Full details

The Shires Hampton Summerhouse is for homeowners looking to enhance their garden or patio space with a versatile and aesthetically pleasing structure. Its key benefit is providing a dedicated area for relaxation or dining outdoors, transforming a potentially underutilized space into a functional retreat. A caveat to consider is the necessity of a pre-existing flat and level base for proper installation. This handmade summerhouse features high-quality construction, including joinery-grade opening windows, a lockable double door, and durable Shiplap tongue and groove cladding made from slow-grown, FSC-approved pine.

Are the doors and windows lockable?

What are the approximate dimensions?

Troubleshooting

Summerhouse feels unstable after assembly.

Ensure the base is perfectly flat and level. Double-check all fixings are tightened securely according to the instructions.

Water ingress through the roof.

Confirm the roof felt has been installed correctly and sealed. Check for any gaps or damage to the felt and repair as necessary.

Doors or windows are stiff to open/close.

Check for any obstructions or warping in the timber. Adjust hinges if necessary or apply a light wax to the running edges.

Wood appears to be weathering prematurely.

Ensure a suitable top coat of preservative or paint has been applied evenly to all exterior surfaces. Reapply protective coatings annually or as recommended for your chosen product.
