Currently trying to have the following issues rectified for a log cabin purchased from Garden Buildings direct. They have advised 'movement' should be allowed for and basically i need to rebuild the log cabin each time movement occurs!!!! The front of the cabin is contracting at such a pace i question if it was kiln dried at all!
1. Visible movement in doth side walls. Wooden panels are no longer slotted together in a uniformed straight line.
Visible movement of both doors. The gap between the doors is greater at the top of the door frames than it is at the bottom.
Visible large gap formed where a wooden slat he moved between the door frame and window frame.
Visible gap around the window frame is greater at the top than the bottom.
Visible bowing of the roof.
2. LHS sidewall
End fancier has moved and buckled
Side beams warping creating a gap between the panels
3. RHS sidewall
End fancier has moved and buckled
Side beams warping creating a gap between the panels
4. LHS front corner
Interlocking beam completely split in half and other visible cracks
5. LHS front corner
Multiple interlocking beams warped and twisted
6. LHS rear corner
Movement of multiple interlocking beams
7. RHS sidewall/ roof
End fancier has moved and buckled
8. RHS front door
The door has moved and the top of the door is higher than the joining door meaning they will not close or lock
The top panel of the door has twisted and the top corner is no longer flush
9. LHS front corner
Another view of the multiple interlocking beams warped and twisted
10. LHS door
Degeneration/ defects in the wood
11. RHS door
Visible gap in the door frame larger at the top of the door and narrower at the bottom of the door
Wooden panel between the door frame and window frame has moved resulting in a large gap
12. Window – RHS of building
Window frame has distorted resulting in a gap at the bottom of the frame. The window will not open or close properly
13. Roofline taken from RHS front corner
Visible bowing of the roof
14. RHS front corner
Multiple interlocking beams warped and twisted
15. RHS front corner
Large gap between interlocking beams due to warping and twisting of wooden panel
The level of movement, twisting and distorting is unacceptable and the cabin is no longer fit for purpose. The doors will not close or lock and the window once opened will not close.
