Looking for a solid garage that is built to last? At 1st Choice Leisure Buildings, our Lidget Compton prefabricated garage range combines reinforced concrete strength with modern manufacturing precision.
Our concrete garages are used not just for parking your vehicle but also as secure workshops and multipurpose spaces. With superb fire resistance and a 10-year transferable warranty that protects your investment (even if you move house), these prefab garages offer peace of mind and extremely reasonable pricing.
Our Lidget Compton prefab garages feature steel-reinforced concrete panels that create an almost impenetrable fortress for your vehicles and valuables. The solid construction makes break-ins virtually impossible without industrial equipment. This particular range of prefab garages offers real security, not just the illusion of it.
While timber deteriorates and metal corrodes over time, concrete maintains its structural integrity for decades without constant maintenance. Our prefabricated garage UK installations maintain structural integrity for decades without the constant maintenance of other materials. That means no annual treatments, rust protection, or pest control, just reliable performance, decade after decade.
The non-combustible nature of concrete provides superior fire protection that wood and metal simply can’t match. You can store fuel, oils, and workshop materials with absolute confidence, knowing your concrete garage won’t contribute to fire spread like other materials might.
Here’s what you won’t be doing with a concrete garage: repainting every few years, treating timber against rot, applying rust prevention, or calling pest control! Your time and money stay in your pocket while your garage continues doing its job.
A professionally installed concrete garage adds real value to your property investment. The permanent, high-quality appearance appeals to potential buyers and quite often returns more than the initial cost when you sell.
Concrete’s density provides excellent sound insulation, making concrete garages perfect for workshop activities without disturbing neighbours. You won’t have to tiptoe around noise complaints when indulging in your hobbies – just do as you please, whenever you please.
If you have multiple vehicles or extensive storage requirements, our double concrete garages provide generous space for two cars plus workshop areas, storage zones, or hobby spaces.
Need something special? At 1st Choice, each prefab garage can be customised to match your exact spec. You can choose from a wide range of upgrade options to create a space that works for you, including:
There are plenty of good reasons why Lidget Compton garages are so popular in the UK. Aside from the clean finish and solid feel, the engineering behind every panel, joint, and fitting is truly remarkable.
Unlike permanent structures, Lidget Compton are sectional garages that can be dismantled and reassembled if you move house. This unique feature, which is seldom found in garages, protects your investment and provides flexibility that traditional construction simply can’t match.
Every prefabricated garage includes high-strength concrete panels reinforced with steel for exceptional durability. The panel thickness and density exceed basic industry standards, resulting in decades of reliable service.
We fit premium Hörmann up-and-over doors as standard. These German-engineered systems provide an incredibly smooth operation, solid locking mechanisms, and long-term reliability.
Our extra-strong roofing systems handle everything the weather throws at them, from heavy snow loads to storm conditions. Whether you choose pent, apex, or mansard styling, the roofing components are engineered for decades of maintenance-free performance.
Concrete garages require proper foundations, and we can arrange professional base construction to exact specifications, ensuring perfect levelling and drainage that prevents issues like settling or water pooling.
Unlike some suppliers, Lidget Compton includes at least one window as standard, completely free of charge, so you get natural light without extra cost.
Don’t just consider today’s needs—try to think ahead. A slightly larger prefab garage now will save expensive modifications later. When choosing dimensions, you might also consider workshop space, storage requirements, and comfortable vehicle access.
Most concrete garages fall within permitted development rights, but checking with local authorities about planning permission prevents costly surprises. The permanent nature of concrete makes advance planning particularly important.
Delivery often requires good access for articulated lorries with forklifts. Site preparation may involve levelling, drainage improvements, and base construction. Be mindful of delivery preparation, but don’t worry too much about it: our team will assess basic requirements and provide clear guidance.
Yes, concrete costs more initially than many alternatives. But when you factor in the 10-year warranty, zero maintenance costs, potential property value increases – not to mention decades of potential reliable service – the true value of a prefab garage in the UK is quite obvious.
Aside from secure car parking, concrete garages are great as workshops, secure storage, hobby spaces, or even future conversion possibilities. Their strength and versatility justify the investment many times over, when you factor in the sheer length of time they will last.
By now, you will hopefully see why a concrete garage is such a smart investment. But why should you buy from us?

One of the most important features of concrete garages is that they’re built to last for decades with minimal wear and tear, thanks the inherent strength and resilience that concrete has to offer. With proper maintenance and professional installation, you can extend its lifespan even more.
It all depends on the location of your home and what you’re building. If you’re not sure, check in with local authorities to ensure compliance of the structure.
