IE Base and Warranty
The following are also excluded
 Damage resulting from poor assembly
 Poor treatment application
 Poor care and maintenance
 Changes to the design
 Misuse
 General wear and tear
Warranty...
10 Year anti rot warranty subject to the following -
 The building must be raised so it is not in contact with any water
retaining base surface (for example grass).
 This can be achieved using a timber, concrete or slab base
 When using a concrete or slab base use damp proofing strips
under the bearers
 The building must have been completely treated and sealed
immediately prior to or after assembly
 The building must have been re-treated and re-sealed annually
 If your building has been pressure treated or has any pressure treated
parts additional treatment must still be applied .
 Wood is a natural product and therefore the following are excluded
from the warranty
Colour changes
Warping
Splitting
Preparation of base...
We recommend that the base onto which your building will stand should be at least
75mm larger in each direction than the total floor size of the building.
Actual floor area of the building: 1828mm x 1197mm
Total height clearance: 2166mm
Roof size: 1994mm x 1302mm l
The chosen position in your garden for your building should be excavated to a depth
of 75mm to allow a base of sand, on to which paving slabs can be evenly laid.
You may also use an adjustable timber base or a concrete base. Whatever base you
decide upon IT MUST BE LEVEL AND FIRM.

Care, Maintenance and Recycling
The 7 golden rules of maintenance
Recycling and disposal
1. Pallet and timber widely recycled
2. Cardboard widely recycled
3. Plastic strapping subject to local regulations
4. Plastic sheeting subject to local regulations
1. Timber widely recycled
2. Metal fixings widely recycled
3. Glass widely recycled

packaging
Building
(1) Ensure your base is level and firm
(2) Ensure the building is not sitting directly on the ground using damp proof
membrane or the optional timber base.
(3) Ensure every piece of timber and surface, especially that is hidden upon
assembly is treated with a top quality wood preservative at least twice (see
note on pressure treated buildings in warranty section). Turn the panels
upside down whilst painting so the treatment runs into the seams.
(4) Garden buildings are not waterproof, therefore we recommend you seal
between all the panels with a silicone based sealant .
(5) Regularly check your roofing felt for weather damage and leaks
(1) Re apply the timber treatment annually. (see note on pressure treated
buildings in warranty section)
(2) Visually check for weather damage
(3) Check and replace if necessary any Silicone sealant if used on your
building.
(4) Check the roofing material for wear
(5) The doors and windows may require periodical adjustment
(6) Ensure your building is well ventilated especially during hot weather
(7) During extremely hot periods humidify your building to prevent the timber
from drying out .
