Planning Permission is usually exempt for garden annexes

Annexes sited in the garden for the exclusive use of a family member are usually exempt from planning permission. You can read more about this in our handy guide to mobile home Planning Permission. Or contact us for some straightforward advice.

Our sustainable annexes reduce energy costs

All our insulated garden and granny annexes are made from natural, sustainable wood combined with modern cavity insulation, making them warm in winter, cool in summer and reducing running costs to a minimum.

Save on care costs and keep family close

Housing parents in a granny annex can save significantly on care home fees. In 2023, care home costs in the South East averaged £54,000 annually, or £60,100 for nursing care. With Timberspecs granny annexes starting at £99,845, it’s a cost-effective alternative to care home fees

MAKING DREAMS A REALITY FOR 25 YEARS

Owners’ Stories

"The quality is AMAZING, far beyond what we thought we could achieve"

Thank you to Vic & the whole team at Timberspecs. They were fantastic from start to finish and made the whole process stress free and super easy.

Vic was so helpful throughout the entire process, we could call him at any time, day or night. They gave us a really warm, family feel, where they walk you through the whole process step by step.

We can’t wait to make many happy memories here!

"Really impressed with the quality and value for money"

I found Timberspecs online after trawling on the internet for mobile log cabins for a long time. I made an appointment with Vic and had a really helpful meeting. He gave me lots of advice and knew pretty much what I wanted from the beginning. I had the opportunity to visit a few previous similar structures to what I was looking for, in the local area and everyone gave glowing reports on the company.

Everyone who has seen the finished cabin has been really impressed with the quality and value for money.

"Vic has been fantastic"

Vic has been fantastic, very supportive through the planning phase, helping us with the design and myriad of other things that go along with such a project and giving us exactly what we want at a price that was more than affordable.

"We didn’t hesitate to use Vic again when we needed another one"

I am so pleased with my new cabin. We had one built in 2016 and love it so much that we didn’t hesitate to use Vic again when we needed another one. Vic is marvellous, nothing is too much trouble.

He impressed from the off particularly as one of the first things he said to us was “do you want to see one?” and then promptly arranged this. None of the other companies I spoke to had been this upfront.

"I should not say this, but I think you could definitely increase the price of the origami."

I have never seen such dedicated workers, they never stopped and have left the origami fully finished and looking wonderful. Have had a good look round this morning and the workmanship is excellent, please pass on my gratitude and well wishes to all the teams involved.
