Building Treatment Guide



Project Time:     Man Power:  

Introduction

Many wooden buildings are supplied with a factory base coat, usually water based. The factory coat is generally only a primer, and you should apply a good quality wood treatment either prior to or during assembly, and then annually after. Varnish is not recommended, but there’s a multitude of preservatives and treatments available in a choice of colours. We recommend using a good quality, preferably spirit based application, for longer lasting protection. Water based treatments can become less effective after a few months of being weathered away.

Treating your Garden Building

We advise that suitable old clothing is worn during timber treatment, as the treatment may splash. Gloves may be worn as spirit based treatment can irritate the skin, if not make sure that hands are washed straight after application.

Treatment should be considered at the construction stage of your building as some areas will be unaccessable to treat once the building has been constructed. When treating your building ensure all surfaces are covered liberally, as moisture can penetrate the smallest of openings and overtime your building will show signs of damp and rot.

You may also wish to paint your garden building with exterior timber paint.
