1. Select Size

Size measured in feet

2. Select Treatment

Spray Treated

Treated with a beautiful golden brown spray treatment which colours and protects the wood during transit. Designed to last through shipping and assembly, we do recommend treating the wood after installation to protect and preserve it, as well as annual maintenance.

Pressure Treated

An effective way of keeping the wood long-lasting and increasing the longevity of your building. In a pressurised tank, chemical preservatives are forced deep into the wood’s fibres to resist rot or decay. Upgrading to Pressure Treated means the guarantee is extended from 10 to 15 years. Please note Pressure Treatment gives your wood a slightly green hue to begin with, but over time this will age and turn to a beautiful warm brown colour.

2. Personalise your summerhouse

11mm Tongue and Groove

Our Standard flooring option which provides a durable, solid foundation and underfoot to the building. The 11mm option is ideal for less demanding and frequent usage, suitable for lighter intensity purposes like summer houses and other living spaces containing light furniture. The 11mm tongue and groove timber makes this a solid yet suitable, economical option.

19mm Tongue and Groove

1.7 times thicker than our standard 11mm flooring, our premium floor is the perfect choice for higher intensity usage. The construction uses thick 19mm Tongue and Groove timber, which gives you not only the strength, but better insulation against the cold weather. This specific floor is the perfect option if you’re planning on using the building as an everyday use office, gym or games room with heavy objects.

3. Add Extras

Complete your building with optional shelving, guttering, base options, assembly kits and more.

Spray Treated: Our sheds and summerhouses get a beautiful golden brown spray treatment before leaving the factory in order to preserve the quality of the wood up until the delivery. As this only lasts through the transit stage, we do advise treating the wood after installation to protect and preserve it, as well as annual maintenance.

Pressure Treated: For an extra level of protection, you can opt for a pressure treated building which is an effective way of keeping the wood long lasting. This is an extra step in the manufacturing process where the wood is treated in a pressurised tank. Chemical preservatives are forced deep into the wood’s fibres to resist rot, decay and termites. When you upgrade to Pressure Treatment, the guarantee is extended from 10 to 15 years.

With the Tessa an 11mm tongue and groove floor and roof is included.

Roof:

11mm: Our standard roof option, this interlocking roof provides a reliable covering for any building. The Tongue and Groove not only gives your building a stronger roof but also a premium look and feel.

Floor:

11mm: Our Standard flooring option which provides a durable, solid foundation and underfoot to the building. The 11mm option is ideal for less demanding and frequent usage, suitable for lighter intensity purposes like summer houses and other living spaces containing light furniture. The 11mm tongue and groove timber makes this a solid yet suitable, economical option.

All garden buildings should be assembled on a firm and level base. A base will ensure your building has a solid, long-lasting and well-drained foundation.

If you want to build your own base, from a sturdy material such as concrete or flagstones, you can find minimum dimensions for each size of this building in the tech specs. In order to protect your building from moisture, you should leave a 2ft gap around the exterior of your building, so remember to take this into consideration when laying any sort of base.

Our robust and simple to use EcoBase provides you with a firm, long-lasting foundation with suitable drainage for your garden building. It is quick and easy to install through the use of snap connectors that link the grids to each other.

We do not offer an installation service on any of our buildings, as they are designed to be easy and simple to assemble. Using the digital assembly instructions included in your order confirmation and with a team of at least 2 people, the handy pre assembled panels mean you will have your BillyOh building up in no time!

Tessa Reverse Apex Summerhouse


Wooden Summer House


This stylish summer house is the perfect option for those who want to enjoy their outdoor space to the fullest. Wide double doors open up a world of possibilities from storage space to a garden office. With a range of sizes on offer, let your summer house ideas run wild or check out our blog for inspiration.


Premium Tongue & Groove Cladding


Durable tongue & groove panels are the standard flooring option with the ability to upgrade and pressure treat both your floor and standard roof option. This cladding style gives the Tessa a tight seal against water ingress in even harsh weather conditions. The Tessa also comes with a range of colour options available to purchase.


Apex Roof Style


A tongue and groove apex summerhouse offers more than suitable drainage with its sloping roof panels. Long, styrene glazed windows also help you maximise on natural light whilst providing a safe and well-insulated solution.


Pressure Treatment


Opting for pressure timber treatment will protect your building from moisture and offer an extra level of protection. Your Tessa summerhouse will be delivered with golden brown spray treatment otherwise and we advise on further treatment of the wood after installation.


Whereas, with optional pressure treatment you can get not only a high-quality decorative finish but a guarantee against rot with maximum weather protection. Then, simply erect your Tessa summerhouse on a concrete base or other raised, level base to protect your summerhouse against groundwater and rising damp.


Garden Office


The Tessa summer house naturally lends itself to a variety of uses. From everyday use office to summerhouse bars or simply somewhere to store extra garden furniture, we've seen our customers convert this summerhouse into it all!


Green Mineral Roof Felt


The Tessa comes with various roofing options upon purchase, but premium green mineral roof felt is supplied as standard to offer a reliable covering. Plus, with a ridge height of 2.47m (8ft1), your Tessa summerhouse falls within the height allowed as 'permitted development' (without planning permission).


Double doors


Double doors and  single glazing windows help this garden building to maximise natural light and good airflow in the safest way possible.


Assembly Service


We don't offer an installation service on our BillyOh buildings as they all come with comprehensive assembly instructions. You and a friend can have your Tessa up on a sturdy and level base in just a matter of hours.


Guarantee


Like the ridge, the eaves height of this summer house fall under the purview of 'permitted development'. The Tessa also comes with a 10-year guarantee protecting this building against rot, insect infestation, and decay.


With dependable quality from durable tongue & groove construction and high-quality European-sourced timber, you can further protect wood against rot by getting it pressure treated. Then we can increase our guarantee to 15 years.

Tessa Customer Testimonials

We love to catch up with our customers to see how they’re getting on with their garden buildings. Check out how some of our customers have decorated their garden building and read what they had to say about it.

Lisa

"It had more windows than everything else, and the dual aspect doors made for a flexible space. We chose Garden Buildings Direct because of the good value and a good selection of summerhouses."

Lisa
We’re using it as an additional living room/home office and it’s allowed us to get some quiet time away from the house and kids! It gives us more space, especially when we’re home working permanently now. We’ve painted, insulated and plastered the areas we could for all year round use.
Our favourite thing is the windows to let us view all around the garden and see the seasons whatever the weather We needed a good head height due to a 6ft 4" Fiance! We had to alter some of the struts but it’s now tall enough for him to stand up in.
It was a good experience. Just remember to plan out how you want to use the area and don't overfill your space. Choose neutral colours and try to bring the outside in with lots of greenery and cosy blankets for snuggling.
