Most of our buildings are designed so that planning permission is not required. However, we cannot accept any responsibilities regarding planning permission, and we do not accept liability if the correct planning approval is not obtained.

Our buildings are also designed so that Building Regulations Approval is not required for the majority of our sheds, summerhouses and garden offices. However, depending upon the use of your building and additional modifications (such as electrical connections), you may be required to seek building regulations approval. In particular, almost all electrical work must be undertaken by a suitably qualified electrician, who should be consulted before installing electrics in your building.

Please note: We do not offer legal advice and it is essential that you seek independent advice or speak to your local planning authority for guidance before placing your order.

As with all garden buildings, you will need to arrange a solid and level base for your building to be assembled onto. We would recommend using either concrete, paving slabs or timber bearers for this, however other methods such as eco bases are available. Please let us know if you would like any assistance with this and we will do our best to advise you.

In order to maintain the warranty on your order and protect your building against weather damages, we would strongly recommend leaving a clearance area of 1m between your new garden building and any other solid surfaces, such as fences or brick walls.

We do not currently provide insulation as an optional extra for every one of our buildings, however we do have a range of fully insulated garden buildings. Please Click Here to see our full range of fully insulated buildings, or feel free to contact our friendly customer support on 01777 802300 to find out more.

It is essential that all garden buildings are assembled on a foundation that is both solid and level. This will ensure that the construction of your building goes smoothly and will prevent issues, as all our buildings are designed to be assembled on a completely level base.

If you would like any assistance with creating a base for your building, feel free to contact us or see our Base Guide for more information. Assembling on an unsuitable foundation may invalidate your warranty, so let us know if you have any questions about this.

We also have our specially designed Eze Base, which provides a solid and level foundation for our garden rooms and offices with minimal groundwork required. Please let us know if this would be something you are interested in and we will see if it is possible to add this to your order.

If you require any bespoke alterations to get your building exactly how you require it, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate you with everything you need. Either give us a call on 01777 802 300, or send us an email with all the details to sales@projecttimber.co.uk, and will get your bespoke building organised for you.

Common alterations include but are not limited to: Partition Walls, Extra Doors, Replacing Windows with Timber Panels and changing the style of the doors.

All of our buildings are supplied with floors made from either Sustainable OSB or Durable T&G Timber. If you let us know when placing the order then our team of experts can assist you with choosing the best flooring for your needs.

We currently do not have the option of delivering a building without a floor, as our buildings are assembled using the floor as a starting point, and it is company policy to ensure our customers have everything needed to assemble a fully functional building..

All of our timber comes fully pressure treated to protect against eventual rot and mold that can occur with untreated wood. There are multiple precise steps, but the result is a high-quality product that lasts much longer than untreated or dip-treated wood. During the treatment process, the timber is dried naturally using a kiln or airflow. All moisture is removed from the wood which preps it for the next step. Soon after, the timber is placed in a pressure treatment tank where a vacuum is used to remove all of the air. The tank is filled with a wood preservative, and once the timber has been treated for a sufficient amount of time the liquid is then removed via vacuum. Ultimately, it’s the low pressure of the timber that draws in the preservatives deep into the grain, thus creating a fully treated end product.

Typically, you can identify pressure treated timber by its green tinge finish. Pressure treated timber also stands up amazingly well against the weather, increasing its longevity. Keep in mind that if you saw or cut away a strip of pressure treated wood, you should immediately coat the exposed ends with a high-quality preservative.

When it comes to sheds, there are dozens of choices that vary by durability, design, and other factors. Whether it’s an apex shed, wooden garden shed with shiplap cladding or a tall garden shed, there are so many advantages to your building being pressure treated. All wooden buildings benefit from pressure treatment, from corner summer houses, garden rooms and garden offices to even bike sheds and dog kennels.
