Before Buying a Premium Garden Building

**PLEASE NOTE: We recommend making an appointment to view the garden buildings ensuring a member of the estate is available to assist you and provide the relevant information. Feedback from our customers indicate the appointment system works a treat and it really helps to have someone with a good knowledge of the product able to answer any questions or queries you may have.**

The buildings are all made by Timber Garden Buildings in their factory in Rotherham using Swedish redwood (no chipboard or MDF) and are delivered and installed by their own installation teams.

There is no sub-contractor who can affect the outcome of the build leaving you open to any dispute between factory and installer.

They also come with a 10 year manufacturer's guarantee.

The Base

A good strong level base is as important as the building itself. If the base is not strong enough or level (especially the diagonal levels) the building could twist causing damage to the roof, broken windows and jammed doors.

These garden buildings can be erected on any level surface, however, we would thoroughly recommend you consider investing in a proper base made from decking, slabs or concrete.

The purpose of the base is two-fold, first to take the weight of the building and not move once the building is erected avoiding windows breaking and doors jamming and secondly to seal off the ground and prevent moisture evaporating up through the floor. A good base can add years to the life of any building. We do have a landscape gardening contact who can do this for you if required.

First remove any topsoil and level the area the building is going to stand on, then lay down 3" to 4" of type-1 hard core and compact using a plate compactor which can be hired from any hire store. Lay the concrete slabs butted tightly together, in a sand and cement mix, to cover at least the base area of the building (you might want to make it slightly larger than the footprint of the building to account for water run-off from the roof and to step onto when entering or leaving the door(s).

How to choose the best building to suit your purpose

We always recommend you visit the estate and let us show you our display building.
Our opening hours are 9am till 1pm and 2pm till 5pm Monday to Friday and 9am till 12pm Saturday, we are closed on Sundays and Public Holidays. This gives us an opportunity to show you the quality of the buildings, the options available and offer you expert advice on your planned purchase.

Each building is made to order, so in-between standard sizes are also available, however, we would have to get a price from the manufacturer.

When comparing sizes of buildings we recommend you calculate in square feet. For example, an 8' x 10' does not sound much smaller than a 10' x 10' but the former is 80 square foot and the latter is 100 square foot, 25% larger for only 2' more on one side! Use the drop down boxes to select the size of building you require. Select the laminate flooring finish (which is included in the price of the building). You will then find all the additional extras such as the painted finish colours and additional windows, sockets etc. All prices shown on our website for all buildings and extras include delivery, installation and vat.

All Vista buildings come pressure treated prior to delivery.
