Why Others Tell us they Love the Vermont

The Vermont boasts a striking, contemporary design that really draws in any onlooker who enjoys the rich look of high-quality timber. The full length bi-fold doors are a very popular design choice on summerhouses, because they offer an easy way to open up the interior without taking up too much space. Along with two fixed side windows, they also let in plenty of light for a comfortable time occupying the summerhouse. The elegant wood finish provides the final touch to this stunning summerhouse, with the quality timber adding to its charm. Our customers often like to add their own personal touch by painting their summerhouses, and they look fantastic in any colour. Many manufacturers recommend that you use Protek paint, available from elbec in a wide variety of colours. By using Protek Royal Exterior, you can make the Vermont look exactly how you want it while adding extra protection to the timber. Whether you love bold, bright colours or a more natural wood finish, Protek has a colour to suit any taste.

Features

The Vermont has a number of features that make it a summerhouse of real quality. With 12mm shiplap tongue and groove cladding, its interlocking design ensures a robust, sturdy structure that is resistant to the elements. The Vermont boasts a 12mm tongue and groove floor too, which ensures a strong and stable base. This is perfect for supporting heavier items, if you had any concerns about adorning your summerhouse with larger items of furniture. The windows and doors are glazed with styrene, an environmentally friendly choice that is a shatterproof and safe alternative to traditional glass.

The bi-fold doors are lockable by an included key, giving extra peace of mind when leaving items in your summerhouse. The 12mm tongue and groove roof gives you the reassurance that the quality of this building is excellent. High quality mineral felt is supplied for the roof of your summerhouse, providing a further barrier to the elements. This also helps to prevent wood rot and weather damage. The Vermont comes with a 10 year anti-rot guarantee, so you can be sure you will be receiving a high quality summerhouse that will last. We’re pleased to offer the option of booking our dedicated professionals, who will assemble your summerhouse quickly and correctly. Alternatively, you can use the comprehensive instructions included with the Vermont and construct it yourself.

Additional Details about Your Order

All our summerhouses are supplied pre-treated with a base coat to both sides in a golden brown water based industrial product (colour can vary from the picture shown) for protection during manufacture and transit. You must apply a water based top coat of your choice in order to receive the full 10-year anti-rot guarantee. Many manufacturers recommend Protek wood treatment, available from elbec in a wide variety of different colours. This will protect the timber from weathering, making it last longer. The timber treatment will need to be repeated periodically in line with the manufacturer's instructions.

Booking Delivery

You will be required to book your delivery date at the time of placing your order (except for Metal Shed). Our 'Request a Delivery Date' service is available to the majority of areas and you'll find that the majority of the UK postcodes are FREE but some areas may incur a delivery surcharge and some postcodes are not covered at all. Select a 'requested delivery date' by entering your postcode in the 'Request a delivery date' section above. You will also be notified at this time if your area incurs a surcharge or delivery is not covered in your area.

Prior to Delivery

On the morning of your delivery date, you'll be sent an update by text with an estimated 2-hour delivery slot (this update can only be provided where a mobile number has been supplied on the billing address section at the time of checkout) together with a link to the manufacturer delivery portal where you'll be able to track your order.

Please note: Mercia Metal Sheds ONLY - your order is delivered by a courier you will not be notified prior to the delivery. If you are not in on the day of the delivery you will be carded and asked to contact the courier to arrange a new mutual delivery date. The estimated delivery lead time for Mercia's Metal sheds is identified on the product for the metal shed. Lead times are on working days (Monday - Friday) excludes Bank Holidays. These estimated lead times are provided by the manufacturer. Some remote areas will take a little longer.

Upon Delivery

Your order is delivered either kerbside or driveway and will be delivered on either a 3.5T, 7.5T or 18T Lorry. Unfortunately due to health and safety and insurance liabilities the driver will not be able to take your goods around to the back of your property but may upon request place the product at the side of the house if there are no access or restriction issues. We would not risk damaging your property whilst delivering a product to an unsafe location. Unfortunately, we will not be able to go through your property.

We would recommend against arranging for a third party to install the building before it's been delivered and checked that all parts are present, as we cannot be held liable for any third-party costs.

Orders with Assembly 

The lead time for our installation option is around 7 Weeks from the date of order. With the installation option, the majority of orders will have their delivery and installation on separate days; there will be a small number of orders which will have delivery and installation on the same day. You will be advised by the manufacturer's installation team which category your order falls into.

Depending on the installation option for your order, you will be contacted within the delivery timescale and given a date for either delivery/assembly on the same date or a separate date for delivery and assembly.
