One of the most important parts of the build installation is at the base. To ensure they have the long life span as intended a flat and level base is required for any building. A base can be pretty much made out of anything: concrete, timber, paving stones. But, any base provided for any log cabin has to follow this criteria:
Consideration should be given to the majority of the weight being placed on the perimeter of the cabin.
Consideration should be given to the weight of the cabin, a 19mm is obviously considerably different to a 70mm.
It should be 100% level in every direction.
It should be square and true.
It should ideally be made to be just over the footprint size of the cabin.

19mm Thick Logs: This is a shed, ideal for storage and sturdier than traditional panel construction.
28mm Thick logs: These are a great all rounder and lend themselves to a perfect summer house for occasional use. However, with modifications they can be perfect for all year around use. Generally though, we would recommend you opt for a thicker log for more thermal capacity for all year around use.
34mm - 45mm Thick Logs : More appropriate for annual usage. This range is a good balance between heat costs and budget costs of the actual log cabin. Regardless, you will need to add insulation to the roof along with the floor for optimal year-round use. See all of our 40mm Log Cabins and 45mm Log Cabins
