Another garden room completed in Surbiton 🙌

Really pleased with how this one came together — black cladding, statement doors and a simple landscaped finish completely transformed the space.

We’ve been working hard behind the scenes lately, so we can’t always stay on top of our posting commitments — but rest assured, we’ve got a LOT of content to share 👀

Here are a few nighttime shots of our beautiful annex project in Esher.

Honestly, we still can’t believe how amazing this build turned out. From the main annex right through to all the finishing details, it’s been a serious transformation.

We’re also just finishing the outdoor kitchen, pergola, lean-to and landscaping, so stay tuned… the full finished result is coming soon 🔥

Our first week in Surbiton 👌🏻

From the initial landscaping and site preparation, through to installing the ground screw foundations and getting the main structure up — all in just 5 days.

A pretty serious transformation for one working week, and a great example of how quickly a properly planned garden room project can start taking shape.

Big thanks to Direct SIPs ltd for their fantastic panels, system and service. Also a big thanks to FIRST BASE Ground Screws for providing their unbeatable screws which made light work of this ground.

GROUND SCREW FOUNDATIONS — SURREY & UK-WIDE

After installing ground screw foundations across Surrey and further afield, we’ve decided to properly build out this side of the business.

The aim is simple: make ground screws easier to understand, easier to specify and easier to buy — whether you’re a homeowner, builder, landscaper, garden room company or working on a larger commercial project.

We can help with:

🔩 Ground screw supply & installation

📐 Foundation layouts and advice

🧪 Pull testing

🏡 Garden rooms, decking, cabins & outbuildings

👷 Trade & commercial projects

🌳 Sites where digging or concrete isn’t ideal

🇬🇧 Projects across the UK

We’re also building out technical guides, pricing information and project examples so people can actually understand whether ground screws are right for their project before wasting time getting quotes.

If you’ve got a project coming up, send me the dimensions/plans and postcode and I’m happy to give you an initial idea of what would be required and a ballpark cost.

Ground screws for the win! Huge thanks to from for going above and beyond to help us get this job on track. No matter the obstacles, ground screws are a solid option for difficult ground and circumstances.

Ground screws installed in just 1 day! 🚀

No concrete base. No waiting for concrete to cure. No unnecessary mess.

We installed the ground screw foundation and timber subframe in a single day, creating a strong, accurate foundation ready for the customers shed.

Faster installation, less disruption and a more sustainable alternative to traditional concrete foundations.
