Timber garaging / Passmores

[EggsBenedict]

Was looking at timber garaging. At our new place, we'd like 2 carriage house type things arranged in an L shape 3 bay with 2 bays with doors on one side of the L and 2 bay on the other.

We looked at Passmores in Kent at the weekend, and they seem reasonably priced, good quality units, and we liked the people there - they seemed switched on, helpful and flexible.

Does anybody have any thoughts on:

1) Timber garaging?

2) Passmores?

Thanks...

This is going to sound a bit flash, but the new place has a workshop that i will put the lathe in. The garaging is for cars/bike and space to work. I'll kit out with leccy and so on, but I think 6" will be enough for the pad, but I will go more around the edges and fill with steel too.

Thanks for Chart - sounds like they were 'OK' - you didn't sound over the moon with them?

But the difference in price between building 5 bay blockwork garage and a similarly sized timber one would pay for that loading and more for the rest of my life I reckon!
