  • Finest selection of buildings

    With over thirty years experience in the garden & leisure building industry we can easily spot the difference between a good quality building and an exceptional one and we positively refuse to lower our standards. You can find cheaper buildings but you won't find better.

    All of our partners have been carefully chosen to offer the finest selection of buildings, with the best after-sales service, at the very best prices.

  • Comprehensive display site

    Conveniently located just off the M25, we are proud to invite you to view our extensive display of timber buildings from our Humber, Diamond and Trentan ranges as well as a selection of our high security metal SafeStore range.

    Our display site is unmanned so you can browse at your leisure without worrying about any high pressure salesmen pouncing on you (not that we would employ them in any case!)

  • Full installation service included

    Our full range of timber sheds & workshops will be installed free of charge at the time of delivery providing there is a suitable base. And if there isn't, don't worry, we can build that for you too for a small extra charge.

    Uniquely we can even install our range of metal & concrete sheds. We make a small extra charge for this service but, unless you're a DIY fanatic, it is something of a bargain!

  • Beware of 'next day delivery'!

    Some companies stockpile buildings outside which can often result in weather and storage damage. Each and every one of our timber buildings is individually constructed by craftsmen in our UK factories and delivered direct to your garden using our own vehicles.

    Doing things the right way takes slighly longer, of course, but isn't it worth the wait to get a building which will last?

  • Design your dream building!

    No two gardens are the same so why restrict the building that sits within? Every timber building leaving our UK factories has been individually designed for you. This may seem like a minor difference when comparing us to our production line rivals but it is actually quite a significant one.

    We're not just talking about a wider door or moving a window: every aspect is fully customisable to your precise requirements. Take a look at our gallery for some examples!

  • Base construction service

    We offer a full base construction service (cost-effective timber subframe, concrete or slab options) to most areas. This is an oft overlooked service which we are proud to offer alongside another important service: site clearance and the removal of existing timber and concrete buildings (even those with Asbestos roofs)

    We can also undertake many other landscaping projects - fencing, decking, etc. - within 60 miles of our office.

How Do I Maintain My New Garden Building ?

  • To maintain the quality and appearance of your building we recommend that you retreat any exterior wooden parts within 6 months of installation, and then annually after that. We recommend using Cuprinol 5-Year Woodstain which is available in a range of colours.
  • Regularly oil any moving parts such as locks and door or opening window hinges.
  • Keep an eye on the condition of the roofing felt. If it starts to deteriorate, replace it with a good quality replacement - if water starts to seep into the roof, this is the beginning of the end for your building.

If you are in any doubt, or would like any advice, please telephone, CONTACT FORM, or visit our on-line customer support area for further assistance.
