Description

The 8 x 8 Helios Summerhouse with its curved roof is an elegant and contemporary design from Mercia, one of the UK's leading manufacturers of wooden garden buildings.

The 8 x 8 Mercia Helios Summerhouse is perfect for those who want a summerhouse in a stunning modern design, that is sure to bring any garden into the 21st century. The curved tongue and groove roof promotes water runoff but also adds to the elegance of the summerhouse. With the doors flung open it's perfect for relaxing during the summer months and with the summerhouse doors secured it's ideal for storage throughout the British winter. This makes this summerhouse a welcome addition to your garden all year round!

Walls - The walls of the summerhouse are constructed from high quality timber. It uses specially designed tongue and groove cladding to give you a summerhouse that is not just durable but also a summerhouse that looks great in your garden. Also our planed tongue and groove shiplap cladding design closes the pores and together with its curved profile promotes the run off of water making the summerhouse more water resistant.

Doors - The summerhouse doors are half styrene glazed and as with the walls are constructed from high quality tongue and groove cladding.

Roof and Floor - The curved roof of the summerhouse is constructed from Tongue and Groove, this promotes water runoff and is a great feature. The floor of the summerhouse is constructed from high quality tongue and groove cladding, this makes summerhouse more water resistant. The summerhouse floor also comes with high quality floor joists giving the summerhouse a solid sturdy feel and greater load capacity.

Windows - All summerhouse windows are glazed with environmentally friendly styrene which is a safer alternative to traditional glass, this allows plenty of light to flood into the summerhouse.

Sustainable Timber - Mercia summerhouses are made using only ethically sourced timber and are all made here in the UK by our highly skilled team.

Full assembly instructions are provided with the summerhouse and with all the fittings in the box as standard you will be amazed at how simple your summerhouse is to install.

Treatment – Eco Friendly Dip-Treated Base Coat

This garden building is supplied with a water-based dip-treated base coat, designed to provide short-term protection during transport and installation.  The treatment uses a modern, non-toxic formula with added wax to help repel moisture. It is suitable for family gardens, including those with children and pets. The base is ready for you to apply your own high-quality timber preservative after installation.

Important: This dip treatment is a preparatory base coat only. We recommend applying a suitable timber preservative immediately after assembly and annually thereafter to maintain protection and validate the manufacturer’s guarantee.

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.

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.

"Very pleased with the item and the service: Just to say that really - we service we received from Elbec was exemplary. Our summer house was delivered promptly on the date arranged, and a faulty lock was replaced without any fuss. We are very pleased with the summer house (10x8 version) which looks attractive and has plenty of space for sitting and for our garden furniture. Thanks for a great result."

"Great Product and Service: Received the Summer house last week. Good service, very nice and helpful delivery man. The house was put up on Sunday, instructions very easy to follow, everything was in order except the bar to the lock was faulty but we found a replacement. Have put a nice Cedar Red wood preserve on and it looks lovely, just like the photo on the internet. Overall an excellent service and I would recommend your company and would happily buy from you again. ann"
