Perhaps what is most important to us is what makes the house a 'HOME'. For many it is the interior with bespoke bathrooms and kitchens but equally thare is the space outisde.... If you are lucky enough to have a garden then a greenhouse or garden room / workshop / shed seperate from the main house is a bonus. 

They also however need tending, maintaining and looking after and we have many solutions to help.

A simple 6ft wide greenhouse 8 ft long can give many, many years service but then what? 

discard and replace...OR perhaps restore it back again.

Sometimes the simplest idea of restoration can deliver an original idea back again. Often far cheaper than a replacement it will once agin sit on the site originally intended with no additional cost for removal / disposal and replacament . Only damaged or rotted material is disposed of so most of the structure is retained so thereby having less impact on the environament.  Our model is to seek to retain where possible....

         But what if you do not have such a structure, maybe you are looking to create a garden space for growing or relaxation.

If you are looking for a new building for the garden. something that little bit special

Here a new 10 by 8 Dwarf wall greenhouse to replace one that had rotted away to leave just the wall. This has many features such as fold down benches, a built in water tank and automatic roof vents.

A delightful garden room and summerhouse, This created from a garden shed....

Or just something a little bit special...created from an idea the client saw on a biscuit tin....this delighful lean to greenhouse was styled to match the houses character and offered some extra growing space in a very small garden where a seperate structure could not be built.

Maybe you are looking to repair and restore that beautiful classic structure in your garden that has served so faithfully

Here a 1980s C H Whitehouse custom built lean-to greenhouse that needed major restoration work after earlier failed repairs

Or restore that cherished little gem in the garden back to new again

      We can design and build most timber garden structures to suit your requirements and needs and of course if you have an existing garden structure that needs restoration then we may well be able to help restore it back again. 

Please note.​

      Unfortunately however we do not work on conservatories or similar structures built as extra living spaces essentially attached to the main house. Ours work is very much focused on garden structures and greenhouses

.

     We do not offer a service to erect newly purchased (whether new or second hand) structures of any type, or provide a service to create foundations or bases for such structures. We also do not relocate garden structures

       We also do not produce or sell component parts / spares for garden structures or offer a glazing replacement service for broken glass.

       Since the pandemic we do get inquiries to create garden offices, Our advise however is to contact a speialised contractor who can create a suitable all season and all year round comfortable environment to work in. These companies  can provide the correct design consideration for the conditions needed to work in. Plus offer advise to support and protect the necesary important electrical equipmet so key in today home office.

Perhaps as in this build you know eaxactly what you want and are looking for someone to build it for you. Then again we can help

This unique greenhouse and tool store was made to a clients exacting plans and its unique hieght was intended for over wintering some tall shrubs.

A beatiful and perfectly formed Alton Amateur from the 1990 that has been restored to sit once again on a very unique (and steep) garden. The glass is so clean it almost looks as if it isn't there.

We completed this restoration of a very rare 'Vinery' in a London Suburb. It was just a wonderful chance to see what can be achieved in a limited space. The original desert grape vine is still growing, now nearly 100 years old. Located on a high garden wall its charm and character was stunning.

We were very excited to see that our 'Gothic greenhouse' was featured in the glossy lifestyle magazine 'PUREWOW' in a section in March 2017 entitled 'Potting rooms are so in this spring' 

The caption attached to the image read

our thanks to Grace Beauley Hunt the writer, to 'Foundandfavour' on instagram who took the photo and to 'Purewow.com' for publishing it.

You can regularly see this buildings as part of the Petworth Open Garden Scheme. Described by Clara who visited the garden 

     'I found my perfect tiny greenhouse'

Even a humble log store can be made to look special. The owner was looking for a unique building that would sit comfortably beside an old timber granary in their lovelly garden.

Our passion for timber garden structures was instilled in us from an early age by our grandparents and parents. The garden was a sanctuary where we could play and explore. within the building, whether that be a shed, greenhouse or summerhouse were places where things happened, items were made and repaired, seeds sown and wonderful fruits ripened. It can be a place for hobbies such as model engineering and woodwork, or a place to paint or read. We have built sowing rooms and craft studios. Garden buildings have always been a place to develop, explore create and reflect.

Whatever the use we celebrate the garden building and believe that it doesn't need to be a boring brown shed  that needs to be screened and hidden. We want the structure to enhance the space it occupies and be a worthy addition to the garden. Nowadays there are increasing numbers of metal and even plastic structures but the warmth and character of a traditional timber building greatly enhances a garden and can give decades of service if cared for.

With all the work we undertake we offer a 'one stop shop' experience. With the exception of electrical work and some glazing work we undertake all the work ourselves and rarely use contractors. It is a complete ground up process including foundations through to finish. 

We hope that our website highlights the passion we have for what we do. Look through  the pages to see scores of buildings that we have created or restored, they are a small selection but hopefully show the wide diversity of the work undertaken.

Please note since 2020 there has been a rise in Garden Office projects and because of the specialised need for all weather insulation and electical work this is not the sort of work we undertake, we would advise contacting a specialist company that can create this sort of environement.

We are always happy to discuss a project and then can go on to offer a design and quotation after consultation without any obligation on your part to proceed. If you decide to try elsewhere we are happy to 'bow out gracefully and respect your wishes.' We never chase up customers, pester with phone calls or emails. We don't like it and so we don't do it to others.
