Timber Garage Installation
Discussion
I had a look at their place last Sunday and they do seem to be the best I've seen. If you've been there the large garage which they use as a gym & recording
studio is the sort of building I'm interested in. Should be able to hold 4 cars plus a workshop and office. Looks like taht's where I'll be going. Plus they
are onle a few miles away from us.
Thanks

If you want something properly substantial you could just get a local contractor (and there are plenty good ones around Deeside) to build something for you. You would need drawings from an architecture firm, but you will likely need these anyway for planning/building warrant purposes.
A 4-car garage with workshop and office built on proper foundations with a timber clad engineered 140mm timber frame with attic trusses and a slate roof would likely be in the region of £40-50K, plus VAT and fees.
Probably a good bit more expensive than the semi-prefabricated log cabins etc, but the final product would be a whole different thing.

I know you're looking in the NE, and I was in the Central Belt, but I'm putting this out there as another option. I sourced a timber kit (bespoke size) from a company down south for a triple garage with room above. I then had a local groundworks team built the foundations and a local joiner put the whole thing together for me. He also built some of the components for me cheaper than the kit company, namely the external staircase and the windows. We also had the gable end custom glazed. I then used a local architect firm to pull together the BW drawings and I dealt with the Planning Application personally.
In the interests of full disclosure, the kit company weren't the best at customer relations and did make a hash of a couple of elements. Some were fixed, others weren't. But in the end, I got a triple garage of a size I wanted. I then sold the house and probably lost most of the investment due to the short turn around between finishing and selling (long term investment and all that).
The photos show it nearly completed, there were still a few rough edges to deal with like fireboarding the garage ceiling for BW purposes, sorting the landscape around the garage, plus the final furnishing of the room (office). But you get the idea. Size wise, each bay was set to be 6m deep and 2.9m wide.
