Does my log cabin need treating or painting?Updated a month ago

Your log cabin is untreated. It is therefore vital to treat your log cabin as soon as possible after assembly with a high-quality wood preserver. We would recommend applying several coats and try get a good thick layer to the bottom few logs on each side and around all log joints. 

If you wish to treat your log cabin with a paint, you may want to use a clear preserver as well as the paint. Speak to the paint supplier / manufacturer for more details. 

You then need to re-treat the garden building annually, to ensure the logs are thoroughly protected. You would need to treat the inside of your log cabin as well as the outside.
