    I'm thinking of having a garden building put up.... sort of glorified shed... not necessarily wood, probably insulated, for an office and storage space. Does anyone have any recommendations of a decent company to do the job?
    Cheers.

    What kind of budget do you have in mind? Have you seen the Barnsley company that does garden spaces,offices etc made out of old airplane fuselages? They’re called skypods and are well pretty amazing

    My cousins lad owns that business. Based at Shortwood. (Hoyland) An amazing personal story on his part how it came about. Bit long winded. But they do look amazing and are built to personal spec's.

    To be honest I think they are fantastic, can’t afford one mind but they look brilliant and very unique

    Try advark joinery on Wakefield Road next to New lodge club....they will sort you out reasonably priced ...got my shed from them but they do the office type buildings too
    There's also J.L.S. windows on Barnsley Rd Wombwell who make them to your instructions .. first left then left again into the industrial estate after the bridge they too are reasonably priced and will come out measure up and help you plan and design it

    may the force be with you. my experiences with tradesmen has been consistently $hite. to the point where if I can't DIY summat now, it doesn't get done. I'm working on the basis that by the time summat serious needs sorting, either things will have vastly improved in the industry, or I'll be dead.

    Mark Kingston built mine back in Spring, did an amazing job and would highly recommend.

    As @Tykeofthetown mentions, I think he’s somehow linked to the SkyPods too.

    You've got to add a pub shed in the design. It will be criminal if you don't.
