A calm wellbeing space

A creative studio
Use natural light, useful storage and an adaptable layout for making and creating.
An entertaining space
Connect the room to the garden for relaxed evenings, meals and time with family or friends.

The right specification starts with how the building will be used. NFF can help you work through the main decisions in a clear order.
Size and layout
Shape the floor area and internal arrangement around the space available and what needs to happen inside.
Doors and windows
Position access and glazing to suit daylight, security, privacy and the best view from your property.

Exterior appearance

Timber-building questions answered
The main points to consider before choosing a style or requesting a quotation.
What types of timber buildings does NFF make?
NFF makes garden rooms, offices, studios, sheds, workshops, stables, field shelters, hay barns and bespoke commercial timber structures. The most suitable range depends on how the building will be used and the level of finish required.
Can my timber building be made to a bespoke size?
Many NFF buildings can be adjusted in size, layout and specification. What is practical will depend on the product type, site access, intended use and structural requirements.
Do timber buildings need planning permission?
Some timber buildings may fall within permitted development, but this depends on their size, height, position, intended use and any restrictions affecting the property. Check the specific proposal with your local planning authority before work begins.
What type of base will my building need?
The base depends on the building type, size, weight and ground conditions. A small shed and a fully finished garden room will not necessarily require the same solution, so the base should be agreed as part of the project planning.
Do you deliver and install timber buildings across Sussex?
NFF welcomes projects across East Sussex and West Sussex from our Horam base. Delivery and installation arrangements vary by product, postcode and site access. Provide your building choice and postcode so we can confirm coverage and whether any delivery or installation charges apply.
How much does a bespoke timber building cost?
Cost depends on the building type, size, specification, access and chosen options. Use the instant quote page for an initial guide price, or submit a bespoke enquiry for a more individual project.
How long will my timber building take?
Timescales vary with the specification, site requirements and current production availability. NFF can provide a clearer programme once the building details and installation requirements are understood.
