The Weybourne Summerhouse
Designed to nestle into the corner of the garden and to maximise any space.
Simplistic and neat in its design; chic in presentation with its stylish overhanging corner, the Weybourne will suit even the smallest of gardens so that Summerhouses are not just for those with a large garden.

Lining and Insulation
The Weybourne Summerhouse comes lined and insulated. This makes it a perfect all-season retreat and greatly enhances the finished look of the building.
Show More
For the roof we have a 4 tier lining and insulation process; we insulate between the ply layer and the internal
matchboard tongue and groove lining and finish the building with your choice of roofing material.
For the walls, we insulate your building, by trapping a breathable paper membrane between the studwork which
acts a moisture trap. We go on to fill the cavity with insulation. There are then 2 options for lining your
Summerhouse:
Natural matchboard lining
We can line with our highest grade tongue and groove matchboarding (15mm) leaving a natural warm
feel.

Painted matchboard lining
We can use a channeled, secret-nailed, tongue and groove matchboarding (15mm) with 3 coats of paint
leaving a satin, off-white finish which achieves a bright, clean and airy look.
Roof Coverings
The Weybourne Summerhouse comes with a choice of either Cedar Shingles or Slate Effect roofing tiles in grey or
terracotta.
Show More
Cedar Shingles
We use only the finest quality Canadian Blue Label Cedar Shingles expertly tiled by our own skilled craftsmen to give a traditional finish which will 'silver' with age. They are expected to last 25-35 years and they complete the charm of your Summerhouse.
Terracotta
Grey
Slate Effect Tiles
These individually laid synthetic slates finally bring nature and technology together providing the ultimate protection against UV rays, wind, hail and fire.
This roofing product carries a 50 year limited warranty. Opt for a more traditional grey or terracotta for a different look which looks great with the lighter paint shades.
Paint System
Crane Sheds and Summerhouses have worked closely with VALTTI to make this coating system available for your building. Our Valtti system is proven to be the best possible protection for exterior timber. Valtti is fully opaque and gives an exceptionally durable, extremely low maintenance, solid 4 coat finish. Our extensive colour range is inspired by nature and the soft neutral tones of traditional colonial buildings.

Doors
Within our workshops, we house our own Joinery Works so we make the double doors for our Summerhouses. This ensures that the high quality that we demand is met and we can offer a bespoke service. Our doors are constructed from hemlock, which is a timber particularly suitable for doors as apart from being durable it is far less susceptible to movement and warping than other timbers traditionally used in doors. They are three quarter glazed with leaded lights using 4mm toughened safety glass and finished with the finest brass fittings. You can opt for Georgian style windows in the door or plain (toughened) glass instead.
Windows
We make our own windows within our Joinery Works. The Weybourne comes with two sets of ¾ length, double windows that open. The Windows feature square, leaded, 4mm toughened safety glass and solid brass furniture. It is possible to add further sets if you desire.

Leaded Windows
You can, of course, opt to have fewer windows or add further sets to your Summerhouse. We can also offer Georgian effect or plain windows as alternative styles.
Georgian Windows
Double Glazed Windows
Have your windows double glazed for added insulation and reduced condensation.
Opening windows
You can substitute any fixed window for an opening sash.
Cladding Options
Our timber cladding is machined from very high quality Redwood grown in North Sweden, close to the arctic circle. Because of the temperature, these slowly grown trees produce a much more dense and stable timber than others. The timber mill we partner and have very close links to is also FSC accredited like ourselves. Choose between:

Shiplap - (ex 19 x 125mm)
Shiplap gives a planed, smooth surface finish which looks great painted. The shiplap we use is particularly thick and has very few knots because of where we source it and how it grows.
Weatherboard - (21>8 x 125mm)
Our weatherboard cladding is machined from the same high quality timber as the shiplap but is left sawn which gives a more rustic look to your building.
Floor Options
Our standard and robust floorboards are set on closely spaced tanalised floor joists. We can offer heavy duty flooring or should you be spending long periods of time in your building then we would advise on our underfloor insulation.

Heavy Duty Ex 38mm thick.
Electric Packs
For lighting and using any equipment in your building, you may wish to consider our electric pack. Professionally fitted by qualified electricians who take all the wiring to a consumer unit ready for you to connect to your electricity supply. Internal wiring will be fitted behind internal lining. We can also supply your building with a heater.

Base
All our buildings require a level solid base of the correct size. We offer a base service.
Show More
The single most important part of installing a garden building is the base. Bases must be:
- LEVEL
- of the correct size
- square i.e. have right angled corners
If the base is undertaken by someone who does not know what they are doing the base is likely to be uneven and therefore will create a lot of problems for your building in the short term and long term. The door will start to become unaligned and not shut properly and possibly create other movements within the building structure. The base supports the building and creates distance between your building and surface water.
We strongly recommend a solid concrete base (which will include steel reinforcement within the mix), no less than 100mm deep is ideal.
The base should always be a minimum of 50mm out of the ground to prevent surface water or puddles affecting your building i.e. rotting it.
The size of the base needs to be the metric size of your building. For example, if you order a 8 x 10 building, the metric size is 2.4 x 3.0 metres and this should be the size of the base. If the base is not built to the metric size then you will see the base around the building which is unsightly.
Bases for larger buildings and in particular garages need to be built to exact dimensions and drawings should be obtained from us before the base is laid.
A timber beam base can be necessary in rare cases where the building is on a steep slope or to be built near trees with tree preservation orders on them.
Always get your garden building base laid by a professional. We supply a base service if you should require it.
