Your garden has more potential than you might think. We help homeowners across Lancaster bring that potential to life with buildings that are built for real, everyday use.

A separate space to work can dramatically improve your productivity and wellbeing. Our garden offices are designed with modern remote working in mind, including power sockets, internet access, heating, and lighting — all in a quiet, professional environment just steps from your back door.

Skip the commute to the gym and work out when it suits you. From yoga studios to weightlifting rooms, our garden gyms are tailored to your training needs — with the option to add reinforced flooring, mirrors, ventilation and more.

Creative Studios

Writers, artists, musicians, and makers need space to create — and our studios offer just that. Bright, warm, and fully adaptable, we’ll build a space that inspires and supports your craft.

Guest Rooms & Annexes

Need extra space for visitors or growing teens? Our garden annexes offer self-contained comfort, fully insulated and optionally fitted with plumbing, electrics, and heating for year-round use.

Premium Garden Sheds & Storage

We don’t just build garden rooms — we also design secure, weatherproof storage buildings that look great and work hard. Ideal for tools, bikes, outdoor furniture, or garden equipment.

From the start the whole process was easy and flexible. We chose a size which fitted our exact requirements with other features we wanted.
