Hutchinsons have been designing and building hand crafted garden rooms in landscaped settings for over 25 years.  Now based in our own purpose-built workshop in Frating, 5 miles to the east side of Colchester, the Hutchinsons Woodyard has grown from modest beginnings, sharing a converted greenhouse in the back of a small garden centre.

In its early years, the workshop was dedicated to preparing individual garden features exclusively for our in-house landscaping projects. With time, our reputation for quality and willingness to tackle bespoke design soon attracted the attention of other garden designers and landscapers who began to approach us to help them with structures and buildings in their own garden projects.

The Hutchinsons team have continued to develop their building designs and now offer a sample range of designs suitable for most garden settings.  Images of these buildings are presented on this web site, with display buildings available to view at outside our Frating workshop.

However, it is the production of high quality, bespoke garden rooms that the Hutchinsons team is most highly regarded.  From initial site survey, through individual 3D CAD design, to the erection and commissioning of the final garden room, our clients are consulted and advised to ensure a building that both parties can be truly proud of for many years to come.

When combined with the award-winning skills of our in-house landscaping team, Hutchinsons can simply modify the new buildings’ surroundings to fully enhance the garden setting, both aesthetically and practically.
