Outdoor spaces and grounds: Website for garden structure builders
A website for garden structure builders that explains canopies, verandas, garden rooms and carports by timber, roof finish and foundation, so an enquirer has a realistic picture of what they want built.
What visitors want to know from garden structure builders.
Garden structure builders get enquiries from people who saw a veranda online and want the same thing in a garden of a completely different size. They do not know that a canopy fixed to the house is attached differently from a freestanding one, that a glass roof needs a heavier frame than polycarbonate, or that Douglas fir weathers differently from hardwood. Flat-pack kits at the DIY store plant a price in their heads that says nothing about made-to-measure work. Many sites show only lifestyle photos. The owner explains the same differences on the phone again and again, when a good site could help the visitor choose before calling.

Group structures by purpose
The offer is grouped by what the customer wants it for: sitting outside under cover, keeping the car dry, storage or a room to work in. Each type shows which structures fit, which timbers are common and which roof finish goes with them. Visitors find their wish without first learning words like purlin or post.
Explain timber and roof together
Each timber and roof finish gets photos of built work, with a short note on how it weathers, what upkeep it needs and what it means for light and noise underneath. A visitor sees why a glass roof needs a different frame from a tiled one. The wording comes from the people who build it.

Anyone starting an enquiry is first asked what shapes the design: freestanding or against the house, roughly what size, what ground it stands on and which roof finish they prefer. The page the visitor was reading comes along as the starting point, so the conversation begins with a concrete direction.
Connected to your software.
Garden structure builders often have a site with a photo gallery, a contact form and sometimes a price list for standard models. Project photos sit on the builders' phones or in a folder. We agree who selects and captions photos with timber, size and roof finish, and which supplier information on timber and roofing may be used. The owner or draughtsman writes the explanations on foundations and framing, because they know best which misunderstandings enquirers bring with them.
Standard models or only bespoke
Standard models with fixed sizes make it easy for a visitor to start and give a feel for price. Bespoke work is where the craft lies, but it needs more explaining. Many garden structure builders show a few base models as a starting point and then show how those are adapted to the garden, the house and the customer's wishes.
Explaining every timber or recommending one
An overview of every timber is complete but can be paralysing. Recommending one timber with the reasons, and briefly naming the alternatives, helps a visitor decide faster. Which route suits depends on whether you deliberately work with a few timbers or supply everything. Either works as long as the choice is intentional.
Covering planning questions on the site
Visitors often ask whether they need permission. That depends on the council, the position in the garden and the size, and an overconfident explanation can backfire. The site can explain which points generally matter and say that you check each situation, without giving a verdict on a particular garden.

Read the storyWhat goes on the website.
The site we build gets a structure by purpose, pages per timber and roof finish with your own photos and an enquiry that starts from the page being viewed. Before launch we test an ordinary question about a canopy against the back wall together, and a harder one about a freestanding pool house on soft ground at the end of the garden. Pages per service area and fuller guidance on timber upkeep are added as soon as the texts are ready.
View pricingHosting and careGood to know.
Explore pricing and optionsShould we publish prices for our models on the site?
You can for standard models with fixed sizes, as long as you make clear what is and is not included, such as foundations, installation and removal of waste. For bespoke work it works better to explain what the price depends on: size, timber, roof finish and the ground.
How do we show the difference from a flat-pack kit?
By explaining what happens beneath and within the structure: the foundations, the setting out in the garden and how the joints are made. Photos of details, such as the joint between post and beam or the junction with the house wall, say more than an overview shot.
Can a visitor put together a design themselves?
A visitor can state preferences for size, timber and roof finish. The full design is made together, because the garden, the house and the ground determine the structure. The preferences help prepare the first conversation and any site visit properly.
What should the site say about timber upkeep?
A short, honest explanation per timber: how it changes colour, whether it needs treating and what happens if it is left. Visitors appreciate hearing in advance that untreated timber turns grey, rather than finding out and calling about it a year later.
