Our exclusive Platinum range of buildings has always been hand-crafted using traditional tried and trusted designs and construction methods but, taking it’s visual cues from the past, the exquisite Platinum Portsmouth Traditional Apex Workshop is something that we are particularly proud to offer.
The many customers who have already taken delivery of one of these buildings also talk about how they are proud to own one. There must be something to it!
Constructed using a choice of three different top quality redwood claddings – the traditional style Weatherboard cladding being the most popular – this building boasts traditional style corrugated bitumen roof sheets, Georgian windows and ornate bacl door furniture with mortice lock.
Inspired by ages gone by, the Platinum Portsmouth Traditional Apex Workshop will evoke memories of your Grandfather’s shed at the bottom of his garden. If you are really looking to relive a memory we can even supply a range of good quality wood stains in a wide palette of traditional colours which you can apply to re-create almost any childhood memory
Our grandparents knew the meaning of something being made ‘right’ and took great delight in owning a traditional shed they could be proud of with these types of qualities. The Portsmouth building would be one they would enthuse about and would reflect the very high standards they would expect.
This meant no cheap OSB boards.These Portsmouth buildings are unbeatable for value. Check out the high spec on these buildings and you will be amazed.
They may seem more expensive than the ‘cheap and cheerful’ buildings available elsewhere but they are NEVER made down to a price. Don’t settle for second best.
