The Solution:

To house the new shed, we designed and built a raised decking area that wrapped around the back of the tree and started level at the highest point of the grass, to avoid the need for any steps. We really worked to the available limit, and this allowed for more than enough room to build the bespoke, handmade shed. At the request of Rachel & Martin, we also incorporated a water-butt for rainwater collection. The shed was built with a timber stud frame, with solid external cladding and our rubber roof system.This ensures the shed is weatherproof and long lasting.

For the design for the new, replacement raised decking area we incorporated an access step, handrail and chunky balustrades because again, the unlevelled garden meant that some areas would be quite raised. We also included a built-in seating area, uniformed against the back angles of the decked area to maximise the number of people they could accommodated. Finally, as a finishing touch, deck lights were installed for evening entertaining.

Rachel & Martin were extremely pleased with their garden update, with both areas having become decent, usable space whilst not detracting away from the rest of the garden.
