Proven to Extend Outdoor Time

Mr & Mrs Whitbread, from Whitstable, Kent love outdoor living as they benefit from an exposed south facing garden. They previously had (as the before picture below shows), a patio awning installed (some 12 years ago) which allowed them more use of their garden, however, they were seeking all weather use of their terrace. After seeing the Outdoor Living Pod in action at Grand Designs and the flexibility it offered, without spoiling the alfresco envrionment they both enjoyed, they decided it was time to invest. As this review shows, they are delighted with the finished result and how it has extended their enjoyment of The Great Outdoors.

“We would like to show our appreciation for the professional manner in which your fitters constructed our Outdoor Living Pod and blocked in the soil pipe. The pod measures 3 meters by 6 meters and has the built in lights. We have been overjoyed with the resulting structure which has extended the length of time we spend in the garden. It is pleasant to sit in comfort outside and watch the rain come down!

The Pod was built during monsoon conditions and the pipe blocked in during the hottest day of the year and yet the fitters kept going sometimes with rain water running down their backs and other times sweating buckets. Our thanks to them and your company. We have included two sets of photographs showing before (below) and after (above) and hope they will be of use”.
