Purpose built log cabins for Schools and Nurseries

Schools have very particular needs with their new buildings. Often needing to be built economically, quickly and out of an environmentally friendly material, and still meet with the criteria laid out by the educational authority. Our log cabins are surprisingly low cost and due to the traditional construction methods can be built quickly which further reduces build costs and minimises any inconvenience. As our timbers come from well managed forests, you can be confident that you are using a Renewable Natural Resource and we aim to achieve FSC / PEFC Chain of Custody certification during 2008. One of our buildings has also been nominated for an RICS (NW) sustainability award.

Our log school buildings can be supplied with low maintenance larch cladding which is naturally resistant to decay and weathers an attractive silver / grey colour. It can be stained if preferred. The style this material is applied forms clean lines around the cabin and leaves no protruding log ends to form a completely weatherproof seal protecting the wall logs.

Cabinco are specialists in the supply and construction of log cabin buildings, and are happy to work alongside either your own appointed main contractor or architect to achieve a complete construction package. We are proud to have completed the Junior Section for the Manchester Grammar School which we beleive to be the largest log cabin educational building in the UK.

Shelters

Schools often need to provide shelters for the children from the elements - both in Summer and Winter. Outdoor classrooms are also popular. Our range of sturdy Shelters & Gazebos are ideal and are priced low enough to be an attractive focus for fundraising activities. Click here for more details.
