Foundations
A crucial part of achieving longevity and getting the most out of our new pod is establishing a solid foundation. An inadequate foundation can lead to structural issues, potentially causing cracks in the pod. Uneven placement of the pod may alter its geometric shape, resulting in twisting of doors and windows, as well as the formation of gaps. In this section, we'll delve into the essential considerations for the base and access to the sides of your pod, guiding you through the process of creating the perfect foundation for your outdoor space.
Access for Installation & Maintenance
For seamless installation and maintenance of our pods, access to all four sides is essential. We recommend allowing approximately 300mm (about 12 inches) of clearance around each side of the pod. However, allowing more space should never be overlooked.
In instances where the pod is positioned in a tight corner or a confined space, it's important to consider the potential challenges this may pose for pod maintenance. Restricted access can hinder routine visual inspections, which are typically recommended every six months. This regular check-up is crucial to identify and address any issues promptly, preventing them from escalating into more significant problems. Therefore, when placing the pod in a snug location, please be mindful of the potential maintenance difficulties it may entail.
Base
The pod's foundation is the bedrock upon which your outdoor relaxation retreat will stand. To maintain the pod's structural integrity and prevent warping over time, it's imperative that all of our pods are fitted on a level and sturdy surface. We do not recommend installing any of our pods on uneven ground, grass, or generally unsuitable surfaces. Instead, we advocate for the ideal base, which includes options such as concrete, tarmac, patio stones, or even a structurally sound patio decking.
To ensure proper weight distribution and stability, it is crucial that the full, complete base is in contact with the ground.
It's crucial to avoid any substantial depressions or gullies on the base surface. A depression of more than 3/4 of an inch (20mm) at any point across the base can lead to undesirable consequences, such as the pod's floor being pushed down or bowed up in the middle. This not only poses structural issues but may also hinder you or your clients enjoyment of the pod.
An inadequate base for any pods can result in gaps forming. Gaps may develop in the pod's doors or walls. These gaps can have several consequences, including:
- Reduced Insulation: Gaps in the structure compromise the insulation of the pod, making it less energy-efficient and potentially leading to temperature fluctuations inside.
- Pest Intrusion: Openings can allow pests to enter the pod, which could create hygiene and maintenance issues.
- Water Ingress: Gaps may permit water to seep into the pod, potentially causing damage to the interior and its contents.
- Aesthetic Deterioration: Uneven gaps can mar the pod's appearance and affect its overall aesthetics.
It's essential to ensure that the pod is placed on a level and appropriate foundation to prevent these issues.
Note:
If our recommendations for building / choosing a suitable base are not adhered to, the warranty of the pod will be nulled!
How to Verify Your Pod Base
Checking the solidity and levelness of your pod base is crucial to ensure a flawless installation and prolonged usage. You can follow these simple steps to confirm its suitability:
- Use a level, a straight piece of material, alongside a spirit level to check for any rocking or depressions exceeding 3/4 of an inch (20mm).
- For added peace of mind, consider consulting a local builder or landscaper to confirm that the surface is level, ensuring a solid foundation for your outdoor pod.
Get Our Opinion
If you have any doubts or questions about the surface where your pod will be installed, please reach out to us. We are dedicated to providing you with peace of mind and expert assistance throughout the process.
To facilitate a comprehensive assessment of your pod base, we invite you to share images via email to sales@homelivingluxury.com. Please include the following details in your email, which will help us evaluate your situation accurately and efficiently:
- Images: Attach 3-5 images of your preferred pod base. This visual information is crucial for our assessment.
- Additional Information: If there are any specific details or noteworthy aspects related to your base, please provide them in the email. This may include any unusual features or conditions.
- Contact Number: Include your preferred contact number, allowing us to reach out to you promptly.
- Pod Type/Model: Kindly, mention the pod type, model and size you are interested in. This will help us tailor our guidance to your specific needs.

Electrical
Electrical Guide for Your Pod
Before placing an order for one of our pods, it's essential to consider how you'll provide electricity inside your pod. This consideration is crucial for ensuring your pod's functionality.
Power Supply
The electrical supply for our pods is highly dependent on the intended usage of the pod. Specific electrical requirements may vary from project to project. For example, if your pod is designated as an outdoor office with a limited number of double sockets and a few lights, a 20 Amp supply may suffice. On the other hand, if your pod is equipped with multiple sockets, interior and exterior lighting, a fridge, and cooking appliances, the electrical demand will be significantly higher. In such cases, a 63 Amp supply might be necessary. Please note that these are general guidelines, and once we have a clear understanding of your pod's purpose, we can provide precise information regarding the electrical requirements.
Our in-house electrician will perform detailed calculations, taking into account load, resistance, cable size, trip times, and other essential factors. We will provide you with precise and tailored electrical information specific to your pod's intended usage.
Connection Type
There are two main types of electrical connections for our pods. The first type, pictured on the left, features an external fuseboard (IP55) fixed to the bottom of the cabin. The second type, shown on the right, includes a commando socket with a main RCD. This configuration allows for an internal fuseboard. Both setups are designed to suit the specific pod and its unique requirements. Just like the electrical supply, we will provide concise information on the most suitable connection type once we understand the nature of your project.
Qualified Electrical Installation
It is imperative to entrust this task to a qualified electrician who is well-versed in adhering to BS 7671 regulations. This guide outlines the essential knowledge to make your experience both enjoyable and safe.
- Qualified Electrician: All electrical connections for your new pod must be carried out by a qualified electrician. The installation must conform to BS 7671 regulations to ensure your safety.
- Electrical Certification: Obtain a comprehensive electrical certification from your qualified electrician to ensure that your pod's electrical system complies with safety and regulatory standards. This certification provides peace of mind regarding the safety and functionality of your electrical setup.
- Cable Routing: Ensure that all electrical cables are routed and secured properly to prevent any damage during installation or use.
- Emergency Shutdown: Consider adding an emergency shutdown switch for added safety in case of any electrical issues - recommended for commercial properties.
- Earth Bonding: Make sure that your pod is properly earthed to protect against electrical faults. Your electrician will provide expert assistance with this.
- Electrical Current Assessment:If you are setting up your pod in a commercial property, consult with your electrician to assess whether the property's existing electrical infrastructure can safely accommodate the required electrical current. This evaluation ensures that your pod's electrical demands are in line with the property's capacity, preventing overloads or disruptions to your electrical supply.
By following these guidelines, you can confidently proceed with the electrical setup of your pod. Should you have any specific questions or require further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Plumbing
Plumbing Requirements
While plumbing is not a fundamental necessity for our pods, we understand that certain projects may require water connections. Whether your pod is delivered fully assembled or in modular components, we've simplified the plumbing process to make it convenient for you.
Here's how it works: Upon discussing your specific project requirements and layout preferences, we collaborate closely with you to create scaled 2D drawings of the pod's interior. These drawings are crucial in determining the precise locations for plumbing access points.
Once these drawings are finalised and approved by you, we ensure that all necessary plumbing cutouts and access points are readily incorporated into the pod's design. This meticulous planning means that when your plumber arrives, the pod is already prepared for the water connections.
Plumbing Placement and Preparation
Our plumbing process is accurately planned, ensuring that the necessary cutouts for toilets, sinks, and/or showers are precisely located within the pod's interior. These cutouts are strategically positioned based on the 2D drawings we create in collaboration with you. This pre-planning guarantees that the pod is fully prepared for your plumber's subsequent work.
The water mains can typically be brought into the pod from underneath, as they are often embedded in the ground. However, it's essential to note that alternative plumbing arrangements, such as above-ground connections, are also feasible. The specific method chosen depends on the nature of your project and your property's infrastructure.
Prior to confirming your order, we engage in comprehensive discussions to determine the most suitable plumbing approach. We calculate and plan for all plumbing components, taking into account your specific requirements and the logistical considerations of your site. This proactive approach allows us to provide you with a tailored plumbing solution, ensuring that your pod is accessible for the plumber to complete the remaining works effortlessly.

In CNC machining, the desired cuts and operations are programmed into a computer, and this program is then executed by the corresponding machinery. This automation allows for highly precise and repetitive manufacturing processes with minimal human intervention.
- We use CNC machining for its ability to pre-program the speed and position of machine tool functions, making it ideal for producing components with complex designs and demanding specifications.
- By pre-programming the machining processes, we can ensure that every detail of our pods and cabins is executed with the highest level of accuracy. With CNC machining as an integral part of our manufacturing process, we can confidently offer our customers the finest bespoke living spaces, tailored to their exact specifications.
- High Performance Cutting Machines
- At the onset of the production process, we employ cutting-edge high-precision electric chop saws and cutting machines. These state-of-the-art machines are a substantial investment. The use of these advanced cutting machines not only reduces the margin of error but also significantly increases our overall efficiency.
- Furthermore, these cutting machines are designed to be environmentally friendly, consuming considerably less electricity compared to less advanced models. This aligns with our ongoing efforts to promote eco-conscious practices and reduce our environmental footprint.
- Precision with Automatic Spray Painting
- As we progress through the production process, we focus on the final touches, and that's where our automatic spray painting machine steps in. This cutting-edge equipment adds an artistic touch to your creation, ensuring that every detail is just right. It's like the artist's brush, but in this case, it's a technological masterpiece.
- This impressive marvel ensures that environmentally friendly paints and stains are expertly applied with exceptional precision. It operates efficiently, delivering a consistent and even coat of paint that enhances the overall finish of your project. Whether you choose a wood stain that highlights the natural texture or a paint that offers intense colour, our state-of-the-art spray technology ensures a professional and enduring finish that not only looks stunning but is also eco-conscious.
- The decision between using a water-based wood stain or paint is yours to make. Both options provide UV protection, with stains showcasing the wood's texture and a wide range of colour choices, while paint offers an intense hue but covers the grain and texture. Regardless of your choice, our professional wood protection treatments extend your project's lifetime, safeguarding it against moisture, fungi, and other elements. Thanks to our automatic spray painting machine, your project is not just beautifully crafted but also built to stand the test of time.
- Precise Assembly
- As we near the completion of your project, the assembly phase becomes the central hub where all the painstakingly crafted components converge. During this stage, our skilled artisans seamlessly integrate windows into precisely designed frames, expertly attach side panels, and meticulously fit every element to guarantee a secure and accurate assembly. This is where the various parts of your project come together.
- Our modular approach to assembly ensures an efficient and harmonious process. Each component is designed and manufactured to seamlessly slot into place, minimising room for error and guaranteeing that your project aligns with the exact specifications of each individual project.
- Finishing Touches & Quality Assurance
- As we reach the culmination of the fabrication process, we encounter the most time-consuming phase. After each project makes its journey along the production line, it undergoes a meticulous inspection to ensure every aspect of the product meets our rigorous standards. These end-of-line inspections are a fundamental part of our quality control procedures, taking place at the final stages of production. Our aim is to address any potential quality or safety concerns before your bespoke creation leaves our facility.
- During this rigorous testing and assurance process, we scrutinise the pod's construction and assembly to verify that they align with our exacting standards. If, by any chance, we identify any issues with the goods, they are promptly rectified at this stage.
- Once the pod passes these quality control assessments and is verified, it marks the conclusion of our fabrication process. We are then well-prepared to move forward with delivering your tailored goods, a moment filled with excitement and anticipation.
- Our quality inspection system includes end-of-line testing, which plays a pivotal role in accurately evaluating the properties of every manufactured component and determining if the product exhibits any defects.
- This system conducts pass-or-fail checks, providing formal confirmation that each component meets its designated specifications. These inspections occur throughout the production process, and our commitment to quality and safety ensures that the pods and goods we deliver are of the highest standard.
Stage 3: Modular Components for Easy On-Site Assembly
The assembly of our pods is designed for maximum convenience and efficiency, ensuring that your project comes together seamlessly. These modular components are pivotal in simplifying the on-site assembly process. For our larger pods, which cannot be transported as complete structures due to size constraints, this modular approach becomes even more essential. It allows us to ensure that your project can be assembled with relative ease, always with a strong recommendation to engage qualified tradesmen for this phase.
When it comes to on-site assembly, the main goal is to achieve a balance between quality and ease of installation. This is where the modular design truly shines. Walls and roofs, for most of our products, are joined together at the sides, forming a coherent structure that matches the precise specifications of your unique project. These components are fabricated with the same precision and care as the rest of the process, ensuring that every detail aligns with your vision. Whether your project is compact or expansive, the modular components guarantee a smooth assembly process.
Stage 4: Safely Secured for Transit
We work exclusively with trusted and verified couriers who understand the importance of handling and shipping our pods with the utmost care and attention to detail.
All our projects, whether pre-assembled or delivered in modular components, undergo rigorous fastening and secure positioning measures. Prior to leaving our warehouse, each project is subjected to a thorough checklist, assuring its safe and intact transportation.
After our fabrication timeframe of 15-20 working days, we allow for a delivery window of up to 5 working days for all our pods. This timeframe guarantees that your project reaches you in excellent condition, with ample time for secure transportation. The delivery phase is the final step in bringing your vision to life, and we ensure that it meets our high standards of quality and precision.

Making Changes to Your Order
We understand that sometimes changes may be necessary to meet your specific requirements. You have a window of opportunity to make changes to your order, but it's important to act promptly to avoid any additional charges. Order fabrication typically commences 5-7 days after your order placement, which is why the following conditions apply to facilitate any changes:
- You can make changes to your order within 3 working days from the date of order placement without incurring any extra fees.
- It may be possible to make changes up to 5 working days after placing your order, but after the initial 3 working days, a "late amendment fee" may apply along with any additional charges resulting from the modifications.
- Please note that while we will do our absolute best to accommodate your requested changes, the final decision lies at the discretion of Home Living Luxury.
Our dedicated support team is here to assist you in this process, providing project insights to help streamline the changes effectively. Please contact us as soon as possible if you require any amendments to your order.
Pre-delivery Cancellations
Building on the information provided above, it's crucial to emphasise that our glamping pod fabrication typically commences 5-7 days after you place your order. Given this timeline, it becomes quite challenging for us to entertain pre-delivery order cancellations once your order is officially placed. Our pods are crafted to your precise specifications, which significantly limits the opportunity for returns or order amendments. Therefore, we strongly advise careful consideration before finalising your order.
If you ever find the need to make changes to your order, please contact us as soon as possible within the initial 3 working days from the date of order placement. During this timeframe, adjustments can be made without incurring additional fees. However, it's essential to clarify that the window for a full order cancellation is strictly 3 working days. If you choose to cancel your order within this period, a 5% cancellation fee will be retained by Home Living Luxury. For example, if your glamping pod order is valued at £10,000 and you request a full refund within the 3 working day period, we will issue the refund, deducting a 5% cancellation fee (£500). This policy specifically applies to products designed and crafted to your unique specifications, which explains its precise nature.
Please note that orders cannot be cancelled after the initial 3 full working days following the order placement. This policy is in place to ensure a streamlined and efficient process for all our valued customers.
Returns for Damaged Deliveries
Our returns policy accommodates orders that are received damaged by our courier. In such cases, please do not sign off on the delivery document and follow these steps:

This crucial step initiates the return process for damaged orders. The order will then be returned to the local depot, where further investigations and assessments will be conducted to address the issue. This helps ensure that any damage is properly documented and addressed in a timely manner.
- Document the damage: After refusing the delivery, it's crucial to thoroughly document the damage. Take clear and detailed photographs of both the damaged packaging and the product itself. These photos should offer a comprehensive view of the extent of the damage. This documentation will be invaluable in processing your repairs, replacement, or refund, and ensuring a swift resolution to the issue.
- Contact us immediately: Reach out to our support team within 24 hours of the delivery refusal. Provide us with the photos and a description of the damage, and we will initiate the return process.
At Home Living Luxury, your satisfaction is our top priority, and we want to ensure your glamping pod arrives in perfect condition. While we take extreme care in the packaging and transportation of our pods to prevent any issues, we understand that unforeseen circumstances can sometimes occur. In the rare event that you notice any damage during the delivery process, our return policy is designed to protect you, our valued customer.
Once a ticket has been raised, we will conduct thorough investigations and assessments to address the issue. This helps ensure that any damage is properly documented and resolved in a timely manner.
In the unfortunate event that a resolution cannot be reached through repairs or replacement, we offer a full refund. Please note that in such cases, the 5% cancellation fee will not apply, ensuring you are compensated fairly.
Post-Delivery Returns
At Home Living Luxury, we place paramount importance on delivering high-quality glamping pods crafted to your exact specifications. While we strive to ensure that your order arrives in pristine condition, we recognise that there may be concerns or issues that arise post-delivery. It's essential to clarify our approach to post-delivery returns:
- Refunds for Non-Damaged Products: The bespoke nature of custom build orders means that we cannot provide refunds for products that have not been damaged during the delivery process. Each pod is designed to meet your unique needs, making it challenging to resell them to another customer.
- Installation and Final Location: Once your order has been received successfully, and there is no damage reported, we regret to inform you that we cannot accept refunds under any circumstances. This policy is in line with the custom nature of our products.
While we cannot offer refunds for non-damaged products, our dedicated support team is here to assist you with any concerns or inquiries you may have. We are committed to ensuring your experience with our glamping pods is as positive as possible.

Pod Essential FAQ's
What is the lead time on the pods?
For single pod projects, from order confirmation to arrival on site, typically ranges from 4 to 6 weeks.
For multi-pod projects, which often require more customisation and coordination, the timeline extends to approximately 6 to 10 weeks.
What foundation is required for the pods?
Recommended Base Types
We recommend setting your pod on concrete, tarmac. A level and secure base prevent issues like water ingress, pest intrusion, and aesthetic wear over time.
Why is a Solid Base Important?
A solid foundation is essential to ensure the longevity and stability of your pod. Setting the pod on an uneven or unstable base can cause structural issues, including door and window misalignments, gaps, and a decrease in insulation and water resistance.
Is electricity required?
Electrical needs vary depending on the pod’s intended use. For simple setups, a 20 Amp supply may suffice, while pods with more equipment may require up to 32 Amps. Consult with our team for specific guidance tailored to your pod’s setup.
Is plumbing required?
Plumbing isn’t necessary for all pods but can be added based on your preferences. If plumbing is needed, we collaborate to pre-plan access points for sinks, showers, or toilets. Our process ensures a smooth installation by preparing all cut-outs and access areas before delivery.
