FAQs – Wooden Apex Gazebo with Katepal Grey Shingle Roof (No Overhang)

Product

Are the timber components pressure treated?
Yes. All structural timber components are fully pressure treated to protect against rot, moisture, and insect damage. Roofing materials are supplied separately and do not require pressure treatment.

What are Katepal shingles made from?
Katepal shingles are manufactured from SBS-modified bitumen, offering excellent flexibility, durability, and resistance to tearing in changing weather conditions.

Can this gazebo be made to bespoke sizes?
Yes. Bespoke sizing is available, allowing the gazebo to be tailored precisely to your garden or patio layout.

Is the Katepal grey shingle apex gazebo weather resistant?
Yes. When installed with a suitable waterproof membrane and maintained with a quality wood treatment such as Osmo Oil, the gazebo provides reliable protection from the elements.

What does “no overhang” mean?
A gazebo with no overhang has roofing that finishes flush with the main frame. This keeps the structure compact and allows more direct sunlight into the space below.

What’s the difference between an apex gazebo and a 4 pitch gazebo?
An apex gazebo has two sloping roof sides that meet at a central ridge. A 4 pitch gazebo slopes on all four sides and meets at a single point, forming a pyramid-style roof.

Do I need planning permission for this gazebo?
In many cases, gazebos can be installed under permitted development rules without planning permission. Regulations vary by location, so it’s always best to check with your local council.

Installation

Does the gazebo arrive fully assembled?
No. The gazebo is supplied in kit form for easier delivery and handling. Clear installation instructions are included to support both DIY installers and professional fitters.

Are fixings included with the gazebo?
Yes. All fixings required for assembly and installation are included with your order.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Can I paint the gazebo?
Yes. Once the timber is fully dry, you can apply a water-based paint or finish. Applying UV protection beforehand is recommended to help preserve the timber’s appearance.

What maintenance is required?
To maintain performance and longevity, we recommend treating the gazebo every six months with a suitable wood oil and periodically removing any built-up dirt or debris.

How long will the gazebo last?
With correct installation and regular maintenance, a pressure-treated wooden gazebo can typically last between 10 and 20 years.
