Here we are!! Part 2 of the Best Summerhouse Manufacturers in Glasgow. If you have not already read part 1, best to start there. This is where I explain the rules and review the first three Summerhouse Manufacturers: McCallum Timber Buildings, Clyde Valley Sheds and Clydeside Garden Sheds. In this second part of my review, we will be looking at …
Guess who’s back!! This time we’re in Glasgow, to see what’s on offer when it comes to Timber Summerhouses in the Glasgow area.

Nothing gets my shed door slamming more than when customers can’t get the right information about Planning and Building Control from their local authorities. More often than not, customers are under the assumption that if you don’t need Planning (based on the Permitted Development Act) you are absolutely well within your rights to erect a building in your garden.
