Tanalised Bearers
Prolong the life of your building by raising it up on tanalised bearers. These 3” x 3” pressure-treated timbers allow additional air circulation under your building thus protecting your floor joists and floorboards during wet weather.
Heavy Duty Floor 18mm
A really popular optional extra, ideal for buildings that are used regularly or if heavy items are to be stored inside. The playhouses are fitted as standard with a 12mm Tongue & Groove floor.
Spray Painted Building
Your new playhouse can be spray-painted in a range of over 30 different colours. The building gets factory dipped in the standard way; it will then receive 2 coats of Teknos spray paint to give it a beautiful finish. You can have the building painted all in one colour or choose a primary colour for the main body of the building and a secondary colour for the door, windows and trim. A 125mm touch-up tin of your chosen colour(s) is supplied with the building.
Stable Door
Playhouse doors can be split in half horizontally to create a stable door.
Extra Height
Increase the height of your building as required by specifying additional boards in the walls.
Premium Roof Felt
Our playhouses are fitted with standard green mineral felt but you can up-grade to tougher polyester-based green mineral felt on the roof, ideal to prolong the life of your new garden building.
Felt Roof Tiles
Available in 4 different colours, this is a popular addition for playhouses and summerhouses but is also available on sheds. Colours available are – Black, Red, Green or Brown.
Additional Paint
For spray-painted buildings additional paint can be ordered.

What is the delivery lead time?
This can vary depending on the time of year. The current lead time is approx. 10 weeks, add an extra week for a painted finish.
What is included in the price?
All prices include delivery, installation and VAT. Delivery restrictions may apply; see the Delivery Information tab for more details.
Has the timber on my new Playhouse been treated?
Yes the buildings are fully submerged in the dip-tank at the factory. They are treated with a Protek water-based treatment product in 'Red Cedar' colour. We recommend that the buildings are further treated with a quality timber treatment on an annual basis.
Can you provide an installation service?
Yes, it is included in the price. There are sometimes discounts available for delivery only if you would prefer to erect the building yourself.
Are the playhouse dimensions internal or external?
The dimensions given are external and in most instances are full Imperial measurements. When measuring, please allow for roof overhang.
What base do i need for my playhouse?
A flat, level slab or concrete base, the same size as the building as a minimum or ideally, slightly larger. Take care when laying a base near to a boundary fence or wall, please bear in mind that all buildings have side and rear roof overhang. If you need to know the overhang dimensions please ask for details. Timber decking also makes an ideal base providing it is flat, level and of sufficient size.
What kind of access do i need into the back garden?
Please consider the dimensions of your playhouse when ordering. The single storey playhouses tend to not cause access problems but the 2-storey ones require 7-8ft height access for some of the sections to be carried from the delivery vehicle to the base. We do not take buildings over garage roofs, high fences, walls etc. If necessary, buildings can be custom made in smaller components so they can fit through a restricted access; this carries a 12% surcharge.
Does my new playhouse come with a timber floor and roof felt?
Yes it does. All of our buildings come with a 12mm thick tongue & groove floor and standard green mineral felt. A felt roof tile upgrade is quite popular on playhouses and summerhouses.
Can i choose a colour for my playhouse?
The standard building is dip-treated but this can be up-graded to a spray-painted finish, there are over 30 colours to choose from.
What are the payment terms for playhouses?
We take a 15% deposit if the building is ordered in person at our premises and the balance is payable to the installers either in cash, BACS transfer or by credit / debit card. On-line orders are paid in full at the point of order.
What guarantee do i get with my building?
12 month guarantee against leakage, door sticking, lock failing etc. As timber is a natural product we recommend that you treat your new building within 3 months of installation and once a year thereafter.
What size vehicle will my new playhouse be delivered on?
Your building will be delivered on a Transit sized, flat bed vehicle.
