Playhouses

Constructing a Palmako playhouse is a rewarding DIY project that brings joy to your children. Palmako provides detailed, step-by-step instructions with every kit to ensure a smooth assembly process. Before you begin, select a perfectly level and square foundation, such as a concrete pad or paver blocks, to prevent the playhouse from sinking or becoming unstable. The playhouses are made from high-quality, kiln-dried Nordic spruce. Note that the kits are delivered as unfinished timber, and it is crucial to treat the wood with a protective product immediately after assembly.

A well-designed wooden cabin provides exceptional flexibility, allowing homeowners to adapt the space to suit their lifestyle, property layout, and personal preferences. Whether you want a peaceful retreat, a functional workspace, or additional room for guests, a timber cabin can be customised to meet your practical and aesthetic needs. Many customers begin with a simple layout and gradually expand or refine the space over time—installing insulation, adding storage, incorporating lighting, or integrating decking to enhance the usability of their outdoor area.

 

Before beginning any project, it is important to understand the basic requirements for site preparation, foundations, tools, and construction methods. Our dedicated resources, including Builder Advice, Tools Needed, and Foundations, offer clear guidance to help you plan each stage effectively. Preparing your site correctly not only ensures a smooth installation but also contributes to the long-term stability and performance of your structure.

 

Once your cabin is assembled, ongoing care such as paint, wood protection, and seasonal maintenance plays a key role in preserving the timber and extending the life of the building. You can find practical guidance on coating, sealing, and upkeep in our Painting & Maintenance section, which outlines the best practices for protecting your investment.
