Custom Garden Rooms in short

Custom Garden Rooms designs and builds bespoke garden rooms, pods and annexes from Hortonwood in Telford, with named ranges such as the Attingham and the Wrekin [1] [2]. You pick from a range or a bespoke design, with a structural warranty measured in years and installation stated in days [1]. The site states three decades in the trade [1].

Customers rate it 4.9 across 68 Trustpilot reviews, with Google reviews unanimous at the top mark [3] [4]. What counts against Custom Garden Rooms in our judgement is openness on money and paperwork: no list prices or VAT position are published, and no insurance details appear on the site [1] [2].

In our judgement Custom Garden Rooms suits an exact brief, from a home office to an annexe, designed with a Telford specialist rather than bought off the shelf. Readers who want list prices or published cover should shortlist elsewhere.

Our verdict

Our judgement: Custom suits you if you want a bespoke garden room or annexe from a Telford specialist with dozens of strong Trustpilot reviews behind it [1] [3]. The named ranges and 12-year structural warranty read clearly. What counts against it is openness on money and paperwork: no list prices and no insurance details are published.
