FAQs – Wooden Apex Gazebo with Katepal Red Shingle Roof & Overhang
Product
Are the timber components pressure treated?
Yes. All structural timber components are fully pressure treated to help 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, giving them excellent flexibility, durability, and resistance to tearing in changing weather conditions.
Can this gazebo be made to bespoke sizes?
Yes. We can manufacture this gazebo to custom dimensions, allowing it to fit your garden layout perfectly. Our team can provide a tailored quotation based on your measurements.
Is the Katepal red shingle gazebo weather resistant?
Yes. When installed with a suitable waterproof membrane and maintained regularly using a quality wood treatment such as Osmo Oil, the gazebo provides reliable all-weather protection.
What does “with overhang” mean?
A gazebo with an overhang has roof sections that extend beyond the main frame. This adds extra shelter around the edges, helping protect furniture and seating from rain and sun.
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, creating 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, step-by-step instructions are included to support both DIY installation and professional fitting.
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 a UV-protective treatment beforehand is recommended to help preserve the timber.
What maintenance is recommended?
To maintain performance and appearance, 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.

How much does delivery cost?

Help with my new garage roof!
Trade Warehouse could not have been more helpful. They very patiently guided a roofing newbie through all of the stuff I would need to do the job and provided helpful tips along the way. It's rare to find a company offering such a fantastic level of customer service as standard. I would highly recommend them and will certainly use them again.

Garden Storage
My contractor (Charlie Keep) recommended you to me so I could order the materials online for delivery direct to my home. These were for a project to construct a Garden Storage Area. The materials were perfect and the whole process was simple and slick with materials delivered on time and very well packaged. Charlie has since completed the project & I am very happy with the outcome.
