FAQs

Is the timber suitable for permanent outdoor use?
Yes. All main structural timber is pressure treated to protect it from moisture, rot, and insect damage, helping the gazebo remain strong and stable outdoors for many years.

What are Katepal black shingles made from?
Katepal shingles are manufactured using SBS-modified bitumen, a flexible and highly durable material designed to withstand temperature changes, heavy rain, and wind.

Will this gazebo cope with year-round weather?
When installed with a waterproof membrane and maintained using a suitable wood oil such as Osmo Oil, the gazebo provides dependable protection throughout the seasons.

What does “no overhang” mean for this design?
A no-overhang gazebo has a roof that finishes flush with the main frame. This creates a clean, compact appearance and is ideal where space, symmetry, or a modern look is important.

How does an apex gazebo differ from a four-pitch design?
An apex gazebo features two roof slopes meeting at a central ridge, while a four-pitch gazebo has four sloping sides that meet at a single peak, forming a pyramid shape.

Can this gazebo be made to a custom size?
Yes. Bespoke sizing is available, allowing the gazebo to be tailored precisely to your space. Contact the sales team to discuss your requirements.

Will I need planning permission to install it?
In many cases, planning permission isn’t required if the gazebo meets permitted development guidelines. We recommend checking with your local authority to be certain.

Installation

Is the gazebo delivered fully built?
No. The gazebo is supplied in kit form to make delivery and handling easier. A detailed installation guide is included to walk you through the build process.

Are all fixings supplied with the kit?
Yes. All required fixings and components are included, so there’s no need to purchase additional hardware.

Can I install the gazebo myself?
Many customers choose to self-install. Due to the size and weight of the structure, having assistance or using a professional installer is recommended.

Aftercare and Maintenance

Can the gazebo be painted or stained?
Yes. Once the timber has fully dried, you can apply water-based paints or stains. Applying a UV-protective treatment beforehand is recommended for best results.

What ongoing maintenance is required?
We recommend treating the timber every six months with Osmo Oil and periodically checking for dirt build-up to keep the gazebo looking its best.

How long should the gazebo last?
With correct installation and regular maintenance, the gazebo can last between 10 and 20 years.
