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 assembly.
 The building must have been re-treated and re-sealed annually.
NOTE: Wood is a natural product, and therefore the following are
excluded from the warranty:
- Colour change.
- 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: 1236mm x 654mm
Total height clearance: 2235mm
Roof size: 1421mm x 746mm
The chosen position in your garden for your building should be excavated to a depth
of 75mm to allow a base of sand, onto 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.

building.
(3) Check the roofing material for wear.
(4) The doors and windows may require periodical adjustment.

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
(before assembly). 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.
