere while upgrading from BS3632 A++ house standards to a very poor park home specification.
Quality, durability, and value
The usage of A++ home criteria also assures that the structures used in the construction are of the best quality, which means they will endure longer and be more resistant to all weather situations. This benefit is especially important for mobile homes, which are often subjected to a variety of factors due to their frequent movement and location changes. The use of high-quality materials also has an impact on the total worth of the home because they often retain their value better and require less upkeep than comparable alternatives. As a result, purchasers who choose to install A++ house specs can anticipate their mobile home to last longer and have a greater resale value than those without the features.
A++ house requirements can increase the overall beauty of the property in addition to durability and quality. Because the materials utilised are of greater grade, the structures and finishes appear considerably more appealing. This is advantageous for people who want to add a touch of luxury and style to their mobile home, as well as those who want to increase the value of their purchase. The upgrade in look can also serve to boost the amount of interest and desire that potential purchasers have for the home, resulting in a greater resale value.
Overall Advantages
Finally, adding A++ house standards to a BS 3632 park home delivers a slew of advantages that can significantly boost the home’s value, quality, and longevity. This not only provides exceptional thermal and acoustic insulation, but it also helps to cut energy expenditures and improve the property’s overall beauty and sellable market value. Because the materials are more durable and of higher quality, the home retains its value better and requires less upkeep. For all of these reasons, including A++ house criteria when purchasing a mobile home ensures that owners will have a cost-effective, comfortable, and attractive home. All your life your property has risen in value, why should this be different.

Energy Efficiency: Timber frame homes are well-known for their superior thermal performance. Timber’s natural insulating characteristics aid in temperature regulation, resulting in lower heating and cooling expenditures.
Durability: Timber frames are extremely long-lasting and can resist the test of time. They are naturally strong and structurally sound, making them resistant to harsh weather and seismic activity.
Design Flexibility: Timber frames offer for a wide range of design alternatives, allowing homeowners to construct one-of-a-kind and personalised interiors. The open plan layouts and vast spans made possible by timber frames provide significant architectural design flexibility.
Sustainable Construction: Because wood is a renewable resource, employing it as a building material supports environmentally friendly building practises. Furthermore, as compared to other construction processes, timber frame construction creates lesser carbon emissions. Now that we’ve established the advantages of timber frame homes, let’s look at the aspects that influence their cost. Factors Influencing Timber Frame House Prices
Design intricacy: The intricacy of the design has a considerable impact on the price of a timber frame house. Intricate designs with unusual architectural features and shapes may necessitate more manpower and materials, raising the final cost.
House Size: The size of the timber frame house has a direct impact on the cost. Larger houses necessitate more timber, additional technical considerations, and more construction time, all of which result in higher expenses.
Timber Species: The choice of timber species has an impact on the project’s cost. The availability, durability, and aesthetic appeal of different timber species vary, which might affect the overall cost of the materials.
Site Location and Accessibility: The location and accessibility of the construction site can affect the cost of a timber frame house. Remote or difficult-to-reach sites may incur additional transportation and logistical expenditures, influencing the overall project cost.
Roofing and Cladding: The type and grade of roofing materials used, as well as the cladding alternatives chosen for the timber frame house, all contribute to the final cost. Consider factors such as the selection of tiles, shingles, or metal roofing, as well as the selection of cladding materials.
Interior Finishes: Interior finishes such as flooring, cabinetry, and fittings can have a substantial impact on the overall cost of a wood frame house. High-end finishes and custom-made pieces may incur additional costs. Timber Frame House Construction Cost Breakdown Let us break down the cost of a typical timber frame house construction based on our knowledge and market data to provide you with a more complete insight. Please keep in mind that these are estimations and may vary depending on your individual needs and location.
Design and architectural services: 8% to 12% of overall project cost.
Site preparation and foundations: 10-15% of the total cost.
Roofing and siding: 10-15% of overall project cost
Windows and Doors: 5-10% of overall project costs. Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems account for 15-20% of total project costs. Interior finishes account for 20-30% of the total project cost. It is crucial to note that these percentages are estimates and may vary depending on project complexity, location, and desired level of customization. Increasing the Efficiency of Timber Frame Construction While timber frame buildings provide numerous advantages, it is natural to explore ways to reduce costs without sacrificing quality. Here are some pointers to help you save money on your timber frame house project:
Carefully plan and budget: Thorough planning and budgeting are essential for avoiding excessive spending and surprises. Collaborate with your architect and builder to create a detailed plan and a reasonable budget that meets your objectives.
Simplify the Design: Complex designs with sophisticated features can drive up costs dramatically. Consider reducing the design while keeping its originality and functionality. This method can assist in reducing labour and material requirements, resulting in cost savings.
Select the Right Timber Species: The pricing and availability of different timber species vary. Consult your timber supplier or builder to find a species that fits your budget while maintaining quality and beauty.
Optimise Material Usage: Good material management can help to reduce waste and expenditures. Develop ideas for optimal material utilisation with your builder, and consider using sustainable building practises.
Consider Standard Sizes: When compared to custom-made solutions, using standard sizes for windows, doors, and other components can save money. Standard-sized components are widely available, which reduces production time and costs.
Gather and Compare Quotes: To ensure you’re getting reasonable pricing, request multiple quotations from reliable suppliers and builders. Before signing a contract, don’t be afraid to discuss and clarify any cost disparities. By applying these cost-cutting measures, you may maximise your budget while still enjoying the benefits of a beautiful and long-lasting timber frame house. Conclusion Finally, timber frame buildings provide numerous advantages, including energy efficiency, durability, design flexibility, and sustainable construction practises. Design complexity, size, timber species, site location, roofing and cladding options, interior finishes, and other considerations all play a role in the cost of a timber frame house. You may successfully traverse the cost considerations connected with timber frame building by recognising these elements and following cost optimisation measures.

When choosing a timber frame for a house in the UK, it is critical to examine both the quality of the timber used and the cost. Buying a timber frame from the Baltics or Scandinavia is frequently the best option because the quality of the wood is significantly greater and the costs are lower.
Because of the lengthy cold winters and brief mild summers in these regions, the grade of lumber from the Baltics and Scandinavia is exceptional. This exposure to cold and warm temperatures results in denser wood with fewer knots and less shrinking during processing. Buying timber from these areas assures that the quality of the timber frame is of the greatest calibre.
Furthermore, purchasing a timber frame from the Baltics or Scandinavia is less expensive than in the UK. Lower cost timber frames are possible because to the high quality and abundance of timber from these places. Because timber frames normally require a significant amount of wood for construction, acquiring a timber frame from the Baltics or Scandinavia can save money in the long term by lowering the overall amount of wood necessary.
Finally, shipping the timber frame from the Baltics or Scandinavia is less expensive than shipping it from the UK. Although the initial costs of acquiring a timber frame from the Baltics or Scandinavia may be greater than in the UK due to transportation charges, the savings on the cost of the timber itself more than compensate.
Finally, because of the greater quality and lower cost, obtaining a timber frame from the Baltics or Scandinavia is the greatest option for people in the UK. Because of the cheaper cost of the timber frame itself, as well as the savings on shipping fees, this is the most cost efficient alternative for anyone wishing to build a timber frame home.
BS 3632: The Standard for Residential Park Homes: A Comprehensive Guide Introduction Welcome to our full introduction to BS 3632, the residential park dwelling standard. In this essay, we will delve into the complexities of BS 3632 and offer you with all of the necessary knowledge. This resource is for park home owners, potential buyers, and anybody interested in knowing the regulations that regulate park homes.
What exactly is BS 3632? The British Standard BS 3632 specifies the design, construction, and performance of residential park homes. It assures that these dwellings satisfy specific quality and safety requirements, providing residents with safe and comfortable living environments. Compliance with BS 3632 is critical for both producers and owners, as it ensures park houses’ durability and energy efficiency.
The Advantages of BS 3632 Improved Structural Integrity The increased structural stability of BS 3632-compliant park homes is one of its key advantages. These houses are designed to withstand a variety of weather conditions while remaining robust over time. The standard establishes specifications for materials, construction procedures, and load-bearing capacities to ensure that the dwellings are strong and long-lasting.
Thermal Efficiency has been improved. Thermal efficiency of park homes is also emphasised in BS 3632. To minimise heat loss, reduce energy consumption, and maintain pleasant indoor temperatures, proper insulation and energy-saving features are used. This not only improves the quality of life, but also leads to cheaper utility bills and a lower carbon footprint.
Improved Safety Features Safety is critical in residential park houses, and BS 3632 addresses this issue thoroughly. The standard addresses fire safety, electrical installations, and emergency exit routes, ensuring that park homes satisfy high safety standards. Compliance with BS 3632 gives homeowners and park home site operators with peace of mind.
Interior Design and Amenities of the Highest Quality BS 3632 specifies the interior layout and facilities of park homes, with the goal of producing comfortable and useful living areas. The standard ensures that park homes offer high-quality interiors that suit the needs and expectations of their residents, from spacious living areas to well-designed kitchens and bathrooms.
How Can You Tell whether a Park Home Is BS 3632 Compliant? If you’re looking for a residential park home and want to make sure it meets BS 3632, here are some things to check for:
Compliance Statement from the Manufacturer: Reputable park house manufacturers will give a compliance statement stating that their homes meet the requirements of BS 3632. This document acts as proof of compliance and should be easily accessible to prospective buyers.
Building Specifications: Verify that the park home fits the criteria indicated in BS 3632 by reviewing the specifications provided by the manufacturer or seller. Consider the construction materials, insulation values, window quality, and ventilation systems.
Third-Party Certifications: Some park houses may be certified by independent third-party organisations. While not required, these certificates provide an additional level of assurance about the home’s quality and compliance.
Conclusion Finally, BS 3632 is an important standard for ensuring the quality, safety, and energy efficiency of residential park homes. Compliance with this standard not only benefits park home owners, but it also helps to enhance the park house sector as a whole. You may enjoy the many benefits of living in a compliant and well-built residential park house by understanding the standards of BS 3632 and making informed judgements.
Remember, when looking for a park home, prioritise those that follow BS.3632 to ensure a high degree of quality, durability, and comfort. By opting for a BS 3632-compliant park home, you are investing in your future and assuring a better living experience.

NOW THE TRUTH.
The Mobile Home Act 2013 (MHA), while intended to safeguard park home owners, provides park owners with tremendous authority in the situation. According to the Act, park houses are neither freehold nor leasehold; you are just purchasing the’static caravan’ itself, and the land retains the park owner’s property at all times.
This has caused various problems for park home owners, particularly in terms of the expenditures connected with owning a park home. In general, a park home is considered an investment, and park home owners expect a return on their investment. Under the existing system, however, this is not possible because park owners are not compelled to refund any of the funds earned when selling a park property.
Financial risks are exceedingly significant while buying a BS3632 certified mobile home. They typically cost between £80,000 and £250,000, making them one of the most costly housing alternatives in the UK. This is a significant investment that the park house owner is unlikely to repay when the home is sold, or when the park closes or changes ownership. Under the MHA, any cash paid by the park home owner when they purchased the home would effectively be forfeited if the park home changed ownership or closed.
Because of this lack of financial stability, purchasing a BS3632 mobile home is both risky and even devastating for the park home owner. This is exacerbated by the fact that BS3632 mobile homes are also highly immobile; they cannot be transported to another site, leaving the park home owner in a position if the park closes or ownership changes hands.
The difficulties raised above are applicable to any park home and are not limited to those certified to the BS3632 norm. The BS3632’s sole goal is to serve as a safety standard and to ensure that all static caravans achieve a specific standard of quality. The fact that it does not protect park home owners from the financial consequences of park home ownership is troubling, and demonstrates the MHA’s lack of protection for park home owners.
It is evident that the current system does not provide adequate financial protection for anyone intending to purchase a BS3632 mobile home, which is critical given the home’s high cost. While the MHA protects park home owners, it does not provide any financial redress if the park closes or changes hands. Furthermore, because the BS3632 certification does not ensure any type of financial security or return on investment, the BS3632 mobile home is a bad investment.
In conclusion, it is obvious that, while the BS3632 is a safety standard, it does not provide financial protection to its consumers. The high cost of the BS3632 mobile home (varying from £80,000 to £250,000) makes this an exceedingly risky investment, and the absence of financial certainty means that it is very unlikely to produce a return on investment if the park closes or ownership changes hands. For these reasons, BS3632 should be avoided at all costs, and park house owners should look for alternatives that provide some financial protection.
Never buy a single skin Log Cabin labelled as a park home since it is nothing more than a glorified Garden Cabin; I despise the deception, duplicity, and depreciation you will face.
If you find a park you like and they say you can only buy from them, think how much the Caravan guys are offering them to sell to you, thousands, and if it’s a no at first, there will be many more no’s in the future. It all comes down to being astute, not rushing, and purchasing the best from the best!
We have built numerous structures that cover the BS3632, but keep in mind that we are not aiming to offer you the worst. Of all the build types on the market, the BS3632 is a grey market build, it covers nothing, it’s worth nothing, and at the end of the day, it’s just a complete loss of your investment. If you need full-time care after purchasing this, the money you placed in a BS 3632 is gone; there is no investment in this type of build.
Please do not hesitate to to call us and find out how we can supply you with a park home that tripleS in value and costs the same as you high end BS 3632, this is what the park homeowners do not want you to know!

I can not express my feelings when I see this disgusting, cheap, mass manufactured cabins, it just shows the level of integrity of our market, and the dishonesty of most of the large retailers, and their commitment to themselves, i,e profit, than a quality build.
Cheaper cabins are typically built with lower-quality materials, resulting in a shorter lifespan.
Generally ineffective in terms of energy efficiency due to insufficient insulation and draughty windows
Mould can be caused by draughts, wetness, and insect infiltration.
More upkeep is required than in more recent cabins.
Low-cost wood used in construction may not comply with local building rules or fire safety regulations.
Difficulty securing funding due to the building’s short life lifespan
Because of the lesser quality, materials are more difficult to repair and replace.
Inadequate construction can result in costly structural repairs.
Poor manufacture and a lack of sufficient support can jeopardise structural integrity.
The lack of personalization choices results in a generic appearance.
Expensive to insulate properly due to the wood cabin’s weaker construction
Lower resale value as a result of a lack of perceived worth
Higher heating expenses owing to insufficient insulation 14. Easier to overlook cosmetic defects that can cause costly harm in the long run
Interior partitions are typically thinner and less secure.
Doors and windows frequently necessitate additional upkeep.
Because of weak support structure, roofs may need to be changed more frequently. Poor manufacturing can affect structural integrity, resulting in walls sagging inwards over time.
Poor foundations cause cabins to sink unevenly over time.
Due to the cabin’s structure, upgrading flooring and plumbing may be more challenging. 21. Less efficient air circulation due to a lack of modern construction techniques.
Poor soundproofing may result in noise complaints from neighbours. 23. Frequent surface treatments are required to keep the cabin from decay and insect damage.
Inadequate weatherproofing might lead to water infiltration damage.
Because of the cabin’s lack of endurance, you may need to repair it sooner than intended.
Poorly secured materials are easily broken into 27. Limited future ability to add on to or enlarge the cabin 28. Limited alternatives for energy sources such as alternative or renewable energy 29. Poor plumbing or wiring can cause harmful circumstances
A lack of unique finishes or features might make personalising the cabin challenging.
When compared to higher quality cabins from more respected providers, purchasing a cheap log cabin may appear to be a cost-effective alternative. However, these savings come at a cost, and people frequently find themselves in a crisis scenario as a result of poor judgements. This essay will explain why buying a cheap log cabin is a bad decision, the hazards connected with doing so, and why some people may be forced to do so as a result of a financial crisis.
The quality of the materials used is the first reason why buying a cheap log cabin is a terrible choice. Thinner logs, weaker window and door materials, and less secure fixtures and fittings are common features of low-cost log homes. As a result, there may be air draughts and cold areas throughout the cabin. The wood walls may also shrink throughout the winter months, creating gaps between the logs and allowing additional air and water to enter. As a result of the leaks, drapes and furnishings may become damp. Furthermore, it is likely that the windows and doors will not fit properly into their frames, causing additional problems.
Another reason why buying a cheap log home is not a good idea is because of the production process. Cheaper cabins are typically not built to the same standards as more expensive cabins, which means that corners may be cut in their design and production. This can result in missing components, misaligned walls, and thin floor and roof boards that aren’t meant to withstand harsh weather conditions like heavy rain or snowfall.
In the end, a low-cost log cabin is simply a waste of money. What appears to be a cost-effective decision at first may end up costing more in the long run. The poor quality of the materials and production method considerably increases these expenses because replacement wood and fixtures will be required sooner, raising the possibility of having to source them elsewhere.
The appeal of low costs is another element that can lead consumers to purchase an inexpensive log home during a financial crisis. Many decisions must be made quickly in a crisis with fewer resources, so individuals prefer to choose what appears to be the lowest cost option in front of them. This is especially true for individuals who are vulnerable and do not have the expertise or skills to invest in a cabin.
Finally, evaluate the environmental impact of a low-cost log cabin. Reusing logs or timber is important for building cabins and, when done correctly, can even be environmentally friendly. However, lower-cost log cabin makers employ lower-quality, softer wood, such as Douglas Fir, which is less durable and must be replaced more frequently. This will only contribute to landscape degradation and deforestation in the long run, adding to climate change and other harmful environmental repercussions.
Finally, it is critical to evaluate the long-term implications of purchasing an inexpensive log cabin before finalising the purchase. Although low prices may initially be tempting, the quality and production process of a low-cost log home can be damaging in the long term. Furthermore, a financial crisis may motivate many people to make rash judgements that are not always the best alternative. Before making a purchase, it is critical to carefully consider all of the factors and potential implications. If enough research and effort is placed into the decision, a much better cabin and a more pleasant conclusion may be secured.

A statement from Kevin.
” Hello everyone Thank you for visiting our blog; it really does assist you in determining who is knowledgeable about what and who is not. I have lived in the Baltic region for well over 30 years, and trust me when I say most of what is written on websites is garbage. When you go to the mills in question, their machinery is old, their inspection to detail is not there, and the quality is awful, and that’s being kind. What I will say is this: Please do not call me and think we are fools; we are not. We can manufacture you a house that in the UK would cost £350.000 for £200.000, and the standard of construction would be immensely higher than offered to you by a UK company. My garden buildings, log cabins, or highly insulated timber frame houses, holiday retreats, whatever you have in mind, are the best of the best, and at the lowest price I can offer them. The same is true of the twinskin cabins and all kinds of constructions. We adhere to all contract terms and conditions because we are a UK limited company. We are a trustworthy organisation, so even if there is a Pandemic when we are working on a project, we do not close down and hide; instead, we continue and complete it at the price agreed upon”. If you read between the lines, you will understand that we do not use a awful situation to profit from. Please call us today or send us an email and and speak to us about what you really , really want and your budget, and let us help you make your dreams come true”.

Chapter 2: Planning Your Log House Project
Finding the Perfect Location
Choosing the ideal location for your log house is crucial. Consider factors such as proximity to amenities, access to nature, and the overall atmosphere you desire. Whether you prefer a serene lakeside setting or a secluded mountain retreat, selecting the right location sets the foundation for your log house project.
Designing Your Dream Log House
Collaborating with experienced architects and designers is essential to create a log house that aligns with your vision. Discuss your preferences, lifestyle, and functional requirements to ensure the design captures the essence of your dream retreat. Incorporate ample natural light, spacious living areas, and cozy nooks to enhance the overall charm and comfort of your log house.
Selecting the Ideal Logs
Choosing the right logs is a critical aspect of log house construction. Opt for high-quality logs with minimal knots and insect damage. The species of wood you select will also impact the aesthetics and durability of your log house. Popular choices include pine, cedar, and spruce, each possessing unique characteristics that contribute to the overall appeal of the structure.
Engaging Skilled Log House Builders
Working with experienced log house builders is paramount to ensure a seamless construction process. Look for reputable builders with a track record of delivering exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. Collaborate closely with the builders to communicate your expectations clearly and to monitor the progress of the project at every stage.
Chapter 3: Construction and Finishing Touches
The Log House Construction Process
The construction process involves several key steps, including laying the foundation, erecting the log walls, and completing the roof and interior structures. Each phase requires meticulous planning and skilled execution to achieve a structurally sound and aesthetically pleasing log house. Expert builders will navigate the complexities of log joinery, insulation, and sealing to ensure the house is resilient to the elements.
Enhancing the Interiors
The interior design of your log house plays a crucial role in creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Consider incorporating natural elements such as stone or wood accents, exposed beams, and cozy fireplaces. Opt for furnishings and décor that complement the rustic charm of the log walls, striking a harmonious balance between comfort and nature-inspired aesthetics
Embracing Sustainable Living
A log house presents an excellent opportunity to embrace sustainable living practices. Incorporate energy-efficient appliances, solar panels, and proper insulation to reduce your carbon footprint and decrease utility costs.

By harmonizing your log house with its natural surroundings, you’ll enhance the overall appeal and create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
Chapter 4: Maintenance and Longevity
Caring for Your Log House
Regular maintenance is crucial to preserve the beauty and longevity of your log house. Perform routine inspections to identify and address any issues promptly. Maintain the exterior logs by applying protective stains or finishes to shield them from weathering and UV damage. Clear debris from gutters and regularly inspect the roof for any signs of wear or damage. By staying proactive, you’ll ensure your log house stands strong for generations to come.
Preventing and Addressing Common Issues
Despite their durability, log houses may encounter certain issues over time. These can include settling of logs, insect infestations, or moisture-related concerns. It’s essential to stay vigilant and address these issues promptly to prevent further damage. Consult with professionals experienced in log house maintenance and repair to effectively tackle any challenges that arise.
Preserving the Beauty of Logs
The natural beauty of logs can be enhanced through proper care and maintenance. Regularly clean the interior logs to remove dust and debris, and periodically apply a specialized log cleaner to maintain their luster. Embrace the occasional imperfections, such as small cracks or knots, as they contribute to the unique character of your log house.

Timber frame buildings have been gaining popularity in recent years due to their sustainability and eco-friendliness. They offer an excellent alternative to traditional concrete and steel structures, thanks to their ability to store carbon dioxide and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In this article, we will explore highly insulated timber frame buildings and why they are the future of sustainable construction.
What are Highly Insulated Timber Frame Buildings?
Highly insulated timber frame buildings are constructed using timber frames with high levels of insulation. The timber frame acts as the structural skeleton of the building, and the insulation provides an airtight barrier that keeps the heat inside. These buildings can be constructed using a range of different timber species, including spruce, pine, and fir.
Benefits of Highly Insulated Timber Frame Buildings
Energy Efficiency
One of the significant benefits of highly insulated timber frame buildings is their energy efficiency. The insulation keeps the heat inside during winter, reducing the need for heating, and during summer, it keeps the building cool, reducing the need for air conditioning. As a result, these buildings are highly energy-efficient and can help reduce energy bills significantly.
Sustainability
Timber is one of the most sustainable building materials available today. It is renewable, biodegradable, and has a low carbon footprint. Highly insulated timber frame buildings take sustainability a step further by storing carbon dioxide within the building structure. This carbon storage effect is due to the fact that timber absorbs carbon dioxide during its growth and stores it within its fibers.
Speed of Construction
Highly insulated timber frame buildings are faster to construct than traditional buildings. The timber frames are prefabricated offsite and can be erected on-site in a matter of days, reducing the construction time significantly. This quick construction time can save money and reduce the carbon footprint of the construction process.
Versatility
Highly insulated timber frame buildings are incredibly versatile and can be used for a wide range of purposes, including residential, commercial, and public buildings. They can be designed to fit any style and can be customized to meet specific needs, making them an excellent choice for architects and designers.
Design Considerations
When designing highly insulated timber frame buildings, several factors need to be considered to ensure that the building is safe, durable, and meets building regulations. Some of these factors include:
Moisture Control
Timber is susceptible to moisture, and if not managed correctly, can lead to decay and rot. To prevent moisture from becoming a problem, a proper moisture control strategy should be implemented during construction.
Fire Safety
Timber is combustible, and fire safety should be a significant consideration when designing timber frame buildings. Fire-resistant coatings can be applied to the timber frames to reduce the risk of fire.
Structural Engineering
Timber frame buildings require specialized structural engineering to ensure that the building is safe, durable, and meets building regulations. A structural engineer should be involved in the design process to ensure that the building meets all relevant codes and regulations.
Conclusion
Highly insulated timber frame buildings are the future of sustainable construction. They offer numerous benefits, including energy efficiency, sustainability, versatility, and quick construction times. When designed and constructed correctly, they can be safe, durable, and meet all relevant building codes and regulations.
FAQs
Are highly insulated timber frame buildings more expensive than traditional buildings?

Can highly insulated timber frame buildings be used for commercial purposes?
Yes, highly insulated timber frame buildings are incredibly versatile and can be used for a wide range of purposes, including commercial buildings.
How long does it take to construct a highly insulated timber frame building?
The construction time of highly insulated timber frame buildings is significantly shorter than traditional buildings. The prefabricated timber frames can be erected on-site in a matter of days, reducing the construction time significantly.
How can moisture be controlled in highly insulated timber frame buildings?
Moisture can be controlled in highly insulated timber frame buildings through the implementation of proper moisture control strategies during construction, such as the use of a vapor barrier and proper ventilation.
Are highly insulated timber frame buildings safe?
When designed and constructed correctly, highly insulated timber frame buildings can be safe and meet all relevant building codes and regulations. Structural engineering, fire safety, and moisture control should be carefully considered during the design and construction process to ensure the building’s safety and durability.

I’ve been daydreaming of getting a log cabin for my garden ever since I moved into my New House. After months of contemplation, I finally decided to buy one from Factory Cabins. I chose the 44mm x 44mm Insulated Twin Skin Clock House design, which includes 8 tilt-and-turn windows in addition to double-glazed windows and doors. Additionally, after doing a lot of reading, I found I was buying it from the business that first created the clock house and then created the twinskin system. It’s comparable like buying a Ferrari directly from the dealership.
When the cabin showed up, I had a feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment. If you really read between the lines of most online log cabin businesses, there are always hidden fees, and the reviews I have gotten regarding Factory Cabins from a friend of mine were that they supply the best log cabins for the price in the UK. I couldn’t believe it was really mine and that I had succeeded in purchasing a cabin that was delivered on time and at the stated price. The fact that I am doing business with a Brit in Lithuania who has been in the industry longer than anyone else sealed the deal. He was the man who got everyone in the UK started, and as the first importer of log cabins, and with his understanding of log cabins and his ability to custom make what I needed, I was thrilled. Plus, I made my payment with a card into a UK company, which is the best it gets! And get this they even are mentioned on the bank blog as being the best trader in 2022 for a few months, jack pot. Safe, Direct, and I recieved amazing quality (everything).
I immediately got to work on the backyard log cabin project. I was amazed at the solidity of the construction and how quickly it came together. After incorporating the clock house, I was ecstatic with the way my garden felt and looked. ( no i did not build it, Factory Cabins had their own team come in and do everything for me, even the plumbing and electric work). And that price was awesome, I had asked around on pricing for assembly, but most are just rip offs. Seriously someone’s price was £10.000, I nearly had a heart attack, actually I laughed and said thanks.
I could invite people over without worrying about them getting too cold because the cabin was entirely insulated. The best feature of all was this. I also built a bathroom with a washbasin, toilet and shower to make the Clock Studio Log Cabin cosier.
Since then, I’ve been having fun at my retreat, relaxing in my garden, and having guests around. The happiness and success I feel every time I gaze at the cabin are feelings that are difficult to put into words. The way my cabin completes my garden and now i have a room for myself to chill and relax, massive thanks to Kevin.
Clock Houses, who actually came up with that terminology and what is a clock house, what was the first, and how has it become the mainstream log cabin, that’s gone from being a very exquisite Log Cabin, to a cheap nasty imitation of its roots, this is a story of sorrow actually as when I first designed the 5.5m x 4.0m Clock House it was amazing, it truly was a thing of beauty that was an affordable, and just uplifted every garden you put it in, it was available in so many different forms, and it was so unique to its self, there was nothing like it on the market, and because of that we sold hundreds and hundreds of this design, and then when I designed the Twinskin Log Locking System, I also introduced an insulated version of it, then with its amazing windows and doors, the
Clock House just got better and better, then the low end high volume boys of the market started to copy this design, and now we have sadly very awful manufactured clock houses on the market, and sadly you, the public have no clue what’s good and bad
Now you may say, they are all the same, which is like saying a shed is like a house, because we all know a shed is always poorly manufactured, does not last more than 5 years if you’re lucky, and eventually leaks, but this is not the case with our clock house, a factory cabins clock house is manufactured to last, and I mean last, forget the cheap sector with their claims of a clock house cabin will last 10 years, they never mention their windows and doors, only the box, But the windows and doors are not, and to be courteous, I will just keep shut, but please remember to ask for windows and doors photos before you buy.
As a result, they say, OH, we can upgrade you to our Plastic Windows and Doors, OK, let’s have a look at that. Most premium UVPC window frames are 70mm to 72mm thick, which the manufacturer claims is robust. While this may be great in a brick house, in a moving timber structure, the rigidity is not a benefit but a hindrance. But the individuals selling the cabins think you’re unaware and don’t realise that plastic windows and doors belong in a house, not a log cabin. Clock Houses are meant to be built to last the test of time, with incredible windows and doors that look dantey rather than domestic. So it’s gone from a lovely garden structure to a very expensive pile of poop with plastic windows and doors!

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.

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!

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.
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.
Before we start I did not believe I would find out so much shady dealings, it has actually shocked me, while we were uploading these finds, and going onto Trustpilot OUR SERVER WAS HACKED, from the very same places this company has IT departments, Hong Kong, China, USA AND A FEW OTHER, JAPAN.
They are valued at 1.1 Billion…… Imagine…. now look at this company and see how dangerous they are…..
Sorry to throw this on you…….( related review here, https://www.quora.com/Can-trustpilot-be-trusted )
Absolutely not. Trust Pilot is a criminal organization. As a rule of thumb, if a business is pointing to Trust Pilot reviews to try and convince you they are a legitimate operation, it is almost certainly a scam. Trust pilot actively and knowingly assists criminals in perpetrating fraud against senior citizens and other vulnerable individuals. This includes people with intellectual, developmental, and other disabilities.
Fake reviews exist on every platform in existence that offer consumers the ability to review their experience with companies they’ve done business with, but most will put effort into eradicating fake reviews when they are pointed out to them or otherwise discovered. Trust pilot on the other hand will accept money to look the other way.
The bottom line is you have to be careful when putting trust in any review you find online but Trust Pilot’s business model relies on fake reviews that help fraudulent businesses look legitimate.
Be careful out there. Fraud is a multi-billion dollar industry, and it isn’t going anywhere unless you educate yourselves, your loved ones, and anyone even remotely likely to fall for a scam.
OK this is a TP ( Trust Pilot) false review which Is on the best server banks in the world. Poor. lol…
Have you heard this saying, Trust Pilot looks after Business not the customer.
WRONG THEY ARE LOOKING ONLY AFTER THEMSELVES….. MONEY, SMALL DANISH CON,,,,PANY!
Please read this, its so going to change your mind forever , and ever………
Do not believe a word this company ever writes. IT’S A SCAM……….. Trust Pilot, the little Danish company who tells us British how to live, WHAT TO THINK AND WHAT TO BELIEVE……. Evening Standard 900.000 people a day love to read their London Rag, and Britt’s love their Tescos, not that you would know over there in Denmark, but we have 2563 Tesco stores, offering everything, and we do not need a Danish company telling us its a Poor choice, with a turn over of 53 billion, 25% of all Britts shop at Tesco, and love Tescos…… and as I said we do not need your low ranking on every major company because they will not bend to your pathetic tactics, now its time to get everyone together and drag your sorry ass into a UK court! We left the EU because we were fed up with your rules and regulations, we give give give and you just took. we do not need your bacon, we have our own……….
I received lots of awful disgusting reviews from some guy called John, and I asked him to identify himself, as you can see below he refused to give his email, proving the point he is a stalker, possibly trust pilot themselves, this started 2 years ago, remember Trust Pilots own rules are they do not allow individual names to be written or a case older than a year to mentioned,, so i send this stalker guy a request email and number through trust pilot, , and guess what! NOTHING……… Please read this blog its going to change your mind on whats what, and you will ask yourself why a little nothing danish company have a say in what we should think!
Check out all the UK companies that don’t want trustpilot, and look at their rating for that decision. A BIG SCAM..
What’s really strange about company is that when it floated on the stock, all board members went, and all shares went to the owner. Since then, this company has gone, down down down! Seems to me the passengers left the sinking ships selling their shares on the way out the door.
First taste…….
There are Hundreds of reviews all BAD about trust pilot, from the BBC watchdog, to rogue trader, to gov.uk, American courts and and and, all here to view, so if you want to trust trustpilot, after all these videos and and THEN YOU LOVE THE DANISH BACON TOO MUCH…….AND AS WE KNOW BRITISH BACON IS BETTER………….
DO NOT PAY THEN TRUST PILOT WILL RANK YOU BAD OR POOR….
THIS LITTLE SCUMMY DANISH COMPANY IS SO OUT OF TOUCH. AND IT THINKS THE BRITS WILL PAY THEM PROTECTION MONEY FOR THEIR ONLINE SHOPS OR THEY WILL DIE IN A HAIL OF BAD SCAM POSTS…. LOL.. STUPID LITTLE FUCKERS………… YOUR FINISHED IN THE UK..
Please go to who is, and look up trustpilot, owners, address, phone number etc, all hidden? Strange that!
The Japanese automobile manufacturer Nissan had held assets worth 18.7 trillion Japanese yen in their 2017 financial year, which amounted to some 176 billion U.S. dollars. The company’s assets have been continuously rising since 2009. However, operating profits generated by Nissan had declined that same year, being roughly 170 billion yen lower than the previous year. The largest share of employees were located in the company’s home market, with a further 16,807 people employed across Europe.
They do not use Trust Scam Pilot so they are BAD BAD BAD BAD,!!! The plant employs 6,00 people in Sunderland and supports a further 27,000 UK automotive supply chain jobs, ¾ of which are in North East England. Trust Scams Report…. With offices in Copenhagen, London, New York, Denver, Berlin, Melbourne and Vilnius, Trustscampilot’s 700 employees represent more than 40 different nationalities. Many countries to scam in! Why no phone numbers?????
OK…… Ready, the SKAT.DK IS THE Danish Tax Office, and the review on TrustCon BAD…… However then ours, so the question is, where are they cleaning their money! I think the UK TAX office needs to take a hard look at this company.

https://www.adidas.co.uk/ they do not use Trustpilot, so of course, BAD
Mad review……imagine this is the nike review page, it’s pure spam.Like the top 10 jeans in the world???
Funny how other review companies have such a low ranking on trust pilot, this one is 7% of the public dislike this Danish Mafia website.
The Question on my lips is, is this organised crime?????
In the financial year ending January, 31, 2021, Morrisons PLC generated a gross profit of approximately 388 million British pounds. This was a significant decrease compared to the preceding financial year. Currently, Morrisons is the fourth largest supermarket in the United Kingdom by market share, following Tesco, Sainsbury’s and Asda, and is one of the ‘big four’ grocery retailers.
You want to see a mountain of bad reviews all about Trust Pilot, goverment ones, BBC Rouge Traders and the list goes on.a company check this out!!! Trust Pilot do your Job!.
OK… Here goes…. this is Trust Scam Pilot doing their scam on me, I complain and they do this…………..
Ready.. 200 a month……… everything cool, pay nothing and your booted to nothing…..
How Can anyone , any one say Google is poor, thats just MADNESS! we all use their platforms, they are free, and they help, I have never given a penny to have this product and Google I would say is 10/10 every single hour of every day! And trust Pilot rank them as Poor……… Trust Pilot your days are numbered.
I have used paypal since it started, they are amazing, amazing, and great for people to use, yes they charge but no one can steal from you in any way if you go through paypal, I like using mine to pay for domains, as sadly domain companies charge you too quickly for domains you may not want.
Hi everyone, ok, time for a long conversation about trust pilot, who they are, and their level of integrality, honesty, or if they are just about Money!
Why am I talking about this, well we have a stalker, its a dealer we sacked, and when a staff member contacted and asked trust pilot to look at our stalkers mental rantings they said pay and its gone, this is not how business works, so we have decided to pay some really nice Indians IT guys to come up with a website completely dedicated to listing Trust pilots errors. We think this will balance the tables where this is concerned. All profits will go to Children who suffer with cancer here.
Sadly they do not remove stalker reviews, or any other kind of reviews fake reviews, and they also allow spamming etc if you pay, and when you speak to them, guess what, they say ( Pay ) and you can clear the fake harmful reviews, for me, when I get a bad review which is not often, its normally from customers who do not get discounts because there was a virus, and trucking pricing went up in the UK and they said give us a discount of £1000 or we will talk to your credit card company, that was stupid, as their deposit was back in their bank before their fingers left the send key on their email to us. Their cabin was resold instantly, we manufacture the best cabins in the market, we have been called middle men, Yes, we have 6 different manufacturers manufacturing our designs, at a price that makes everyone happy, we keep an eye on quality, and we better the cabins each and every day. With over 7000 designs, designed by us, manufactured with a mill we have been working alongside for 20 years, I would say we are one company. 2020 we sacked all our dealers, everyone, as we looked at their pricing, our pricing, and that was that. We could not understand a difference of £3000 to £8000 on a building. we felt that the public were being cheated. This upset a lot of people, some of these people were friends, but non the less the public were, being cheated. I asked everyone nicely to remove my images, remove my name and for them to go to other manufacturers. Some were very upset, some were angry, some like skinners refused to remove our designs from their website, and others just go to trust pilot and scream and shout.
This is just a few videos, easy to find, and all about trust pilot and that their reviews sadly are bought and paid for, they are not to be trusted.
As a Danish company, and as they only care about money, which is their ultimate goal, and the need for them to just earn and earn, things will change soon for this company I am positive.
So getting onto the matter at hand our stalker, its funny as Kevin is hardly ever in the office now, as he is hands on in the factory, so this stalker is wrong about, middle man, and secondly middle men take money from Factory, our customers pay into our accounts by credit card, next, sorry to list these things, but when people lie we like to expose them, because this is how dealers work, Kevin is not a nice guy, at all actually, he is fair and honest, he understands people, and he gives honest, blunt answers, and you either like that or don’t, and he does not care, very much like Ricky Gervais, Kevins dancing is better, but he is in personality like Ricky. And he keeps us laughing in the Office.
OK….. Please follow this…. first blog by our stalker John 2020
I will be putting in an action to sue Woke Joh and Trust Pilot. Rich men normally win, we are smarter. Our lawyers are pernickety straight to the point don’t play games ruthless and they win,,, you on the other hand have awful dictation spelling is the same you are now in a country where there is no water no shade no rock and no where to bury your head. If you want to threaten people that’s your choice but as a consequence to every action and you’re going to find out the hard way and so is trust pilot. You are very stupid individual with limited education and I’m going to smile when the judge puts a huge penalty on you because every penny I take from you I will give to the children who have cancer which is where that money belongs.
We had no reply from him, and no phone calls, zero, nothing, mystery!
So 2 years later and he pops up again, this time with more madness,,,,,
Then more…. remember this is a Reseller, sitting in his bedroom somewhere, no work, no money, very bored, and asking himself why was he sacked, he only over charged the customers a few times, why did Kevin sack me? Why ……?? We think, because a customer does not hide himself like a sneak thief! Customers come out and declare themselves, and moan, and as civilised human beings we deal with the problem and sort it. This Woke Stalker is sneaky! And in our books a sacked cabins UK reseller.
And again, lol…. We are laughing here at the factory as we see this guy in a goofy costume with WOKE tattooed on his forehead , thinking to himself that he is a Dog!
OK this is where it gets MAD…… He can not take this one back, because as you can see , stalker…….. madness flowing…. Woke madness. we have a copy!
This was left on the logcabinslv.ie trust pilot account, which has nothing to do with us, it belonged to a reseller called Leon Vlahovic, company Straight Solutions, which sadly the word Straight does not at all fit Leon. he has stolen from so many customers, its now in the the Tens, and these trusting customers are shouting at us, because he took their deposits and ran away, non of the customers paid by credit card, , we have nothing to do with this company, we were just one of many people Leon bought from, and when we heard what he was doing we demanded he take down our products and we then put up a blog and made it clear and this is 6 months ago not to deal with him. We have had many people from Ireland thank us for that Blog.
And we have people like John here in Ireland, sadly crying that he did not get his money, he did get his money mind you, but Leon was late or something, so he wanted compensation, and sadly wrote a long honest to some points part in trust pilot. Arr he called us, and threatened us with legal action , but our lawyer explained to him that he bought his cabin, from a different company, we had had no email connection, trade connection, payment connection, talk connection, and we only supplied cabins to Leon, but as always, he wants money. There were many who never got a cabin as Leon is a very nasty selfish thief.
I am not sure if everyone knows this, but because you all buy cabins from Resellers, they are in fact second hand! Only if you buy them direct will they be a New Cabin, and our teams and conditions would apply only then.
John F Longford, is nearing on liable, and so is Trust Pilot, which is why we intend to get judgement from the people freely, and let them talk freely about their experience with trust pilot… we know the platform will be attacked which is why we intend to put it in India. All negative reviews about trust pilot will be kept, also we have Lawyers who work on no win no fee to help us with this Trust Pilot problem. We will look for people who want to sue, just sue. Loss of earning, destroyed their business, and then take Trust Pilot to court each day and night in many many countries at once, and then hopefully they will clean up their act. I do not care about their terms and conditions, we will drag them into court. Terms and conditions only apply if you keep to the letter of civil law, not your own.
Whats suspicious is the ranking. Its too perfect on trust pilot, sadly another failed on line company who will be heading to the tip, this i am positive about. 1.4 billion Indians will now make it their mission to find ever little secret Trust Pilot has to offer.. And we will print it.
Always Pay by Card…
Please understand this is not us, nothing to do with us, yet as a manufacturer we are blamed.
Let me show you what we have found.
Now its quite clear that Dunster house pay to get great reviews, and their reward because 20,000.000 a day live by trust pilots guidance. There are other companies that do the same as trust pilot, and I tend to go with these. so check this out, and remember Trust Pilot say Dunster is Excellent.
Completely different score….
I think the only way that trust pilot can redeem itself is put on the front page a phone number for them to get many people sitting in the room and take calls from the general public about blogs the wrong that are deceitful the scam that are crooked and that are hurting their business and for them to be taken down trust pilot is not a criminal organisation that has the right to determine if a company succeeds or not also algorithms cannot determine psychiatrist reports on people trust pilot is a very bad version of a fortune teller in a box on Brighton Pier and it needs to be dismantled and we need to go back to the public deciding whether results and reviews are real not an algorithm.
Our compulsive Woke in drag John who now has become a night writer is adding more and more to his delirious fantasies, this is why you were sacked as a cabin dealer.
I know possibly 10 Johns in this industry and 8 are crooks. The problem with this industry is that if you want dealers to sell your cabins you have to take them at face value, and so many of them are just crooks. Anyway fed up with all this, will let my Indian friends sort out a website and collectively put Trust Pilot in the dock, and hopefully John gets medical attention.
Coming for you Woke John, and thanks for leaving your email withTrust Pilot.. Hope your Woke Pocket is deep. Driving an s63 with a reg of K1 mine are full, and I will make sure you do not have a box to shelter in,
They do it themselves???? Its all Blar Blar.
On 14 September 2017, Trustpilot issued an open letter clarifying its review policy following allegations concerning the ‘validity of reviews of [online estate agent] Purplebricks by customers’.[32][33]
On 22 March 2019, The Times reported that estate agents Purplebricks and Foxtons are “gaming” Trustpilot feedback by paying it to help gain better scores. In August 2016 five reviews of Foxtons were published on Trustpilot, with an average score of 2.2 stars out of five. The following month there were 467 reviews, 90% of them awarding five stars.[29][34]
On 6 February 2020 industry publication Property Industry Eye reported that Trustpilot was looking into reviews of estate agents ‘at large’ after claims from property review website allAgents that 70% of their reviews could be fake.[35][36]
In May 2020, an episode of Joe Lycett‘s Got Your Back ran an experiment in which a fake company was created on Trust pilot, demonstrating the various ways of manipulating reviews on the site.[37] Trust pilot published an online response, noting the value of the show’s experiment in highlighting fraud on the site, and promising to implement changes to tackle the problem better.[38]
crooked review parasite like trust pilot these words are used by a 20 veteran in IT trust pilot has a lot to answer for……..
I’d be more inclined to trust the bad reviews and a good although those can also be fake by militias competitors wanting to sabotage I would say that the current data quality makes trust pilot next to useless…… So eloquently said by Kevin Mills
more to come……..
there were 20 million people a day that look at this platform trust pilot and live by it and by what they say that’s almost as bad as all of the Hare Krishnas don’t be a robot and read the reviews from trust pilot they are absolutely false and this company is only about money it is not about looking after you your family your business or anything to do with your life it’s all a lie I’ve put down today on this blog quite a few different members of the public who do different things in different ways and they all say the same thing trust pilot is full of shit.
Trust Pilot does not stick to its guide lines, which is criminal.
The watchdog has not mentioned Trustpilot by name, but given the firm’s size and influence many expect its activities will come under review.
And there may be suspicion that, by charging businesses to send out review invitations and reminders, it might be helping them skew their scores.
“Infuriated customers find Trustpilot and write a scathing review. Satisfied customers, if not prompted, will not bother,” said Francois Godard from Enders Analysis.
“The underlying problem is, specialised sites like Trustpilot… are stuck in a conflict of interest: to generate audiences they need to host critical, credible voices; to keep clients they need positive reviews and ratings.”
This was the link attached to this rating, as you can see if you do not use trust pilot they just put poor, or in this case, BAD! which as we know is trust pilots way of trying to get Mercedes UK to put trust Pilot on their website, but!!! we all know Mercs are the best, and why pay 2500 pounds to get a rip off review.Trust Pilot this is going to be the longest review and most amount of bad reviews about you that has ever been published, you stand for nothing, you can not be trusted, your company is a con…100%…
More to come……… Whoops, a Bad for LinkedIn, John????? wow…
How many daily active users does Snapchat have?
As of the fourth quarter of 2021, photo and video sharing app Snapchat had 319 million daily active users worldwide, up from 306 million global DAU in previous quarter of 2021. So 319 Million users a day are Poor!!!!
Poor, how can you say , or rate Poor???? This plate form has helped many victims in Ukraine! Disgusting Company!
Poor???? Really???
So 1.93 billion people use face book and Trust Pilot reviews it as Poor??? Jokers..
Facebook audience reach
During the fourth quarter of 2021, the number of daily active users on Facebook reached 1.93 billion, a very minor decrease on the previous quarter. When compared with the number of daily active users by the final quarter of 2020, the platform gained around 84 million users. The number of monthly active users by the end of 2021 was 2.9 billion. Facebook’s penetration rate for the United States in 2021 was 70.59 percent, up from 67.4 percent in 2020. The social network’s audience reach is projected to be 76.84 by 2026.
Most popular social media websites
As of May 2021, Facebook was the most used social media site in the United States, accounting for 71.8 percent of all social media visits. Ranking in second place was Pinterest with 12.4 percent, followed by Twitter and Instagram, with 9.15 percent and 3.82 percent, respectively. Although other sites remain popular, Facebook’s number of visits made it undoubtably the leading social media platform in terms of social media site visits.
For Generation Z and Millennials in the United States, Facebook was one of the least popular platforms used to connect with others. Gen Z and Millennials preferred video sharing platforms, specifically Snapchat, TikTok and YouTube.
Meta’s revenue
Facebook Inc was renamed as Meta in 2021, in a strategic step toward the metaverse.

In the most recent fiscal year, Meta’s Family of Apps were responsible for over 115 billion U.S. dollars’ worth of Meta’s revenue.
Here at Factory Cabins we believe in safety, thats quality of build, safe and sturdy log cabins and well manufactured safe windows and doors, we also believe that when you pay for something , you must be safe also with payments. So thats why we always shout, Credit Cards, nothing but credit cards. We get a-lot of stick from other dealers who’s, banks will not give them merchant accounts, as they possibly have bad credit scoring, or have been bankrupt or are a risk, remember its hard now to get a merchant account, the banks must trust you. With credit card facilities the banks take the risk, so they really look closely at their customers. Our trust Pilot review is always hit by the rouge trader, but, its either because we have done a review on them and their quality, and they don’t like it, ( yes John ) or they just have no sales, because the customer would rather come to an established dealer than some fly by night!
Always pay with a credit card.
I am called lots of names by many many people, and companies, but if I see you lying, then I will just jump on you so hard, so quickly, because this industry needs to raise up from the ground, and not stay still with crap being the ultimate product leaving most company warehouses.
If you are looking for the best!!! Then please give us a call, and if we have bad reviews by people on Trust Pilot, and all they do is throw insults, then I am doing a good job,,,, I am hurting the scammer…..
This months Large Build, Twin Skin 70mm + 100 + 70mm, quality logcabins always……
Who has the best range of Saunas in the UK for amazing prices considering no one has any timber, ( US) and who can deliver amazing Saunas on a 8 week promise, Us.
A Sauna is the best thing to relax in after a days graft. So many people sit in their baths and wallow in their dirty water for an hour or so and then dry themselves off with a dirty towel and think ( I am clean) your not, you are actually dirtier as the pours of your skin opened and the dirt went slightly deeper.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but bathtubs are really, really dirty. One study found that staph germs, which can cause dangerous staph infections, are present in almost 30 percent of bathtubs. Another study says bathtubs are 100 times more germ-filled than garbage cans.
But…….
Facilities offering sauna bathing often claim health benefits that include detoxification, increased metabolism, weight loss, increased blood circulation, pain reduction, anti-aging, skin rejuvenation, improved cardiovascular function, improved immune function, improved sleep, stress management, and relaxation.
So please please have a look at our range of keeping young cabins……..
When manufacturing a Clock House Log Cabin, there are many things to take into account.
The first thought when manufacturing a Log Cabin is that it is built safely, and that it protects the environment. Its windows and doors are the best they can be, and that its water tight, and manufactured to be strong.
We at the factory are very sorry and extremely concerned that so many children are being hurt by the problem in Ukraine , The Adults make the wars, not the Children, so we intend to purchase many many toys from our profit to buy toys for the displaced children. A toy always puts a smile of children’s faces, no matter the circumstance.
Yes its a hot tube cover, also its a changing room, also its a place to get away from everyone and everything. Its on the Isle Man and it stood through many storms, why, we made it.
Russian Forests
I want to make a statement now, see this amazing forest, well some of it ends up in your house, in many different forms, its the Russian well managed, well kept inner northern forest, and the UK does not have anything vaguely that looks even similar to this, and it never will do, because each and every government , cares only about money and zero about forests. And now you are upsetting the man that could stop your house building, gas, and everything else you need. So before you let the media completely brain wash you, look at this picture, think, this is there because President Putin cares about his forests, and then think, if a man loves nature so much, how can he be so bad?
President Lukashenko of Belarus, now this man has grown his forest into one of the best in the planet, and we are very dependant on him for timber. Sadly though America want as always to upset the world, which they do daily and hourly.
Always pay with a credit card.
Belarus Forests.
Before you start to believe what people say about people, really get to know the person , and not what your told by CNN or BBC, both of which are liars and fraudsters. Get to know the truth before you make judgement, and a man who cares for his wildlife, is never a bad man!
To other people, we look at how its planned and cut, treated and notched. So heres a small lesson.
This is Russian, Quality Timber.
Russian Quality Winter Cut Timber.
Then there is Baltic Cut Timber, most companies use this if they are manufacturing bulk cabins, as its cheap, and honestly, nasty,
As you can see the difference immediately.
99.9% of people use this timber to manufacturer their sheds, cabins etc from, why , cost, the cost to you is high to them low, the longevity of the manufactured item months not years.
So when your picking a log cabin be smart….. Your money was hard to come by, spend it wisely. In the land of sheds and cabins , lies are told more than truths.
Fact Winter Cut timber is the best! Fact we only use winter Cut timber. Fact buy direct saves you 1000’s and you get the best quality their is to have. And lastly, if you want the best, come to the company that designed 99.9% of all cabins in the market to date. We invented the twinskin system, and were the first to manufature, market and sell. The clockhouse, the aurora, coin phrased the term garden office for a 4m x 5m log cabin, and so much more.
We are the longest running company in the cabin industry, and we are proud to say we have made this industry what it is today, by always pushing harder and harder.
Doors and Windows our design, now everyone is copying.
We designed over many years a new set of windows and doors, and how they were to work, they working part has not been copied, but the design has.
Hi everyone, OK, just a quick Note, so when you ask you will not be upset by my answer.
You want plans, photos and you can not even give me your phone number, well you know what I am going to say. I have so many stupid people call me and tell me they are going to build a camping site, and please can they have our in depth technical drawings of our amazing high quality top of the line camping pods, or our insulated passive housing, what ever, and then they submit that to the council, council say yes because the quality is so exceptionally high, also with safety at the forefront , and the product we offer does not look like a load of chicken sheds on a hill side of natural beauty, and then once the council looks at us they say yes, and then the Holiday Camping site Entrepreneur buys cheap crap, and saves himself 1000’s and puts all your lives at risk.
So we now say no, and no its going to stay, so if your calling me for a plan, it will cost you now a few pennies and you must offer a land line and mobile number. otherwise buy the crap from someone else.
Heres an example of a company that lies and cheats.
This joke of a company do not have my permission to sell my cabins, or use my images, but, Skinner Sheds are a law to themselves. but check out their pricing and they want to sell you a second hand cabin for £2000 more than a new one from us.
Skinners, again stealing our drawings, art work, design, and then over pricing you by ££££££££££££££££££ and its an ex display model! 11.879.00 for a second hand building. Wow, and his windows and doors are shocking, plus ex display means, shrinkage, water damage and stains. all equals, Rubbish for that price.
Yep, this is ours, ours alone, Skinners stole the art work as I said, and he is trying to steal from you £2000 plus with his price, however our cabin to you will have will have amazing windows and doors, his are sadly shed quality, his customer service is like talking to HSBC, and to top it off, his timber is Baltic, he purchases his cabins from a very good high volume mill, but it is a bulk mill, nothing fancy, nothing to write home about. The owner , cool dude, and he makes lots and lots of cabins, who he sells to everyone. Everywhere.
First thought….. Take away the Britmet Tiles and you get left with a shoddy shed!
Space, space is what you need in a park, also each pod much be a certain distance apart because of fire, and you only put vertical cladding if you know what your doing, this company has no over hang, and puts the facia directly to the outside cladding, which is why you have this problem we pointed out, but as you can see the company that installed manufactured these pods have not done the right thing and gone back, this company is with out doubt cheap and nasty, And I would advice to stay away. This company we sacked, and they still have our designs littered over their website, so we are doing the same, but rather than tell the world these are ours, we are saying, stay away, do not waste your money.
OK… Look at these Pods, I am not going to mention the company that made them, but if you look at them you will notice that the middle ones already have already rot, blue, black stain. “Why are they in this condition, they are new yes? ” yes they are , so why are they in so bad condition, and why are they sitting on the cheapest base ever made, that will fall apart , all these questions you are asking yourself, ( because you are thinking of opening a park) simple, badly manufactured, manufactured by people who actually have no clue in this world what they are doing. Disgusting,,,,,, Over priced Rubbish, we sell pods for £9.000, £25.000, £33.000,£38.000 and even £179.000 and none of them have ever turned out this way, because we tell our customers firstly how to treat them, and secondly what we manufacture is 100% quality, unlike this mess.
When you are looking for a quality camping pod, do not look for ones with roofs made of timber, it means your fucking stupid! If timber was a good product to put on roofs all the houses would have it? Some people want to earn money so they purchase some land with an amazing view then they put in that view shit pods that look like old army barracks of world war 1, and why, because they had enough to purchase both land and a quality pod, but decided to buy the land and fill it with rubbish. and spend the rest on a holiday, I know you are all thinking I am being cruel, I am not, and this is why so many local authorities ask to see the plans of the Pods and which manufacturer if making them, and yes we are known in this industry as one of the top manufacturers.
Next getting back to this crap laid out on these awful cheap bases,If you look at the boxes on the same wall, these are for electric, and that black, and blue stain means that its a wet area, and then you throw electric into the mix. Not a very safe environment for children, staff, public, anyone for that matter.
Now here is a old , old photo of one of our first Pods, as this was where the standard was started for side entrance pods, and you will notice that rather than companies copy us and make it better, the total opposite has happened,,, its a shame..
Camping Pod 2.4m x 6.0 m first ever manufaturered
this was the first ever 2.4m x 6m Pod made, quality second to none, looks strong and handsome, clean and tidy. Why, because we made it. We manufacture houses, pods are our side line, which is why our customers always end up having us manufacture everything. If you want the best come to us.
Most companies never show the insides of their cabins, and there is a really good reason for this, they look even worse inside as they do out, yeah, once again I jump on the other companies and call them all crap etc, but sadly being the Granddad of this industry, and seemingly being the only one who actually wants to change things, make cabins better and better, not worse, always upping the quality and keeping prices the same, selling direct, through our LTD UK companyand pushing the customer to pay with a credit card , for their own protection, is quite a move forward, I am seriously happy with what we have accomplished over this last year, we got rid of the middle man, we don’t need them, they always said the shed companies that we needed them, customers will not buy direct, they are worried, what a load of bollocks, customers love saving 1000’s and getting more and a better cabin, plus excellent customer service. Most shed, companies are just rip off merchants. They resell our hard work, earn more than us, and scream for low prices. They are the scum of this industry completely!
We have our own building teams in the UK that are cheaper than shed companies and better, we have direct line of sales to you, and best part is, we know what your going to get, when its leaving and when it will get there.
Next we use Russian Scotts Pine, Our timber looks Russian, and trust me when I say the grain is as tight as your wallet! North London Humour!
Check Out the quality of this building inside, its built by the best, us, hand picked timber, all cut on a new CNC Multisize Log Cabin Line.
Our Doors and windows as you can see have new for 2021-2022 multi locking system plus each door has 3 German hinges and as you can see quality here is 101%.
Why do people in general come to us, simple, they have money to spend, want the best, understand that we know whats good and bad, want to buy from a Brit, that started this whole industry, want to buy from someone that will tell them the truth, more importantly you are going to feel safe with your choice, forget Resellers, they are here today and sadly your money and them gone tomorrow, we are the choice, you do not ask someone to go to the bank for you, you go yourself, so if you want to spend 1000’s then give it to the girls and guys that are here today, and will not be gone tomorrow.. We can give you hundreds of references, we are also on our banks blog as being one of the best manufacturers to sell to the public by credit card last year, but most people who buy from us, have read my blog, and these people know that I hate liars, and con men, I just want to give you the best of the best as quickly as possible and I am told I do this well! And everyone I work with always come back, especially in the Holiday, Chalet, Pod, Lodge industry.
So many things to think of and here is a list for you to think over.
Firstly you are not looking for a cheap crap mass produced log cabin. You’re not, your bank account thinks you should and your telling yourself that a 34mm and a 70mm is the same it’s not, but you don’t, as wasting money is wasting money, so stay away from Resellers 34mm log cabins and crap they are no better than an up market shed, quickly manufactured windows and doors, they fall apart almost immediately.
Our Windows and doors are not just a amazing they are the best, we have spent no expense on producing them, and making sure everyone in the industry is way way behind us in quality level.
Lots and Lots of companies have already tried to already copy our door design , hinges, quality handles and lots, but copying them is one thing, but getting the quality means you must pay for it, and we have.paid for ours heavily, our doors are not allowed to be put into the cabin until they are completely and utterly stained and waterproofed, they they can be fitted, the reason for this is that they are manufactured from joinery timber, and their moisture content is very low and they will expand and not fit if they are not treated until exposed to the weather.
This is not a cheap cabin, no no means but it will stand its ground for more than 20 years…. FACT!
You are not looking for a concrete foundation that will crack and be damp. You are not looking for a company that shows you a pretty picture and delivers you a mess. missing bits, broken parts etc, and the sales man , woman , tells you they are the best of the best and you be as snug as a bug all year round, and the walls are 44mm single skin. You are not looking for a company who cuts its timber from Baltic Spruce or Pine, its quick grown and rubbish, Imedeska and a few other manufacturers, sell baltic pine, they basically bid in the local market for local logs, cut it, dry it, in old uncertified kilns, and then sell it on with mass profit, it splits, it looks nice a white, sandy coloured, but honestly the timber is crap.and it will rot in 7 years with or with out stain, rot protection, the timber is too new to hold any kind of self oil, and then you will remember back to reading this blog and remember when i said buying cheap is foolish.
After designing this beautiful amazing building so many years ago, I so Love it when a member of the Public, Ian, calls me up and tells me he wants to buy one direct, and then he spends a small fortune to make my design look the best it could ever look.
We started our company here in Lithuania some 20 years ago, then when the UK decided it was to leave the EU so did we, and now we trade direct as a UK LTD company to the same audience but giving our customers something unique, and that is this, we have the largest collection of our own designed log cabins and timber buildings, and now we can sell them to you direct from our Factory, and you can pay us by credit card, and unlike everyone else, your getting your building direct from source, no greedy middle fingers, no one going bust on you or running away, as far as i am concerned you would be mad going anywhere else, unless your looking for cheap rubbish, then yes, we are not the company to speak to, and again from us manufacturing your log cabin in record time, and your getting a building that is freshly manufactured, its not from a pile of old mass produced cabins manufactured in 2019, our prices are great, your not purchasing your log cabin from a reseller who goes bust and runs off when he spends profit first and then can’t afford to pay us for his cabin bill, this happens far too often, and please check out our windows and doors.
Day and Night our Clock Houses looks amazing, thank you Ian for the photos, this Clock House is in Windsor, and fits amazingly beside a beautiful house, as this is the top of the line, Log Cabin. Factory Cabins is known for quality, please check out our windows and doors.
Ian your house does our design justice, or is it the other way around, not sure, but side by side, Perfect………..
Hi everyone, this whole virus routine is back again, I HEAR YOU ALL SCREAMING YOUR THOUGHTS AT ME, AND TO ALL, Yeah I KNOW, but the only help I can offer is a place of silence, warmth, and zero drama, amazing value and working from home is amazing actually, depends or for some not so, rolling out of bed, getting dressed in something super comfy, forget the rushing for trains, or driving in traffic, loud noises, smelly uncomfortable tube rides, and the real focusing on your work blown by getting into a bad mood before your even behind your desk to work, I hated the rain and getting wet, getting to work finding my spot gone to park and then running in the rain to the lobby and then remembering the security card to get into the office I had left in the car, and many of us have been through this, and then wanting, needing a garden office, you need space for and wanting it now, then you go on line and you see prices from 3000 pounds for a shed thats only fit for a lawn mower, to 80.000 pounds thats honestly worth 20.000 pounds, you need honesty, you need a office that honestly will be exactly what you need and no messing. around.
Always pay with a credit card.
So what do you do? OK, you firstly call 100’s of companies selling cabins, and they all say the same crap, cabins last over 10 years, 44mm is perfect, or go to a 90mm glulam as its perfect, but costs a lot more, then you ask how long they say 20 to 25 weeks, and then payment, which is always the sore subject, the red ball that bounces round the room and he says, oh! its X and please pay to this account, and and and.
OK! Let’s rewind, firstly we have lots and lots of different cabins, which are built from timber frame or machined log, and I would guarantee not one of them really honestly suits your needs, which is why nearly 99.9% of our cabins are altered in some way or other. most companies cut Twinskin log cabin cavities at 57mm because thats the CNC optimal cutting in which the log will not super vibrate and snap off. I know this because i was the first person to design, manufacture and sell a Twin Skin, and ours cavities are wider, and not just because of structural reasons, A twin skin 5.7m x 5.7m in 70mm with 100mm gap, is what i would always say the perfect garden office.
Most sales guys in this industry have no idea on this subject, when you buy from us you are travelling on a quick conveyer belt to an easy solution to get your cabin, because dealing direct means sensible pricing, and a quick turn around, we can make everything happen, and quickly.
Dark Cloud subject….The year before last we got rid of so many of our resellers, dealers, because we found that most not all stole from customers, either in over pricing or literally stealing, and we at LV and FC believe in our Brand which is the best in log cabins industry, we have been working hard to keep standards high and to make the market a better safer place and better looking windows and doors, better made and last longer, our standard windows and doors now are just over the top with quality, and i am so proud that we designed them, and brought them to the table, we never sit down, sorry to get back to the topic, also their skills at selling was awful they forgot what was important, most are overwhelmed at the amount of business there is, and what they should and must tell the customer, and we train them, spending hours on each Reseller, and allowing them. to use our content to show the customer what they are getting, but we have decided to stop with resellers after 2023, we have a few resellers left, but they are true craftsman and know their, our product.
So we were discussing pricing,…
Let’s talk about pricing. We would push you to Pay Us with a Credit Card, why you are asking…well because you are safe, we want you to understand that no matter who you pay, and who you buy a cabin from make sure when buying a log cabin in the UK, or Europe, Credit Card. deposit, credit card, last payment, credit card, if the company asks you to pay direct into the bank, avoid them. if they do not have the ability to accept cards, it does not mean. they are a bad company but it does mean your protection is gone..
We tell our resellers that we are very happy when they get their customers to pay by card, we feel its a must, not all agree with us, and we can not force them.
Today we have a problem, timber prices, gas prices, fuel prices could and do rise in an instant, and if a company, reseller sells you a cabin, and does not order it from us till the end of the month or following and has not asked us for a price, and this kind practice, it done by many Log Cabin companies, sadly its common in the UK, and they do this with their overseas suppliers and mainly it’s because of money transfers etc, and something you to remember is we supply these people with our products only , we do not pay them a salary, they are not linked to us in any other way that they buy our products and resell them. And when they come to order your cabin from us which you paid them for the prices could have risen and if they are not aware of this or have not put this into their pricing structure, then this is where the problems start. They are our customer, you are not. So what we think is right and wrong, legally we have nothing to say to them. Which is why we sell direct, and we have amazing reviews, and we always make sure our customers gets their products. We do not offer anything but the shell, if you want a full turn Key, we can sell you a shell, and then try and help you with local tradesman in your area to do the rest, we would sell you the cabin, and the trades guys you would pay direct, you get a full turn key , office, granny flat , spare room or garage. what ever, but it would be the best. And thats why we say to people buy direct, as we know our prices from month to month, we keep to our pricing, and we never let people down, if they shut the boarders, or close roads, or governments ban trucking, or there is a massive covid outbreak, then sadly we can not do any thing about this, none of us can, but we try our best.
Always pay with a credit card.
What we have found is that the public do not ask many questions, and they pay and they wait, and thats that, we are very different, as we want the experience to be very interactive with us so our customer feels able to say exactly what they want and how they feel.
But always, always, please pay them with a credit card. It keeps you safe always.
I am sorry to say, but our Irish Dealer Leon Vlahovic who is working with our Brand in Southern Ireland, has gone into administration. this we have found out not to be the truth.
Leon found it very hard to deal with the covid, also falling off a ladder, breaking his leg and ankle while out doing an assembly, ( this we found out to be a lie) and sadly the timber prices and the inflation in Ireland, and many other factors, have left Leon unable to continue business. he sadly lied to everyone, and we feel ashamed that we even know this guy, its the second time in Ireland this has happened.
( PAY WITH A CREDIT CARD )
Leon Vlahovic will not be trading our LV log cabins from now on. As a precaution, we always say this, please do not give this dealer a deposit etc, as he is not now a dealer of log cabins or timber buildings.
Because Leon Vlahovic has not been arrested or found guilty of any crime, all we can only say that (Leon Vlahovic is not an LV Log Cabins dealer) , and please do not hand him over any money.
( we should add that any customer who is selling our brand, when we think something is amiss we tell the public that this certain dealer does not have Our Brand to sell LV, if he sells something and he has committed a crime, we will make a blog about this)
If anyone is looking for Leon, please give us a call , and we are looking for a customer Fergus Roche, If you are Fergus, please please give us a call ASAP. We have now had the Lawyer of Fergus Roche call us, and we have instructed her not to pay any more money, I must say the lawyer was very very rude, We are also happy to Say we found Emma, and Robbie, and have enough info to offer to the authorities.
As a company with over 20 years of selling to different companies log cabins, in many different countries, and actually getting 2 dealers of ours arrested and on TV for scamming customers, we are quite proud that we are very active in helping people and stop the fraud that is very much part of this industry. But I must say I am fed up with explaining to customers to use credit cards as a matter of payment to the dealer. https://www.logcabinslv.co.uk/blog/2021/11/14/cowboys-and-log-cabins/ this is just one of many blogs i have written, but no one listens.
PAY BY CREDIT CARD………………………………..
Now to today after listening to a lawyer, and the disgusting way she spoke to me, and blaming us here at the factory for another company stealing money off a poor customers, and us trying our best to stop this made me realise that something must be said.
When a manufacturer, who sells 100’s of cabins a year, to many different countries all self employed Dealers who all trade under their own company name , who then sell it on to their customers, and yes they can sell it as an LV Log Cabin, in so far as they are telling the customers that its an LV cabin our brand is the best, we have companies telling their clients its an LV when its not, we have customers who steal our images and say LV, if you read this blog you will see many of them, . As our brand its the best, and also has amazing reviews world wide, and as soon as crooked dealer steals off the customer, sadly we are not to blame, and the lawyer knew this today, as the dealer is self employed and he/she was selling to the customer ( Credit Card) , not us, we had no knowledge of this sale if it was or was not sold, if its a bespoke cabin we are then asked by our self employed dealer ( Leon) for a quote from us to price, and that’s that, the only time we get to know a name is if its quoted for, if the trader wants it, we send his company an invoice and everything moves on from there, he then gives to his customer the cabin if he has paid….BUT… If he takes money, and does not buy from us, we do not know, if he does or does not it’s not our concern. but there is more to this, because if the lawyer thinks we are responsible then all the other contractors are too, and our lawyer friend, the lawyer then must go after the all contractors who Leon was going to use to lay the concrete bed,-2000-2500- she must also go after the-3000 to 5000 Kitchen supplier and 2000 bathroom supplier, and everything else Leon promised, 800 Bed supplier, 800 Boiler, electrician, 1500 plumbing guy, 2/3/4000 depending on what is used roofing contractor, and the suppliers of that, as we supply the bare skin shell, Our price for the cabin is a very small part of the actual cost. Which one of our customers Emma has found, we managed to stop her cabin being resold as the time limit was up and storage and mill costs needed to be paid, which was coming to more than 1000 euros, as leon had stored the building and did not pay the trucking company . As a company this is another companies issues, and legally we have no right in law to stick our nose in, but those that know me, know I do. There were many cabins priced, Fergus, Emma , and and and, luckily the one in stock was Emma in Ireland, and she paid the charge Leon owed and got her cabin.
Getting back to a rude lawyer, that woman made me angry, this year i got TV3 in sweden, FSC, Ikea and Parliament together to speak about the deforestation of trees as Ikea was cutting massive lumps of forest and not replanting. And this woman calls me up and speaks to me like I am the bad guy and it’s all my fault. Where the fault lays is that she knows what to do, and that’s going to the clients address and giving him a lift to the Police Station.
Everyone who knows us knows we hate all this kind of disgusting behaviour, fraud, theft, and misinformation.
If someone takes something from you……. and they do not give it to you, its fraud, clear and simple, and its Police Matter, not Lawyer, pay me money!
If the company goes bankrupt, then it’s down to the liquidators to collect from the estate and hand it out evenly
And what makes me angry, is that she knows what the customer must do, but she then plays I will save the day and hands out large bills for a job she should not be getting involved with, and she knows this, and she knows who to call, but she wants to earn money from a poor old man who had 30.000 stolen from him. Then she starts threatening people. Which is rather counterproductive, as her motives are only self driven. And against a company that will sue her for defamation. And when we went back to her with some history, she was not interested, acted the high and mighty and seriously our company Lawyers child are more polite.
If you live in Dublin and you go to Colins BMW Service, and they sell you a car, you are buying from Colins, not BMW,we give our Self Employed Dealers warranty on this and that we are not giving to the customer, as the customer is not the purchaser to us, the Self Employed Dealer is.
So you all bough your cabins from Straight Solutions Kilkenny R95TPD9 IRELAND, owner Leon Vlahovic of Kilkenny R95TPD9 IRELAND, and all monies and payments were made directly to Leons Vlahovic company Straight Solutions Kilkenny R95TPD9 IRELAND also all sales and communication to do with your building was done from you to Leon Straight Solutions Kilkenny R95TPD9 IRELAND.
Only we at Log Cabins LV are allowed to use the url.LV we do not offer this out to any dealer.
If Leon owes you money, please contact the Police, not a lawyer. Our Lawyer has told us to ask all customers that were dealing with Leon Vlahovic, who was a full Self Employed Dealer of Log Cabins, Timber Buildings, Ground Works and who bought from us only Log Cabins, he also bought from other companies log cabins to make an official complaint. We have been instructed by Leon of Straight Solutions that he would take care of all his clients, we did not have a list, just a few names he threw at us for pricing, which we have tried to find, we found one, and as I said the lawyer was so incredibly rude. And most have come to us. We have asked them all to report this to the correct officials ( that being the police) who do not charge you money. as in most cases the poor customer has lost already enough through lies and deceit.
We helped Pope Concor a few years back in Ireland track down a very very very bad dealer , and get him arrested for selling awful cabins, and just being crooked through and through, as we hate this, and I am sure I will have a discussion with him on this . Also mention how lawyers are profiting from this misery when there is only one course of justice. This rude woman really has put my back up, and she is promising something to someone she can not give, and charging for it.
Leon Vlahovic is working under the guise of Straight Solutions.
If you are looking for a great brand of cabins, and are fed up with dishonest dealers, please come to us direct. +370 6889 3563
Log Cabins LV apologises for the trouble this man has caused, we can only check someone a certain amount, and the rest we must take on face value. Leon seemed like a trustable guy, he was selling cabins before we met him, but he wanted a better product, I think we can all agree on this, but his smile was a lie.
Anyway, that’s enough of that. Pay by card….. Always for anything under £30.000
OK lets firstly look at the pricing aspect of log cabins in the UK, Skinners sheds, or Dunster House or whoever, and there are many who ever’s, their pricing, its changed, and all of them are up 60% but have they added anything of value more to the cabins, the answer to that is no, now sadly the British Public, and I am one of them, think that if it’s too cheap, then its cheap, and if its too high priced, then i can not afford it, but if its middle ground I am going to get something half decent In some industries of sale, that might be true, but in the Log Cabin industry that is not the case even slightly, most cabins from nearly 99,9% of dealers in the UK are the same, baltic pine and super expensive, actually if truth was to be known they are taking the piss out of you and smiling all the way to the bank. So let’s dissect a cabin, what have you got that is worth 1000’s and 1000’s of pounds. Customer service, is as always, in most companies , YUK!
Let’s take this company that are using our images without our consent.
Original pic comes from us, skinners sadly have no skilled staff or vision and must always steal from others what they can not pay for , or design, themselves. Its quite funny actually as this company was once the leading light in the cabin industry, we supplied them for the whole of the south east, then sadly they went to the dark side, and bought crap cheap mass produced cabins and tried and still try and sell them off as ours. Their sales staff lie and say its their design, lol… their pics, etc, and then they ask you for money. (really)… https://www.factorycabins.co.uk/product/log-cabins-oxford-6-5-x-3-5m-df32/ this is the original…..
Oh, and by the way. skinners do not offer windows and doors of any quality, the timber is baltic pine, and on a scale of 1 to 10 they come in at a 3.
This is our unique Log Cabin style,
If you take a close look, you will notice that our cabins against Skinners, Johnsons, Dunster, Quick Garden, Tuin, Waltons and 100% Lugarde are 100% better. Firstly we provide doors and windows that none of these companies mentioned, would ever offer you, if they did their pricing would be through the roof, plus they would need new CNC machines, Blades, skilled workman and Joinery Timber and most importantly have the want to offer better, and not just manufacture Bulk.
Ex works means we help with everything, and you buy direct from Factory!
So why pick us, well, simple, our prices are very very fair considering the quality your getting, Russian Northern Scots Pine, no baltic quick grown lumber in our cabins, we are manufacturing long lasting cabins of quality and distinction, not Ikea furniture.
Yes we would all like to own my designed Clock House, it is beautiful and yes we would all like one in the garden, it has a £5000 Britment Plastic Tiled roof and our new Deluxe, now standard, windows and doors .https://www.google.com/search?q=log+cabins&sxsrf=AOaemvL-1txHKWIFgXnrNuHoG6UCS20xlA:1634666013886&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiF1dW4hdfzAhU5QkEAHRc1DgcQ_AUoAnoECAIQBA&biw=2540&bih=1266&dpr=1 If you follow this link it will show you a google search on UK Log Cabins, you can compare like for like, and nothing, and i mean nothing comes close to OUR quality, our quality, and the main reason is simple, we care, we really,really do, and the others care about ONLY MONEY! Yes we are a business, however I am glad to see that the public understand quality, and we are that, and price is not everything. We are neither high or low, the cost of our cabins and our work are what they are supposed to be.
Sanctuary, that’s what people come to us for, they want peace and quiet, and a room in the garden to get out their Ipad, or Notebook, or just a kindle and read and Chill.and they want it to be part of their lives for years and years, and they want to feel safe, and that mother nature stays out and the warmth stays in, we offer this, in quality, and at a great price. Next, which is really very important, our windows and doors are manufactured from high quality joinery timber, with a moisture content of nearly (2%) they can not be left outside until treated. Sadly mother nature would, hurt them, so it is advised to stain them immediately. Or your fitter does.
This Beautiful little cabin has a shed on the back of it. Would like to give a massive shout out to Lee for his fitting abilities, and love the green carpet! lol.
This beast, Twin 70mm x70mm with a 100 gap, was built by leon, and as always did an amazing job.
If you are looking for quality, then, please give us a shout.
Please Call us and speak to a member of staff that actually understands cabins, pods, timber frame buildings and so very much more. +44 0208 133 5164
Seriously check out this cabin, really check it out, it’s just simply amazing, and it is actually the best of the best to be offered in this cut throat market, most mills will lie and lie, and when you get the product it’s simply awful. But how are you to know any better, simple, look at my REAL photos, the only touch ups is to my belly in some of the photos, But seriously check out the windows and doors, the quality of the timber, the cut, the finish, the presence, the cabin is beautiful.
As soon as I add quality german hinges to my cabins, sadly there are companies that have already copied my hinge design and added black similar chinese very cheap hinges to try and fool you, you can not mistake ours with this rubbish, they forgot to make the windows thicker, they forgot to add a 5 point locking system on their doors and windows and they also forgot to remove the plastic from his windows sills, as we all love plastic , we use quality aluminum to the windows and doors, and if you notice the windows ( opening ones have 2) they also forgot to make the windows and doors from joinery timber, and lastly .
Plus they forgot to add German quality handles, and if you think the first and last part of the cabin you touch is the door handle, it’s important that every part of the cabin is quality.
Black looks awful, cheap and apart from that, the timber used on this cabin is Baltic Pine as it does not have a huge amount of red pigment.
OK thats a look at the low end of the market.
A Factory Cabins LTD High Quality Building.
Welcome to the top end, where the cabins are built to last, they look amazing, and we always leave the site in immaculate condition.
TwinSkin Log Cabins are without doubt, without doubt the best way of having a very large insulated structure and are still cheaper than Sips and Timber Frame.
So why do think my twin skins are better, simple, i was the first to ever make one, design them and manufacture and offer to market, and over the years where others that have copied my design have not moved on, i have, i make them better than anyone else, I fit them out with superb windows and doors, and lastly I make sure that my build crews in the UK and Ireland know what they are doing.
Now let’s look at the competition, because if your smart your going to look around and find out what’s what and who’s who, so the first thing to do is make sure the timber is Belarusian or even Better Russian, not quick grown Splitting Baltic Pine or Spruce, Imedeska uses Baltic as do 90% of mills, sadly in the UK your timber industry like gas and other industries have started to fade and fade away, which is sad, but Inevitable, you have given Russia so many sanctions and bit the hand that fed you so often you are now in quicksand, slowly sinking, I think Boris will stop working with the EU on many fronts soon, and make ties, make peace, with Putin, and understand he is not our enemy, don’t listen to any of the left wing bullshit they tell you about him, its all crap.
Russia has without doubt the best timber in the world, forget canada, they mostly have douglas fir and Cedar, which is not particularly good for cabins, Russia Red and White is what you need your cabin manufactured from, and that’s where we come in, unlike most in the world, our timber is Russian, which is why the pine is so Red, it’s tough amazing timber that is perfect for cabins, and it’s all I want to manufacture from.
Always pay with a credit card.
So many mills like Dunster will say Russian this and Russian that, Blar Blar Blar. Estonian, Baltic Spruce , Pine.
Why am I so mad on Pine, simple it soaks up the treatment quickly and deeply, spruce does not!
Why do I love my websites, even if they are old and slightly out of date, or my other old LV website that’s simply is just huge and full of all my ideas and the way i have changed in character and personality and taste, simple answer, I love my websites because they are all my ideas, nothing is ripped off from others, apart from words that I use to tell , explain, to help people understand about whatever it is i designed or think is a good or bad Idea., these words are borrowed and i have no clue who invented them, but thanks, the designs you see and look at on all my sites, my blog and where ever, they are part of me, my soul to want to make people’s lives different and for there to be better everything in life for everyone. So many people are sad, angry and just not worth talking to because their anger is poisonous , but i try and I try and make everyone’s life a better place, but perfection is not a log cabin, perfection is us, and how we are able to understand that everyone has their limits, and to live with that without drama and smile at the imperfections as the learnings of others.
And with this heart I manufacture my structures and laugh when just one out of the 1000’s i have designed sell, it means that my thoughts and feeling came through to that one individual and that makes me a happy man!
Imagine, your looking for a quality timber frame building, you want , need it to conform to all the new EU/UK thermal and building regulations, your not exactly spoilt for choice as the UK has zero timber, zero anything actually and everyone want you to pay double, the gas prices are rising, taxes are going up and the stamp duty has returned. Gone are the days of people being helped by the governments, which is why they are now coming to us, The Factory which means you are buying from the factory. We offer unlike 99.9% of Factories in this industry payment by credit card, also we supply the trade with bespoke buildings they can put up themselves and rebrand it if they want, but all in all, most come to us.
What annoys me is this, British People have their nose in the Air, and talk crap about buying their buildings from Lithuania or other baltic countries, they do not have any problems about the poor Brazilian children Picking with their little fingers the coffee green small coffee beans thats failed to roast in the sun, you have no problems swallowing the coffee, or wiping you ass on toilet paper that comes from Germany and other countries , we import more toilet paper than any other EU, ( ok we are out ) but most of you are using german recycled poo paper on your butt every morning, and your going to ask why, simple, you have no forests, and because of that no pulp, which means no paper, so you import 130 million tons of toilet paper in a year.
Has that woken you up a little, because if you also look around you, no matter where you are there are no forests, they were all cut down by labor, and that means you must import it, which means all your timber goes through 6 pairs of hands before you can get it, and thats a-lot of added value to a bit of timber, so coming directly to us it makes common sense for you and your wallet, if you have any prejudice then thats your look out and go and see a shrink, because nearly everything around you comes from somewhere other than the UK, even the rain that fall is no doubt from somewhere else.
So lets talk about timber, because i live on the edge of the largest wood in the world, I can see the beginning of it from my office window, and at night my air into my bedroom is the cleanest in the world, remember the trees are our planets lungs, and we are all about making the best houses using the latest technology and using the best timber with little or no waste.
As you can see our Private Schools are stupidly over manufactured and exquisite to look at, minimalism being the path we pick, as functionality must be added with longevity and quality.
If you are looking for a low footprint, energy efficient, low maintenance building, then , this is what we specialise in. And we don’t just do a good job, we do an amazing one.
Please do not get us confused for any one else, we are www.factorycabins.co.uk, and in the UK there is no one better, actually there is no one who can even come close.
If you are looking for still C24/KD graded timber, from Russia, and quality windows and doors, made on one of the most expensive house C and C lines in the world, then we are the girls and guys to speak to. Imagine this, our line is so fast, it can cut/ screw and fill an 80 sq meter house, from floor to roof in 24 hours, and assemble it in sections, ready to build.
Over many years of manufacturing and design, Factory Cabins has brought to the European Garden Market some amazing quality Log Cabins, Scandinavian Cabins, Interlocking Buildings, Twin Skin Log Cabins, Timber Frame Buildings, Camping Pods and much more.
We always strive to push quality and design first, as great pricing comes from understanding your manufacturing process, and as one of the fore-fathers of log cabins we really understand about how to conserve timber, but never allowing that to effect safety of design.
Our CEO and the designer behind the Clock house Log Cabin, the Twin Skin Log Cabin System and so many other recognized log cabins on the market believes that quality should always be in the forefront of manufacturing.
As you will notice all our photos, images are watermarked with our Trade Mark, where you see this on an image, or a photo, you can then be assured that it is from us, if there is not our Trade Mark on the image it is not, then its not from us, even if the image looks similar to one of ours.
In the market place today there are a lot companies selling a great deal of different brands, this does not mean that if there is a Factory Cabins Logo on an image on a Multi Selling web site everything on the page its manufactured by us, please check with theus, too many frauds out there. When you purchase a log cabin and you are in doubt of its origin please check the plans as they bear a unique manufacturing number and our logo/trademark, if in doubt please do not hesitate to drop us an email with the unique number, which is located on the bottom right hand corner of the build plans.
Please click the link and this will take you to a page of companies that only retail our product, these cabins we can 100% vouch for and you are assured that you are getting the quality you have paid for. Thank you.
Thank you for reading this,
If its not an LV, or Factory Cabins branded log cabin, then your buying mass produced rubbish’
Why is everyone complaining about prices, why? What do you expect when you close all industry down for more than a year on the whole planet, you think its just going to jump straight back up and start pumping out again the same old rubbish as before? No, people have changed and changed a lot, people who drove lorries now want to be farmers and have a slower life, those that worked in the factories now want to work from home, or start up their own business, this Virus has changed us all, and timber prices as well as everything else has gone up, why? Because there is demand, but sadly though there is not enough timber to go around, plus and this is the funny thing, in the UK for years we have listened to government and the EU about how bad everyone is but us, it’s amazing really, because we are all as bad as each other, now as a Britt, I have not lived in the UK for many, many years, and I have travelled extensively and met all walks of life from many different countries, but today we will speak about 2 in particular. Russia and Belarus. Both these countries have own the vast majority of the lungs of the world, (Forests in case someone is confused). Now these two countries are always jumped on for being run by criminals, dictators and the like, which is utter rubbish, because you all in the EU or UK are being told YOU MUST HAVE THE VACCINE, that is dictatorship. That is exactly what we say about Russia and Belarus, even to the point where the passports must be changed now in the EU and UK to show who has and who has not been vaccinated. I thought we all had a choice, seems not. Am I really living in a freedom of speech state, where my thoughts and wants, desires and needs are respected, well sadly no we are not? Our governments were supposed to change every so many years, now we have career politicians running everything, year after year and lying weekly and daily, and nothing is done about it, and most are complete and utter paedophiles and inbreeds.
So taking that all into account, who are we to jump into other people’s elections and disturb them and try and land grab land, if the Belarussian people think it’s better in the EU, ask the Greeks, they will tell you the truth. The grass is never greener.
EU sucks, its completely corrupt and run by absolute career politicians. Who care nothing about your well-being. Which is why the vaccines were late being rolled out, Italy suffered terribly, as did UK, but the UK government was thank fully not under direction of the EU, otherwise we would have had 1000s of more deaths. The EU even used the soft boarder and threatened to make it a hard boarder in Ireland over vaccines, treating the Irish like cattle. So, most of you have a slight idea about what and who we have playing with our lives on a daily basis, and these people also tried to destroy an election in Belarus, and in Ukraine, and Russia and wherever they see fit. So…. It is laughable, these countries hold the majority of the Timber, Construction, wood on this side of the planet, so now Russia, Belorussia and the like are telling the EU and the UK, go scratch. What ever you want, pay for it now. And that’s why houses, cabins, sheds, fencing, decking, floorboards, construction timber all around the globe has tripled in price. In the future Russian companies and Belorussian companies will own companies in the UK and sell their lumber directly to the public and cut out the middle man, they will sell it cheaper, and better quality. This is the future.
And if you are one of the lucky ones to be able to source it now, then happy days, but most can’t…
Shocked is not the word, this is disgusting, its all most as bad as price of sheds, decking, and other timber related goods in the UK, and the amount people are charging you , its a rip off. Sadly the south is hit the hardest, and then London and the areas around it.
I just want to show the difference in this brief blog.
When looking for a cabin, please think about the 44mm x 44mm log cabins on factory cabins, cheaper than the rest, we designed this system, and we are the leaders in this, plus our windows and doors are with out doubt the best then anyones.
Check out these cabins.
Now we will show you similar cabins of ours but please check out our pricing. Its mind blowing.
OK the first is bigger than that displayed by www. i love your money .com, And the price for out larger more unique, better designed, better actually in every way in 70mm is £5040 ex works, where our www. i love your money .com, £4581 more. Hello, is some one just a dumb stupid greeedy idiot or what, trading standards should be knocking tomorrow at your door. Virus does not mean we rip people off.
Then here comes the real , serious rip offs, Check out the two last cabins, and you will see they are both priced similar, one in 35mm, thats not a bad size if you want cheap and cheerful, and then there is 44mm which is my favourite, and it hardly splits and never twists if its put up quickly and treated, put on a good flat base and you add the gutters etc. Flat base, gutters, good body stain, decent roof covering and a good drain away and our cabins will last 20 + years, I personally have the first ever 44mm twin skin building ever made, and i can say hand on heart do a good job at the beginning and it could out live you, and i have designed the windows and doors to be super hardy!
Below is a building that is say £3000 cheaper than both, yet is bigger, better looking, it has my designed roof, and your friends will do a back flip when they go inside and have a look at your new chill out room. bar, pool room, or just office.
And if the mill cuts the corners from its timber logs it means they are twisted and it stops you seeing the twist. Now you know and you know what to look out for and not buy.
Actually I have no clue, but we are up there with the 1% that do.
Sorry about the swearing but as the saying goes the more swearing the higher the intelligence.
So what is so very special about us and our girls and guys that are out their fitting and helping you with your orders through this very hard times we have.
Yes timber is hard to come by, but we can still get the best of the best, yes windows and doors are hard to get the hardware for, but Germany came through as always, and yes there are many, too many people out there complaining that everything takes time, to those people, GO AWAY…. This has been the worst year for people just wanting to complain, and everyone is super aggressive, why? have no idea, but life moves on and ignoring the muppets that lost their sheep and concentrating on the serious people who do not moan if what i do.. I have no time to waste as we are super busy with people that really understand this industry and cabins are not manufactured from plastic.
One of my amazing dealers had a old stupid woman call her and say she had a problem with her cabin she had bought 2 years ago, my agent of 12 years said what can i help you with she said the water is coming in, my agent asked for photos, and then the old woman like most started shouting credit card and all this, crap about unfit and and. Well she forgot to put gutters on her building for two years….. People should read terms and conditions. Always Guttering….. And Draining…. Then she calls one of my agents threatens her with liable action and shouts out credit card this and that, always read terms and conditions, your house is not sitting in water, so what should your amazing log cabin ( my amazing log cabins) ?? Some people are just exceptionally stupid.
This annoyed me because we always fix what needs to be fixed if it does and normally before America, or China tried to kills us all, i forgot freedom of speech is not allowed anymore, like woman racing against Biologically other woman, forbidden, now anyone is anything they want, but telling the truth is not allowed. why and who thought it was a great idea to lets gays run against woman, just because your balls are missing does not mean your a girl. Really pisses me off, the left have destroyed the man, and woman bringing into play the lets all be gay lesbian and messed up, take drugs and have implants and completely upset the simple rhythm of the planet, MAN , WOMAN CHILD. To all those offended, ( free speech, piss off).
OK cabins enough ranting, Biden, the glasses you gave President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin are fucking cheap awful shit, you stupid old man!
Our Old are not respected, our war memorials are smashed, our statues are pulled down, and the last straw our family values eroded and pushed aside for something that is sadly just completely sick.
OK check out this amazing cabin by us…… totally heterosexual!
OK… As you know I say it straight from the hip and I never say something with out evidence, whats really funny is that, when i write something, some stupid, middleman in the UK, who has never been in a forest in his life, and i mean in the middle of the Russian Forest, and seen felling, harvesting of the logs, and seen the full process, has no clue about anything about cabins, apart from the fact that even in these hard times and the price of timber is rising up and up, they still want to rip you off as quickly as they can.
So i was Really shocked and surprised, when i saw one of my cabin designs, from years and years ago, and the price of it, made me laugh, because it should be called “I like to RIP YOU OFF, not i love cabins, more like i love money.
I like LogCabins ,Imagine, £ 13.732.78 Factory Cabins £ 5880, and its the same size cabin, my windows and doors are amazing, no clue about the other company, but the price difference you could buy hand made wooden bespoke metal facial windows and doors. German, and still have change. So why the high prices? Yes my cabins are are all priced ex works, yes mine have zero taxes, so add £ 3000, tax and transport, and you get £8056, I make a profit still, so why the £13.732.78 ?…… Many words come to mind, but i will let you make your mind up which one to use.
Evidence…….. i have added the link of this page, https://www.ilikelogcabins.com/search/for/5m%20x%207m, this link will be stored on https://archive.org/web/, so if they delete it, like most do, you have the ability to go back and check their site if you want before they remove their page or my images. I love reporting this kind of Greed……
Its really up to you as the buyer who you decide to buy from, but do not moan about how long it takes to get to you, we have a virus which is global, and it seriously messes up everything when you least expect. But that does not mean you can be rude, selfish and disrespectful. We all want you to get your cabin in the hour you pay, but its not that easy any more.
And if you see this stupid sign that says buy British, then remember one thing, we do not have any timber left, none, exactly 12 thousand sq miles of it, which is zero, or I will put it another way.
We have 82 billion cubic meters of timber to play with, which is 45% of the country. Also another unknown fact, Right now, vast swathes of Russia are covered in “illegal” forests. 10% of all the forest in Russia (that’s an area about twice the size of Spain) lies in areas formerly or currently designated as agricultural land .This does mean its amazing, that we have vast forests, simple more trees, less food, less food grown, higher prices. Spain land mass is 195, 464 Sq miles, UK has only 12000 Sq miles of forest, do you see the picture now???
Of the 31,380 square kilometres (12,120 sq mi) of forest in Britain, around 30% is publicly owned and 70% is in the private sector. More than 40,000 people work on this land.
The area of the forest land actually covered by forests is 7,95 million km2 (3069512.16 sq mil) (RussianGovernment, 2020). Around 33.5% of the total forested area is composed of primaryforests, 64.1% of otherwise naturally regenerated forests, and the remaining 2.4% of planted forest.
(12,120 sq mi) (306,951,216 sq mil)
As you can see a slight difference, which means this……. STOP CUTTING TIMBER IN THE UK give the forests a rest……… Rest my case…
Please call us for pricing, we would love to display the pricing on our cabins, how ever the prices on timber are only going up and up monthly and its difficult to change the prices on the website, so we are having to do it the old way sadly, until Russia make their timber so stupidly expensive we will all just quit buying from them and start to buy from Canada, Many mills in Canada shut 3 years ago sadly, but when there is demand Then they will reopen. The reason pricing is going up for the very best timber, is that America is now as well as the Chinese buying Russian lumber in massive quantitates , and as you can imagine both are greedier than the other. China does not care about FSC so sadly they buy black market logs. And where there is money there are always men and woman who will risk cutting down huge amounts of forest to fill their greedy pockets.
SO WHY ARE THE COSTS OF TIMBER BUILDINGS GOING UP, SIMPLE, BLAME BIDEN! HE COULD BUY CANADIAN BUT REFUSES TO. HE COULD MINE HIS OWN OIL , BUT REFUSES TO, HE COULD GET HIS OWN GAS BUT REFUSES TO. HE JUST WANTS HE’SHES TO RUN IN THE OLYMPICS.
This is for China, America, and sadly none for the UK or Europe, the EU and UK sanctioned Russia for too long and too heavily, you the public are now paying the price for these sanctions, and will now I foresee forever. Reap what you sow and as you were all going ——Russia this and —-Russia that, the day would come when he would say —-you and now pay for the timber…. P V Putin is not what the Daily Mail or Washington portray him as, these are blind fools who know zero about timber, Russia ….and ….if you want to blame someone….The EU and now …BIDEN…. BIGGEST , BLINDEST, DUMBEST fool of them all.Off to China, Legal or Illegal who knows, but the trains never stops! I do not need to say more…….
OK before someone tells you, their windows and doors are amazing, please firstly look at their quality, then their price then tell them they have been smoking something extremely illegal all night and put the phone down, because, there is no one in the industry better than us when it comes to a standard, fit, no extra this and that windows and doors for a log cabin, we are exceptionally the best, and that is absolutly the truth, ask them all.
Now you may be wondering why I keep on ranting and raving (no not in Ibiza its shut) why i say we have the best windows and doors and the importance to this, simple, if your windows and doors break, fall apart leak, and then mother nature comes flooding with wind , rain and everything else, then that small space of tranquility is ruined. ! And to get the company you bought your cabin from 2 years down the road to replace them, or at least look at them and try and fix them, is as you know impossible, as ,most have gone bust, run from the VAT MAN, of changed names and do not have you on their books.
This really is the game of Log Cabins you are entering, I love this part of the market actually more than the houses we manufacture, as we manufacture to the top end of the market and my designs are unique to us and us only.
Anyway, here are some pics, up close and telling all, we can paint your doors and windows any colour you would like, please just ask.
OK, let’s look at facts and pictures, firstly facts, most, if not all cabin companies sell with their log cabins not just rubbish windows and doors, crap windows and doors if the truth was to be known. If you ask Dunster, Quick Garden, or even Tuin, Imedeska to look at their standard, no frills windows that come standard with their 44mm and upwards.
Let’s look at a no frills, standard, ok firstly hinges,
Yes you can guess, left hinge is nearly the whole of the low end mass produced log cabin market and 30% of the middle and ours, Hinge on the right, you presume correctly ours the number 1 hinge, German Manufactured, and a 5 year guarantee.
So Let’s add a few pics of bad, very bad windows and doors, it’s either the hinges are inadequate or the tilt and turn system is just rubbish, this is one to always look out for, if they offer you this system, then you will have problems in 3 years. Dunster House is owned by the Murphy Family, Daddy is Chris, https://find-and-update.company information.service.gov.uk/company/02913901/officers
Come on Dunster, let’s have a good look, a close up look of your windows and doors, because i know you’re hiding your quality,,, if it’s so good show it off like us… Lets see the thickness of your frame work, your joinery timber and your tip top windows and doors!
OK what I have decided to do is let you check out the companies at present selling their wares their way by You Tube, and please check out there windows and doors, look at drip trays, construction type, quality of workmanship and if you think your spending your money in the right place, and do not forget, Factory Cabins LTD has the best of the best in range, price, and of course quality of build.
And check out the windows and doors in these cabins…….. Talk about Cheap!!!!
Seriously have you looked at most of the windows and doors on these cabins, they are a joke, complete and utter joke, we even have a few that want you to IKEA some talk about mass produced way overpriced rubbish, and the paint on the last one was flaking off the frame, that’s quality assured..
Handle too small, normal for bulk cabins cheap and nasty all the way.this is the worst tilt and turn system in the market. Worst.Check out the hinges………. really…….REALLY,,,, AND FOR THIS THEY WANT ABOUT 200 POUNDS..So CNC….. check out the line up on that beautiful window, you know the guy that signed that off as a perfect window just got divorced.
Its crazy, but i was looking through my old hard drives and i found our old images we use to use in the old days, like 2001/2007 and then we changed, and they were just left in a folder and forgotten about, I know a few people still use them, but I just thought i would share them with you today and maybe you see something that over the time has disappeared from all our new designs we have now, which believe me is a the largest cabin designs in the world.
You know when you want to say something , but you can’t because it kind of spoils the surprise, well next week we will showcase our windows and everyones elses windows and doors and believe me when i say our new standard windows and doors will put to sleep the market spit spot!
Regarding purchasing Cabins, Timber Buildings or any item from Self Employed Dealers. Resellers, who sell our LV or FC brand, if you went to the Self Employed Dealers, reseller, first, please do not come to us, if you have a question, concerns please call us, but as they are resellers, we are unable to do anything legally to them regarding their prices , Please remember and do not forget a business needs earn money, we can say what we think they should be sold at, but we cannot by law demand they sell it at what we think. So, it’s always best to look at other websites, and please remember our cabins are high quality, so like for like pricing will be difficult, but there are a few companies out there that are the same nearly as ours and you can gauge if the pricing if fair or not.
I say this all the time, pay with a credit card………. It keeps you safe.
We have no claim or claims to our dealerships working practises, or who and what they do. We are not responsible for deposits they may take, and we are not responsible for broken doors, windows, or bad workmanship, fitted kitchens, bad fitted bathrooms etc, we however would like to be told this in writing so we can take the matter to the company concerned and ask them to help you with your concerns.
When we deliver a cabin to our resellers, they are the owner of that cabin, timber building etc, until they give it to you, you don’t even own it, once its delivered to you, you sign for it, but before you do, inspect it, you can refuse to sign for it if there is damage. The law is on your side, however if you have had a bespoke cabin made for you, and there are missing parts, or a broken door, you cannot return this, the company (reseller) has 28 days, or whatever his T and C’s say in which to fix your Log Cabin. We have some amazing resellers, and they will bend over to help you have that amazing cabin in your garden.
Here is a note to everyone, only buy a cabin if your job is secure, and you can afford it, as most cabins are bespoke manufactured for you, refunds are almost impossible. So please beware of this.
Please take note, please,please always ask if you can pay with a credit card.
This is a new cabin, seriously,,,,,,,, realllllllly seriously………
So what are we writing about today, what can i possibly write and it will seem to be completely different than anything else I have written in the past, I have said so many truths yet most of you do not know the difference between a timber frame house, or a Log cabin or a fucking post box painted Red, why don’t you just call me and ask what you need to known, i know all the scumbags in this industry and the good ones,I know the ones that in 2008 went bust and the ones who just go on holidays 6 times a year and actually have never even see your buildings, and know 0% about log cabins, in general. seriously, but there is hope yet, as I am becoming slowly but surely the Agony Aunt, and today i received some photos and a small cry for help, as the company these respectable, hard working British family bought their £9.000 cabin from in 44mm, were just completely fucked over , ( I swear, don’t like it go away)…so their money was taken and the company did a typical Baltic Runner. As from the 1st of January, Trading standards will no doubt shut them down, prosecute and fine this company.
Ok firstly, if something starts with the words Quick, it normally means trouble, remember what our grandparents told us, slowly, slowly catch yeah monkey, and that is in all things, And anyone thinks something racist about that, fuck off back from whence you came.
OK that bit cleared up, Quick and the wording Garden, spells to me one thing, leaking, bad, cheap, and crap and Debbie, her son Charlie and her family were told, informed that their cabin was the nuts, the bees knees, the cream of cabins, the best of the best and all that crap ….. They have informed trading standards, and they have also mentioned that this company loves using the wording Residential Friendly (( Hello everyone it means NOTHING )) You can put up build type, as it is a type style in build design, but you can not mention residential friendly, as that is implying it has U values, structural calculations and is winterized, which it is not..
So story goes something like
this…..
Grandmother dies, and leaves grandson money, grand son in his 20’s decides he will move out into the garden and give his mum and dad some peace, and also gives him time to romance his girlfriend as much as he likes behind his own curtains, in his cabin, he yard, his space, and he has wanted his own log cabin for a very long time, and had been going on the net looking for the quality and size he needed, so he sadly was taken in by all the crap and waffle most of the companies write, and he made a QUICK decision, he was looking for his space, and something he was going to pay for himself. A typical strong, fighting fit, English Boy, character and grit. But too trusting, if its cheap, quick and says garden its means CRAP!
So the cabin of his dreams arrived, he was told it was perfect to live in, it was put on a concrete base and off you go, the builders came in £1600 to build it, that in itself was a rip off, as a 44mm should have cost half that, but recession being , prices are high…
So Charlie, went out to see his finished cabin, and Quickly he became upset, when it rained and rained and rained, and then he realised that he was not just getting in water leaking in through the roof, and walls , yes walls, but also the floors and then the doors and windows leaked, and his heart was broken, his bed was wrecked, carpet, and belongings.
And guess what our
trading standards division in the UK, which is versed on this company are doing
nothing , why , because they have had funding pulled, and do not have the man
power to do anything, and even though this is a multi million pound fraud going
on each and every week, they are too blind and stupid to do anything or police
it.
So we police it, with my
blogs and other blogs that really know this industry.
I have put a lot of photos with this blog.
Just so you can see for yourself, never buy anything that has quick attached to the name..
Always pay with a credit card.
Remedy for this cabin, the doors and windows are absolute cheap rubbish, not fit for purpose, change them, please go to our page https://www.logcabinslv.co.uk/premium-windows-doors-gallery/, send us the sizes and colour you want them, and we will send them to you. Next the whole cabin you must varnish it in decking varnish for yachts. At least 3 coats. And a 44mm building is not a residential building, it’s not even building reg friendly….. it will be never ever fit to sleep in, ever… it is a glorified shed, nothing more. Actually some sheds, as they are timber framed are better, unless you buy a twinskin.
Second remedy, ask a local independent registered carpenter to come in and make a full assessment on the cabin, faults, windows and doors, etc, and them put that to trading standards, they will then send a summons to the company, if they do not pay, then, there is a Lithuanian institution , https://www.antstoliai.lt/vbp/public, and these people will take the money from the companies account immediately. It does not matter if it’s a UK resident or Lithuanian, you bought the cabin while being an EU citizen , which means they can not run from you. Assets or money will be taken from them, if a court rules against them.
If the Lithuanian court rules in their favour, you can then seize any goods coming into the “UK” country from this company and sell it till your settlement is upheld. And as they sell possibly 500 buildings a month into UK, and the trucking invoice will obviously confirm their company name, you have no problems in getting your money back quickly.
If I were you I would speak to them and tell them to take it back, and just refund you the full amount, to them its peanuts, but if they push this , they will loose, and they will then loose their check rate, complain to their bank and credit card company, and make them problems.
DOORS DO NOT EVEN ALIGN.
I am going to keep shut, you decide…..
Always remember that you must always have a correct drainaway,,,, mother nature is a bitch most of the time, so keep water away , completely away, from your log cabin, the log cabin should be off the floor, and that’s the first rule, there are many others, and that you should never buy a cheap cheap cheap log cabin, as it will come back to bite you in so many awful ways.
It’s really funny, we have been around since day one, yet, no one knows us, possibly because we have been the quiet supply to a the chain of disgusting greedy piggy dealerships that just got more and more greedy it was like a pandemic of mass proportion that was ill , sick and vile that swept the UK, and only money, profit and scams . So last year we put a complete stop to it, and kept just 3 dealers and got rid of the rest.
What’s really upsetting is that greed spoils good in everything, and greed has always been the downfall of most cabin log Dealers.
One comment i want to get clear from the start of this blog, we can be trusted with money, any amount, we had 70 dealerships that trusted us with your money each and every day, but we could not trust them to offer you a fair deal! ( please remember this) ……… it was not them that sacked us, it was us that sacked them!
Many years ago I was walking
through a small, empty warehouse, and I saw out of the corner of my eye a 3m x
3m corner, interlocking 28mm log cabin, and I knew then that this was my future
staring at me, covered in dust, doors hanging off, and boards full of holes and
the timber not particularly very good, but the design was perfect, obviously I had
to push the Mill, to manufacturer a better product, and it was quite difficult,
as the standards here in Lithuania as
they are now still, sadly quite low, so one must push and push and push, which
means you have to be around the product, people, and manufacturing areas 24./7
as the only person you can trust is yourself, and I never believe anyone when
they say “ don’t worry it’s going to be cool” I always found that nothing went
as planed and the quality was always slightly a miss, compared to what I wanted
and needed.
Every man and his dog has tried
to sell log cabins, and still they come, and it makes me laugh when they write
crap like, made in the UK, actually the timber is either Russian or Baltic, UK
does not have the timber quality needed to manufactured really seasoned log cabins.
So, I decided to put up some pics
of cabins that stretch back years and years, show you how we changed the
industry, and how we are still the only leading light in the industry.
So lets begin with some photos……..
A fantastic Clock House By https://www.factorycabins.co.uk/oc-range/This Old Design Building was in its day the best of the best https://www.factorycabins.co.uk/oc-range/Triple Clock House,,,,,, Built in 2005Our mission statement has always been quality, even from way back when https://www.factorycabins.co.uk/oc-range/The reason we put a lot of watermarks over our photographs and images is because companies like Skinners sheds and other companies just steal our images, or photos and add them to their websites. Because of their lack of imagination, and also not being able to pay for a proper graphic designer or just laziness, which ever, who knows , so sadly we must protect ourselves by adding these watermarks over our products. (( sorry))The first ever 5m x 5m 45mm log cabin ( ever) with veranda and and and. But this is the first ever manufactured. I am so proud we did and are doing so much for the garden market, unknown hero’s that have just changed that market space into something amazing. This was my design, and it has been copied like the clock house of the twinskin system, by the rest, We call them the sheep. They just follow, and make a lot of mess behind them. https://www.factorycabins.co.uk/https-www-factorycabins-co-uk-country-range-2/Remember this was over 15 years ago, way before tilt and turn windows and joinery glulam timber for windows and doors, yet we made amazing cabins even then. And the prices, this is before the greedy little bastard Dealerships got hold of them, we sold this for about 1200 euros ex works, they sold it for 3500 pounds. Plus plus plus plus. I use to get upset, but the dealers would always say, no Britt is going to buy a Log Cabin from you direct, they don’t trust you, your in Lithuania, my answer now is, the credit card companies do not trust you now the dealers, that why you all have huge deposits on your credit card machines so many Dealerships in 2008, went bust, and just ran with all the deposits they could get their hands on. I was actually shocked, as we lost a huge sums to dealers. Which is one reason now we got rid of all of them nearly except 3.https://www.factorycabins.co.uk/https-www-factorycabins-co-uk-country-range-2/Yes this is our design, and yes we were the first to make a double clock house, Clock houses used to be massive sellers, Until the government came in with new rules of 2.5 and and and. Some of our first twinskin designs, you can tell by the age of the image.This was one of my first miniature house designs in twin skin, we manufactured a few but as i said the government put a stop on them before they could become popular, this was back in 2002 and housing was a problem, actually its always been a problem. Double garage with an office upstairs, under 4m, we actually manufactured many of these for our Dealers.This I called the Chapel, I designed it because Dunster House as always were saying they manufactured the tallest, widest door etc, so we shut them up, this door was about 2m wide and 2.3 m high, making it the biggest, cabin door to be fitted to a cabin ever. https://www.factorycabins.co.uk/https-www-factorycabins-co-uk-country-range-2/ This is from our standard range…… as always, made by us, and sold by some dealer who claimed to be the designer and the manufacturer, both were lies, and the price for this was always triple what we sold it to the dealer for. So glad we got rid of dealers.This brings back so many happy memories, one of our first ever clock houses, and check out the timber, perfect…… The design has been refurbished, but the quality of the cut, and the roof and and , amazing.I remember this one, we sold it to Hortons, stopped dealing with him years ago, long story, but as always for him it did not end well! Never fall out with your supplier.I think Daryl, one of our old dealers bought this one, and sold it to someone, did a good job on the decking, and assembly. But the final price to the customer was too high! bye Daryl.This is one of the very first clock houses, so this would be 2002/2003Clock House with ShedTHE FIRST ONE EVER MADE!NOW WE ARE JUMPING FROM 2003 TO 2018 AND THE NEW CLOCK HOUSE, WITH TILT AND TURN DOUBLE GLAZED WINDOWS AND DOORS, AND PURLINS THAT SIT AT 90 DEGREES IN THE APEX.This one i remember, we sold it to Peter, in Devon, lovely guy, he did an amazing job putting it up…A twinskin log cabin in ( 2003) way before anyone even knew what a twin skin was, they have now all copied it, but the true masters of this design and manufacturing process are us 100%.It’s strange when people ask us, “who are you”, and i just laugh and say, ( we are the creators) and we are here to stay, and we have also as you can see have the man power, skill and the aptitude to design, and create the best of the best cabins.This is the first ever 5m x 5m twinskin garden office designed by yours truly, and came onto the market in about 2006. Its sold and sold and sold, then every back street mill and shed company asked their manufacturers for it, and so the twinskin was copied by all. Must laugh, as none have made a good copy, the ones i have seen are kind of a bodge, rather like Arch Leisure’s Pods, they look the part but are actually rubbish, completely and utterly. No one makes a frame which must have strength from OSB. No One! I have seen these CNC machines for sale in the UK which you feed OSB board into and it cuts out pod frames, seriously, what the F…K… and then they ask £28.000 for it. Seriously. To everyone who wants a pod from Factory Cabins, we are not cheap, we do not manufacture rubbish, our pods are built to last, they are not anything like Arch Leisures or any other in the UK, so please if you are looking for just quality, longevity then ask us, as we are the Best manufacturers of Pods in the market place,
OK imagine, I sit for hours and hours and i try after designing over 7000 buildings for the UK garden market, to come up with something new and interesting, my time and energy, plus not forgetting my money, to create something amazing. For You!
So I design a whole new range of garden offices, not because they are the best, or that i am the best designer, ( I am with without doubt ) , and that every one, and i mean everyone copies exactly what i do, ( the clock house) the ( The Interlocking Twin Skin).
Skinners Sheds whos webdesigner “decides” or is told to steal our images from our website and then gives our design to his very bad manufacturer who has a bad name for one going broke and running away and not paying for his timber and other things, and two is known in the industry for having lots of missing parts, skinners uses this mill to copy our designs, the mill supply awfully cheap windows and doors, are known for late deliveries and also this mill uses Baltic timber, which as we all know is fast grown rubbish! Forgetting all of that, for a moment;;;;
Dunster, and his discounts which he does every month, and actually 90% of the Piggy Dealerships sadly do the same. they all shout buy now as prices rising etc, , by the way timber has not gone up, so anyone who says it has, well they are truly mistaken and really do know anything, as I sit here in the forests, i sell timber, buy it, cut it and export it, SO I DO as i sell 40000 m3 a month) ,
so what is the the truth?
The truth is timber is just being withheld from you, you see , if you call President Vladimir Putin a Russians Fuc..g Bastard, and the Belarusians leader President Viktor Lukashenko a dictator and all the names under the sun, do not expect the next day for them both to say, arr poor UK here’s some cheap timer. because like gas, oil and other stuff you don’t have a lot of and especially””” timber””””, which the UK has very little of, and you are still cutting your Oaks, you do know it’s bad luck to cut Oak, ”’any way I digress, sorry “expect from both Russia and Belarus some very fancy, and beautifully, eloquently said swear words in Russian said to the UK, and everything to do with timber changes and you now can expect low grade timber, as you see I show cased in Arch Lesures Pods, article, CRAP! photos below in case you forgot. or missed that blog…
( Remember this, Russia helps the UK in so many ways, culture, and Timber for Housing, money and also Russia shows us again, how to stand on our feet and be independent). We have followed to long idiots. I personally have decided to stop following and start to stop the degrading nature of a business,I personally started 20 odd years ago, Log Cabins. Time to go back to the beginning, and reprice it all again. This time without the likes of Dunster House, Skinners, Johnsons, and, Garden Buildings Direct, and the rest, …… Lets see them all drop their pricing to mine. lol…. that will be the day)
Arch Leisure and his amazing timber, what a pile of crap,Seriously……………….. Keep going down for photos.
Fu..ing Disgusting. Like all Dealerships he does not care, and he knows nothing about timber.
Those knots are black…….. SOME INFO KEITH REGARDING YOUR CLADDING……
These knots are often black and may contain bark or pitch pockets separating the dead-limb wood from the living stem wood. Such black knots are more formally known as encased knots. . knots are typically considered to be undesirable defects in wood
So Mr Arch Lesure, you paneling inside your new and amazing crap pods are lined out with defective timber……… As always we like to help ( The Public)
Seriously, this is what the UK has come to, home grown, backstreet mills, buying defective timber, and manufacturing and selling BADLY MANUFACTURED COPIES OF OUR products for £1000’s more, with CRAP timber.
Sorry keith…. Must say,,, Brit to a Brit, selling this rubbish to other Brits, is dispicable.
THESE PODS ARE A JOKE,,,,, THAT’S ALL I AM SAYING……
NEXT
Next, when, and i mean WHEN did cabins not have floors???????????? I have never sold a cabin without a floor, and a 28mm floor as standard. what is this about??? seriously???
And I love this next bit…. Please everyone, pic one of our cabins, say any DF log cabin, call us, we will give u a quote, delivered to your home. and Trust me this is going to hurt Dunster.
How do you break the Dealerships, easy, play them at their own greedy game, so Dunster House Log Cabins have said 10% from any quote you get to a similar log cabin, well our cabins are 100% better, in every way, and cheaper, in every way, and we want you to go to them with our quote and get them to give you 10% off that! you win, win , win, because price promise is a price promise. And a 4m x 5m log cabin with a roof and a floor is as near as you need to be. if we are offering better, windows, and better thicker flooring for less, they must adhere to their price promise. so if our cabin is £2000 cheaper they must add their 10% to that! so that’s £2200. I love price promises, because in the end they backfire.
OK next, have not forgotten Skinner Sheds, OH NO!
It was £11.190.00, wow, that’s absolutely amazing, cheap, eh! Now discounted From, I love From, means nothing, but let’s keep him at his word, from, what ever, £9.190.00, that’s £1910, pounds off, seems a lot , wow, well done boys, for selling my designed cabin so cheap, and discounted. Always check 70mm timber from the Baltics for splits, if it is not treated almost instantly, baltic 70mm will split terribly. TERRIBLY………
But let’s look at the real cost of that cabin from us here at the Mill.
Yep our price is as you can expect is a lot cheaper.
Why? because we manufacturer it, and why are we so much cheaper, because we are not greedy. Shout out to all dealers, stop selling 19mm floor and 19mm roof, shows to the public your a bulk mill manufacturer, rather like condoms, millions, manufactured and only good once, then, throw it away! Dealers are greedy and that’s why Mr and Mrs Public Factory Cabins is here to stop you (1) getting ripped off) (2) getting lower prices, (3) getting the best quality, (4) great customer service ( 5) Full turn Key Service. yep also you can pay us with a credit card, and we will be offering also finance.
OH.. forgot to mention… Skinners, 70mm we are £ 2596 Cheaper ex works. And remember this, our quality is 100% better, we do not have missing logs, and if that cabin ever was 11.190, then, it would have meant we were £4596 ex works cheaper. That’s an insane amount! the cabin seems big, but its not, it’s only 31.5 sq m , 6 windows and a double door. and they wanted £11.190. Seriously! oh, with some free shingles that are of questionable quality for that roof which really needs honestly an EPDM covering for it to be efficient. Anyway, we are here to stay, please check out our new and very exciting range The Standard Range coming soon, 102 buildings, that should keep skinners thief web designer busy enough to take off our water marks and offer another of our ranges.
To all you out there that we care about, ditch the dealers and come direct, why pay a guy £2000+ to make a call and just buy a cabin from us?
And!!!!!!! Seriously , i do not understand why you all waste your money on Backstreet Dealerships who are as you can see just ripping you off when purchasing a cabins.
Can anyone explain why you all beat each other up for toilet rolls…… Has England gone mad, because you throw your money away and pay double for cabins , and kill each other for bog paper…
For many years Log Cabins LV, has been supplying the trade, dealerships, with the best of the best Log Cabins, Certified Glulam GL Class Residential Cabins, be it a School, House, or Village Hall, all of which came to Building Regulations, We have designed over 300 different kinds of camping Pods, over 7000 different log cabins sizes range from 3m x 3m to a full 500 sq meter house, and we also offer Fully Insulated Timber Frame Buildings all the way up to Passive Standards, we have been very much in the background, and sadly we have allowed a lot of Dealerships to sell our cabins under their own brand, as you will notice on Log Cabins LV and Factory Cabins we offer an extensive Blog, this blog goes back to 2013, and on youtube, channel, our videos go back to 2005, and if you really hunt, you will find that before LV we were Sourcingtimber, we have been the most aggressive of all design teams in this market, and everyone has copied us, we designed the Clock House, twinskin interlocking system, we manufactured the first Garden Office, and we have actually changed the face of the UK gardens that is forever lasting. Factory Cabins has been in the coming for years.
Our first dealerships were targeted at some large and very well known companies that are still cheating their customers daily, if i sound angry, I am because what we manufacturer and sell for and what the Dealerships sell at, I would say there are thousands and thousands of pounds difference, which is putting it mildly. And this annoys me as its not profit its theft, and greed.
So what I did was sit back and wait for 10 years, and let the shed companies, the new cabin manufacturers come in, and flood the market, and let them build up their dealerships, and basically take an obscure product I introduced into the market some 21 years ago, and they made it know to all. And as they were doing this job for me they were also getting greedier and greedier, and prices went up and up and up.
And now we have a lot of absolutely shit cabins on the market, and i mean shit, sold at unbelievable pricing, and because sadly none of you know a decent cabin from a bad one, you believe every word you are told, and everything they write on there Perjurers websites, with stolen images from our sites, (Skinners sheds) all of them with the Clock House Design, all of them with the Twinskin Design and so on. On this blog loads of companies are listed who are just completely crooks and Charlatans who know zero about cabins, steal content from us, and sell to you then run off with your deposit, and now we are heading into a depression, and Brexit, which means you do not need a vat to buy a cabin from us anymore from the 1st of Jan, we have now decided it’s time to cut the feet of all the crooked , disgusting thieves, and sell direct. And none of them have a leg to stand on, our twin skins are cheaper than there single skins, and their add ons, are a joke.
On the first of January, trading standards are going to get a letter from us, on that letter will be the lies and deceit written on so many websites and those that con people from their hard earned money and those that falsely claim that their cabins are this that and the other.
Lithuanians, Latvians, Estonians, Polish, Romanians and disgustingly the British have for too long believed that they can write whatever they want on a website, and soft touch UK will bear the brunt of that lie by simply doing nothing, well, if any of you know English Law it is seriously harsh and unforgiving, so many of you have forgotten what it was like to be ENGLISH, that day is coming Jan 1st 2021 , and we then can throw off the shackles of the European Union’s rules and regulations which are i must say are for the soft and for the lighter touch people in life. And jump hard and aggressively on those that think they can lie and decieve.
What is building reg friendly mean, sorry, i know its on a log cabin British website, which is owned by a EU company, To those that write this,,,,,,, a word of warning,,,,,, The Brits run Britain, and unlike what you may think, saying (building reg friendly) means ”’ZERO”’ the cabin must pass must pass structural calculations, and finger jointed beams, and stuff like that, would not pass structural calcs, not in any way shape or form, no grade mark (( understand))) , which means what you have written is an absolute LIE! There are no cabin with grade marks for strength, durability , zero, nothing, . There are now a few of us that believe the UK is being flooded with Rubbish, dangerous, and we are going to make a forum of which companies lie, and if you know the UK law, not European as that has no standing, once we make a formal complaint, your site will be turned off by trading standards, and infringements will be fined, the days of telling huge lies to the British Public about how good your cabins are when in fact they are absolute crap, is over!!! Here is one thing to think about…. this is one from 2400 items, you must pass to even use the work Residential, never mind about a bit of insulation.
So when you use the Residential, Residential, stop trying to cheat our old people into thinking your rubbish is anything like their house, or a park home, all you have done is beefed up the walls of your garden cabin, with a 44 mm x 44 mm and added a bit of insulation, it is a garden building, nothing more, so stop telling lies.
Here’s just a little of the hoops one must jump through to get your cabin, 80mm graded glulam twin skin with a huge amount of insulation, with a waterproof membrane, and then dovetailed into the inner skin, so there is no cold bridging, I know because i have made more than one and mine even had to pass all ofsted rules and regs!
I hate to brag, but this is how you manufacturer a twinskin for building regulations, and as you can see there are grade marks everywhere, it was 2 x 80mm x 80mm GL Graded glulam School. 6.8m x 18m . All the beams sit at 90 degree, not 45, and also they are graded, and everything is manufactured from C24, which is then cut up and made to be a Engineered log.
Do not be fooled with pretty pictures on the web, 90% of the crap they write is crap! and their prices are ludicrous. Factory Cabins, is now Number 1 for pricing and honesty as well as offering the right product.
Have a read of some of these rules and then think, what 99.9999% of the cabin companies are offering, and none of what’s written below applies to them.
Lastly, any manufacturer telling you they know about cabins, ask them this one question, it’s an easy one, WHY ARE YOU SO EXPENSIVE COMPARED TO FACTORY CABINS. We use 19mm roof boards, 28 flooring in all our cabins , as standard, we would never use in a factory cabin a 20mm floor board.
Ask them why they are sooo sooo sooo expensive… and their level of quality is so poor!
My amazing Clock House 4.8m x 3.6m is possibly one of the most sold log cabins in the industry, comes in so many different sizes now, but tonight let’s talk about this amazing , wonderful, aesthetic design, and how i Kevin Langham designed this cabin, and 7000 others and put it to my dealerships throughout europe and the UK, and how it has changed from being a super, quality log cabin , to the pile of shit that is now sold to you the customer, it has been butchered by every company, no strength in the roof, no quality of build and absolutely not worth 1/3 of what any company is asking for them from you. I have seem my cabins butchered by everyone, there is no pride left in this industry, it’s all about demand and bulk.
And you the public are driving this madness by demanding them now , now , now.
And what you buy is last years stock, that’s had 10 buildings packed on top of yours, that are old, that are quickly and cheaply manufactured, AND REALLLLLLLLY OVER PRICED!!!
And if a company is telling you to wait 12 weeks, they are getting ready to go bust and steal your deposits. In 2008 they all did the same, and i will never forget how many people called us and asked us where the dealerships had gone with their deposits. that’s why this time round we have got rid of all the dealers, you just never know who can be trusted and who you can not!
This is the first ever Clock House Log Cabin, it was designed by an elderly Royal Marines officer. We assembled this beautiful building in his garden and decorated it with a pot belly stove, and some very comfortable seating, table etc, and it was his personal little cute hide away.
He sent me the design and I had a very long look at it, and i thought, amazing, and that it would sell well, but the problem with it was, the amount of light was miserable, it was dark, way too dark, it felt claustrophobic, and the dorma looked too big. We built his and then, I sat down and thought.
So I sat down and figured out over about 3 months what would be the best size and how to manufacture this cabin making sure it was ethically viable for the amount of timber to be used, to use the off cuts and and and, and i came up with 5.5m x 4m where 4 windows fitted on the front, with a tall double door and two windows left and right. all tilt and turn. Double glazed.
And here is a pic of the first one…
And here you are, the first , ever, ever, ever 5.5 m x 4.0m and I still think apart from my sunshine range, this is one of the best log cabins ever designed. it fits all purposes. And I amproud to stamp my name to it.
Some one asked me the other day who am I!
Easy I am the start, I am the middle my sons, son, son will possibly be the next Langham, to design more and more buildings from materials we have not even invented yet, but trust me when I say the Langham name is the name that brought Log Cabins to the UK, not garden buildings Direct, Waltons, Dunster House or any of the said mentioned, it was Kevin Langham, and I was too stupid to understand that i should have sold them direct to the customers and not to dealers, who have over the last 21 years upped the prices, lowered the quality and completely destroyed the ethos of what i started, I had someone ask me who I was, and i said I had designed a few buildings, what i wanted to say was, without me 99.9 % of designs on most websites of cabins would not be around, ( like clock house) ……. and also who invented the twinskin system, yes ME!
The twinskin interlocking building system came to me when i saw a skilled craftsman put two walls together , one cabin inside another, and use spacers, and then add insulation, i then had an Eureka moment, and I went to our production production master, and told him what i wanted to do, everyone thought i was crazy, honestly, bat sh-t mad! But i pushed on and now 30% of all cabins are twin skin, thanks to a Langham!
Skinners Sheds 70mm £8.250….is this company really serious, is everyone in Sussex on coke! Time to wake up, buy direct…….. I hate greed and i know you all do! No one can hide from us, we are about to rip this industry to bits, and show the corruption and over pricing. It’s bye bye Dealerships.
OUR CABIN in 44mm, OUR DESIGN, OUR IMAGES, OUR SALE, £3492, EX WORKS LT……….
Russian Siberian Pine…….
Now our 70mm price, insane EX WORKS LT £ 4478…… insane…. Now let’s show skinners where they go really wrong… Really , Really wrong!!!!!
Imagine, Skinners Sheds, offers its 44mm Log Cabin for £6.590…., imagine, single skin… we kill that with our twin skin, wake up everyone, Dealerships is the old way, buying Direct is the new way for 2020, and onwards.
WE OFFER OUR TWIN SKIN, THAT’S 44mm X 44mm TWINSKIN DOUBLE GLAZED LOGCABIN WHICH IS JUST THE BEST OF THE BEST THAT CAN BE FOR ALL YEAR ROUND, AND IT COSTS LESS THAN SKINNERS SINGLE SKIN CABIN, THAT’S LET NOT FORGET A COPY OF OUR HARD WORK. AND STEALING OUR CONTENT AND DESIGN
Ex works is easy and the new way to buy your log cabin..
WHY BUY A COPY WHEN YOU CAN BUY DIRECT FROM THE FACTORY. AND SAVE ££££££££££££
STARTING TO GET THE IDEA?? SO SKINNERS IMMEDIATELY STEAL FROM OUR WEBSITE, REMOVE OUR WATERMARKING, NOT TOO WELL, BUT NONETHELESS SKINNERS STEALS OUR RANGE ( IMAGES) AND PUTS THEM UP. SO LET’S HAVE A LOOK AT OURS FIRST.
What annoys me more than anything is that we put this company on the map, we helped him in so many different ways, we supplied him with the best buildings and also content for his website, yet, he decided to go to a cheaper mill, copy our building designs, and then after we have finished working with Skinners Sheds for almost 2 years, he still thinks its correct, to steal from our New Designs, and then adds them to his site, and then charges you a fortune, Log Cabins LV and also Factory Cabins has absolutely nothing to do with Skinners Sheds. Now or ever in the future. Ex works is here now to stay, and Greedy Piggy Dealers are gone!
YEP That’s right, 44mm £6732, EX Works. So if you have a Vat Number, thats your price ex works for that amazing 11.0m x 4.5m log cabin directly from the Mill, . Now lets see what Skinners are selling our cabin at..
So Skinner Sheds are charging a massive £4058 more…..in 44mm, than us for our cabin, they seem to be an awful clever crew, now let’s look how really greedy this company is, let’s look at their 70mm.
Our 70mm is £8700 ex works, Skinners Sheds is 14.000, thats a whooping £5300 difference…
Our Garden Office Twin Skin DF1509 11.0m x 4.5m with a 100mm gap for all the wires and insulation etc, comes with double glazing, double roof , double walls etc, and the cost, ready, this is a cabin with a wall thickness of 188mm, sturdy and amazing for winter or summer, rain and snow, the perfect, Office , price ex works from us, a crazy £10.644 ex works, it’s a mad price, and it’s actually £3356 cheaper than my DF 1509 11.0m x 4.5m office Skinners ” stole our image of” in 70mm. So if your thinking of going to Skinners Sheds to buy a copied LV design,log cabin, think , once, think twice think NAW,,,,, come to Factory Cabins. At least you know what your purchasing is original and made by the guys that designed it, not some bad copy!
Imagine, all the Lithuanian Manufacturers and Latvian, Polish and Estonian must pander to the needs of their dealerships, they are once again held captive to the Bully Boys of Europe, Well, we are not, we told our dealers, or 99.9% of them, the greedy ones to thats thats that, and not to put any more order in for our cabins, as you can see why, their pricing is disgusting, and their profit margin is from your pockets, our Ethos ,in the Baltics is not to Rip thy neighbor Off. But sadly that was told to our dealers numerous times, keep pricing low.
No one listened, so here we go, no dealers, more sales, and no one is moaning. We were using a UK company to help us at the beginning, but we realised that no one will settle for 10%, they want 50%-90%, the greed in the UK with in this industry is huge. Rampant.
This is one of the images skinners sheds stole and took off our website and altered. Now ask yourself this one question, can this company or man be trusted??? Is this what a decent, honest business does? I think we all know the answer to that!
Dear Mr and Mrs Public, decency and honesty has been lost in this trade for years, and there’s actually no Policing of this industry at all. NONE! That’s why, companies are allowed to sell like this Dunster House cabin a 5m x 4m in 28mm, Severn, with free flooring, what the hell is free flooring, ( cabins come with floors) when was having a floor “an optional thing”, they are not doing you a favour they are upping the price, “up selling”….but the Murphys have always been about making the most out of their low end mass produced cabins, by cutting down the quality and upping the price.
I have invoices to prove this by the way, we were the first to start them going, but we fell out as i would not cut quality, and they did not want to pay for childrens play houses,and as always dunster then said, take us to court, or take what we offer. That was their last truck, and their last truck of quality. Now they sell rubbish, they are actually the bottom of the ladder in quality, but when you add up all the extras they are super expensive,
DUNSTER HOUSE HOW CAN YOU EVER SELL A CABIN THAT IS 20 SQ METERS WITH A WALL BOARD 28MM THICK . 28 IS A FLOOR BOARD, 28 MM IS GREAT FOR FLOORING , BUT AS A INTEGRAL PART OF STRENGTH WHICH WE ALL KNOW HAS NO PROPERTIES AND IS NOT SUITABLE TO BUILD A CABIN FROM. PLEASE SHOW US THE PUBLIC DUNSTER HOUSE THE STRUCTURAL CALCULATIONS DONE ON THAT CABIN THAT A 5M X 4M IN 28MM UNGRADED TIMBER IS SUITABLE FOR ALL WIND, RAIN CONDITIONS IN THE UK THAT INCLUDES SCOTLAND, NORTHERN IRELAND AND ALL OF WALES ESPECIALLY NORTH WALES ETC.
I understand that log cabins do not have building regulations attached to them, if they are under 30 sq meters and meet permitted building regulations, for this under 2.5, and 4m etc.
But common sense must prevail, and in a case of a 5m x 4m cabin in 28mm, there is no common sense their! NONE……. It’s just greed!
OK Talking about add ons, check this one out…. talk about ripping you off……
All our prices are ex works, which means no Vat or shipping, as from the 1st of January 2021 it won’t matter about VAT, there won’t be any to pay this end, only yours on entry, and that puts paid to massive stock on the ground, as 70% of cabins are bespoked.
Next Glulam Timber, if someone tells you they use Glulam logs, you must ask them to provide you with a certificate that the glue used in any part of the building is non toxic, also that the minimum length of log which the glulam board, log was constructed from, for your cabin walls or purlins , what ever, is more than one or one and a half meters, if it is made from small bits of timber, it’s not glulam, it’s called finger jointed, and it’s made from off cuts, so it is not a structural certified log with certification.
The certificates you will need to ask for if they say that it’s glulam this and glulam that, as most of the times they lie:
A glulam Log must be manufactured to GL24 (BS11), GL28 (BS14) and GL32 (BS16) in accordance with DIN and EN norms. so if your guy says , glulam , you say prove it.
if they can not provide these, then they are lying. And it’s not glulam. It means they are selling you walls made from offcuts and not C24 and above graded timber. I am glad we got that sorted out. Please remember this.
The KI range has been copied by all, and even the images have been stolen from our website, and other manufacturers have copied our unique design. this is not a shock to us companies with absolutely no integrity, along with the dealerships just want t earn, and where they get the design or how they manufacture it does not matter to them.
So as you can see this cabin is stolen from our site, and as you can see the price for this cabin is disgustingly high, and please believe me as the designer of this cabin, roof, its a hard cabin to manufacture, the gable ends must match 100% ( Curved apexes).
Our Design, Our Images, And over priced.
Then there is ours in 44mm, but you must remember we designed this cabin that happened over many months and we paid a skilled guy to sit for hours daily,actually monthly and years, we have done this, and some back street shed manufacturer thinks its ok to steal our designs.
Pity he does not buy from a good manufacturer or that his prices match ours.
And to top it off, here we go……
His 70 mm is £6190, seriously, not surprised he earned 11.000.000 last year!
Our 70mm ex works is……£ 3648, even with vat and transport, we are still over 1000 cheaper. if you pay us the Vat, but if you buy it with a VAT number ex works you are £2542 in pocket.
But it gets better. Ready…… they are little cabins , and the differences are small, i think £500 notes is a lot, but then I am still in touch with reality.
Check out this bad boy, this is his price for this cabin in 70mm, yep, 70mm, He buys from Ultimate Log Cabins, who sells to a lot of people, like https://www.morrowsectionalbuildings.com/ ,,,, https://logcabinsnorthernireland.com/,,,,,,,,, and the like, if you go on these sites you will see that even they have stolen our designs, images and photos, even our beloved Aurora Clock House, But what can you do, UK government is the most powerless government in the world, i even think behind somewhere like Chad! So theft, and criminal deeds be them stealing your deposits and going bust and then being allowed to keep the websites, like Trevor Watson did with Beaver log cabins in Ireland, or Geoff Morrow stealing my images and putting them all over his website because he thinks he is untouchable, he is not. he is a thief as like the rest. And now name and shame. Going to shame them all.
So Brian… ,,,,, SouthWest…. £11.783 for a 70mm 7m x 4m……. is someone on some hard core scrumpy, as i hear cider makes you mind do weird and wonderful stupid idiotic things, and in that area of the world it’s the favourite tipple I hear.
NOW OURS IN 70MM
70mm Log Cabins OC Range – 7.0 m x 4.0m Clockhouse Dorset 7004 is only, £5172 EX WORKS LT…….. The Best Double Glazed Log Cabins on the market, hard wearing 28mm floor, and a solid 19mm roof as always from FC A standard! Quality Windows and Doors !!!! SO PLEASE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY THIS IS EX WORKS £6611 CHEAPER, IF WE ADD OUR VAT THE CABIN IS ONLY EX MILL £6258, HELLLOOOOOO IS SOMEONE BEING REALLY FUCKING GREEDY!!
That’s enough,,,, time for a cuppa,,, and also time for you all to ponder who is a crook! and why FactoryCabins.co.uk is number one…………..
OK that out the way….. Like for like, well this is a problem, because none of the cabins are even like ours, none, they are all lesser quality or higher priced , some by £500 and others by £6000 and more. they are all the same sizes, but the quality, well, that’s for you to determine.
OK,,,, Lets start off in a way that i think is fair, because I know this blog is going to upset the whole industry, completely, as most of them have egos higher than the empire state building, and they earn a lot of money and of course will not want to lose their lifestyle. Like speed boats, 5 Holidays a year, sports cars, and millions of pound in proffit.
The industry in Total (UK), sheds and Cabins has a net worth of 7.7 Billion, and in that market we have holiday log cabins ( most are 80mm glulam crap) worthless after 15 years, why? simple they are not built to any form of building regulation, and other forms of buildings, its a lucrative business to be in, and to think I started it personally.
So I have been doing this many years and in this time i have seen the market grow and grow, and prices rise and rise, and the quality in some companies get better and better, and in others, the quality is disgusting, and some have the most amazingly bad reviews, that they pay £1000’s and £1000’s to their full time web guys to get rid of bad reviews by just adding more and more false ones on top. also….. the pricing, its utter madness, absolute greed, and because of that, i have decided alone, because i know that I am the only Manufacturer/Designer, to drop prices and offer the public the ability to buy direct and cut out the middle man.
We saw this cabins….. now check out what they offer, for the price. and they say they will erect it. We asked an independent qualified Fitter how much to assemble this in 44mm, he said without covering the roof about £800.. this cabin is 5.9m x 3.0m… I love the word from??? From what? Our twinskin ex works is nearly half the cost of this single skin!

I am not going to shout about price difference, not yet, as the main compare site is coming and then this industry is going to have a major fucking heart attack, and all the guys and girls that have been super greedy for so long will understand whats its like being a normal hard working person, earning and saving …. bye bye… Dealerships…..
OK, we all search for a company that we truly believe understands their product and knows what their doing, we want to believe that the guy we are speaking to has the ( Minerals) the midas touch, and he knows more than you about his products and i can help you etc. But when a company is selling and advertising using another manufacturer products to sell his lesser quality wares, it makes you wonder if you can truly trust the seller, it brings to mind, look at this Rolex in the box, and not the one i got from China in my pocket. And sadly Mr Keith from Arch Leisure is doing that, he is using my quality camping pods, and then he sadly gives you crap instead , and i challenge him any day to bring one of his awfully built pods to our Factory, and let’s see how much weight the roof can hold, what’s it like in sub zero conditions and what awful sub quality timber is he using, because i do not see anywhere on his website, FSC Chain of custody, or for that matter anything resembling C24 timber.
We parted company with this company last year,and what he is displaying on google is not what he now manufacturers but we had manufactured for him in the past, and there is a reason for this, what he is now selling is ( well what i have just said means there is a problem if you have to show off someone else’s product and not your own…..) Would you trust this guy? His company? Does he run away from problems, is he there when your pods are delivered? Does he actually understand the concept of Podding, and the ethos behind it, or is he just a salesman trying to earn money from any product, and then gone.
If you’re looking for a camping pod, and want to buy direct, not from some guy who never leaves his house other than to go on holiday in Dubai , and trust me Ryan Air does not fly there for £230 return!
Very soon on FactoryCabins.co.uk we will be offering camping pods at ex work prices we are now getting rid of our pod dealers as we did our cabin sellers, and we will be putting up Factory Pricing.
If you really want the best of the best, then stop looking in the UK for Pods, you do not have forests, you do not have quality pods, you never will have, we have the best of the best timber, we also have huge glulam beam lines that can manufacture subframes for the pods that no one in the UK can, plus, we offer better pricing and quality.
“Buy British” I am all for that, but without Russian timber, your housing market would come to a halt. And I mean it would stop. Sadly the UK public are fed crap by the media, and trust me when i say we do as much bad when it comes to spying and killing people as the Russian, Americans etc.
We are not saints in any way, we are lied to so many times a day by our government, it makes me laugh, go home, don’t go home, stay in dooors, go to the pub, wear masks, don’t wear masks, and please tell me, Toilet paper? What the F—–k is all that about, I am English and i just laugh, i think my race has turned into sheep………. We allow every soft stupid , daft dick tell us what to do, we have schools open when they should be shut, and all the money should be spent on finding a cure, that’s it. And now we have a recession which is coming this recession is like a huge fucking dark, powerful wave that will rip through ever family and company around the world, the price of gold is nearly 2000 an ounce, it could go as high as 3000 or 4000 as some predict, and holidays at home will become the largest market in the UK, yet in Jan 1 you leave the EU and tariffs on your timber will completely ( kill your home grown industry of manufacturing) thats happening already as most shed companies and timber companies have shortages, and this will get more common, as why should we supply you with products that you turn into a product that then your businesses sell for 5 times its actual value.
I do not like greedy people, and now your pants are down, and you can not manufacturer a product if you do not have the material to manufacture it.
You should have been planting years ago, yet you tarmaced everything and built high rise buildings, destroyed your green belt and just messed up the country completely, and because you were under the thumb of Germany for so many years you lost yourself in immigrants and laws. Now 1st January 2021 England becomes England, and a lot that went around will go around. But you still don’t have timber. NONE!
Which is why all the best Camping Pods come from us. that’s fact.
And one last fact, we manufacture Schools, Houses, Large Log Cabins , Camping Pods etc, we also have our own glulam production line , we have so many CNC machines it would take a day to list each one, and our buildings are 10/10, we are also not going to go bust. In 2008 so many unlucky, poor people were ( f—–ed) over by backstreet middle men and the large companies, ( none can be trusted, your laws allow them to steal and there is no come back) that actually just bought and sold on, who took deposits, and did not give them to their supplier but kept them, and i am talking about 5 of your biggest log cabin companies in the UK to date, that did this, and ended up owing us huge amounts of money, and customers and banks, and they went bust with a smile and a ” we will be back in a few months once we have restructured, that means gone on holiday with their customers deposits , had a great time and then came back when the threatening emails stopped and the people had stopped throwing bricks through their office windows , and with in a week they had a new managing director, the deposits were gone, customers lost their money and the company carried on as nothing had happened because the websites were allowed to be used by the new managing director, and we over here, now understand and learned from 2008 that the UK is the most corrupt country in Europe for business, in Russia you can and will go to jail, same as Lithuania and Latvia and Estonia, Finland, Sweden if you knowingly just took deposits to keep them, but the UK, lol, never, , and we will not put up with it. so goodbye dealerships. If your government will not protect you, then we will. this is my industry i started off the Likes of Dunster House, Skinners, and so many companies that now sell huge volumes of cabins, and who will will not sell to anymore.
The UK is now sadly now the poor man of Europe, and no one trusts him, your printing money with out anything to back it up thanks to Gordon Brown.
Between 1999 and 2002 the Treasury sold 401 tonnes of gold – out of its 715-tonne holding – at an average price of $275 an ounce, generating about $3.5bn during the period.
Gold now is trading at nearly £2000 an ounce, the man was is as stupid as the day he was born.
There are so many reasons not to purchase from a UK company at the moment, and the word you are looking at is uncertainty. We were here from the beginning, we have the timber, we don’t have depts, we can survive whatever the markets throw at us because we have what you all need, timber. So we are actually the only ones to trust.
Log cabins LV thanks you for reading this blog so does Factory Cabins.
Regarding purchasing Cabins, Timber Buildings or any item from Self Employed Dealers. Resellers, who sell our LV or FC brand, if you went to the Self Employed Dealers, reseller, first, please do not come to us, if you have a question, concerns please call us, but as they are resellers, we are unable to do anything legally to them regarding their prices , Please remember and do not forget a business needs earn money, we can say what we think they should be sold at, but we cannot by law demand they sell it at what we think. So, it’s always best to look at other websites, and please remember our cabins are high quality, so like for like pricing will be difficult, but there are a few companies out there that are the same nearly as ours and you can gauge if the pricing if fair or not.
I say this all the time, pay with a credit card………. It keeps you safe.
We have no claim or claims to our dealerships working practises, or who and what they do. We are not responsible for deposits they may take, and we are not responsible for broken doors, windows, or bad workmanship, fitted kitchens, bad fitted bathrooms etc, we however would like to be told this in writing so we can take the matter to the company concerned and ask them to help you with your concerns.
When we deliver a cabin to our resellers, they are the owner of that cabin, timber building etc, until they give it to you, you don’t even own it, once its delivered to you, you sign for it, but before you do, inspect it, you can refuse to sign for it if there is damage. The law is on your side, however if you have had a bespoke cabin made for you, and there are missing parts, or a broken door, you cannot return this, the company (reseller) has 28 days, or whatever his T and C’s say in which to fix your Log Cabin. We have some amazing resellers, and they will bend over to help you have that amazing cabin in your garden.
Here is a note to everyone, only buy a cabin if your job is secure, and you can afford it, as most cabins are bespoke manufactured for you, refunds are almost impossible. So please beware of this.
Please take note, please,please always ask if you can pay with a credit card.
Many many years ago when we first started and made the first ever garden office, that to be honest was not too shabby, and 180mm round log cabins, plus the first ever 3d images, to show the public what they were getting, and today I just wanted to share with you, what exactly we did back in those days and the images we used, and how our cabins have come on since then, this really is going back into the very beginning of this industry. I hope you enjoy the images, photos and then look at our gallery and see how far we have come. A few photos to start with that show the present.
We are now offering you the chance to get the B2C, Business to Public. if you have a vat number, then all well and good, if not, then we can still sell you the cabin, timber frame, or whatever your after for the same price, https://www.factorycabins.co.uk/ki-range/ , here you will find unbelievably pricing. What people do not understand is this, you pay vat to everyone for everything if you are not VAT registered. And you only pay it once. so if you pay it to us you do not pay it in the UK , its simple. And why not pay the VAT to the countries that actually love their forests and keep them healthy, unlike the UK, who spends its cash on all sorts of Rubbish, ask Boris, In 2018/19: The UK MOD spent £38.0 billion. and none of it went to planting trees.
Also you should appreciate the countries that actually allow you to have their timber, because without the Baltics and Russian timber, 70% of your homes just would not be built. I am a britt, I love Putin, and I love the way Putin and Lukashenko look after their forests. Period.
……….SO B2P IS HERE, TAKE NOTICE AND MAKE THE BEST OF IT WHILE IT LASTS………
Someone always wants to spoil a good thing and no doubt, everyone will copy…
Now a lot of photos that show the past and how far we have come…..
This is how we use to make our images, now we are like this.As you can see a slight difference.!!!!!!!
THIS IS THE FIRST EVER GARDEN OFFICE 5M X 4M …… LOOKS LIKE CRAP NOW, BUT IN 2004 THIS WAS THE BEE’S KNEES. AND THE PRICE IF I REMEMBER RIGHTLY WAS ABOUT £1600 IN 44mm BUT IT WAS BUILT CHEAPLY, BUT WITH AMAZING TIMBER, AND ON THE FIRST CNC CABIN NOTCHER IN THE COUNTRY!
These photos bring back some really good memories, the days when the dealers were honest, reliable and hard working, now they are just greedy bastards who want your money and do not give a care about quality, if we did not put the market daily on quality levels this market would still be in 2001! And to those that do not agree with us selling direct, well, if you had not been so greedy in the first place, then, you might still have a decent supplier. now you have to go down the ladder and buy what you can, and then you have long waits, 10 weeks, 14 weeks, and why, because your factory is making bulk crap, so your bespoke just flew out the window. Greedy people never earn……
We all sit and think how we can better whatever it is we do
in life, be it kick a ball, build and sandcastle or design a kitchen, to making
dreams come true for other people, but in my case its always been about
designing spaces for people to stay in that intrigue and inspire internally and
externally.
Which is why my camping pods are I believe the most
adorable, of them all, as they were not designed for profit, they were designed
to inspire, and to offer those that entered into one of my designs a new look
at life, a feeling and a new no drama attitude to the world around them, and how a small space could be so, so different.
As a child I always sat in Churches or Cathedrals, when I was able to, and looked up at the roofs, i have a passion for church roofs, there is one church in particular , in the south of UK which is dedicated to fisherman, lifeboat crew, that lost their lives, etc, where the roof looks like a huge boat hull upside down, and if you dream a little you can almost see the church roof turned over and floating and crashing through the surf with many men pulling on the oars, wearing mackintoshes and risking their lives to save others, the roof was I think to me an inspiration of design that turned my mind to many different designs, but all with the sole purpose to give who ever it may be a pleasant unforgetable shock and the a wow reaction , be it a small camping pod, to an economy low income house, passive structure, or a 4m x 9.6m camping pod, all my structures must offer the feeling of a safe haven, peace strength, longevity and above all else quality.
So, when I see other companies copying something I designed, and actually making it worse, its not upsetting, or flattering, it disgusts me, as I know their only goal is money. Safety of design is priority number one, and that does not mean just escape entrances, in case of a fire, but also in structure, the structure must have strength, and a huge amount of it. As this means longevity.
THE FIRST EVER CAMPING POD DESIGN, AS YOU CAN SEE THIS WAS NOT DESIGNED BY IAN BONE……
Even after Newfoundland pods were designed by Ian Bone in 2004, they took a while to catch on. !!!
When I first started manufacturing camping pods, I decided to put the entrance on the side, not the front as Ian Bones first pods, which his design was an exact copy of the Indian Toda Hut, so to Ian, please, please stop telling people you designed the pod, you did not, …the Toda people did.
Sorry, i ramble, ok getting back to why i put the side entrance on the pod, and how Keith and others copied my designs, one even put a square house door on it, ( and seriously these are on par with arch leisure with zero strength and zero thought and zero anything, just made for making them money ) talk about zero balance, so getting back to my blog …….so we added the side door as it made sense, firstly fire, getting out of a pod and only having an entrance door at the front, and a small window at the back seemed to me madness, and the eco part was also missing as small door, small window, where does all that free natural beautiful light come in? Its doesn’t, so we decided to make our on pods, and we design righted them, the style and the way we believed they should be made. But also and you must not forget this, we made them super strong, and i mean super strong. Our pods are almost indestructable, winds, rain, hail, what ever mother nature throws at them, they will stand up to it.
None will show this kind of photo because none of the pods out there could take this kind of abuse! only ours which is why the Swiss/ Iceland, Norway, Italians businesses will never except the crap made in the UK because they are not designed to take harsh weathers and snow loads. And if you have a business and you want pods, come to the people that understand manufacturing, not some guy who sits at home, knows nothing about timber, manufacturing or even what a KN value is! Our Pods are designed to earn you a revenue year after year after year!!!
I then took on dealers, and then stuck to one dealer, Arch Leisure,
Keith, who I thought was a stand up guy, at the beginning he was cool, then the
Holidays each and every month, and then long, long holiday trips, and customers
waiting etc, kind of upset me a little bit, but I am a loyal guy and I carried
on with him, complaining but none the less carried on.
But in that time, he was scheming, and asked me to send him a pod without our tiles, or insulation and wiring etc, so he could copy how we manufactured the skeleton of the pod, and to his horror, I am laughing now because you can see he failed so miserably its almost funny, because to make our pods you need to have just one part of the mixture, and that is something him and his boys in a shed don’t have, experience, knowledge, or skilled carpenter craftsmans.
So when they saw our glulam beams, and how we made our structure solid, and how complicated it is, they gave up, before they begun. Stupid old bastard, destroyed a 8 year relationship because of greed. I hate greedy people, business is not about how much money you make, business is about how to make your customer happy, and for your customer to really love your product. and for the customer to return each and every year for more.
Our amazing Kitchen, it’s like sitting in the eaves of a church roof!!
What he has done now is cut down the build quality, incredible
internal strength and design, just to earn more money. This is simply madness,
dangerous and so I sacked him and asked him politely to take down all my pods,
so no one would ever think for one moment that my designs, and my company were
behind his Frankenstein creations. As his Pods may look OK, but in reality, they
are in my mind CRAP!
This is not a camping pod, it’s already being called podbin with no though apart to make money its awful. And were is the strenght.
I have added his attempt at a kitchen and mine, and for you the public to decide which one is with strength and style and what looks like a cheap nasty caravan.And what looks like it was designed to offer you a unique exsperience.
The cabin and timber frame market is sick, not just with greed but with the regulations and the Old Boys Club adding this and that to the rules every now and then, just to make you pay more, and pay and pay and pay. It’s always about money.
I hate to say this, but in the UK you just don’t have any decent timber left, and what you have you should not cut, as there is hardly any left, and most of it is oak, and that was planted by the Victorians, since then, Gordon Brown, Tony Blaire and the rest, planting Trees sadly have been forgotten, war and selling off our gold were only on these mens minds!
England is a mess where forests are concerned, we have built too many high rise blocks, tarmacked too much earth, and cut down too many forests to build council estates and now all you have left is roads, 67 million people and not much else. Scotland is different, as is Wales, but England, its destroyed! Fields and Fields of food produce , fertilizer everywhere, and zero woods, polluted streams, and disappearing wild life. What an amazing picture, so thank God that Russia, Sweden, Finland, Lithuinia, Belarus, and other countries see the value of timber, forests and wild life. Whos the stupid ones????? Who really is behind the times?? And I am a Britt!
My name is a Kevin Langham and I am the inovator, designer, and first manufacturer, of the side entrance quality luxury camping pod ( ever) and i have sold more than everyone puttogether x 10, the first video we released was in 2010, check this video, it has had nearly 500.000 views……… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9vFACBRNf0…………. Yeah its hard to dispute the truth when You Tube so nicely keeps the records.
I have invented, designed, manufacturer some of the most outstanding camping pods, large and small living cabins, and garden log cabins in existence.
The UK gardens have actually been changed by me, and me alone, I have beeen selling cabins, the first one we sold was nearly 21 years ago, and the people who have taken the credit, be a Dragons Den ” look at me and what we sell” , or a large company who saw 14 years ago that mass manufacturing log cabins was a way of making a lot of money, and then they dumped 200.000 poorly manufactured log cabins into the UK gardens quickly, these companies have taken the lime light, and poor old Kevin plods along still and designs, manufacture and sell’s to different companies, and in turn those companies rename my products, or completely copy it, like Arch Leisure and my side entrance pods, ( my backs up today) and then sell their wares, and use my quality and photos of my pods to sell their crap under the guise of a LV design.
Never purchase anything from Arch Leisure, you just don’t know what it’s made by, and trust me when I say this, he makes at least 50% on anything he sells you! So if its 10.000, you spend 15.000, from me it would be 7000.And my quality is far, far, far superior, as we are house manufacturers, not some guy in a shed, knocking out a few pods a month. And Keith i am almost sure their will be no more 4/5 times a year to Dubi to purchase handbags and other ,luxury wares, you will have to start earning your money honestly and legally.
Be careful whom you purchase from. You will be ripped off. That’s
a fact.
If you notice, this company have our designs and photos of our pods all over their website, which we have asked them nicely to take down, this is a way they will con you. and if they were to take down our camping pods their website would be empty. No content, just a few nasty cheap looking pods and toilets.
Your then shown an interior of a pod a long one, all in white, so now ask yourself a question, where is the strength in that wall? Now ours on the left of the page have glulam beams running through out, as the roof needs support, remember that KN values are essential in the UK because of new snow loads which the government directed all manufacturers to use, but as you can see on the right, there are no internal glulam supports, it’s called a luxury pod, it’s a death trap, and a dark one at that. And at £33,500+ REDUCED VAT, a rip off.
Below our Pods, and our Quality
Below my design of an interiour, very church like, very diiferent, very thoughtful, no drama, just peace of desgin and the flowing of powerful strong beams and beauty.
Now a bad, awful, weak, undermade, cheap copy, CRAP!
Designed only to make profit, based on caravan rubbish, BS3632 crap!
Cold, dark, weak, dead, empty and completely and utterly lifeless.
Where is the strenght? Where? Sorry did i miss something.
Super size Luxury Glamping Pods for sale An archleisure copy,…. (crap)
So my rant of the day is done, fed up with the cowboys thinking they can steal and get away with it, Keith, you stole another’s design for profit, i will garenttee that 99% of the descent farmers, and camp site owners will not want a rip off, a copy, and a bad one at that, and a double priced one to boot. Logcabins.lv, enquiries@logcabins.lv, come to the company that understands how to build.+370 6889 3563 , u can get us on whatsapp. Talk for free and get to speak to the professional Sheaprds , not the sheep!
OK lets start dissecting this pod sold by Archleisure and really look at what its manufactured from.Actually it does not say much, just blar this and Blar that, and of course they use TLX silver, which LV were the first to offer, and still do, actually we now offer, Gold, and silver, depending on the customers wishes and needs. But lets study this photo, and by the way if you happen to go to https://www.archleisure.co.uk/camping-pods-for-sale.html the marjority of the pods he is showing on his website are LV’s , he just went to a cheaper , shed manufacturer to copy our designs after 8 years of doing business, so he could make them cheaper and as you can see, not as well built. If you look at the timber along the side of this pod ( picture below) you will notice one thing very quickly, there are no stress grooves cut into the back of any of the timber, which means eventually it will twist, and that’s bad. Actually its suicide for that particular building. Next i do not see any grading marks of C24 anywhere on any of his production photos, and actually i do not see him say his windows and Trada certified, or that his timber is FSC, or what size glulams he uses. And as there is only one decent glulam mill in the UK, i have a feeling his are not made with certified glulam.
If you want to purchase a quality Camping Pod, and Archleisure this is not the company to purchase from!
I added a page view, just so my old friend Keith could not actually deny that he was selling our designs and decided to rip them off and make a cheap copy of them, but its easy as a customer to find out if this is true just by going to ,waybackwhen, and there all websites copies are held.
Anyway getting back to this pod copying company, which is rather funny actually, as he was so upset when someone stole his arch design, and how everyone was a crook, but when you have very greedy mouths to feed decent Common sense and Chivalry go out the window and greed takes it place.
And the public are fooled into thinking they are buying a quality pod, when in fact they are not, they are buying a copy of a quality Pod! logcabinslv is the best pod maker in the UK and europe thats a fact. everything else on the market is a copy and mostly is crap! If its not manufactured by skilled carpenters, then what your purchasing is not going to last. And no one in the UK can ever get our Northern Siberian Larch Cladding, EVER!!! No matter what they say, they can’t. I have been in the timber business 28 years, and the UK never gets our quality of timber.
So Keith, Mr Archleisure man, who’s website is made up of 90% of my products and you sell inferior to the customers under the guise that they are LV, now the public know.
We do not sell our pods or any items to www.archleisure.co.uk. If you want a pod, and want a company that will actually travel to site, check on how things are coming along, from the first to last day, and will service your pods and help you, and not just earn money by sitting at a desk and expecting everyone else to do the tidying up, then please give us a call or send an email.
logcabinslv.co.uk, the company behind the best pods in the industry, we designed them, the rest just copy!
A pod should be manufactured like this…. I am forgetting……….
PEOPLE WHO COPY DON’T CARE ABOUT QUALITY, JUST YOUR CASH!
If timber was so amazing for roofing…………… why then are there no houses with wooden roofs? Easy answer, timber is not waterproof, cracks and splits after a very short time, needs to be treated regularly and this is Cedar Clad, which has a lower amount of tanis than larch,and i still would not use larch ever as a roofing material, its solely for claddings. It’s a pity the people who come up with these ideas actually understood timber…..
Thank you for reading…. Do not make a mistake a buy a copy! Buy a good solid camping pod from the guys that started this revolution, the freedom for campsites, don’t feed the guys who only think about cash….. And trust me, they never come when there’s a problem and blame you for everything when it goes badly wrong.
Hi everyone, and welcome to the beginning of a New Age in OSB. Many years ago I went to a SIP panel manufacturer, and I looked at the SiP panel and asked many questions.
The first question I asked is, Why is it called a SIP Panel?
I was told it stood for Structural Insulated Panel. Obviously I asked the first question, how is a flimsy OSB board structural, the answer to this was simply explained, it was not the board, but the timber used to join them together that made them strong, so without the timber it is not ( structural).
I was then told that the OSB boards were not fireproof, and only slightly water resistant, since then, the boards have got better with water, not fire.
So I decided I had to make the best board, and it has taken years of pushing and spending, and trial and error to get what we believe is the best OSB board ever manufactured.
Before anyone asks, yes we went to China, why?, because price, quality, and volume, if you want to hit the market, and get capacity, China is number one, Ask Apple!
Also we use an independent test laboratory on every 1000 boards to check quality.
Our new company is now looking for companies that are looking to add to their products a fire-waterproof OSB.If you are interested please call us on the + 44 208 133 5164 and lets have a chat!

Understanding Outbuildings: A Comprehensive Overview
In the realm of property development, outbuildings, such as log cabins, play a crucial role in expanding living spaces and enhancing the functionality of a property. Whether it’s a garden shed, a greenhouse, or a garage, these structures contribute significantly to the overall enjoyment of a dwellinghouse. However, navigating the intricate web of planning permission guidelines can be daunting for many property owners. Fear not, as we unravel the complexities surrounding planning permission for outbuildings in this comprehensive guide.
Demystifying Planning Permission Guidelines
Permitted Development: What You Need to Know
Outbuildings are generally considered permitted development, meaning they do not require planning permission under specific conditions. However, it’s essential to adhere to certain limits and conditions to stay within the legal boundaries:
Location Restrictions: Outbuildings should not be situated ahead of a wall forming the principal elevation of the property.
Height and Size Regulations: • Single-story outbuildings and garages must not exceed a maximum eaves height of 2.5 metres and an overall height of four metres with a dual-pitched roof, or three metres for any other roof. • Additionally, any building, enclosure, or container within two metres of a boundary should not exceed a height of 2.5 metres.
Limits on Land Coverage: The total area of outbuildings and other structures shouldn’t be greater than half the area of the original house.
Special Considerations: • In designated areas, such as national parks or areas of outstanding natural beauty, stricter limitations on building coverage apply. • Properties within the curtilage of listed buildings require planning permission for any outbuilding construction. Understanding Building Regulations Compliance and Exemptions While planning permission governs the external aspects of outbuildings, building regulations focus on their structural integrity and safety standards. Here’s what you need to know:
Floor Area Restrictions: • Small detached buildings with a floor area of less than 15 square metres and no sleeping accommodation generally do not require building regulations approval. • For buildings between 15 and 30 square metres, approval may not be necessary if certain conditions, such as distance from boundaries and materials used, are met.
Garage Conversions: • Converting a garage into habitable space typically falls under building regulations scrutiny.
Exemption Criteria: • Many outbuildings are exempt from building regulations if they meet specific criteria, ensuring they are built to reasonable standards. Seek Expert Guidance Navigating the intricacies of planning permission and building regulations can be overwhelming. It’s advisable to consult with local planning authorities or seek professional advice to ensure compliance with legal requirements. Understanding the nuances of planning permission and building regulations is crucial for anyone considering the construction of outbuildings. By familiarising yourself with the guidelines outlined in this article, you can embark on your property development journey with confidence and peace of mind. For further information and guidance, visit reputable sources such as the Planning Portal. Remember, a well-informed approach is the key to unlocking the full potential of your property while staying on the right side of the law. Happy building!
