FAQs
Are the timber components pressure treated?
Yes. All structural timber is fully pressure treated to protect against rot, moisture, and insect damage, helping ensure long-term durability outdoors. Roofing treatment depends on the roof type selected.
What are Katepal brown shingles made from?
Katepal shingles are manufactured using SBS-modified bitumen, which provides excellent flexibility, tear resistance, and performance in varying weather conditions.
Is the Katepal brown shingle apex gazebo weatherproof?
When installed with a waterproof membrane and maintained using Osmo Oil, the gazebo provides reliable protection against rain and general outdoor exposure.
What does “with overhang” mean?
An overhang means the roof extends beyond the main frame, offering extra shelter from rain and sun. This helps keep seating areas drier and provides added shade where it’s most useful.
What’s the difference between an apex gazebo and a 4 pitch gazebo?
An apex gazebo features two sloping roof sides that meet at a central ridge, while a 4 pitch gazebo has four roof panels that meet at a single point, forming a pyramid-style roof.
Do you offer bespoke gazebo sizes?
Yes. We can manufacture bespoke gazebos to suit your exact space and requirements. Simply contact our sales team for a tailored quote.
Can I install this gazebo without planning permission?
In many cases, planning permission isn’t required if the structure meets permitted development guidelines. We recommend checking with your local council to confirm before installation.
Installation
Does the gazebo arrive fully assembled?
No. The gazebo is supplied in kit form to allow for easier delivery and handling. Clear, step-by-step instructions are included to guide you through the installation process.
Are all fixings included?
Yes. All necessary fixings are supplied with the gazebo kit, so you won’t need to purchase additional hardware.
Can I install the gazebo myself?
Yes. Many customers successfully install the gazebo themselves. However, due to its size and weight, having at least two people or using a professional installer is recommended.
Aftercare and Maintenance
Can I paint or stain the gazebo?
Yes. You can apply water-based paints or stains once the timber is fully dry. Applying UV protection before painting is recommended to help preserve colour and finish.
How often does the gazebo need maintenance?
We recommend treating the timber every six months with Osmo Oil and checking periodically for dirt build-up to keep the structure in excellent condition.
How long will the gazebo last?
With correct installation and regular maintenance, the gazebo can last between 10 and 20 years.

Does the gazebo need to be fixed to the ground?
