garden studios - FEATURED CASE STUDIES
Our customer in rural Somerset wanted a stylish garden room that would make the most of the spectacular rolling countryside views while providing a welcoming space for entertaining friends and family. Together, we designed a 7m x 3.5m composite-clad ZERO building with extensive glazing, including nine windows, a fully glazed entrance door and a full gable-end sliding door system.
After visiting our display site, the customer approached us looking for a bespoke garden room that could be used as a dedicated home gym. Working closely with them, we designed a spacious 6m x 4m building tailored to their requirements, including a non-standard Vandyke Brown roof to complement the home’s existing brown uPVC guttering and Rosewood coloured uPVC to create a cohesive finish.
Our client wanted a stylish garden room that would make the most of their beautiful garden and surrounding views while fitting seamlessly into a challenging sloping site. Working closely with them, we designed a bespoke building layout that provided practical day-to-day access via a side entrance door, alongside a large sliding door opening directly onto the decking area.
Our client wanted to replace an ageing garden building and rotten decking area with a high-quality garden room that could be enjoyed throughout the year. Working closely with them from the outset, we developed a design that made the most of the available space while ensuring the finished building complemented both the garden and the property. We managed the entire project from start to finish, providing a single point of contact throughout.
When Mr and Mrs D visited our display site, they already had a clear vision: a space that could balance both practicality and creativity: a combined workshop and art studio.
After chatting through ideas with our team, the plans began to take shape, and we began turning the vision into reality.
Together, we refined the design, incorporating a few bespoke touches, including a neatmatch effect internal lining to the art studio roof at Mrs Ds’ request. It was a first for us here at Shields Buildings, and a great example of how truly tailored each project can be.
"From initial inquiry to the day of completion the service from Shields Buildings was first rate.
The build involved demolishing an existing shed and garage and replacing these with a studio and workshop. Shields took great care of the whole process. After a discussion and survey of our site by Shields we visited the show site to view their product range. The team were very helpful in making suggestions and improvements to our initial design and worked to save us money!
What’s more every member of the Shields team from concept to handing over keys have been a pleasure to deal with. We are delighted with the result. Five-star people, five-star product."
On visiting our display site Mr and Mrs D were immediately drawn to our ZERO range – zero maintenance, zero planning, zero hassle.
They zeroed in (see what we did there?!) on a 5x3m studio, and the process began, with our team heading out for a site visit.
After ironing out some access issues, our team got to work, crafting the building on-site here at Shields Buildings, and delivering and assembling the ZERO studio, ready to be enjoyed by our customers.
"Just to let you know that Aaron and Neil finished the garden office/studio today and it looks amazing. We are really pleased with it.
The lads have done a fantastic job and worked so well and in some difficult conditions what with the ground and also the poor weather. They never complained and were real troopers and soldiered on regardless. Please pass on our thanks again to the team. "
The project began when Mr T and his wife visited us on one of our Open Saturdays and was impressed by the quality and variety of our timber buildings. Inspired by what they saw, they approached us with a vision for a highly bespoke garden room.
We worked closely with them to bring it to life and a 4m x 3.4m building with a 1.6m canopy and composite decking was created. It had to suit both the challenge of their sloping garden and provide suitable space for their lifestyle.
Through regular communication and a flexible approach, we ensured every detail reflected their needs, resulting in a truly unique and beautifully crafted garden room.
"The site team were truly remarkable, exceeded all expectations, were personable, friendly and extremely god at their job! They took the time to get it right which is always good to see."
Mr T's Garden Room
Mr C originally came to us with plans for a timber carport.
But as soon as he visited the display site, he was taken immediately by our ZERO garden room, recognising it as an ideal place to house his model railway set.
Following his initial visits, Mr C supplied detailed requirements and after another meeting at the display site and a few design phone calls, the ZERO stood out as the perfect choice.
"The process of choosing my garden room to completion was seamless, Shields kept me informed throughout and the installation team were amazing in their attention to detail in getting everything just right as well as being very polite and friendly. I can’t recommend Shields enough as the garden room exceeded my expectations and is admired by all that see it. The Zero garden room is a must for anyone who wants quality without planning and maintenance."

Mr P arrived at our display site already keen on the ZERO – our turnkey, all-inclusive garden room option.
He was able to apply his own personal touches by choosing the colours of the external cladding and internal flooring. And then all that was needed was for one of our team to visit Mr P’s property to make sure everything would work and fit in his preferred spot.
Once confirmed, Mr P could sit back and relax and wait for installation.
"I had a Zero installed a couple of weeks ago. So far it is everything I expected, and the construction went as I was told it would. You couldn’t ask for more."

James and Liz wanted a garden room they could use all year round, so they could enjoy the beautiful views of the moor from the top of their garden.
The room needed to be multipurpose – cosy enough to spend time and relax in when they were alone, and big enough to entertain their grandchildren in comfort.
"I'm sure when John first saw the site, his heart must have sunk as the access is awful and the site was on a slope. But with a lot of ingenuity the building is now finished and it's fabulous. Great team of specialist builders who turned up when they said they would turn up and smiled all the way through what must have been quite a testing job."
