Description

Make the most of a difficult corner. The Hampton Premium Summerhouse will add instant style to any garden and at a price that is too good to miss!

A great space to relax in and enjoy the outdoors even on those colder evenings.

The Hampton Premium summerhouse is packed with standard features not found in many summerhouses such as the proper joinery full glazed double doors with mitred beading. Two opening joinery windows. The matching criss-cross windows and doors not only let light flood into the summerhouse and are great for allowing plenty of air to flow in and out of the summerhouse, they also make this summerhouse look very stylish.

Dont forget the Hampton Premium summerhouse is also supplied with a tongue and groove floor

Produced to the highest standards using quality timbers from sustainable sources. Manufactured in the UK Shire are renown for their quality.

Shire buildings are made from a high grade ship-lap tongue and groove construction. This is distinguished from fast grown type timber used on cheaper sheds from other manufactures. Tongue and groove construction means the building is better sealed from the elements.

The timber used is a continental slow grown timber. Slower grown timber means tighter grain, extra strength and longer life.

Treatment: all Shire buildings are supplied with a factory applied first coat treatment in a honey brown water based product. The summerhouse will require a second coat wood preservative to be applied and you can use whatever colour you like to transform your summerhouse.

Walls are constructed using softwood planed tongue and groove shiplap pattern boarding. Actual thickness is 12mm.

Frame: A robust Planed 35x35mm (1 1/2' x 1 1/2') framework (walls and floor) that gives the building strength. Floor is planed tongue and groove matching pattern boarding. Actual thickness of timber is 12mm

Roof is constructed in 12mm Tongue and Groove with roof felt supplied.

Floor 12mm Tongue and Groove Floor

Windows are properly morticed and tenoned. They are opening, profiled, and weather resistant. ie The window has a unique profiled 'lip' that covers the aperture of the opening in the panel making it weather resistant. Casement stays have 2 levels of opening.

Doors. Joinery double doors glazed in 3mm horticultural glass

Glazing 3mm horicultural glass. All glazing is retained by profiled beading which is pre-mitred (no awkward corners to be cut).

Treatment: All Shire garden buildings are supplied pre-treated with a base coat to both sides in a golden brown water based industrial product (colour can vary from the picture shown). Shire the manufacturer recommends that you apply a water based top coat of your choice. This will protect the timber from weathering on your shed making it last longer and will need to be repeated accordingly in relation to the manufacturer's instructions.

Supplied flat packed for ease of handling and assembly. All fittings and felt are included in the price with clear easy to follow instructions.

"

By Lesley on 15th October 2022

"So pleased with our summerhouse. Well made. Like the fact the panels are in two pieces as a lot easier to handle. Delivery by very helpful driver. Thank you Elbec and Shire. "

By MrsDianneFletcher on 14th August 2020

"Pleased with our corner summer house ???? all as described a little problem with a damaged panel but soon put right will use your company again"

By Brian Kilford on 18th August 2017

"Absolutely perfect. The fact that the floor and back panels come in two pieces enabled us to bring the parts through the house as we have no rear access. Would recommend a very firm base as it is very solid."

By mr trevor hindle on 12th August 2017

"The Shire Hampton summer house we bought is really good quality. easy to build, good instructions too. Delivery driver was first class. very helpful by putting summer house neatly out of the way. Would recommend. Thank You Elbec."

By mr roger eldridge on 12th August 2017

"Good product for price. Delivery excellent as was the driver. Only quibbles ......... floor would have been better as one unit rather than having to screw two pieces together. Also floor tended to "bounce". Fixed by installing T & G loft boards as inner floor. Few holes left by knots coming out. Having said all this to get a summer house delivered for less than £600 is a bargain. Would recommend."

By Mrs Pauline Bysouth on 12th August 2017

"The summerhouse we bought from Elbec was delivered as scheduled. It was of a good quality and very reasonably priced. It was fairly easy to erect as my son is a carpenter, maybe someone with limited d.i.y skills may struggle a little. Each pane of glass had to be individually put in with the wooden beading provided which was very time consuming. Altogether though when erected a great product and I could thoroughly recommend."

By Michael wright on 15th May 2017

"We love a corner summer house it was delivered without any fuss and in perfect condition, painted it all which I would recommend before putting up and it took around five hours to erect very easy to follow instructions. It now looks brill unbelievable value for what's out there wish I could put a picture on."

By Jean Metcalfe on 22nd April 2017

"I would recomend Elbec to anyone. My summerhouse was delivered when arranged and delvery man could not have been more helpful putting it exactly where I asked. When I checked I was an item missing but contacted customer service as soon as I realised and it was sorted in a few days. "

By Mrs McLusky on 19th August 2016

"I would like to thank you for your exemplary customer service over my order of the summerhouse. I would also like to thank the delivery driver who was I understand punctual and so helpful. I was away at the time and my daughter took delivery, and the driver with the help of my grandsons carried the summerhouse round to the back garden. I don't know whether you have an employee of the month scheme, but if you do I would certainly recommend him for this months recipient Thank you again "

"Shire corner summerhouse: Received our summerhouse within 10 days in great condition and excellent quality. The summerhouse is better than I thought and well pleased. Great service great product just needs staining now Don't hesitate it's really great quality and easy to put together"

By Mrs Pearson on 26th November 2013

"Highly recommend: A very easy to navigate website led to my purchase of the Elbec corner summerhouse. Communication was excellent, rfom confirmation through to delivery. I liked that I was in change of the delivery times using their booking website but I was a bit disappointed that deliveries only seemed to be available on Mondays or Fridays, I therefore had to book a day off work to receive the item. The delivery driver was very helpful despite the pouring rain and he did his best to protect the product from the rain with some plastic sheeting. Assembly of the summerhouse was fairly straight forward, we did buy some extra screws thgouh as we used more than the instructions recommended to give a bit more stability. Now it is assembled and painted in heritage sage green with cream it looks very expensive and inviting. I can't wait to get the interior finished and ready for next spring :-) Mrs Pearson"

By Mrs J Lamb on 26th November 2013

"Amazing price and very good value: After reading poor reviews I was a bit concerned about my order for a summer house. No problem, it arrived on time and the two young men installed it in a very professional manner. Really good value for money. Mrs J Lamb"
