Sometimes a shed is just beyond and repair and a new building is called for. In this case I can design and build a new bespoke garden shed to replace, and hopefully improve on, the previous one. For each of the following projects I visited the site personally to chat through the project requirements that would form the basis for each design.
Visiting the site enables me to understand the unique challenges of each project. Sometimes it is the location within the garden that is important, the placing of doors and windows for access and views. Other times it is the challenge of building a garden building on a sloping site that is the issue.
However, overcoming and meeting these obstacles is part of what I do.
My engineering background naturally draws me to using durable materials and my wide experience of garden buildings ensures that the buildings are attractive and blend into the space.
The following range of buildings is a bit of an eclectic mix, ranging from practical solutions such as Traditional Garden Sheds, Bin Stores and Log Stores, to more leisure focussed spaces like Summerhouses, Garden Shelters, Pool Sheds and Potting Sheds the haven of every horticulturist.
Each building is personally designed, with regards to functionality and durable construction.
This shed and bin store in Tunbridge Wells was built on a 'greenfield' site. So, construction included the concrete bases.
The log and bin store were located closer to the house and garden exit for convenience, whilst also keeping the bins accessible but relatively concealed from view

The shed was mainly to be used for storing tools and the lawn mower. Subsequent to construction of the sheds some hard landscaping was to be done to create paths and dry routes for access.
The Log Store provided a neat, practical and dry place to stack and keep the damp off the kiln dried logs for the customers wood-burning stove. The open design ensured that both the bin store and logs were adequately ventilated, and the enclosed bin store kept the outdoors tidy.

This garden shelter was built as a dry space from which to enjoy the garden, despite the vagaries of the British weather. It serves as a place that is easy to keep tidy and have chairs and table set up ready for an early evening drink or small party whatever the weather. The site was slightly sloping so a deck post foundation was used to enable a level floor.

This summerhouse was a replacement for a very similar building that had deteriorated beyond repair. The new summerhouse was built to be slightly smaller than the one it replaced to give more access around the perimeter. The new summerhouse was to be a good place to sit and enjoy the garden whilst the children play in the adjoining sandpit.

This replacement garden shed was built to suit the size of the existing base in Wadhurst, East Sussex. It provides a practical storage solution for gardening tools, equipment, and supplies. It doubles as a workspace and is made with a 2x2 framework of pressure treated timbers, 20mm thick pressure treated cladding and a durable EPDM roof. The traditional shape and style blends harmoniously with the garden environment.

This Pool Shed in Tunbridge Wells was a replacement for an old summerhouse that had been used as a pool house for many years. The new Pool house gave much greater head height as both of the customers were tall.
The summerhouse was designed to be low maintenance with the shed built of the existing concrete base use our ShedBoot bearer supports, and pressure treated framing and cladding. The roof was made from durable and long-lasting EPDM. Whilst the door was is made from Anthracite coloured uPVC.
The Pool shed houses the pool plant and chemicals as well as storage for cleaning tools and inflatables keeping the pool area organized. It also has sufficient room for changing.

This Potting Shed was designed to the customers specification. She wanted somewhere to start off seedlings and store tools, pots and compost. The shed provided a dedicated space for starting off plants and with an opening window and stable door had ventilation to prevent overheating.

As the building was only for starting off plants and protecting them from the weather we decided that the pent style roof and shed orientation would provide sufficient light and better protection than the alternative style of semi-greenhouse potting shed.

Pent storage shed - This small pent shed was tucked away in the corner of the garden to provide storage space for garden tools and free up space for relaxing in the traditional style summerhouse (which I carefully renovated).
