What is a Wooden Garage?

Wooden garages and timber garage buildings are stand alone structures that are separate from the house, which increase the amount of living space you have at home. They are much cheaper to build than a costly extension, and are often added without the need for planning.

A wooden garage is specifically most suited to house classic cars and motorbikes due to their ambient temperature. They also provide a stable environment that is free from condensation during the winter months.

The construction is much stronger than a garden shed, however, because they are outbuildings, they are still considered to be within permitted development. The permitted development requirements do provide rules that need following, but we talk about that further down this page.

Benefits of a Timber Garage

If you are looking for extra space, then a pre fabricated timber garage should be something that you seriously consider. Firstly, if you can quickly install it on your premises providing you have a concrete pad. Secondly, the cost of a brick built equivalent is far greater than a wooden structure of the same size.

If you currently have an integral garage, you can easily convert that into an extra bedroom, gym or kitchen extension. The storage space can be regained with a wooden garage, whilst the modern day cars can now live outside.

Ideal for Storage

Wooden garages are the perfect place for storing classic cars and motorbikes. With an ambient temperature and a dry environment, the older vehicles stay rust free, which is essential if you want to keep increasing it’s value.

For extra storage you can make use of the vaulted roof space, whilst the walls are also suited for hanging items such as ladders and car parts.

A great tip is to add a window over the work bench, so natural light helps with the tricky issues that need sharp eyesight and co-ordination.

Our timber garages include vents in the gable ends, to ensure the necessary ventilation flows naturally through the building.

Take The Tour

Look inside the garage to see the construction and the optional extras that are available.

As we show you round the building, one half of the wooden garage has the standard finish. This shows the vertical wall studs and the roof purlins.

On the other side the garage has lining on the walls and ceiling. Please note we have painted it for show purposes – this would need to be done by others after assembly.

You can see a number of garages at our show centre – click the button for more details

Pitched Roof Wooden Garages

The roof trusses (or apexes) are the triangular part are roof, and are traditionally at the front and the back of the buildings. This is true on most single timber garages, however on double and triple garages tend to have gables on the sides of the building, meaning the the doors are located under the guttering.

Single garages are often built to be 2.5m high for permitted development reasons, usually as they are sited close to boundaries. If the structure can be 2m or more from the boundary, then they can be taller than 2.5m high. This is usually the case for double, triple and quadruple garages, especially if there is sufficient space to be away from the boundary.

The maximum height for a pitched roof building within permitted development is 4m tall. This equates to a garage with a 7m gable end, with a roof pitch at 20 degrees.

Mono Roof Garage

This is a great option for those looking to have a double, triple or quadruple garage without planning permission. They are designed to meet the current planning guidelines, as they are 2.5m high. This option complies to permitted development, even when the building is close to the boundary, and are an excellent solution for storage or a workroom.

For those that are over 30 square metres, you may require to have building control and fire resistance if within 1m from the boundary.

Cart Lodge Garages

The Cart Lodge looks very similar to an Oak Framed timber garage, especially when clad with feather edge boards. It doesn’t take long for the tanalised softwood posts to mellow to a golden oak appearance, giving you the same look for a fraction of the cost.

To achieve really stunning Cart Lodge, add Tapco slates and line the overhangs – then enjoy the look of an Oak Framed building, whilst saving a fortune.

Bespoke Timber Garages

A great advantage of manufacturing the wooden garages at our factory, is the ability to create a design that suits your needs.

Take this 6.5m wide x 12.2m wide garage for example, as it has one set of double garage doors in the front gable end.
Not only do the large garage windows allow a good amount of light, but the velux windows in the roof add extra light and ventilation.

The price for this building is simply calculated by adapting a standard building, whereby the customer also has chosen anthracite grey doors and windows to match the grey felt tiles and the black guttering.

Single Timber Garages

Single garages are usually constructed with the doors in the gable end.

Eaves height can be 2.0m plus the single course of bricks, with a ridge height of 2.5m – for planning.

Alternatively the eaves height can be 2.15m, to allow for a normal 2.1m high door. Roof pitches on the taller buildings are 20 degrees, which give and overall height range of  2.8m to 3.3m high.

Should you require a 30 degree pitched roof for planning reasons, please contact us for details.

Single Wooden Garages

Double Wooden Garages

Double garages can be built with the doors in the gable end, or under the guttering.

Doors in the gable end are 2.15m to eaves, plus the single course of bricks. The ridge height is between 3.2 and 3.7m depending on the truss width. We can increase the eaves height to 2.3m if required.

Doors under the guttering have an eaves height of 2.3m plus the single course of bricks, and the ridge height will be between 3.3m and 3.9m depending on the depth.

The roof pitch will be 20 degrees if we are providing the roof covering, but can be 30 degrees (or more) if you require a clay or slate tiled roof. This would need to be finished by a roofer, who would install the battens,  tiles and the soffits.

Within the price are single up & over doors, however customers can opt for wide doors if required. Contact us for details.

Double Wooden Garages

Triple Timber Garages

3 Bay wooden garages are usually constructed with the doors under the guttering, so that the ridge line runs from left to right.

Eaves height will be 2.3m plus the single course of bricks, and the ridge height will be between 3.3m and 3.9m depending on the depth.

The roof pitch will be 20 degrees if we are providing the roof covering, but can be 30 degrees (or more) if you require a clay or slate tiled roof. This would need to be finished by a roofer, who would install the battens,  tiles and the soffits.

Within the price are single up & over doors, however customers can opt for wide doors if required. Contact us for details.

Do Wooden Garages Need Planning?

Potentially!

Wooden garages are considered to be permitted development in most locations. Providing you are in the back garden, you can build on half of the plot as long as you don’t protrude past the front of the house.

If you are within two metres of the boundary, the new building can be up to 2.5m high, and even taller if you are over two metres away from the boundary line. This allows you to have a pitched roof up to four metres, and a flat roof up to three metres tall.

Should you be in areas of outstanding natural beauty, within grounds of a listed house, or in a garden flat, you are likely to require planning permission.

Roofing Options

STANDARD OPTIONS

FELT TILE ROOF:

This lightweight roofing felt provides a double layer of felt shingles, giving a smart finish to the garage building. In addition is an underfelt that provides the third layer of protection, to provide a long lifespan to the standard finish. Available in Slate Grey or Dual Brown, with colour coded verge and ridge trims.

METAL ROOF:
Steel sheets coated with plastisol, offering a 40+ year lifespan. Available in a wide range of colours, this metal roofing sits onto a layer of underfelt, to protect against any condensation that forms on the underside of the sheet. The OSB boarding also soundproofs the garage, so that it remains quiet inside when it rains.

UPGRADE OPTIONS

TAPCO SLATE:
A superb alternative to real slate, especially as the lightweight properties allow us to install quickly and cost effectively. Tapco adds a depth to the roof as opposed to the flat looking felt tiles, and adds a bucket load of character to your new building. Particularly suited to Cart Lodges, and Feather Edge garages.

CEDAR SHINGLES:
Just like Tapco, the Cedar Shingles add that depth of roof that felt tiles can’t match. However unlike any other roof covering, there is no symmetry with cedar shingles, as they are different widths and different colours. Please note tat they silver and curl over time, however this look just be the look that you are hoping to achieve

PRICE ON APPLICATION

MINERAL FELT:
Grey mineral felt is also available if you need to trim the budget, or you’re fitting your own roof covering.

ONDULINE:
Black onduline is a compressed felt version of the corrugated tin roof. This option is priced on application and is available for all buildings. Please note that we add the Onduline onto OSB boarding that has been lined with an underfelt. This encourages the Onduline to perform much better than if it were fitted directly to the purlins.

TILED ROOF:
We can supply and fit trusses that are spaced at 600mm centres, in order for clay or slate tiles to be fitted. Priced on application, the customer will need to batten the trusses, tile the roof and fit the soffits.

Wooden Garage Groundwork

For more details about the groundwork, including how to construct the base, please click the button below

Garage Base Details

Please tell me...

Can I have a Car Lift?

In short – yes. The best way for a car lift to be installed is to have the gable ends on both sides of the garage, meaning the doors are under the guttering. The roof trusses are usually 3m apart, and will accept a car being lifted into the vaulted ceiling.

Depending on the depth of the timber garage, plus the size and shape of the car, will determine how high you can lift from ground level.

Single garages can also incorporate a car lift, but it could mean roof trusses are located in specific position, to ensure clear roof space above. We can often accommodate this within the design, however you will need to raise the subject during the quoting stage.

We have increased the eaves height of several buildings, as customers have often used the car lifts for extra storage. If this appeals to you, then planning permission is likely to be required as the eaves height exceeds 2.4m.

Can I fit solar panels?

This question gets asked quite a lot. In principal, yes you can, however this would need to be done
independently by a solar panel installer. In terms of weight, the solar panels are light enough for the
garage roof to accommodate providing they are on a lightweight aluminium frame.

If starting the project from scratch, we would recommend

Can I fit my own garage doors?

We can supply and install wooden double doors or single width up & over doors. However in some cases, it may be that you require a double width door or a different type of door. For example, a roller door far more suitable if you are having a car lift.

It could also be that you have some doors on an existing garage, and you would like to re-use them.

If any of these scenarios fit your specific requirements, please let us know during the configurator stage, so we can provide the discount.

Please note that we are unable to install doors from an existing building or another supplier.

What groundwork is required for a garage?

Concrete Pad & Single Brick Course – Scroll down for full details:

150mm compact hardcore: DPM: 100mm concrete: Single course of semi-engineering bricks

Please allow 50mm additional concrete in addition to the size of your garage.
Your groundwork plan is issued when your order is placed and your final design is confirmed.
We allow a 5mm tolerance for the brick course – please use a laser level when setting the bricks.

In most cases the base is too large to dig by hand, hence a local contractor will be required to do the groundwork for you.

You start by digging out the ground down to a depth of 10 inches, with any spoil either removed by skip off site, or dispersed somewhere else on site.
Secondly the land / mains drains will be put in place, and soak aways will be constructed. The soak away will be a deep pit, about 1m x 1m x 2m deep and filled with gravel, with the drainage piped into the top of it. This is mainly to take the rainwater from the guttering.

Once the drains are prepared, the hardcore is put in to a depth of 150mm and compacted down. Once compacted, the shuttering around the edge is put in place.
The concrete is to a depth of 100mm, and should be a c35 mix, or a mix with fibres. For example a 6m x 6m square base will need 6m x 6m x 0.1m = 3.6 square metres of concrete. A tamped finish is sufficient, although a floated finish will be smoother. Timescale for this should be a single day.

Once the concrete has been laid for a couple of days the brick course can be fitted. This should take about half a day for the 6m x 6m base.

Can I have a garage within permitted development?

In a word, yes
Single garages have a choice of a pitched roof or a single slope roof at 2.5m high – which is within permitted development in most cases.

Double and triple garages will need to have a single slope roof to be 2.5m high.

Double & triple garages with a pitched roof will need to be 2m from the boundary to be within permitted development as they are taller than 2.5m high.

The size I required isn’t listed, can you still build it?

The price list has been created to give a price for our most common sizes. If you require a different size to fit in a space available, please contact us to get an accurate price.

Because each building is individually created for you, a guide for the price would be the closest to the size that you are looking to have. Please do get in touch on 01926 815757 and talk to us about your project.

How long will my building take to build on site?

Garden Rooms are usually constructed within 1-2 days (up to 6.2m x 3.6m sizes) depending on the final specifications.

Garages up to 6.1m x 6.1m are usually constructed within 1 day. Larger buildings will often take 2 days on site.

Commercial Buildings usually take 1 week on site – depending on the final specification.

How long will my building last?

We regularly have customers that have buildings re-roofed at 15 and twenty years old – who are quite confident that their buildings will last double that time if they get general maintenance and care.
This building was taken by a customer and we have worked out that it was 18 years old, and was still original. The customer has painted the building regularly with Protek Woodstain.

This garden office is 12 years old and has been regularly treated with Dark Oak wood protector. It features timber doors and windows, along with brown felt tiles.

This garage is 24 years old and still has it’s original layer of green mineral felt.

What is the lead time?

The lead time for a building can vary between 2 – 6 months.

You are welcome to book in advance to secure a delivery slot, and still make adjustments to the design up to the point that the base has been constructed.
(Please note that items that have been specifically order for you will still need to be paid for)

Is tanalised timber waterproof?

Tanalised timber is not waterproof, so it is still subject to the natural expansion and contraction as the moisture content in the surrounding atmosphere changes. It advised that a water repellent (clear or colour) treatment is applied to not only maintain the appearance of the building but also to help to exclude moisture being absorbed by the timber surfaces.

Please explain the garage door options available?

Garage Doors
The garage door default option are Metal Up & Over Canopy Style doors. The standard size of the doors are 2440mm wide x 2135mm high.
Single garages are priced with 1 set, double garages with 2 sets, triple garages with 3 sets and so on.

We offer the following upgrades to the doors that come as standard:

  • Framed Barn Style Double Doors
  • Cedar Clad Framed doors
  • Metal Up & Over Fully Retractable doors
  • Cedar Up & Over doors

Please explain the window options available?

We have suppliers for u-PVC and aluminium windows, all of which can be fitted into any of our buildings.

u-PVC Windows are the standard option for Garden Rooms and Offices due to their maintenance free properties. Available in a a choice of colours, but usually supplied in the popular Anthracite Grey or Black. The u-PVC windows can be fitted into any of our buildings and it is becoming increasingly more common to have them in garages and workrooms.

Aluminium is usually provided as bi-fold doors. Windows are available in Aluminium again available in a range of colours – with Anthracite grey being the most popular choice. You can select u-PVC as this also matches the Aluminium Bi-Fold doors.

Please explain the cladding options available?

Shiplap – 16mm x 125mm Scandinavian Redwood machined to our unique profile, with an extra long rebate to allow for natural movement of timber. It is pressure treated to a light green colour to protect against rot & decay for 15 years and is the ideal choice for customers who like a smooth finish and little maintenance.

Feather Edge – 25mm x 150mm home grown spruce with a sawn finish, that provides a much thicker and heavier look to the shiplap. Again it is pressure treated in a light green colour, and is the ideal cladding for customers looking for a traditional looking building that is full of character. The size and weight of the feather edge along with the manufacturing processes mean that this board is a more expensive option over the shiplap cladding.

Cedar – 12mm x 100mm Tongue & Groove cladding machined to create a modern looking finish. Each board is unique as this beautiful cladding naturally ranges from a dark hardwood to a light pine in colour thus creating a fantastic looking natural building. The hardwood properties of Cedar mean that it hardly expands or contracts during changes in weather, whilst it also has it’s own unique protection against rot, decay and insect infestation. Whilst the Cedar will fade in the sunlight, it is a must for customers looking for that wow factor on a garden room or garage, and it will continue to offer that feeling especially if protected against UV rays with Restol Oil.

Please explain the roofing options available?

Pitched roof buildings can have any of the roofing options that we provide, whereas the single slope buildings are only available with steel roofing sheets.

Felt Tiles is standard on the pitched roof garden rooms and garages. They are created in a sheet format that has 4 tiles on each sheet – the above tile covers the lower sheet by 50% to provide a double layer of tiles. In addition to this we also cover the roof with breathable underfelt before the tiles are fitted – which creates a 3 layer roofing system with an average lifespan of 15 years.

Steel Roofing Sheets are covered with plastisol and available in a range of colours. It is fitted to the roof onto the breathable underfelt to create a 2 layer roof covering that is condensation free. When fitted to the Garden Offices the insulation in the roof ensures virtually no noise is heard during inclement weather. Average lifespan is 25 years for the steel sheeting.

Onduline Roofing is a standard roof finish for stables. It is felt and bitumen compressed into a corrugated format and can be nailed directly onto the purlins with or without boarding underneath. For the optimum life expectance of 15 years we would recommend boarding and underfelt as a base for the Onduline to sit onto. The Onduline can sit directly onto the purlins however this will reduce the average lifespan of the product. (Only available on equestrian buildings).

Tapco Slate is a perfect solution for customers looking for a tiled roof look, but would like the building supplied & fitted by one company. Fitted onto boarding, underfelt & battens the Tapco slate is a man made lightweight roofing solution that appears as realistic as natural slates. Available in a range of colours, with a maximum roof pitch of 25 degrees, the average lifespan is 40 years for this roof finish.

Green mineral felt is a polyester based felt and is much thicker and stronger than normal shed roofing felt that you would buy from a DIY store. Average lifespan is 6-8 years.

Clay or Slate Tiles @ 30 degrees. Customers that require this finish will require a tiler to supply & fit the battens, membrane, tiles and soffits for this option. Warwick Buildings will obtain the trusses and install them at 600mm centres in readiness for the tiler to continue from that point. The two end trusses will be clad, however please note that there will not be any overhangs to the gable end on this option.

How much clearance do I need around my building?

We require a minimum of 600mm around the building to be able to fit the cover strips and guttering on the outside of the building.

If you have less space available please contact us on 01926 815757, as we will discuss the options available on an individual basis – it may be that we can still accommodate your project.

What can I have without planning?

Buildings close to a boundary will need to be 2.5m high. If you require a taller building without planning you will need to be more than 2m away from your boundary.
You will need to locate your building either to the side or to the back of the house – buildings in front of the house will need planning permission.

Please note that the customer is responsible for planning permission, and may need to contact the council for full clarification of their permitted development rights.

If you require planning permission, you will need a local planning consultant or architect to prepare the drawings required for a planning application. We can provide the information for you to allow the drawings to be produced. You can then either submit the application yourself or employ someone to do so on your behalf.

What maintenance is required?

The weather, location and the sun can all have an effect on buildings, however throughout our 35 years we understand how our product works and how it stands up to the test of time.

Your maintenance schedule should be:

  • To clean the gutters out to keep free from debris
  • Adjust doors and windows that have expanded or contracted through weather conditions
  • Remove debris from the roof
  • Treat the outside of the building as required to maintain an attractive appearance. (This provides a waterproof coat to the timber and keeps the moisture content of the wood consistent – which in turn improves the stability of the timber, and reduces the expansion & contraction of the timber)

Our guarantee is in respect of design and manufacturing faults, corrosion and rot for 10 years from the date of installation.

    We bought a curved roof office last year - so the next studio naturally was built by you.

  • Well made and sturdy, never damp or wet inside, been well worth the money.

    I've had one of these garages for around 12 years and can't fault it, well made and sturdy, never damp or wet inside, been well worth the money.

  • We are so glad to have found you.

    We are so glad to have found you. We are surrounded by 'bespoke' garden office companies here in London - but your range is just as impressive. The showroom visit sealed the deal for us + we are thrilled with our new garden office. Your prices are much more reasonable than most, and your team have been FANTASTIC from start to finish.

  • Great to support local business

    Very professional throughout. Being able to view the product and discuss design and alterations was very important, especially when spending this amount. Seeing the product is key, plus being local - it was great to support local business.

  • See google review

    Not many people add a Google review as well as sending back their aftersales questionnaires. Mike was delighted with the new garden office and rated the office team as outstanding, and the on site team as excellent. The full review is on Google.

  • Excellent on site team

    Local customer and was recommended. The on site team were excellent, as were the office staff. 5 stars too for the showroom and website. Would certainly use you again if I moved house.

    Mr N Taylor

  • Three super buildings

    The first two buildings that we used for classrooms, were so good that we decided to dismantle one of the old sheds and have a new one in it's place. Thank you - the students and the staff are in heaven.

  • Everything I had hoped for.

    I was unable to visit the show site and so was a little concerned as to what the build quality would be like. I needn’t have worried as when the product was delivered it was everything I had hoped for.

    Mr Pygall

  • How amazing is that!

    My garden room was 24 degrees this morning without heating on - how amazing is that!

    Jean Clymer

  • We’re very happy with the quality.

    I have previously purchased THREE double garages from Warwick Buildings, the first over twenty years ago is still standing, although unsurprisingly, we re-roofed it. Currently I'm awaiting a quote for a workshop - but the similar one they delivered and erected two years ago is still like new, no issues at all. We're very happy with the quality.

    David Holmes

  • Loving the garden office

    I've known Warwick Buildings for a long time and I've been daydreaming about working from home in my very own garden office for years. Finally I've managed to connect the loose ends together, and I am now enjoying the increased enthusiasm that I get from the improved vista that overlooks the valley below. It's certainly been worth the wait. Loving the garden office

    M Cowing

  • Superb.

    Superb. I've just had a garage supplied and installed by Warwick, and have been very impressed with both the building itself and their customer service and support. The building was supplied and fitted ahead of schedule, which was nice. After initial installation there were a couple of minor snags, which Warwick addressed and put right first thing the next day. You can't ask for more than that. I would wholeheartedly recommend Warwick based on both the quality of their product and their customer service.

  • 23 Years old and looking fabulous

    Dear David You built the garage for me in Nov 2000 and the wood is as good today as when you built it and I’ve been very pleased with it. Rain stopped my Cuprinol painting this morning but I thought about the possibility of replacing the felt with Tapco slates, depending on price etc, as it has plenty of life left in it. Best wishes Mark D.

  • Best decision I’ve made! 

    Hi David Everything is working perfectly and I'm delighted with my decision to get the office - best decision I've made! I've already recommended you to my next door neighbour and they're looking into ordering from you too! Thanks for organising - much appreciated. Best wishes, Caren

  • It has enhanced our garden, the structure is very sound and looks great. Highly recommended.

    I was looking for an alternative to a standard concrete garage and found Warwick via google. I paid them a visit and was impressed with the standard of the wooden buildings they manufacture, so placed an order. Garage is now complete and I am very very pleased, it has enhanced our garden, the structure is very sound and looks great. Highly recommended.

    Mike Thornley

  • My previous garage is still good after 13 years

    I previously bought from you in 2007. Still the same quality, and service. My previous garage is still good after 13 years so I knew how good the quality of your garages was before I decided to buy this one. Your office staff were also excellent.

    Mr Ironside

  • Its still brilliant and good as new so many thanks.

    Hiya I bought a curved office room from you back in 2015, its still brilliant and good as new so many thanks. However I would really like to extend it to add a small kitchen and bathroom. Is this even possible? I seem to remember it was built in kit form so if I cut some of the wall out as doors to the extension will that ruin the integrity of the room? Just wondering if you had any advice on how I might be able to extend it? Many thanks Amanda

  • We are very pleased with the garage

    Hi Jake A little feedback and a request. I have been doing the necessary to protect our garage for the future - we are very pleased with the garage by the way - and wanted to share some pictures with you. Would you be able to tell us where you source your vent covers and confirm the size please - we need to match them on the fire boarding internally. Many thanks

    R Warrington

  • Great company – would certainly recommend.

    We've had two buildings from Warwick. First one over twenty years ago which we insulated and finished off ourselves. It's been brilliant so we had no hesitation to go back when we needed a second one. This time we chose a contemporary design which was fully kitted out, saving us time, money and arguments. Same lad that did the first one is still working there and takes care with the finishing touches. Great company - would certainly recommend.

    Hello, we bought one of your lovely garden buildings 5 years ago. We now need to move it. Any advice? Thank you ....... David,  Marcin and colleague moved the building successfully on Saturday.  Thanks for your help with this. Not all companies offer such after sales support.  Best wishes Brian Dimmock

  • I found them great and the building I bought is quality

    Well I'm just going to sell my 4 year old "traditional office" supplied by them as I don't use it much and came across these reviews. My office is (as stated) four years old. Still 100% water tight everything is perfect despite being under a tree all the time. I found them great and the building I bought is quality....

  • Add a smart home switch

    The building is brilliant - service was fantastic. Would like to have the option of a smart light switch so Alexa can turn on the lights.

  • Value for money

    I chose Warwick because they adapted my office to suit me, and they would always update any changes in writing. OK the lead time was a bit longer than I'd anticipated, but that meant they were busy, so it gave me confidence that my money was safe. The team arrived and built it in next to no time, and they even cleared up after themselves... I'd have no hesitation in recommending them

    Sam

  • The team were excellent.

    The team putting up the room were excellent - polite and efficient. You were recommended by our daughter in law - and we will pass on the recommendations.

  • Very helpful.

    Visited here to get an idea of the possibilities for a new garden office workshop we are looking to have built. They have examples of the various buildings that appear on the website, makes it a lot easier to picture the options, and to get real idea of scale. The gentlemen we spoke to was very helpful. Now just need to put our design on paper.

  • Professional staff and a stunning product.

    Fantastic company. Did exactly what they said they would. Professional staff and a stunning product.

  • 30 Years old – still looks fantastic

    I'm finally returning as a customer, as I would like 2 buildings for the house I'm moving to in Norfolk. The last one is 30 years old and still looks the same as the day it was put up. No rot, no decay - just a brilliant building. The overhangs really protect it, and I've only re-felted it once in all that time. I'm delighted you're still in business as I'm not looking anywhere else for the new ones.

    Mr Ford

  • Excellent Job

    5 stars on every aspect, but an extra mention for the on site team as they did an excellent job installing my garden room
