Description

Our Pod Kits give you the freedom to create the garden building of your dreams with the peace of mind that comes from ordering from an established British sawmill.

Available in four sizes, the frame and exterior are constructed from exactly the same high-quality materials as our factory-built pods whilst the interior is deliberately left unfinished, allowing you to fit out and finish in your own style.

Pod Kits are perfect for creating any space that requires bespoke fixtures and fittings such as a workshop or dark room, or simply reducing the cost of installing a garden room.

Practical design

Clad in either sustainable pressure-treated timber or heavy-duty felt shingles, our striking pod design is a winner in any location. The curved lines blend into the corner of a garden or make a statement on open ground whilst the recessed front porch is an attractive additional detail.

Functional as well as stylish, the pod’s breathable liner ensures the highest levels of protection against the weather and the fixings are stainless steel for longevity.

Interior inspiration

Unlike our factory-built pods, the kits come without doors, windows and other finishes as standard, although wall boarding and a choice of doors and windows can be added if required. This means you can design the space to your exact requirements. Need low lighting, sound insulation, multiple sockets or other very specific fixtures? No problem. The only constraint is your imagination!

Simple to build

Our kits come with full instructions and require only very modest DIY skills to assemble. All the parts and fixings are provided so you can make a start as soon as your delivery arrives.

Construction should take two people no longer than three days to complete:

Day 1 – Floor cassette and frame

Day 2 – External walls (membrane and pretreated timbers)

Day 3 – End walls and cladding

At the end of which, you’ll have a beautifully constructed blank canvas to make your own.

Your kit will be delivered to your door and contains everything you need to build and clad your timber or shingle pod. Build in a workshop or, if access is restricted or awkward, in situ.

Depending on the size, location and use of your pod, you might not require planning permission.

Every effort is made to adhere to the delivery times for our range of products but often where there is high seasonal demand these may alter, please see schedule below for typical lead times.

Timber Pods – 2-4 week lead time.

  • Our pods will arrive on a 32 ton rigid axel lorry that has a lorry-mounted Hiab crane.
  • Our pods arrive disassembled (requiring assembly) and are subject to the unloading criteria listed below.
  • Other than main highways we can only drive on hard landscaped or tarmac site roads.
    • We can not drive on grass or paddocks irrespective of the ground conditions.
    • The reach of the crane is limited to 6m radii from the centre of the delivery vehicle.
    • Deliveries and positioning more than 6m from the centre of the delivery vehicle will be subject to additional charges if required by the client.
    • We must be positioned off the highway to commence the unloading operation.

All our products are individually handcrafted by our specialist team and orders are processed and placed into production once any client specific items have been agreed.

Your pods will be delivered to your site by our external hauliers who have the lifting plans and certificated lifting chains and straps to complete this in a safe manner.

  • As a natural product your timber could twist, split, and bend under the changing seasonal conditions, this is nothing to worry about and only adds to the uniqueness of your structure and the structural integrity is in no way adversely affected.
  • We recommend that you treat your timber structure annually with an appropriate timber preservative that can be obtained from any recognised DIY chain, this will ensure the timbers have maximum protection and they will look great too.

If you need to relocate your pods, you should seek professional advice from a recognised lift specialist or crane company, and it is a legal requirement to have an Appointed Person in control of any lifting operations.
