A classic image of the timber greenhouse and garden shed set in a garden surrounded by flowers , bushes or maybe vegetables.

   These structures offer a chance to spend time creating, nourishing and enjoying time outside

Perhaps what is most important to us is what makes a house our 'HOME'. Whether it is the interior with bespoke bathrooms and kitchens, new decoration and furnishing.Then 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.

Even a a simple 6ft wide greenhouse 8 ft long can give many, many years service but in time it will suffer.... then what? 

Discard and replace...OR why not consider getting the grenhouse repaired and restored back again.

Better for the environement as less waste to landfill but better for the pocket as it is often far cheaper.

Sometimes the idea of restoration can even  revive and rejuvenate the passion for the space and the garden.

A greenhouse repair and restoration is Often far cheaper than a replacement and with our method it will once again last for years. There are no additional cost for removal, disposal and replacaments. Often a new building will require new foundations to be laid. Most structures like the greenhouse can be repaired and all the damaged or rotted material can be banished. The structure and glass can be cleaned and timber treated to further prolong its life. All this thereby having less impact on the environment than simply discarding and replacing....

We can repair and restore almost any greenhouse with our method and we guarantee the work and the greenhouse not for a few weeks or a year or two. Restored back to as new it will have the same life as new, guaranteed.

THis is not simply banging in a piece of wood from your local DIY retailer and slapping on a coat of thick paint to disguise the repair. There is no 'wood hardener and wood filler' to replace structural timber supports. No spurious claims about products or hardwood timber being used. Or estimated costs that soon grow.

Comments such as 'All Wooden greenhouses leak a bit, because it is a natural material' are completely false.

We quote, we restore and return and we guarantee that it will not leak or fail

We take the greenhouse down, strip it back to individual timber components before repairing each piece to return the greenhouse to AS NEW. And with a durable finish that is semi transparent the restored greenhouse is ready to start again. No hidden filler or cheap timber repairs that will rot in a few years. It will be strong, it will be durable and best of all it will be easy to maintain..We evenn clean the glass, repaint the benches and we will always be cheaper than a like for like replacement. If not we say so up front and advise accordingly.

• No need to pay to take the old greenhouse down and send it to landfill.​
• No dodgy bodge repair that will last a year or so. The semi transparent finish we use leaves the repairs clearly visble, there is nowhere to hide.
• No expense of a new base and the installation cost for a new greenhouse.
• Your Greenhouse back looking like it was straight out of the factory.

Please note.​

      Unfortunately we do not work on conservatories or similar 'extra living space structures built on to the main house. We do work on lean-to greenhouses etc. essentially ours work is very much focused on garden structures like sheds, summerhouses and greenhouses.

.

• We do not offer an installation service to erect newly purchased after market garden structures.
• We also do not offer a glazing replacement service for broken glass.
• We do not work on aluminum and plastic structures.

       Since the pandemic we do get inquiries to create specialist garden offices as a result of working from home changes. Whilst we can and have done this, If the home office is to be used all year round. We would advise to contact one of the many specialised contractors who now supply a range of such structures. Suitable for all season where they need to provide an all year round level of a comfortable, dry, warm  environment to work in safely.

These companies can provide the correct design elements for the conditions you need to work in. Plus they offer advise to support and protect the necesary important electrical  and computer equipment 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 historic 'Vinery' in a London Suburb. It was just a wonderful example of what can be achieved in a limited space. The original grape vine is still growing, now nearly 120 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'

     'I found my perfect tiny greenhouse'

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.
