The Summer House Project

We were thrilled to be asked to build a large summer house adjoining our clients outside swimming pool. This was a fully bespoke design to provide space for them enjoy their beautiful garden, whatever the weather. The entire structure was custom made in our workshop then carefully constructed on site including fitting out the interior. 

After digging the footings, we go to work constructing the framework. 

The structure consists of a cedar shingle roof & all external woodwork including windows & doors were constructed from Acoya. This is an ultra durable & stable wood which comes with a 50 year guarantee against any rotting or fungi. It is particularly useful for joinery as it prevents the doors & windows from sticking & ensures it can be enjoyed for decades to come.

After the main constuction was complete, we fitted the interior of the Summer house out to our clients specifications including laying tile effect laminate flooring & installing a kitchen area with oak worktops.

This Summer house is now the perfect retreat & can be enjoyed no matter what the great British weather chucks at us. From soaking up the sunshine next to the swimming pool to cosy cups of tea & a good books whilst listening to the rain tapping on those (if we do say so ourselves…) beautiful windows in the Winter. 

We were later asked to go back to build a mini version! A lovely little wendy house with mezzanine floor for our clients grandchildren to play in.
