Wooden Garages

After you place your order and submit your deposit, we typically deliver wooden car garages within 4 to 8 weeks. This timeframe may vary depending on seasonal demand and logistics, but we’re committed to meeting your schedule and will work diligently to deliver your garage when you need it.

We use exclusively slow-growing Nordic spruce wood for all our timber garages and wooden garages. The harsh Northern European climate, with its intermittent hot summers, causes trees to grow slowly, resulting in exceptionally compact and hard wood fibers that provide remarkable durability and strength.

Our timber carries FSC certification, reflecting our fundamental commitment to environmental protection. This certification ensures our wood comes from sustainably managed forests that are protected from industrial logging practices.

Our standard delivery packages for wooden garages typically measure 6 meters in length, 0.8 meters in height, and 1.2 meters in width, with each package weighing between 1,000 and 2,000 kilograms. While we maintain flexibility to accommodate specific project requirements, most packages conform to these standard dimensions. Please note that certain structural variations or custom designs may result in slight dimensional adjustments to the packaging.

Planning permission requirements vary by location. Generally, any structure with more than 25 square meters of living space requires planning approval. However, since local rules might slightly differ, we highly recommend customers check with their local authorities prior to purchase.

For larger timber garages and wooden car garages, planning permission is necessary. Please keep in mind that NIDA LOG HOUSES only provides the wooden garages you requested and is not responsible for planning permission, which is the customer’s responsibility. We recommend scheduling a preliminary consultation with your local planning authority to discuss your project and identify any potential requirements or restrictions in your area before proceeding.

We offer extensive customization possibilities to meet your specific requirements. Our range includes everything from storage units, garden houses, garden rooms, wooden car garages, wooden garages, and other structures to weekend retreats and full timber garages with various configurations, including two-story designs.

Proper maintenance is crucial for preserving the longevity and visual appeal of your wooden car garage or timber garage. Protective treatments including specialized varnishes, natural oils, and wood preservatives are essential to defend against insect damage and prevent mold growth. Consistent application of quality paints provides vital protection from environmental factors, including UV radiation and moisture, significantly minimizing the potential for wood deterioration, warping, and decay.

Initial Treatment Requirements
Your wooden garages arrive untreated, making immediate treatment essential following assembly. Apply multiple coats of high-quality wood preserver, ensuring thorough coverage with particular attention to the lower logs on each wall and all log joint connections. If you prefer a painted finish, consider applying a clear preserver beneath the paint layer—consult your paint supplier for specific product compatibility and application guidance.

Essential Application Guidelines
Quality workmanship yields superior long-term protection—prioritize thoroughness over speed. Follow these critical procedures for optimal results:

• High-quality paints typically eliminate the need for primers or undercoats, though always consult manufacturer specifications
• Apply 2-3 complete coats of paint or stain for adequate protection
• Thoroughly mix paint before application to ensure consistency
• Avoid painting in direct sunlight, particularly when using darker colors
• Verify logs are completely clean and dry prior to treatment application
• Complete coverage is essential—even minor untreated spots can compromise protection
• Apply uniform coating to all surfaces, including undersides and edges of doors and windows
• Use brushes rather than rollers to ensure proper penetration into gaps, corners, and difficult-to-reach areas
• Important: Never use clear varnish on exterior surfaces

Ongoing Maintenance Schedule
Annual retreatment is necessary to maintain comprehensive protection for your structure. We strongly advise treating both interior and exterior surfaces for complete preservation. To maintain optimal condition, comprehensive maintenance should be conducted every 2 years, with annual touch-ups as needed.

Access Considerations
When positioning your timber garage, ensure sufficient clearance on all sides to facilitate annual treatments and routine maintenance tasks. This accessibility is vital for proper long-term care of your investment.

We recommend professional-grade protective impregnation treatments specifically formulated for both interior and exterior applications, ensuring complete protection for your wooden car garage investment.
