The Hampton summerhouse is a superb way of making the most of what can be a boring part of the garden or patio! Designed to fit neatly into the corner, the Hampton makes a perfect retreat. The building has two joinery quality opening windows and fully glazed, large double doors allowing plenty of light. It is constructed on 34mm square framing and clad with planed 12mm Shiplap tongue and groove boards made only from the highest grade, slow grown, FSC approved northern European pine. The floor is T&G and the roof is OSB. The Summerhouse is supplied with a dip treated base coat preservative ready for you to top coat to your own preference immediately after installation. (Imperial dimensions are approximate to the nearest foot, please refer to the exact metric dimensions in the data given) Allowance should be made for the roof overhang and access for painting and during installation. Following your order, you will be sent a link to choose your delivery day. On the morning of delivery day you will also receive live tracking information. Before you assemble your building, you will need a base which is flat and level to a sufficient size. Grass, soil or gravel are not sufficient as they will move with the weight of a building. Please note, we do not deliver to postcodes BT, JE, GY, IM, KW, PH, ZE, HS, IV, PA, AB, DD, FK, KY, G, KA, TD, EH, ML, CA, NE, LA, LL, SY, LD, SA, NP, CF, EX, TQ, PL, TR, PO.

Our new Hampton summer house is perfect. It arrived safely yesterday. Shire we're very good, gave notifications of where the delivery was on its journey and when delivery would arrive. The delivery driver was very careful, respectful and friendly. Telephoned when he was near to our house and followed instruction advice, parked considerately and unloaded carefully.
The instructions are very well written, we put our building together yesterday, will finish it today. Very pleased with our purchase. Thank you.

Easily went together, good instructions with just my wife and I(we are both in our seventies) putting it up.Well made, at a reasonable price, and delivered fairly quickly considering a shortage of sheds and delivery drivers. Very pleased with result.

Looking for a summerhouse, this one from Shires fitted the bill. Several retailers said out of stock, but ManoMano allowed ordering, so this, plus a very good price tempted me to order. Delivery was promised for the end of September and I half expected to be let down. End of August, however, I got a text to say delivery was in two days time, and it arrived as stated.
Instructions said it was a two man job, but I did it myself. Main parts fitted fine and summer house shell went up quickly once painted. Roof felt looked a bit flimsy and when I measured it was a bit short, so I bought a 10m roll of good stuff from Screwfix, along with some longer nails (the ones supplied were really short) and all was well.
Doors and windows fitted well, although I did not follow instructions and fitted these last. Glazing bars (112 of them) were cut too long so I had to trim them on my chop saw, paint them and pre-drill the nail holes to make glazing easier. Glass was better quality than stated being toughened, and fitted fine. All in all the completed summer house looks good and should last many years. Very pleased.
