A pool house is next on our wish list.

We haven’t built a pool house yet, but it’s a building we’d love to design and build.

It would be fully bespoke and planned with you around how you’ll use it. We can plumb in a toilet or bathroom, including the mains connections, and build the outside space around it, such as patios, decking and covered areas.

Sketchbook

A design idea

We haven’t built a pool house yet, but we’d love to. This drawing shows how one could work, built using the same timber-frame methods as a new home.

Hand-drawn design idea for a pool house, not a past project. A cutaway of a flat-roofed building, drawn with a green roof as an illustrative option, pale slatted cladding and wide sliding glazing, shows a shower room, kitchen and lounge, with a paved terrace and loungers beside the pool. An exploded build-up and a long section sit alongside.

Glazing

Cladding
Cladding from Southgate Timber, Millboard or Cladco.

Waterproof LVT flooring from Oake & Gray.

Heating
Smart electric heaters, sized to suit the space.
Plumbing
For bars, toilets and bathrooms, including mains connections.

We’ll guide you through planning and, where possible, take care of all of it for you.
