A new project underway in Mid Devon and one we’re loving getting stuck into 🔨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This bespoke timber veranda will give our clients a practical outdoor space for relaxing, entertaining and making more of their garden, whatever the weather decides to do.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Built using quality timber and designed specifically for the property, it’s a great example of how a well-designed structure can completely change the way a space is used.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We’re looking forward to sharing the progress as this one takes shape. If you’re considering a veranda, pergola or timber-framed outdoor structure and would like to discuss your ideas, feel free to get in touch for a no-obligation chat and quotation.

Running out of space? 🔨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For many of our clients, it starts with a garage that’s overflowing, tools spread between different buildings, or a hobby that’s gradually taken over every spare corner of the house.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A proper workshop changes that.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whether it’s for woodworking, vehicle restoration, storing equipment or running part of a business from home, having a dedicated space that’s designed around how you actually work makes a huge difference day to day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Rather than adapting a standard shed and trying to make it fit your needs, our workshops are designed from the outset around the intended use. Layout, access, storage, insulation, lighting and future requirements are all considered before a single piece of timber is cut.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Built using quality timber framing, durable materials and traditional construction methods, these are buildings designed for year-round use and built to provide reliable service for decades to come.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Every workshop is bespoke because every client uses the space differently. So, if you’re thinking about adding a workshop to your property, we’d be happy to discuss your ideas.

Reviews like this mean a lot.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sue & Andrew have asked us back for several projects over the years, including sheds, fencing, raised beds and a log store.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Seeing clients return time and again is probably the biggest compliment we can receive.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We spend a lot of time talking about quality materials, traditional construction methods and attention to detail, but at the end of the day people also want someone they can trust in their home and garden.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s why we focus on turning up when we say we will, communicating clearly and building things that are made to last.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you, Sue & Andrew, for your kind words and continued support.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re considering a timber garage, workshop, garden building or outdoor project and would like to discuss your ideas, we’d be pleased to hear from you.

This project in Ottery St Mary started with a simple problem.

The front garden wasn’t really working for the homeowners. A large established clematis and overgrown planting had gradually taken over the space, leaving very little practical room for parking. As a result, both cars were regularly being left down the road.

With a new arrival on the way and a tight deadline to work to, they wanted a driveway that was easy to use day-to-day, looked smart from the road and comfortably accommodated two vehicles.

We cleared the site, removed the existing planting, reshaped the space and installed new fencing to create a much cleaner, more organised frontage.

The result is a property that feels larger, tidier and significantly more practical for modern family life. Two vehicles can now be parked comfortably off-road, access is straightforward and the whole front of the house feels smarter.

Projects like this are a great reminder that improving a home isn’t always about adding something new. Sometimes it’s about making better use of the space that’s already there. The difference to everyday living can be huge, and it certainly doesn’t hurt the overall appeal of the property either.

We’re chuffed with how this one turned out! 🔨

Where would you put yours? 🌿

Under a favourite tree. Looking out across the garden. Beside a fire pit. Or perhaps outside a holiday cottage where guests can sit with a morning coffee and enjoy the view.

These solid timber sleeper benches are simple in design, but that’s exactly the appeal. Built from substantial timber and made to withstand years of outdoor use, they provide practical seating without looking out of place in the landscape.

They’re becoming increasingly popular with holiday cottages, Airbnbs and rural retreats where the outdoor space is just as important as what’s inside. A carefully positioned bench can encourage guests to slow down, take in the surroundings and make more of the property they’re staying in.

Of course, they’re equally at home in the garden too - whether creating a quiet seating spot, framing a pathway or adding extra seating for family gatherings throughout the summer months.

Available in a range of sizes, with bespoke dimensions also available to suit your space.

If you’re looking to improve a garden, holiday let or outdoor area this summer, we’d be happy to discuss a bespoke timber bench built to suit your property.

Has the garden started calling your name again yet? 🪴🧤 🌿☀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This time of year is when outdoor spaces start getting attention again - patios being cleaned off, borders replanted and all those garden projects finally getting tackled.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A solid timber planter is one of the easiest ways to add structure and character to a garden without completely redesigning the space. Whether it’s softening a patio, framing a pathway or creating a focal point outside a garden room, they make a bigger difference than most people expect.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These planters are built from quality timber using thick 25mm boards, raised off the ground for airflow and drainage, and designed to stay outside year-round. No thin panels, staples or lightweight timber that twists after one winter.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We can build them to suit your space too - longer runs, matching sets, different heights or lined options depending on how you want to use them.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re starting to get the garden back into shape for summer, now’s a brilliant time to get projects booked in.

These pieces were made for as part of the launch of a local village shop - including bespoke shelving, display units, picnic benches and timber storage pieces, all built to suit the space and the way the shop would actually function day to day.

A lot of commercial furniture now is flat-pack, lightweight and built to be replaced in a few years. We take a different approach, with solid timber, practical construction methods and pieces designed around the setting they’re going into.

Alongside larger timber buildings and garages, we also create bespoke timber furniture and fitted pieces for homes, holiday lets, farm shops, cafés and small businesses across Devon and the South West.

🪵 Picnic benches and outdoor seating
🪵 Bespoke shelving and display units
🪵 Timber storage solutions
🪵 Shop fittings and commercial timber furniture
🪵 Custom-built pieces made to suit your space and requirements

As a small business ourselves, we know how much care goes into building something from the ground up, so it’s always a pleasure to support other independent businesses doing the same.

If you have a project in mind, we’d be happy to discuss it.

26/05/2026

Designed and built as part of a large five-bedroom holiday home project, this 4.8m x 2.4m slated roof outhouse was created to add practical storage while still feeling completely in keeping with the main property.

The building was divided into three individual spaces, each designed around how the house will actually be used by guests throughout the year.

One section provides secure storage for larger holiday equipment, the insulated central room houses the solar panel battery system to help maintain performance year-round, and the final bay creates a dedicated log store ready for colder evenings.

Rather than treating the outbuilding as a separate add-on, the aim was for it to feel like a natural extension of the house itself. By using matching cladding and reclaimed roof slates, the finished structure settles naturally into the setting while providing durable, long-term functionality.

Bespoke timber buildings designed around the property, not simply added to it.

If you’re planning a garage, workshop, garden building or practical outbuilding across Devon or the South West, get in touch to discuss your project.

A thoughtfully designed veranda or pergola transforms how an outdoor space feels and functions throughout the year.

Many gardens have areas that are visually attractive but rarely used - exposed patios, disconnected seating areas, or spaces that lack shelter and structure. A bespoke timber structure brings definition, balance and usability while creating a far stronger connection between the house and garden.

Whether designed for outdoor dining, entertaining, quiet evenings or to frame planting and pathways, each project is tailored to the property and the way the space is intended to be enjoyed long-term.

Built using oak, Douglas fir and other carefully selected timbers, our verandas and pergolas are crafted with longevity, proportion and timeless design in mind - creating outdoor structures that settle naturally into their surroundings and improve with age.

For bespoke timber verandas and pergolas across Devon and the South West, please get in touch to discuss your project.
