Alternatively, customers can arrange with us to have the base completed for them. We can provide customers with information and/or a site survey to get exact measurements for your cabin base.  Ensuring the base for your cabin is correct is an extremely important step in the building process, therefore, we advise all our customers if your unsure about anything that is mentioned above, please do not hesitate to call our friendly and informative team on 083 115 3939 to discuss more.

The best way to maintain your log cabin to the highest standards we always recommend customers to go ahead with full exterior insulation which will not only maintain as much heat as possible internally but protect your log cabin as well through all seasons. As we install our insulation on the outside structure you will not loose any space inside your cabin. We offer 100mm External Insulation which will give you an estimated B3 BER Rating. We have different thickness size of insulation available and wall thickness also if requested by the customer. Our wall thickness starts at 189mm.

The windows and doors that we provide with all of our fully built residential and garden cabins are PVC Double Glazed Windows & Doors (White). The windows and doors that we provide with all of our flatpack kits are Double Glazed Premium Living-Type Windows & Doors. Customers can choose different types and colours of windows and doors for an additional cost.

All of our cabins come with 100mm Insulation which is then covered with Damp Proof Membrane.  Roof insulation is the best way for any building to keep the heat in and prevent heat loss through the roof. Insulating your log cabin roof is an absolute must to maintain heat throughout the whole year especially the winter months. Our specially designed insulation not only keeps your cabin warm and cosy all year round but also keeps your cabin cooler in the summer months. With our roof insulation breathable damp proof membrane is placed on the top which adds ventilation, security, and will keep the roof free of moisture. 2×1 battens are fixed vertically to create the cavity for ventilation. 2×1 battens horizontally are fixed on top creating a roof ready for steel cladding roof and 100mm insulation between the 4×2 timber

All of our fully built residential cabins and garden cabins come with steel roof tile effect cladding. These roofs are ideal as they are tough, long-lasting and hard-wearing. The roof is completed with PVC gutters & down pipes.

All our cabins come with 100mm Floor Insulation that is placed between our Treated Floor Bearers and covered with a Damp Proof Membrane. This method is done to ensure the base of your cabin and insulation is kept dry and protected year after year no matter the season.

For the best strength and balance we use Premium TG 28mm Floor Boards & 19mm Roof Boards which are internally visible. Afterwards, flooring for the cabin is completely down to customers preference whether that may be laminate, tiles or carpet it’s completely up to you and your style.

To keep any moisture or dampness away and to keep your cabin in the best state while maintaining the most heat of your cabin, we fit all of our cabins with Damp Proof Membrane that is fully covering the structure of the cabin and with 100mm Exterior Insulation or more on the outside all around your cabin, these combined will ensure your cabin is the most energy efficient.

Firstly, all of our garden cabins do not need planning permission. You can also build an extension to add up to 40 m2 to an existing house without planning permission. We offer our customers the opportunity to expand and extend their own home easily and creating more space for you and your family hassle free with our cabin extensions which can be rendered on the outside to make it blend in with your existing home if you wish. Please note: If you are enquiring about planning permission to your planning authority it’s advised to refer to the structure as a TIMBER FRAMED BUILDING instead of a LOG CABIN. As log cabins are made of timber they can be referred to and considered timber framed structures therefore it would be more beneficial to you and your chance of attaining planning permission to use the term timber framed building as opposed to a log cabin.  This is unfortunately due to the fact that not everybody understands the concept and fantastic potential of our log cabins especially now in the midst of a housing crisis. In accordance to the law it doesn’t matter on size or structure, any building that is intended for residential use/living in must officially have planning permission. Furthermore, our cabins are environmentally and eco friendly and cost efficient, we like to take the financial side of things into consideration as the cost of living and rent prices rise every day we know some people are struggling to make ends meet we understand not everybody is in the position or can afford to build a house or get a approved for mortgage. That’s why we believe that our cabins can be a new alternative living option to people all over Ireland. There is 3 types of planning permission: • Full planning permission • Outline planning permission • Retention planning permission.   Although we always advise all of our customers to seek out the correct advice and rules about planning permission in their area in some cases there is some people who choose to go ahead without planning permission. Numerous people are proceeding to build there cabin without planning permission (retention permission) especially in rural or concealed areas and more so in family properties, gardens and farms. You may also decide to go down this route however you must be aware that there is a possible risk of a complaint. While this is rarely the case it’s important to know your local authority may intervene and may ask you to remove your cabin or start a legal action against you. However, if in 7 years, nobody has intervened or took any action against you regarding your cabin then you are safe from any legal or enforcement action against you in relation to your cabin from then on and after. Many people are unsure and unaware about the facts when it comes to planning permission relating to log cabins. Discussing planning permission can be a complex conversation. If you are not sure about the rules and regulations regarding to planning permission we always advise our customers to contact their local planning authority/county council to find out more if you would need planning permission as every area differs.  Check out this link: https://www.cavancoco.ie/services/planning-building/planning-permission/(https://www.cavancoco.ie/services/planning-building/planning-permission/) You also contact citizens information on 0818 07 4000 or visit their website: https://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/housing/planning_permission/planning_permission_general.html(https://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/housing/planning_permission/planning_permission_general.html) Please Note: Cosy Cabins can only advise customers on planning permission. Any information we give on this matter is only a guideline and is not definitive. We always advise our customers to do their research on planning permission and comply with the local authorities and rules in their area. We are hopeful for a positive change very soon for planning permission to become more easily approved for log cabins in Ireland.
