Timber Garages

Timber Garages are ideal for cars, boats and motorbikes and in the majority of cases do not require planning permission.

Our range of timber garages are built to a high specification with particular attention given to strength and durability. A timber garage is an attractive building and being timber your new garage will have better natural insulation, good ventilation, and could be less expensive than a traditional metal or concrete garage.

Wooden Garages built to your requirements

We are able to offer a choice of exterior timber finishes; Shiplap, Weatherboard (also known as Featheredge) or Loglap. All the timber used in the construction of our buildings has been pressure impregnated with TanalithE® wood preserver, this ensures a long maintenance-free life.

Roofs are boarded, battened and then covered with black Onduline as standard, although green, red or brown are also available. Alternative roofing materials could be used such as felt, felt tiles or if you prefer to have a clay, slate or cedar shingle tiled roof, we can adapt the construction of the building accordingly.

Our standard sized wooden garages range from 5.4 x 3 metres up to 14.6 x 10.4 metres. While the longest length we have in our price list is 14.6m (48-foot), any length is available.

We also offer bespoke design should you prefer to be more creative, whether it be an L-shaped Timber Garage with an open port to the side or a row of 10 garages.
Come and discuss your requirements with us, we will be more than happy to help you plan your dream timber / wooden garage.
