How much do wooden garden houses cost?
Buying wooden houses at affordable prices is the dream of all garden owners.
The price of a wooden garden shed depends on the model chosen : for example, the medium-low range almost always includes small prefabricated buildings intended to act as a tool shed.
Furthermore, the price on offer can be lower not only due to the dimensions but also due to the thickness and quality of the wood it is made of.
Low-end wooden houses
The figures start from around 200 euros for wooden houses reduced to less than 1 square meter, i.e. very small rooms.
Below 150 euros we are talking about real wooden wardrobes for outdoors in the shape of a small house, with a simple decorative value.
Mid-range garden sheds
Within the medium range, i.e. from 400 euros upwards, we start talking about real houses, or sheds and sheds larger than garden furniture.
The most classic price for a wooden house of around 5 square meters generally stands at figures above 500 euros. As you go up, on the 8 square meters the prices can go up to 1,000 or 2,000 euros. In this case, prices are affected not only by dimensions and materials, but also by any finishes.
Within 3,000 euros you can therefore take home a respectable classic garden shed, generous in terms of dimensions which, in the most expensive cases, amount to around 15 square meters, well made in terms of materials, generally equipped with doors, small windows and a relative high aesthetic and decorative value.
To these sums and dimensions must be added those of possible foundations to be built in the garden, and the money necessary for the legal procedures for the building which from here begin to become unavoidable.
High-end wooden houses
On the other hand, in the high-end range, with prices starting from 4,000 euros and higher, you can find the most advanced habitable wooden houses. Some models cost up to 10,000 euros.
At these prices we are talking about products destined to become real housing units, whose dimensions rarely go below 35 square meters. Beyond a certain threshold we speak of real prefabricated wooden houses. The quality of the wood tends to be superior and the quantity of external finishes makes the house much more refined and detailed.
Some recommendations on wooden garden houses
Here are some of our recommendations on wooden houses.
Bureaucracy wooden houses
The installation of a wooden house involves making a request to the municipal authorities. It must be the purchaser's responsibility and responsibility to have a qualified technician carry out the requests, authorisations, permits and consents of the administrative authorities necessary according to the regulations in force.
Installing a log cabin
The house must be installed on a stable and non-deformable base , in a raised place, which allows rainwater drainage. It should be protected from spray from any irrigation system and at due distance from green hedges which prevent the natural transpiration of the wood.
Normally the house is delivered with a heavy vehicle. If the packaging is intact, the house can remain outside for a few days (maximum one week) provided that it is placed on a perfectly level base.
Before starting the assembly, carefully read the assembly instructions and count all the pieces using the check-list; check that there are no broken or defective parts which could prevent the correct assembly of the shed.
To guarantee a long life to your shed, it is advisable, before starting assembly, to apply a coat of wood stain (transparent or very clear) on all the boards and strips that make it up.
It is recommended to carry out the assembly always adopting personal protective equipment (such as shoes, gloves, protective glasses and to use the power tools, ladders and all the necessary work tools with caution). Particular attention must be paid to children who must be kept away from the work area until assembly is complete.
Maintenance to increase the life of a wooden house
Proper maintenance is required to protect and prolong the life of your log cabin. It is recommended to carry out a treatment with a waxed impregnator for exteriors, choosing the desired shade from the range of colors offered. The treatment will be repeated whenever the color loses tone and brilliance.
Periodically check the stability of the house, the tightening of the screws and the correct functioning of the door and window.
Precautions for use
Always close the door after use. Never insert incandescent objects such as barbecues that are still hot or with burning embers.
Waterproofing the log cabin
The house is supplied with bituminous felt which, if correctly assembled, guarantees a duration of approximately two/three years, therefore it is advisable to purchase and waterproof the house with a long-lasting covering such as bituminous Canadian shingles , corrugated roofing, slated sheath , and much more.
We point out that on Windowo you can find various professional products for waterproofing for sale online.
