Before You Start
Assembly Guide
Do not attempt assembly of your building until you have checked the
‘component list’
at the back of this guide book
to ensure all parts are present. You must notify our Technical Helpline of any missing or damaged components within
14 days of receipt of the building.
In the unlikely event of any problems, issues or for any questions, please contact our Technical Helpline on
0333 777 7089.
Before you call, please make a note of any parts that may be damaged or missing.
Please refer to your
fixtures and fittings box
for supplied screws, expanding foam and nails. Tools for erecting and
preserving the building are not supplied as part of the purchase and are listed on page 6 for a guide.
Guarantees are limited to the replacement of incorrect or damaged materials. Your statutory rights
are unaffected.
Building your garden room is relatively straightforward for anyone with a good standard of DIY or building
experience. In general, it does not require any special skills, but it will require a logical approach and will sometimes
require some general carpentry.
If you have any doubts as to your ability, you should contact Forest Garden and
arrange for a professional team to assemble the building for you.
Be aware of any raised ground surrounding the site of the garden room as this may cause water to drain onto the
slab base or under the Xtend building.
Building the base correctly is very important
– cutting corners on this part of
the project will potentially make assembly difficult, and jeopardise the longevity of your garden room.
For more information on building your base, please refer to the
Base Preparation
section mentioned in this guide
book.
It is strongly recommended that you build your garden room in dry conditions for the best building experience
and results.
In addition to this written guide, we also have a supplementary ‘how to’ video guide which can be viewed at
forestgarden.co.uk
if you would like any extra guidance during your step by step build.
The step by step assembly instructions are partly generic.
The floor plans provided are specific to your Xtend
garden building but most of the imagery is generic, as the build is relatively the same for all Xtend garden buildings.
The main difference is the quantity of components provided.
