Wooden garages from Cabin Living - 2011

Our wooden garages are made from nordic spruce and most unless otherwise stated are 44mm double tongue and groove. They provide quality construction with comfortable workspace ideal for storing your car, boat or motorcycle safe and dry in the winter months.

Quite often cheaper to build and yet in our opinion they are a far more attractive and valuable addition to your property than a concrete block built garage.

Reading log cabin - New Garden offices for 2011

Plenty of new cabins being added to our range this January.

Here we have the Reading log cabin made from the highest quality timber we have had the pleasure to work with. In our opinion these cabins far exceed the quality of Eurovudas and are marginally better than finnlife (finnforest) who we have previously considered the best in the industry.




Lots more models to come so please check our garden office pages

Living Props - Guest toilet log cabin

One enquiry we often get is can you fit a toilet in a log cabin or garden office. The answer is yes. In this case there are four!


One of our final projects of 2010 was the installation of a log cabin to be used as a guest toilet block on the premises of Living Props Ltd a company specialising in landscape props and plants for Pinewood studios, films, TV and major shop displays.

Features include:

4 toilets, 4 toilet cubicles, 2 sinks, Underfloor heating, Water resistant laminate flooring, Floor and Ceiling insulation, Double glazed windows and doors, central partition, seperate access for ladies and gents.



The living props team prepared the ground including hard core and had already placed a septic tank close to the cabin base.

The concrete base was tackled in two phases completing the central portion of the base first on day one followed by the wings and decking area supports on day two.

Cabin arrival and time to sort the timbers into their various lengths ready to start building.

Pressure treated floor bearers are laid first and damp proof membrane is attached prior to the first wall logs being positioned.

Following wall assembly the roof boards are fixed to cover the building interior

Day two of the cabin build itself and it is necessary to build the decking area to add the porch support timbers which then makes it possible to fit the remianing roof boards.

Roof complete just before another snowfall.

Ready to start work on the inside which is welcome considering the conditions outside!



50mm thick insulation for the floor.

Similarly 50mm thick insulation is added to the ceiling and plasterboard is fized to battens between the roof joists. Leaving some exposed roof joists are in our opinion a more attractive feature than boarding right over the top.

New for 2011 we now have a Winchester log cabin complete with integral central partition but in this case the partition was added as part of the installation process to create the ladies and gents toilet areas.

Toilet cubicles supplied via NFC Contracts

Under floor heating and water resistant, thick oak laminate flooring is fitted prior to adding the toilets and cubicles.

The heavy snow that grounded flights at Heathrow just a few miles down the road!

Cabin complete other than a few bits of plumbing and electrical connection.

Malvern Log cabin

In the grounds of Great Malvern primary school we have a log cabin installation for Worcestershire County Council of a Childrens Centre for Brighter Futures. The site was on edge of the Sure Start centre and overlooks a wooded area with a pond.

Our first task was to create a level concrete slab to build the cabin. There was already tarmac but this sloped around 50mm front to back and required a tapered former to create a level starting point.



Short of daylight so not many pictures of the build in this case. The cabin was modified from the standard Liverpool log cabin to include a single side door instead of the side window to allow access from the Sure Start centre.



An insulated and plasterboarded ceiling was selected as part of the option package for installation.




Tapered edge plasterboard is fitted between the roof joists over 50mm Celotex, Kingspan or Xtratherm. Joints are taped and joint filler is skimmed over the top ready for painting.












Hexham (hexagonal) bitumen roof shingles fitted to the cabin roof.
