News from Shields Buildings

It was JFK who said, “the time to repair the roof is when the sun is shining”.

We’ve put together a short five-part video series on exactly what you need to be looking for when choosing your very own timber garden building.

As you’d expect, we get asked a lot about what you need to look out for when it comes to getting a timber garden building installed.

Right now, it feels like everywhere I look, things are being put off.

July was one of our busiest ever months here at Shields Buildings, as people make up for lost time. It’s fantastic to see things moving again, and personally I’m loving talking to customers again, and helping them achieve what they want to with their outdoor space.

A question I’ve been asked quite a bit recently is:

It’s confirmed; we’re off to bonny Scotland on holiday. After getting over the disappointment of our cancelled trip Stateside, we’ve regrouped, and we’re planning on heading north of the border.

For some reason, every year I assume that July is going to be a scorcher of a month. I think it’s because my memories of childhood include school wrapping up for the summer, and giving way to beach visits, ice creams and garden parties. Whatever the reason, I need to get it out of my head, because it’s clearly a wildly inaccurate assumption!

Now it’s official – we can go on holiday this summer. The government finally released the list of countries on the ‘air bridge’ list last week, prompting holidaymakers to jump online, or head to their local agent to book something up.

We’ve been busy recently.  To be honest, that’s a bit of an understatement. As lockdown eases, and people come out of hibernation, projects for bespoke timber buildings are popping up all over the place.
