Coloured painted finish
A comprehensive paint system is applied prior to your building leaving the factory. The paint system comprises of an initial undercoat and a further top coat of your chosen colour.

Your building can be internally lined with U-foil insulation to the walls and ceiling, covered with one of the below options:

– 12mm redwood tongue & groove matchboard
– 9mm painted MDF moisture resistant tongue and groove board (available in Ghost White, Soft White, Vintage White and Smoke White)

40mm solid board cavity insulation can be fitted as an alternative to U-foil insulation.

Add a set of pressure treated floor bearers
Floor bearers are 45x45mm pressure treated lengths of timber which run in an opposite direction to the floor joists, making a crisscross formation. By taking away direct contact from the base, they allow air circulation and ventilation.

Upgrade to a heavy duty redwood floor
Upgrade to a heavy duty 19mm redwood floor from the standard 13mm redwood floor boards. If your building has pressure treated cladding, the heavy duty floor will be 19mm pressure treated redwood.

Laminate flooring
Add premium, hard wearing laminate flooring to your building, with a wide range of styles to choose from.

Engineered oak flooring
Add engineered oak flooring to your building – a floor covering consisting of a solid wood top layer with a plywood base construction. Engineered wood flooring is constructed in a way that it provides better stability and resistance to variations in temperature and moisture, whilst giving the appearance of solid wood.
