I planned to build a garden room for a full-sized snooker table. After looking at some 'off-the-shelf' garden room options, I realised that I would need something more bespoke - nothing was large enough or constructed to a suitable standard. Luke and his company were recommended to me by a builder who had done work for me at my house previously. Luke came to talk about my plan and to see the proposed location. He took measurements and drew up some renderings from our combined ideas to show a 3D design. Once we had verified the required internal dimensions required to comfortably fit a full-sized snooker table, the design of the foundation screws layout and the floor joists was adapted to take the huge weight of a snooker table, and the final drawings were drawn up. From there, Luke took care of the architect plans, the planning application and the building regs - Work started on the planned date. The build standard, quality of work and finish are better than I could have imagined. It is by far the best room at the house. I am very happy with the outcome and I am pleased that I chose to go with Luke. I highly recommend Luke and Connection Timber Buildings.

I cannot recommend this company highly enough. From the very start of the process there was clear and helpful communication and really good advice to guide our design decisions. Everything was explained in advance and all the building and payment processes were exactly as described. All the team were friendly and helpful and the standard of workmanship is really high. They built a beautiful bespoke garden room and workshop which we are delighted with and I recommend them wholeheartedly.

Luke and the team completed a small, high spec, multi purpose garden room this summer and have been pleasure to work with. The quality of the build and adaptability of the team was impressive. Highly recommended.

We engaged with Luke and his team at the beginning of the summer to design and create a multi use space at the bottom of our garden and we are delighted with the result. From the design and consultation phase right the way through to the build, nothing was too much trouble and we now have exactly what we wanted with the space. The process is not a quick one, but this is because everything is done to a high specification, from the quality of the build, products used and the attention to detail. We also had a few bespoke elements added including a bar area and shelving. The team are extremely skilled and highly professional and will always consult with you before design decision needs to be made, even on the small stuff such as the direction of the lay of the decking. We highly recommend Luke and the Connection Timber Buildings Team.

Bought a new house and able to add a lovely new garden room within 2 months, that provided remote working. Luke, Mark and Jack were easy to work with, tidy and considerate with a high standard of finish. Would recommend. Andrea and Bob.

Design That Fits

Every Project

Every project at Connection Timber Buildings begins with collaboration, but the design process looks different depending on the type of build and the level of detail required. We tailor our design services to suit your needs, offering guidance, creativity, and clarity at every stage.

For Timber Homes, Extensions & Loft Conversions, we recommend clients appoint an architect to design and produce the necessary drawings. If you don’t already have one, we can happily recommend one of our trusted partners to suit your project. Once your plans are ready, simply forward them to us, and we’ll guide you through the next steps, including detailed quotations and scheduling.
