Simon Bowler | Yorkshire Wooden Hot Tub Surrouds

Yorkshire Wooden Hot Tub Surrounds


Wooden hot tub surrounds are the key to maximise the use of hot tubs in the British climate. We provide bespoke solutions designed and installed in and around Yorkshire, for exactly that purpose. Ranging from open air pergolas providing some shelter from the elements to covered gazebo style structures. These types of buildings increase the visual and practical aspects of your hot tub. Be it pressure treated softwood, green oak or any other hard wood, a wooden hot tub surround is sure to entice you outside  into the water and get maximum pleasure from your hot tub. 
For gazebos, we are happy to use a wide range of roofing materials to complement the existing garden and architectural surroundings.  This could be number 1 grade western red cedar shingles, slate, clay tiles, rosemary tiles. The options are endless.  To achieve a decorative internal finish between the exposed roof rafters, we can clad our roofs with tongue and groove boards to match the timber used throughout the main structure. Whilst adding structural integrity to the roof, the boards also hide the hi-tech breathable waterproof membrane from sight. As well as our unique designs it is this attention to detail that separate our bespoke structures from mass produced kits and other less considered alternatives.
We regularly design additional features into our hot tub surround schemes such as wooden decking, fitted seating, drinks bars, lighting and outdoor entertainment systems. To achieve an appropriate level of privacy, carefully placed screening can also be added.
Whether your hot tub is an existing feature that needs turning into a complete all year round functional area or you would like us to handle the procurement and installation of a new unit within a bespoke scheme, we can help

Simon Bowler | Yorkshire Summer Houses

Yorkshire Summer Houses



Based in Harrogate, Yorkshire, we design and create bespoke summer houses or garden rooms for just about any sized garden. Our designs are a worlds apart from the well-known glorified garden shed! Dependant on their intended use, the aesthetics and quality of finish on the interior can be as important as the exterior. 
If your summer house is more of a focal point from the house, we can leave the structural grade stud work on the inside exposed. If your summer house is a place to spend time with friends and family for entertaining, we can include features such as a log burner, lighting and fitted furniture. Perhaps your summer house will be used for work as a home office. We can fully insulate and plaster, illuminate and electrify your new space to the specification of your choice. Our summerhouses can be as traditional or contemporary in style as you wish from the outside and as simple or as comprehensive as you require from the inside.
Our summerhouses can be constructed from several different types of timber including green oak and pressure treated softwood. We can clad the exterior in western red cedar boards or shingles, log lap style tongue and groove or chunky 6” x 1” weather board style cladding.
