About us

We are a REAL Company! Not to be confused with "Just Internet" Companies – You can visit us if you like, phone us or order online 100% securely!

We are Open:

UPDATE!!

We’ve bought EIGHT new vans and trucks! These shiny new vehicles are (mostly) custom designed to bring our products to you as securely as possible. Using a maximum size of 7.5 tonnes, we try to use as small a vehicle as possible to deliver to your kerbside, unlike some companies who use HGVs or even ask customers to pay more for the service of a smaller vehicle. At Dunster House, we deliver our products in our own vehicles, and know the best way to deliver your new Cabin, Workshed, Greenhouse, Windows & Doors, Climbing Frames, or anything else in our range, in the best condition ready for you to start your project.

The snap shot on the left is of the Dunster House team posing happily outside our Bedford factory, even if it was a bit of a chilly day. There’s me, Alex, right at the front (well, as a Company Director I deserve to get centre stage…) along with my brother Andy (my co-MD), and, of course, Dunster the Bear. The photo on the right shows one of the factories abroad.

We have a large display area at our factory in Bedford and at our NEW factory in North Lincolnshire where our full range of products is on show. You are welcome to come and view them at your leisure.
We also manufacture and supply uPVC windows and doors. Take a look at our website www.windowsanddoors.co.uk where you can receive a price in seconds and buy windows and doors with our unique online ordering programme.

Our Vehicles

Using our own growing fleet of delivery vehicles, we deliver our products throughout mainland England and Wales as well as most of Scotland. We cherish our fleet of brightly coloured vehicles like they might be our own children, which is why I felt compelled to give them names (and as you may well gather from most of these names I’m a bit of a Sci-Fi nut). We ensure that our vehicles are kept clean, sound and never want for so much as a new air freshener. All our vehicles are bought new or nearly new, serviced regularly and in the unlikely event that they do ever fire below capacity, our "fix it" reflexes waste no time getting them back to their expert best. "Why do I care?" we hear you ask. Well, by looking after our vans we know our vans will look after us and you. Old chestnuts like "Sorry pal, the van's broken down" are never justified and thanks to our vehicle vigilance Dunster House ensure such incidents are kept strictly to a blue-moon minimum.

About Our Designing and Prototyping

At Dunster House Ltd. we design all our own products in-house. This is our technical department where we have a team dedicated to designing and prototyping our products.

The process starts with computer aided design where products are carefully planned and technical drawings are created. Here are examples of CAD drawings for two of the products in our extensive range.

We then physically prototype our products by building them ourselves at our factory, before allowing them to go on sale. We don’t just rely on computer aided design. Prototyping in this way allows us to fine tune the products so that they are already right when you purchase them and our customers don’t end up being the guinea pigs.

Take a look at our Product Prototype Gallery.

We give photographic representations of our products, not just 3D images, so that you can see what you are getting.

About Our Log Cabins

We have 5 factories abroad. Here is a picture of one of them.

And here’s another one of our factories. This one has been purpose built recently to cope with demand.

Here is part of the inside of our factories, showing the manufacturing processes for producing our Log Cabins. Now there are not many other companies who show you the manufacturing process, we can because we actually make our products and don't just buy them in. These factories manufacture products ONLY for Dunster House, using our own unique designs.

A close up of the manufacturing process. We invest heavily in new machinery and equipment to ensure the high quality of our products is maintained.

Here are some of our freshly made Log Cabin Kits.

We have the biggest range of Log Cabins available in the UK with plenty of options so you can easily find something to suit you and your requirements.

This is our packing line where all our products are carefully packaged for delivery. This is an important part of the process as great care is taken to prevent damaging the goods.

We carry huge stocks of our log cabins, which are constantly being replenished so that you don’t get “old stock”. We very rarely need to make to order – this way you know you’re not paying for something that doesn’t exist.

BUY DIRECT!

Log Cabins are typically made from 2 types of softwood – Redwood (Pine) or Whitewood (Spruce). We make our log cabins using whitewood as despite being more expensive it is considered to be more stable against warps and splits than redwood.

All our Log Cabin floor bearers are not only pressure treated, but are up to 4 times larger than the size of some competitors. This all but eliminates bounce in the floor and prevents the cabin rotting or becoming insect infested from the ground up. A cabin without large pressure treated floor bearers will suffer significantly more in the medium to long term.

Windows & Doors

We make our own windows and doors to ensure they are of a consistent standard. We manufacture, in our factory in Bedford, England, domestic quality double glazed, toughened glass, sealed units to European Standard EN1279. We don’t supply a lower standard “shed-spec” sealed unit in our cabins, meaning you won’t get condensation between the panes of glass.

About Our Climbing Frames

All wood used to make our climbing frames is PRESSURE TREATED to protect against rot and insect damage. Here are some photos of our Pressure Treating Plant where we pressure treat our own timber to ensure the quality of the process and the end result.

Dunster House Ltd. is a family run Company and as a family we own the factories abroad especially to manufacture and supply products solely to Dunster House. You CANNOT buy our products from anyone else and we DO NOT buy products from anyone else.
