Standard Premium Summer House: Your Garden Sanctuary
Summer houses have become increasingly popular across Scotland and we've noticed a significant surge in demand for garden buildings that can serve multiple purposes throughout the year. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, a home office space or simply a stylish addition to your garden, our upgraded standard premium summer houses offer the perfect solution for homeowners who value quality and durability.
Built for Scottish Weather Conditions
We understand the challenges that Scottish weather presents, from driving rain to harsh winds and everything in between. Our standard premium summer houses are specifically engineered to withstand these conditions, ensuring your investment remains protected year after year. The construction begins with a robust frame built using 2 x 2 regularised and treated kiln dried whitewood, providing the structural integrity necessary for long-term durability.
The weatherproofing continues with our choice of exterior cladding options. Our standard specification includes 16mm redwood weatherboard tongue and groove which provides excellent protection against the elements whilst maintaining an attractive appearance. For those seeking an alternative aesthetic we offer a 21mm thick log effect tongue and groove option as an upgrade giving your summer house a more rustic, cabin-like appearance.
Both the floor and roof utilise 19mm tongue and groove construction, ensuring consistent quality throughout the structure. This specification provides excellent insulation properties and creates a solid, stable foundation and overhead protection that you can rely on for years to come.
Enhanced Features as Standard
Our upgraded standard summer houses now include several premium features that were previously optional extras. We've incorporated two toughened glass PVC maintenance-free top-hung windows as standard, providing ample natural light whilst eliminating the ongoing maintenance concerns associated with traditional timber windows. The PVC construction ensures these windows will continue to operate smoothly and look pristine with minimal upkeep.
The entrance features a PVC maintenance-free open-out French door creating an inviting entrance that maximises the opening width. This design choice not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also makes it easier to move furniture and equipment in and out of your summer house, whether you're using it as a garden room, home office or storage space.
Weather protection is completed with extra heavy-duty torch-on roof felt, providing superior waterproofing compared to standard felt options. This ensures your summer house remains completely weatherproof, protecting both the structure and any contents from moisture ingress.
Versatile Applications for Modern Living
The beauty of our standard premium summer house lies in its versatility. We've designed these structures to accommodate various uses, adapting to your changing needs over time. Many of our customers initially install them as traditional summer houses for relaxation and entertainment but find themselves adapting the space for different purposes as their circumstances change.
Home working has become increasingly common and our summer houses provide an ideal solution for those requiring a dedicated office space separate from the main house. The weatherproof design creates a comfortable working environment throughout the year, whilst the separate entrance helps maintain the work-life balance that can be challenging when working from home. For added comfort and durability, insulation and internal cladding can be included for an additional cost enhancing both warmth and structural strength.
For craft enthusiasts, artists or those pursuing hobbies that require dedicated space these structures offer the perfect workshop environment. The natural light from the toughened glass windows creates an inspiring workspace, whilst the robust construction can accommodate various equipment and storage requirements.
Customisation Options Available
Whilst our standard specification provides excellent value and functionality we recognise that individual requirements vary. We offer additional windows as upgrade options for those requiring more natural light or specific positioning to suit their garden layout or intended use. These upgrades are available at competitive additional costs, allowing you to tailor the specification to your exact requirements.
The range is available in various standard sizes, ensuring we can accommodate different garden dimensions and planning considerations. Each summer house is made to order, allowing us to ensure the specification matches your requirements before construction begins.
Professional Assembly Services
We supply our standard premium summer houses in kit form complete with comprehensive assembly instructions for those who prefer the satisfaction of self-assembly. The tongue and groove construction and pre-cut components are designed for straightforward assembly, making the process achievable for competent DIY enthusiasts.
However, we recognise that not everyone has the time, tools or inclination for self-assembly. Our professional erection service is available at an affordable additional cost, providing peace of mind and ensuring your summer house is assembled to the highest standards. Our experienced team understands the importance of proper assembly for long-term performance and can complete the installation efficiently and professionally.
