TREATMENT
Our buildings are treated both internally & externally with a spirit-based preservative that helps to protect the timber from fungi, woodworm & blue stain. We do recommend that buildings are retreated within 3 months unless painted and then every year for continuous protection. All of our buildings can be upgraded to a painted finish.
