All models boast plenty of glass to allow light to flood inside your building. The default position – which we are always happy to vary without additional cost where possible – will see a 1.2m (4’) wide double door on the angled section of the building with either 1 (on 6’ x 6’ or 7’ x 7’ models) or 2 (on 8’ x 8’ models and above) fixed windows on the facing flanks.
All windows are fixed although a top-hung opener can be added to any of these windows to increase internal air circulation if desired. There is a choice of different window styles:
• Contemporary – 1.5m (5’) high glazing to allow the maximum amount of light to flood into the building
• Classic – An alternative to Contemporary glazing; available in 1.2m (4’) and 0.9m (3’) variants
• Chalet – Similar to the Contemporary glazing but with the pane split into three to give a more traditional appearance
• Georgian – Traditional 6 pane Georgian doors and windows offer a greater degree of privacy

- The Big Question is How Much Will A Summerhouse Shed Cost?By their very nature, it’s not possible to have a price list for all the thousands of buildings which could be supplied to meet your needs. However, to get a ‘ballpark’ figure, there’s a rough way of doing this and is as follows:- Decide on the design of building you would like and go to that web page. On the web page, there will be a link to the price list relating to that model. Either decide on the overall size of your shed summerhouse combo and write down the prices. You then need to add an internal partition, and the cost for this is about £30 per linear ft. So if the building was 12ft wide across the front, the partition would be 12ft, and the cost would be an extra £360. You would then need to add a door for access to the combi storage shed, and this would be about £100, depending on the type of door chosen. The second way to get a rough price is to take the price of the summerhouse and the price of the shed and add them together, and it would be there about. We are, of course, delighted to supply you with a firm quote to meet your needs. Just call us on (01483) 237550 or (0333) 800 8880 or use our contact form or visit our display site.

- Why Is Viewing A Summerbuilding In Person Essential Before Purchasing?With the internet, it's often difficult to see what your new building will be like. This is why it's essential to view examples before delivery. This way, you can see how well it's been made, whether there is sufficient head height, whether the doors and windows are solidly made and how good the timber is Whilst some internet-only companies may claim it's best to buy online, it is only sometimes possible to be sure what you are getting. If they are not prepared to let you see their buildings beforehand, then be wary. The cheapest price is only sometimes the best value.
