Choosing A 8ft x 6ft Summer House From 1st Choice Leisure
When choosing a summer building, you need to check the specifications to ensure it will have the strength to withstand the elements. To help busy shoppers, here’s a Strength Checklist:
• Timber Type: Opt for redwood over the cheap, inferior whitewood.
• Framing Thickness: Ensure it’s robust enough for durability.
• Glass Quality: Look for toughened glass instead of imperfect horticultural glass or plastic for safety.
Our summerhouses are built with strong joinery, so doors and windows stay secure and work well for years. We use toughened glass for safety, which is important to almost all our customers. By choosing quality materials, we make sure your summerhouse is durable and reliable.
Many buyers look at these details when deciding what’s best for their garden.
Free Installation Included As Standard On All Diamond & Platinum Buildings.
Many online sellers will deliver your building and leave you to assemble it yourself. This might seem cheaper at first, but there are hidden costs and risks. You’ll need to spend hours putting it together, and mistakes can be expensive if you’re not used to DIY projects.
You may also need to buy or rent tools, fix errors, and spend a lot of your own time. Even for experienced DIYers, it can be a tough job.
The best option is to take advantage of 1st Choice’s FREE assembly option on the Diamond and Platinum buildings. They will do all the hard work, and all you need to do is build a level base for it to go onto.
And they can arrange that for you if you wish. One of our satisfied customers claimed, ‘Watching the team complete the assembly in just a few hours was a relief, and it allowed me to enjoy my new space without the stress of putting it together myself.’
This way, you can be sure your new building will be built correctly, and all you need to do is enjoy it.
Insulating My Summer Building
To get the most from your new 8×6 building, consider adding lining and insulation so you can use it all year. This upgrade can lower your heating bills by up to 30%, saving you money over time.
Insulation keeps the space cooler in summer and warmer in winter, making it comfortable no matter the season. Common materials include fibreglass or foam boards for insulation, and wood or plasterboard for the inside finish.
You can do this yourself if you’re confident, or you might prefer to have a professional handle it.
If you choose a Platinum building, we can handle the insulation and lining for you. It might feel like a luxury, but you’ll appreciate it during both hot summers and cold winters. Contact us for a free quote.

Can I Have Different Paint Finish On My New Building?
We provide a protective treatment on all our buildings, but why not consider painting with Sadolin (Diamond Buildings) or Valtti (Platinum Buildings) paint stains? Both are available in various colours, so you can find one.
All our buildings come with a protective treatment, but you can also choose to paint yours with Sadolin for Diamond Buildings or Valtti for Platinum Buildings. Both brands offer a range of colours, so you can pick one that fits your style.

How Long Will My New Building Last
The durability depends on several factors, including the quality of materials used, the level of maintenance, and exposure to environmental elements.
Proper care and regular maintenance can extend its lifespan, while harsh weather conditions and neglect may shorten it. Ensuring that the structure is well-built and using high-quality materials can also contribute to its longevity.
Regular inspections and prompt repairs as needed will help to prolong the life of your summer room. Pressure-treated timber is also a good option to choose.
You can see some guidelines on
this page.
