8ft x 8ft summerhouse questions
The questions we're asked most often.
How do I stop damp in a summerhouse?
Check over your roof, walls, windows and doors, looking for damage and water getting in, and fix any problems you find. Make sure air can circulate inside, and add vents if there aren't enough. You could insulate the walls and ceiling, panel over the top, and consider a heater or dehumidifier. Even the driest of outdoor buildings faces bigger swings in temperature than a house, so protect any valuable items in airtight storage boxes.
Do I need planning permission for an 8ft x 8ft summerhouse?
Planning rules depend on your property and where you live, and they differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so please check with your local planning office before you order.
Can I live in a summerhouse?
No, summerhouses are not designed for living in. If you plan to use a garden building for anything other than hobbies or relaxing, please check with your local planning office first.
Can I build an 8ft x 8ft summerhouse myself?
Yes, building one is a two-person job. If you'd prefer, home installation by our expert installers is available at extra cost. It covers the building only, so you'll need a firm, level base ready first.
What base does an 8ft x 8ft summerhouse need?
A firm, level base is essential. Concrete or paving slabs work well. On the Helios and the Premium Sussex, you can also add an 8ft x 8ft wooden base to your order.
