Erecting the Walls

A level floor is one of the most important aspects of assembly.

Adding the Gable Ends

Attaching the Overhang Assembly

This photograph shows an overhang assembly for a cabana with a recessed front wall. On the back wall, (and on structures without a recessed front wall), the overhang assembly is attached directly to the top of the wall.

Attaching the Overhang Assembly

This pool cabana is shown with optional copper-clad soffit, end caps and drip edge.

Dropping in the Ridge Beam

Note the matching slots on the ridge beam to assist in the placement of the rafters.

Laying in the Rafters

The rafter are simply laid into place, pulled up tight against the ridge beam and fastened. Note the first 8" of the roof sheathing attached to the overhang that will help hold the remaining roof sheathing.

Applying Roof Sheathing

The roof sheathing is lain on the roof. The overhang assembly provides a lip that holds the plywood sheets on the roof. If there is an optional dormer, the sheathing is cut out around the dormer framing.

Installing the Dormer

The roof is shingled to the bottom of the optional dormer and the dormer is attached to the roof.

Adding the Overhang Supports

The overhang supports are added between the top of the wall and rafters (only required on pool cabanas and pool houses with additional front overhang).

Final Finishing

The soffit and fascia is applied to the gable ends and the trim, overhang decking, and corner caps installed. The doors, windows and other options are all pre-assembled and/or pre-hung and need only be fastened into their respective openings.
