Apex Summerhouses

Apex Summer Houses

Our apex summerhouses are designed to offer an airy, spacious environment with ample headroom whilst maintaining a classical appearance that complements a variety of modern and conventional gardens. Built with large windows and double-glazed doors, these summerhouses are designed to let natural light flood into the structure, creating a bright, welcoming and calming space that can be used for reading, relaxing, or entertaining friends.

Available in a variety of sizes and layouts, apex summer houses are designed for small and large-sized gardens whilst providing a functional yet aesthetic addition to your outdoor space. Whether it's a more compact area you can retreat to, or a larger, more spacious area that can be used for multiple guests, these summerhouses offer a practical and robust structure, with a spacious interior that can be accessorised with furniture, decor, lighting or storage.

Features

Our apex summerhouses are constructed using high-quality sustainably sourced timber and 12mm tongue-and-groove cladding to create a durable, strong and reliable structure. The design also includes the same tongue-and-groove fittings for all the floors, walls and roof to enhance the structural integrity, as well as create a contained environment that stays insulated throughout the year.

Large glazed windows and double-glazed doors also help to create a bright and quiet area whilst encouraging ventilation, and shatter-resistant styrene plastic windows offer a safer and more lightweight frame compared to traditional glass. Selected models also offer additional features such as verandas, contemporary ironmongery, and ready-painted finishes to further customise your summerhouse to perfectly fit your outdoor space.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an apex summerhouse?

An apex summerhouse is an outdoor garden building that features a traditional pitched roof design, large shatter-proof styrene windows, and double-glazed doors. The ample headspace and bright, airy design make it a perfect structure for relaxing, entertaining guests or engaging in your favourite hobbies.

Do I need planning permission for an apex summerhouse?

Typically, planning permission is not required for installing an apex summer house; however, there are certain requirements that must be met, such as the outdoor building not being used for residential use, the building not exceeding 50% of the total garden space, and it must be within the local authority’s specified height limitations. Read our full planning guide here.

Are apex summerhouses suitable for use all year-round?

Yes, you can enjoy the apex summerhouse all year round. The tongue-and-groove panels maintain a secure environment and shield you from the elements. The roof also includes water proof felting for rainy days, and the double-glazed door helps to reduce noise and keep any cold draughts out.

Are styrene plastic windows better than traditional glass windows?

Styrene windows are typically favoured for being a more affordable and safer alternative to traditional glass. This is because styrene plastic is often shatter-resistant, is a much lighter weight, and offers a more practical solution for gardens that children play in.
