Important information - retain for future reference
Shiplap buildings come ready stained but this is only a preparatory treatment.To VALIDATE the guarantee, the building must be properly treated with a recognised
external wood preserver WITHIN 3 MONTHS of assembly and RE-TREATED ANNUALLY thereafter.The building must also be erected on 75mm x 50mm
treated wooden or similar bearers (These are not supplied with the kit.) Ground contact must be avoided.
Timber Information.
As timber is a natural material, there are certain weather conditions that may affect the materials properties. In times of excessive dry spells the material may lose
some of its internal moisture causing a certain degree of shrinkage on a panel and in periods of excessive rain there will be a certain amount of swelling throughout
the wooden panels.This process can not be avoided. If you have problems with certain boards shrinking in dry spells try to decrease the amount of direct sunlight on
the building or the amount of air passing over the building. During hot spells spray water directly onto the panels with the aid of a garden hose.
