If you’re looking for a garden escape, a timber workshop should be at the top of your agenda.
Life can be incredibly busy and finding a peaceful sanctuary all of your own to unwind and pursue your passions is one of life’s great joys.
At Shields Buildings, we understand the need for a personal haven, which is why we’re excited to share how our bespoke timber workshops can transform your garden into the perfect escape.
Since 1991, we’ve been crafting beautiful, high-quality timber buildings for customers across Devon, Cornwall, Somerset, and Dorset. Our expertise lies in creating unique spaces that not only enhance your property but also provide a tranquil retreat right in your own backyard…
This means we know a thing or two about creating a timber workshop that’s perfect for your garden escape.
The Appeal of a Timber Workshop
Timber workshops offer a versatile solution for those seeking a dedicated space for hobbies, relaxation, or even a home office.
Whatever your plans for your own garden space, we can help make it a reality – we’ve worked on all sorts of weird, wonderful and unusual spaces so there’s no challenge we can’t rise to.
The natural warmth and character of wood create an inviting atmosphere, making it easy to slip away from the stresses of daily life and immerse yourself in your favourite activities.
Our workshops are designed with both functionality and aesthetics in mind. We offer a range of styles, from traditional to contemporary, ensuring that your new garden building complements your existing landscape and personal taste.
Customisation Is The Key to Your Perfect Retreat
What’s the point in having a space that’s uniquely you if it’s not uniquely you?
We’re all creatures of habit and we all love having things exactly as we like them, so why would you settle for any less with your bespoke timber garden building?
That’s why we specialise in bespoke timber buildings, tailoring each workshop to meet your specific needs and desires. Whether you’re envisioning a cosy nook for reading and meditation or a spacious area for crafting and DIY projects, we can bring your ideas to life.
Our customisation options include:
· Size and layout to fit your available space
· Choice of windows and doors for optimal natural light and access
· Roofing styles, including pent or low-profile apex options
· Interior finishes and insulation for year-round comfort
· Electrical and plumbing installations for added convenience
By working closely with you throughout the design process, we ensure that your timber workshop becomes the perfect extension of your home and lifestyle.
Quality Timber Garden Building Craftsmanship for Lasting Enjoyment
When investing in a garden building, durability is paramount.
Our workshops are built to stand the test of time, using only the finest materials and construction techniques from our workshop in Devon.
Each building is crafted by our skilled team at our farm, allowing us to maintain strict quality control throughout the manufacturing process. We take pride in our attention to detail, from the selection of sustainably sourced timber to the final touches that make each workshop unique. Our commitment to quality means you can enjoy your garden retreat for years to come, with minimal maintenance required.
When considering a timber workshop for your garden, it’s essential to think about how you’ll use the space.
Because what you use it for will define how it’s structured and what you want it to feature – if you’re an avid gardener, it might be that you need potting benches and tool storage, while if you’re a painter or looking for a space for meditation and relaxation, large windows to enjoy views of your garden and let natural light in will be key.
It’s also important to consider practical aspects such as:
· Planning permission requirements (although many of our buildings comply)
· Access to utilities like electricity and water
· Positioning for optimal sunlight and privacy
· Integration with your existing landscaping
The good news is that our experienced team can guide you through these considerations, ensuring that your new workshop meets your needs and complies with local regulations so you’re good to go!
