Project: Summer House
Delve into Tom Wild's summer house project, created using materials from Howarth Timber & Building Supplies.
Tom Wild set upon a project to build a summer house in his back garden, with storage and relaxation in mind. One side of his summer house acts as a traditional garden shed storing tools and gardening equipment. The other side is where Tom relaxes and unwinds with a drink.
The shed part of his build has a LED strip light and 2 gang sockets. The summer house has a double door with windows, a side door for entry, insulation, four dimmable LED spot lights, an extractor fan and two 2 gang sockets (one with USB sockets). On the outside there are 3 dimmable LED spot lights in the overhang to light up the garden.
Tom made everything from scratch using materials from Howarth Timber and Building Supplies.
