Garden Sheds
Our garden sheds are crafted using premium 19mm-25mm shiplap cladding and heavy-duty Canadian CLS frames for exceptional durability. Each shed includes 4ft wide double doors, fixed windows with silicone seals, and polyester roofing felt. The tongue-and-groove timber floor with 12-inch joists ensures stability, while all buildings come pre-treated for longevity. Customers can choose from multiple sizes or request bespoke dimensions to suit their outdoor space requirements.
Summer Houses
Summer houses provide versatile garden spaces for relaxation or entertainment. Constructed with the same high-quality materials as our sheds, these structures feature insulated walls and optional opening windows for year-round use. Available in apex or pent roof styles, they come in standard sizes ranging from 10x6ft to 24x10ft, with custom designs available upon request. All summer houses include free delivery and professional on-site erection within our coverage area.
Workshops
Our workshops are designed for practicality and durability, featuring reinforced 64x38mm CLS frames and multiple window options for natural light. The standard specification includes 3-4 double-glazed fixed windows, heavy-duty flooring, and a choice of cladding types. Sizes range from 10x6ft to 24x10ft, with bespoke dimensions available. These buildings are ideal for DIY projects, storage, or home businesses requiring a dedicated workspace.
Play Houses
Play houses offer safe, imaginative spaces for children, built with child-friendly rounded edges and non-toxic treatments. Available in themed designs like cottages or castles, they feature safety glass windows and secure door locks. Standard sizes start at 6x6ft, with larger options up to 10x8ft. All playhouses include free delivery and installation, with optional extras like slides or climbing frames available for enhanced play value.

Constructed using 22mm loglap or 25mm shiplap cladding, they feature reinforced frames and heavy-duty roofing felt.
