some warping, movement and splitting, 
particularly during unusual climatic conditions

Thank you and congratulations on the purchase of your Shire garden building. 
We believe that this product will give you many years of excellent service. This is a

experience any difficulties then please contact our customer service hotline on

.                                                                                                                

Normal office hours: 8.30 am to 5.00 pm Monday to Friday.  

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. 
Floor area of the building: 2390x2690 (8’x9’) including verandah. 
Total height clearance: 2606mm 
The chosen position in your garden for the siting of the building should be  excavated to 
a depth of 75mm to allow a base of sand, on to which paving slabs can be evenly laid - 

THEY MUST BE LEVEL AND FIRM.

 

Treatment/care of your Garden Building 

Treat with a suitable decorative wood finish immediately. We recommend that all timber 
pieces be treated again prior to assembly and again within 3 months of  assembly. We 
further recommend that all pieces are treated again at least annually or as frequently as 
the instructions on the product used recommends. 
We would suggest that all wall panels be treated in an upside-down position to allow 
the finish/treatment to ingress into the tongue and groove jointing. 
We would also remind you that you would rarely (if ever) be able to re-treat the 
underside of the floor following assembly. We strongly recommend that the underside 
of the floor is treated an absolute minimum of twice (not including pre-treatment). 

Garden buildings are not waterproof, therefore on assembling building we  
recommend using a silicon based sealant between wall panels and between wall
