Description
The Wilbye is another Georgian style Summerhouse but this time with full height glazing on the front & deeper side windows.
FLOOR
Most buildings will come with 12mm finished tongue & groove matching on 47mm x 47mm pressure treated floor joists with an option to upgrade to Heavy duty v313 Caberboard flooring. All buildings over 8’ in each direction eg 8’ x 8’ but not 9’ x 7’ are upgraded as standard.
ROOF
All buildings come with 15mm finished tongue & groove matching on 47mm x 47mm & 47mm x 22mm roof bearers, although some larger buildings will have these bearers upgraded where necessary. There is a 0.38m (15”) roof canopy over the front of the building as standard on the Wilbye. A Heavy-Duty Polyester based roofing felt is used as standard on all buildings. On all of our buildings, there is a ventilation gap along the back of the roof. Apart from on the Pent style, there is the option to upgrade the felt-to-felt tiles or Cedar Shingles.
WALLS
All buildings have a 12mm finished tongue & groove shiplap fixed to 47mm x 47mm & 47mm x 22mm finished framework. We also offer a 15mm Tongue & groove log lap upgrade on these buildings.
DOORS
The Wilbye has a pair of doors 0.6m (24”) wide by 1.76m (70”) tall that have 10 panes of toughened glass in each door. The doors open to give a 1.2m (4’) opening. They are hung on black antique style hinges and they come with a 5-lever lock & black antique style handle.
WINDOWS
The Wilbye has fixed windows alongside the doors in the front & an opening sash in each side panel. The amount of windows depends upon the size of the building. All the glass that we use is 3mm toughened for safety.
VERANDA
A 2’, 3’ or 4’ Veranda can be added to the Wilbye as an optional extra. The 2’ Veranda has an open front whilst the 3’ & 4’ Verandas have spindles across to the doors on the front.

Our buildings are treated both internally & externally with a spirit-based preservative that helps to protect the timber from fungi, woodworm & blue stain. We do recommend that buildings are retreated within 3 months unless painted for continuous protection.
All of our buildings can be upgraded to a painted finish.
