The Orchid Workshop

If you are considering an insulated building, it would also be beneficial to upgrade your windows from the standard 4mm glass, to double glazing units. As with standard double glazing units on your house, this will help regulate the temperature within your building throughout the year.

Felt

Our standard roof covering included in the price of all buildings, is grey polyester roofing felt. This felt is designed to provide waterproof longevity and not rip or crack over time, a higher quality felt than standard green mineral shed felt

Felt Tiles

Heavy duty square butt shingles, will outlast a standard felt roof and also have the aesthetic appeal of looking smart.

Sedum Living Roof

A natural living sedum roof will transform your building, these beautiful roofs encourage wildlife such as butterflies to your garden, as well as flowering and looking beautiful in the spring and summer. They provide excellent insulation to your building, and contrary to popular belief are almost maintenance free. Only requiring a brief watering if the summer months are particularly hot for an extended period of time.

Tin Roof

Our corrugated tin roof can be applied to both our Shepherd Hut curved roof, and pent or apex roofs. The tin is corrugated and galvanised, and will last the lifetime of your building with zero maintenance.

Insulate and line your building to get the most out of your space all through the year, an insulated building will keep your building cool in the summer heat, and warm in the colder months. We insulate your walls, floor and ceiling ensuring you get the best possible results. To insulate we use 40mm Celotex boards in your floor and ceiling, and in your roof we use double sided aluminium foil, double layer bubble sheets. We then offer two options for lining your building:

• Option 1 is with 12mm T&G boards from floor to ceiling;
• Option 2 is T&G below a dado rail, and hardboard above.

Both options include skirting board and back frames on doors and windows.

We also offer an upgrade to 90mm Celotex, this upgrade also requires the framework upgrade from 2"x2" to 2"x4".

Our electric package consist of the following all placed to your own design; single and double sockets (interior & exterior), tails for lights (interior & exterior) light switches, fuse box, trip switch and external mains hook-up point. Please note an electrician is required after installation to connect your building to your home fuse box.
