Bespoke summer house 

Summer houses continue to enjoy great popularity. They allow you to create a personalised space to relax in your own garden. They can be tailored to the style of the building, the available space and your preferences. How to order such structures? What affects their price and why is it worth having them in the garden? 

Why choose a bespoke summer house? 

Custom built summer houses have many advantages – especially compared to ready-made structures available on the spot. Why should you choose them? 

• A bespoke summer house can be of any size and shape. The customer decides on its layout. Together with a specialist, they create a design of a house that will work best on their plot. 
  
  
• Made to measure summer house is a good choice where the ground has a specific shape or slope. The structure can be adapted to the site conditions. 
  
  
• The customer can independently decide on the style and colours of their summer house. It is up to them whether the design is minimalist and modern, or decorated with interesting carvings or colours.
  
  
• Bespoke summer houses can be equipped with windows, doors, platforms, verandas, and even drainage systems. The customer decides on the installation of such elements, depending on their needs and budget. 
  
  
• When creating a bespoke summer house, the customer can adapt the space to their own needs. In such houses, for example, toolboxes, storage compartments for sunbeds, laptop worktables or hammock hooks can be installed. 

A bespoke summer house will work perfectly if there are no ready-made structures available on the market that meet your needs. Altering houses that are available from stock could be very time-consuming and often not even possible. A bespoke summer house is built from scratch in exactly the way you want it. 

The process of creating a bespoke summer house 

Bespoke summer houses are created in a specific way. It is important to follow the correct sequence of steps and to determine all the details before the construction begins. 

1. Consultation and planning – at the beginning, you present your expectations and financial capabilities to experts. Bertsch Holzbau specialists will suggest solutions that meet your needs. They will present several alternative options, allowing you to choose the one that will work best on your plot. 
   
   
2. Selection of materials – we create premium wooden houses. Wood is an environmentally friendly material that looks very natural and perfectly blends with the greenery in the garden. You can choose from several different types of wood, which differ in colour, grain and properties. All these features affect the final durability and appearance of the house. 
   
   
3. Personalisation – each customer has completely different needs. The possibility of creating a bespoke summer house allows you to perfectly tailor the finished structure to your expectations. As the Ordering Party you decide, among others, on the construction of the roof, the placement of windows and doors, the thickness of the walls, the materials used, as well as the finishing of the summer house. You may also ask to include some space for storing specific items (tools, sunbeds, gardening accessories, bicycles, garden toys or a barbecue). 

Only after all these details have been determined, we move on to the construction. The time from the first conversation with our specialists to the installation of the finished house varies depending on the complexity of the project. It usually takes a few weeks. 

Examples of using bespoke summer houses 

Bespoke summer houses can have several functions. They are an excellent choice for: 

• meetings with friends – you can invite your loved ones to a barbecue or a birthday/name day party outdoors. The house will then be a cozy and shady place sheltered from the wind where guests can rest and store food or their personal belongings. 
  
  
• outdoor office – in the summer season, the summer house can also serve as an office. In this case, it is worth supplying it with energy and installing internal sockets; 
  
  
• studio – if you need an enclosed space for DIY, clay gluing, painting or other messy work, a house in the garden will be a perfect place to do so. Inside, there will be space for all the necessary items. It will also allow you to find a separate space for hobbies – outside the home; 
  
  
• a place for children to play – the youngest residents will certainly have a great time in a small wooden house, slightly away from the main building. It is a great place for meetings with colleagues and activities that are partly held outdoors; 
  
  
• tool storage space – in the summer house you can store items that should not be outdoors for too long. These include garden and car tools, lawn mowers, barbecues or even garden furniture. You can also store other items in the summer house, especially during the winter season. It’s a perfect alternative to a garage. 

Wooden summer houses can also perform several different functions at the same time. In large facilities, you can definitely find some place to work, rest as well as store garden tools or sunbeds. You can also easily bring utilities to such facilities and enjoy access to electricity or lighting. 

Costs and pricing 

The final cost of preparing a summer house is influenced by many factors. These include the size of the structure, the materials used and the degree of personalisation. Large, complex houses with many ornaments or additional storage space are more expensive. You will pay less for small structures without optional amenities, made of cheaper wood species. 

The construction cost is provided by specialists once you have agreed on the key information about the house you wish to order. At this stage, they can also indicate the expected date of preparation of the house. The final decision to cooperate is always taken by the customer after having read the pricing details. 

Conclusion 

Wooden summer houses are a very aesthetic and functional choice for every plot. They allow you to create additional space for relax, storage and many other activities. You can find ready-made structures of this type on the market, but a much better solution is to design them yourself from scratch. Then you can adjust every detail of the building to your needs and the space available on the plot. 

Personalised summer houses are made by specialists. They guarantee that the finished structure will meet your needs and allow for its comfortable use for many years. It is worth taking advantage of their experience to create a functional, pleasing and durable summer house.
