Country Supplies and Timeless Timber

There has been a ton of buzz around our new pods and sheds which are arriving in the next couple of weeks from our friends at Timeless Timber.
TT- conducted a survey titled "What do you do in yours?" The results were pretty interesting.

With half of Brits admitting all of their storage space is full of clutter,  and one in three (32%) finding their current home too small, high-quality garden sheds are now being seen as a solution for homeowners craving extra living space.

Neil Horton, sales director for Timeless Timber, said: “We carried out this research to highlight some of the challenges facing homeowners across the UK. We found that more space is longed for and that most people would rather extend their existing home than move house, but all too often an extension is unaffordable.

“The traditional cluttered garden shed at the bottom of the garden is a thing of the past. A Timeless Timber garden building creates stylish living space at a fraction of the cost of a traditional extension, but with all the same benefits. The needs of the homeowner are changing, and this product range responds to that by offering durable, secure and stunning looking designs that transform outdoor space into an extension of your home.”

Timeless Timber’s garden buildings are constructed to feel like homes on a smaller scale, with floors manufactured from pressure treated timber joists – as used in traditional home construction – and overlaid with a plywood floor which has a slip resistant and easy clean surface. Walls are strong, load bearing and timber clad, the roof is weather proof for 20 years and all Timeless Timber sheds come with mortice locks for security.

Building the ultimate ‘man cave’

As part of the survey, Timeless Timber asked Britain to imagine what the ultimate ‘man cave’ and ‘woman cave’ would look like.

According to British men, the ultimate man cave would include:

• Widescreen TV (48%)
• Computer or laptop (46%
• Large sofa (34%)
• Soundproof walls (29%)
• Beer fridge (24%)
• Pool table (20%)
• Games console (18%)
• Slot machine (10%)
• Weights (7%)
• Ping pong table (6%)
• Bean bags (5%)

With mess and clutter blamed for being the main cause of arguments in nearly one in six families, additional living space is top of the list for households across the UK. A quarter of those surveyed even said that having more space would lead to a happier living arrangement, and one in seven said there would be less stress at home as a result.

Women painted a very different picture when asked to imagine their dream ‘woman cave’. It would include:

• Walk in wardrobe (29%)
• Big bed (28%)
• Flat screen TV (20%)
• Candles (17%)
• Wine fridge (17%)
