Platinum Winchester Summer Rooms

The garden is no longer referred to simply as ‘outside’. It is now an integral part of the living space; a place for you to relax and unwind or, increasingly, a place for you to work in a peaceful and tranquil environment.

The Platinum Winchester Bespoke Garden Studio fulfils all of the requirements of modern contemporary living; a practical and useful space with a stylish yet traditional appearance.

The sturdy frame and maintenance free Onduline roof covering ensure a long-life for your building whilst your choice of three different cladding finishes and free-range with the positioning of the Georgian doors and windows ensure a building which fulfils your requirements: a fully bespoke building at an ‘off the peg’ price.

These summer buildings are some of the best available. So before choosing a new one for your garden you need to check out the specifications beforehand. In particular, the type of timber it is made from, whether any OSB board is used, and the general build quality. Check the competition out against the spec on our buildings.

Don’t Buy On Price Alone

You will be amazed about the high specifications and these Winchester buildings are unbeatable for value. They are more expensive than the general ‘run of the mill’ buildings available but they are NEVER made down to a price. Don’t settle for second best.

Examine The Quality

It’s great advice to view beforehand and by doing so you can be sure of the quality. You can be the judge and decide whether the higher price is worth paying. Can that building you are looking at on the ‘web’ be viewed beforehand? And if not – WHY not?

Free Assembly

Besides the great quality of the Winchester apex buildings, free installation is included as standard. Which all adds up to the overall value of them. And it’s always worth checking out customer’s feedback to see what they say.
Then how about our insulation package? Fitted for you this is the ideal solution & enables you to use your new building all year round. See How Affordable This Is ABOVE in order form..

Click for Colour Sheds Personalise your building in a range of colours. Natural features of the wood such as grain, knows and fixings may still be visible. Building will still be pressure treated ensuring a very long life for your new building.
Don’t Buy On Price Alone! – These buildings are exceptional value for money but no corners are cut in production. These Platinum units are NEVER made down to a price so be very wary of other products which seem especially cheap!.

These are estimated delivery times and presume that your base is in situ and all required admin has been completed (site survey forms returned, etc.) The quoted times cannot be guaranteed and may vary depending upon your exact location as well as the availability of staff and raw materials. The times quoted do not make allowance for any Christmas closedowns. Please check at time of ordering if timing is crucial. Please also be aware - if requesting additional services such as base construction or building removal - that these may be longer than the quoted delivery time for the building itself and this may impact the overall timeframe.
The price for the building includes free delivery and installation within the areas shown but this is dependant upon a suitable level and accessible base being available. If access is through the property or if there are height restrictions or tight corners which demand the panels be made in smaller sections then there will be an extra cost of £180. Likewise a charge of £180 is applicable if there is no direct parking outside the property eg if a third person has to be sent to move the vehicle to another location and sit with it whilst installation works are underway. Red route deliveries may not be possible so please inquire with office with photos etc.

FAQs for Summer Houses

No results!
  • Can you build your own summerhouse?
    Putting together the smaller buildings is quite straightforward, especially if you have a helping hand to shift the panels as you fasten them in place.

    Still, take your time and make sure every step is done right, especially when it comes to the roof and felting. A small mistake could let water sneak in and ruin your belongings, which is the last thing you want.

    Luckily, 1st Choice offers free installation as part of the package. This not only saves you the heavy lifting but also ensures your summer building is expertly assembled to stand the test of time.

    However, as standard, 1st Choice includes free installation of the summer building, including roof felting. This saves you a lot of hard work and ensures the building is correctly constructed and protected from the weather, helping it last a long time.
