Slow grown spruce
Unlike our competitors, we only use high-quality spruce timber in our garden garages rather than the cheaper alternative pine or mixed timber. Why do we use slow-grown spruce rather than the much cheaper alternatives?
Spruce is considered more stable as it expands and contracts less than pine. This stability means that the spruce walls of our garden buildings minimise gaps appearing as the timber changes along with the weather. We responsibly source all our timber, where it grows slowly in the cold northern regions. We all know the old adage of counting the rings to see how old a tree is, well our timber grows slower, and takes longer to get to size meaning it has more rings in it. This means it has a tighter grain, and each ring helps prevent cracks and shakes appearing in the densely packed timber.
Our garden buildings really are built to last therefore we use only the highest quality, slow-grown spruce. Spruce is much more resilient to warps and splits compared to its cheaper alternative pine. Being a whitewood, it doesn’t discolour anywhere near as much as pine so it is also much more aesthetically pleasing for a log garage. Considered more stable, less knotty and resinous than pine, spruce will also produce a lot less sap. It is also less dense meaning it is not as susceptible to mould and rot.
Many manufacturers use a mix of timber saving them money. They will buy the lowest cost timber and then mix these up during production, often using finger joints. Ending up with a wooden garage, where the walls are a mix of pine (redwood) and spruce (whitewood). Not only does the timber garage then look comical, with stripy walls of different timbers, but this just shows a lack of pride about the finished product.

Fully Pressure Treated
All of our timber frame garages and carports are fully pressure treated as standard. We take the pre-cut lengths of timber and place them in a large pressure treatment tank, where the timbers are impregnated with a non-toxic preservative. We add a colourant during this process, giving the timber a rich brown colour. By pressure treating the timber, we can offer a genuine 10-year guarantee against rot and insect infestation.
This treatment prevents the timber from rot, decay and insect infestation for up to 10 years. Due to this costly but effective process we can offer our customers a genuine 10-year guarantee against rot and insect infestation on all the timber. We only suggest that you apply a good quality water repellent to prolong the longevity of the timber.
All our Pressure Treated timber is for User Class 3

120mm Chunky Posts, Not Thin 115mm Posts
When we say chunky, we mean chunky! Our 120mm by 120mm chunky posts are made using high-quality spruce which has been pressure treated, before going through a laminating process which bonds the timber together. By laminating the timber, we can create a strong post which is less likely to shrink, swell and twist.
We also router grooves into the posts to not only give a distinctive look and mask the joints but to also further reduce the likelihood of the timber twisting. Most of our competition provide you with what they believe to be large posts, commonly 115mm thick. But when it comes to chunky garages and carports, we think bigger is better!
Heavy Duty Framework
Our thick roof boards are made from 19mm pressure treated slow grown spruce. This heavy-duty material is perfect for withstanding anything the British weather can throw at it. Supported by full lengths of heavy-duty purlins, which come in a whopping 140mm x 45mm. These oversized purlins will prevent the roof from sagging.
We use chunky 120mm x 120mm posts which not only look pleasing but they also support the heavy-duty roof purlins, guaranteeing a strong robust structure which is built to last.
Attached to the chunky posts is a 70mm framework with full lengths of 15mm shiplap cladding. The cladding interlocks creating a strong watertight bond along with a channel that allows rain to run off the garage to the ground quickly. Not only is this cladding design practical but also creates an attractive, professional appearance.

Thank you for taking the time to read about our terms and advice during this period. We hope you can enjoy your Dunster House garden product for many years to come.
To ensure the very best quality, we only use slow-grown White Spruce Timber, which is harvested in cold climates to ensure solid, dense log rings. This gives the wood superior strength and longevity, and also a much more consistent colour than the likes of Pine.
Despite the care we take in selecting the very best Timber available, it’s not like predictable brick or cold steel, this natural material has characteristics and quirks unique to every log.
Because our timber logs once fed water and nutrients back and forth from its roots to its leaves, its very nature is to be porous and swell up when it gets wet. Any wooden product will do this throughout its life, but there are a few things you can do to help limit this movement.
These include:
1. A great design!
2. Water Repellent Treatment.
3. Ventilation.
4. Regular Seasonal Maintenance.
Natural Timber Properties
After building your timber product, this natural construction will begin to ‘settle’. This means that you will likely see some natural timber imperfections appear. These types of natural imperfections can include:
Please be aware that, as these are natural timber properties they are not considered as defects under our Terms & Conditions (for more information, check out our Ts&Cs here). However, in most cases, these imperfections will not impact the integrity or function of your timber product, and/or can easily be rectified. For advice on how to rectify these and for more support, please get in touch with our Customer Services Team on cs@dunsterhouse.co.uk.
