PRE-ASSEMBLY STEP • 1
01
Unpack all of the components and check that
you have all the parts required. Please use the
checklist on previous page.
Carefully dispose of the delivery pallet and
any excess timber.
Advisable: The underside of the oor must be
treated with a quality wood preserver.
Recommended: Paint shed
in an oil based treatment to
prevent water ingress into
the timber. Also silicon your
windows (Must silicon inside &
outside) to prevent rain water
seeping through the gaps
between glass and the timber.

Add the Finishing
Touch. (Optional)
Timber is a naturally grown product and may shrink and warp when dried out, timber is a porous
material which can absorb water. Although all of our buildings come pressure treated we strongly
advise the building is re-treated with an oil/spirit based treatment inside and out to make the timber
water repellent and to preserve the quality and life of the product.
