Linea Garden Office 2.5m x 2.5m

We stumbled upon Garden Affairs by accident whilst visiting Trowbridge Garden Centre last year. From this first visit we liked the look of the buildings on display and it was decided that a garden office from here would suit our needs perfectly.

As the structure would be sited at the front of our house, it made it a bit more complicated as it doesn’t fall under permitted development rights. We had an initial consultation with Richard who was very experienced and knowledgeable about the intricacies of planning law. He helped navigate us through the options open to us and recommended a consultant to assist with the approval process.

We found the whole team to be friendly and helpful throughout both the design and build stages. Now construction is complete we are very pleased with the look and quality of the finished building. A very minor snagging issue we noticed shortly after completion was rectified the same day we reported it so we are confident that the after-sales service is solid going forward.

Once we have added some finishing touches and furniture to the area in front of the office it will have opened up a fantastic new space that was previously unused. We have found Garden Affairs to have exceeded our expectations every step of the way and therefore wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone else looking to buy.

We have been delighted with all aspects of the interaction with Garden Affairs and would recommend them most highly. We removed an older prefabricated garage to accommodate the summer house in the back garden on an existing flat concrete slab. Consequently, we approached Garden Affairs for a bespoke design, based on a model that we had seen on the company website, with minor modifications to fit the base. We exchanged many e-mails and telephone calls to identify what could be achieved before visiting the site to examine the quality of the products. The demonstration buildings were very impressive and these convinced us to purchase the summer house. Working on a budget (and keen for a lockdown project) I opted to go for a self-build option, with initial help from a friend to construct the shell to roof level. The delivery from a flatbed with crane arm was very efficient, despite our rural location on a narrow lane, and the build list was comprehensive. The plans were very clear and help was available at the end of the telephone or via e-mail (this was greatly appreciated as this was the first project that I had attempted of this magnitude). The after-market service has been second to none when minor issues (around lock fit/door adjustment) have arisen and these have been solved quickly and efficiently by return post or with a further call. The summer house is now complete, aside from a second coat of exterior paint (when the weather improves and the temperature rises) and we're delighted with the result.

At every stage of planning and buying our garden office, Garden Affairs were helpful, quick to respond and always had time to answer all the big and small questions. The final result is amazing, it looks so smart and will be such a game changer for us as a family. For such a quality building, I think their prices are reasonable and we've ended up with exactly what we hoped for. I couldn't recommend using them enough! :)
