Another bespoke build in Warrington pretty much wrapped up ✅
The customer wanted to make the most of the unused space down the side of the house and turn it into a workshop, complete with a covered canopy area.
The workshop gets wider towards the back, so it`s a bit of a Tardis once you`re inside! 👌
Finished off with grey composite cladding, a Thermowood canopy soffit and lighting that really sets it off.
Really pleased with how this one`s turned out!
