Garden Workshops | The Extra Room You Need

Want a proper space to work on projects? Our workshops give you a solid room in your garden that stays warm and dry all year. They're built tough - just right for DIY, hobbies, or getting on with work away from the house.

Each workshop stands up to UK weather like our garden sheds, but with extras that make working easier. You get strong floors that won't buckle under tools and benches, good windows for natural light, and proper ventilation that keeps your gear from going rusty.

Short on space? Our neat, compact builds fit snugly in smaller gardens. Need room to spread out? Our bigger workshops give you space for serious projects. Every size uses the same quality materials - they're made for years of use in British weather.

These aren't just basic sheds with windows. The floors can take real weight, the doors open wide for moving big stuff, and you get proper ventilation to keep everything inside fresh and dry. We've thought about what you'll actually do in there - whether it's woodwork, painting, or running a small business.

Ready for your own workshop? Take a look at what we've got. We'll drop it anywhere in the UK, and we're here if you need help picking one that fits your plans. Just tell us what you want to use it for, and we'll point you to the right one.

About Our Garden Workshops

Expand your capabilities with our range of Garden Workshops. Unlike standard sheds, these structures are engineered for serious projects, offering the headroom, durability, and security required for DIY enthusiasts, craftspeople, and home businesses. Whether you need space for woodworking machinery or a dedicated hobby room, our collection provides a robust solution.

We stock models featuring heavy-duty Tongue and Groove Workshops construction, ensuring a weather-tight seal and long-term stability. For those prioritizing longevity, our Pressure Treated Workshops offer superior resistance against rot and decay. With distinct features like reinforced framing, wide double doors for easy access, and high eaves for extra vertical storage, these buildings are designed to work as hard as you do. Every model comes with our 10 Year Anti-Rot Warranty and Free UK Delivery, giving you peace of mind from the ground up.


Choosing Your Garden Workshop

Selecting the right workspace involves balancing size, security, and material. If you require significant floor space for benches and tools, look at our Large Timber Workshops, which range from compact 8x6 models up to expansive 20x10 sizes.

Security is often a primary concern for customers storing expensive equipment. We offer Windowless Security Workshops to keep contents out of sight, or you might consider our Bike Storage solutions for specific high-value items. Material quality is paramount; we primarily utilize 12mm+ cladding rather than overlap, ensuring structural integrity.

Prices generally start from £599 for compact models, rising to £2,499 for premium, large-scale buildings.

🏗️ Foundation Advice: Before purchasing, consider your foundation; a solid base is critical. For guidance, read our guide on How to Build a Concrete Shed Base. If you are looking for a dual-purpose growing space, you might also browse our Potting Sheds or Wooden Greenhouses.

Frequently Asked Questions about Garden Workshops

  • What is the difference between a shed and a workshop?

    A Garden Workshop typically features thicker framing, higher eaves for headroom, and wider doors compared to a standard shed. They are designed for active use and heavy equipment rather than just passive storage.

  • Do I need planning permission for a garden workshop?

    Most workshops fall under "Permitted Development" rights if they are under 2.5m tall (at the eaves) and do not cover more than 50% of your garden. However, always check with your local council, especially for larger structures.

  • How much do garden workshops cost?

    Our range caters to various budgets, starting at £599 for compact heavy-duty models and reaching £2,499 for premium, large-scale timber buildings with advanced features.

  • What base do I need for a heavy-duty workshop?

    Due to the weight of the timber and equipment, a flat, level, and solid base is essential. We recommend a concrete or paved base. See our guide on How to Build a Concrete Shed Base for full instructions.

  • Can I install electricity in these workshops?

    Yes, many customers retrofit electricity for lighting and power tools. While we supply the building shell, we recommend hiring a qualified electrician to install a safe, armoured cable supply from your main house.

  • How do I add accessories like staging or extra vents?

    We make this simple. On each greenhouse product page, we list all compatible accessories—from staging and shelving to extra vents and rainwater kits. You can select everything you need in one place, ensuring it's perfectly tailored to your chosen greenhouse model before you add it to your basket. THIS MEANS THAT YOU SEE ONLY THE ACCESSORIES THAT ACTUALLY WORK/FIT WITH THE GREENHOUSE YOU ARE BUYING. WE HAVE BEEN SELLING GREENHOUSES FOR OVER 15 YEARS AND KNOW EXACTLY WHAT WORKS!
