Wooden Summer Houses - All the Information You Need


A wooden summer house is a lot more than a storage shed, yet to the uneducated they are remarkably similar. They both have four sides along with a roof, both are located in the garden, have a door from the outside world, what exactly I hear you ask, is the difference? A wooden summer home is extra time to a house, a place that can be visited to unwind and also to entertain, not simply to store rusty tools like the garden storage shed.

Another main difference obviously may be the price, for wooden summer houses are not cheap. They cost a substantial amount of money therefore it is vital that you choose one having a design that will appeal for a number of years and also is made out material that will withstand the harshest of winters.

Whether or not you build your own wooden garden house or buy one in, you will probably need planning permission. Every local authority is different so depending on your location you may get lucky, but either way its smart to make sure before the building begins. There would be nothing worse than wasting all that money with to pull the summer house recorded on the orders from the local council.

It's important that you think off all the various factors before you begin the build. Below is a list of tips to think about:

Regulations - As mentioned above, always check local building regulations with the relevant authorities.

Foundations - No matter size, all wooden summer houses will need foundations. This will help avoid the floor from rotting and also provide a slight elevation.

Materials - Make sure you select a hardy wood that won't rot quickly and isn't susceptible to attack from mites or similar. Western red cedar is popular, out of the box oak.
