Summerhouse Companies in the UK

Types and Uses

Lifestyle trends are definitely moving towards spending more time in the garden. A plethora of TV programmes on garden design and outdoor entertaining, plus high fuel prices encouraging people to work from home, means demand for garden buildings like summerhouses is high.

A quality summerhouse adds value to a property and extra space that can be used for a multitude of purposes. There are styles to suit all sizes of garden and age of home, all combining looks with practicality. Popular choices are traditional, pavilion or beach hut style, corner shape or studio style. Bay windows and stable doors are among features that can give added character to a summerhouse.

To get the best out of a summerhouse, consider where it will be placed in the garden and the direction of the sun at different times of the day.

For the best choice of design, look for a company able to manufacture bespoke summerhouses. Odd sizes are not a problem in a custom-designed building and customers can also decide where they want windows and doors to suit the structure's purpose and its relationship to the house.

With all summerhouse orders, check whether that is an installation service available, to ensure the building is erected securely, and whether that incurs an extra charge.
