What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Chew Valley Garden Studios, run by Tony alongside Andy and Josh, builds bespoke garden rooms used as offices, studios, music and cinema rooms, and multi-purpose family spaces. A site visit and detailed design consultation feature prominently in client accounts, with Tony credited for offering practical suggestions and adapting layouts to make the most of available space. Reviews regularly refer to the team's consideration while working in occupied gardens, keeping sites tidy and coordinating construction from groundworks through to a finished, insulated room suitable for year-round use.

Builds have accommodated complex requirements, including soundproofing for music equipment and wiring for numerous sockets, both reported to have functioned correctly once complete. Clients often note being kept closely involved in decisions as work progressed, with changes accommodated along the way. A refundable deposit is mentioned as part of securing a place in the schedule, and customers consistently describe the finished result as worth the wait.

Workmanship and attention to detail are described as meticulous, with craftsmanship noted specifically in joinery and finishing touches. The company's approach centres on a full service from initial design through to handover, with clear communication maintained throughout. The finished studios are reported as comfortable, versatile additions to the garden, tailored closely to each household's intended use, from hobby rooms to dedicated workspaces and games rooms.

We are really pleased with our new garden studio. Tony was really helpful, responsive and guided us through the design and build process. We would highly recommend Chew Valley Garden Studios as you can design the studio to your spec, Tony and team are respectful of your garden, and the finished studio is a room we can use all year around.

After receiving several quotes from different companies, we were particularly impressed by Tony’s approach and the way he immediately put us at ease throughout the entire process. Having had negative experiences with previous building projects, we were understandably nervous about undertaking further work. However, Tony took the time to clearly explain every stage of the build, including how the project would be carried out and what we could expect along the way, which gave us real confidence from the outset. Tony was true to his word at every stage. Whenever he said he would do something, it was done, and whenever he said he would be there, he was. Both Tony and Josh consistently went above and beyond to ensure we were happy throughout the project, even taking on a number of additional jobs to make things easier for us. They were both professional, approachable, and incredibly friendly, always willing to answer questions and explain anything we needed clarification on. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble. We are absolutely delighted with the finished studio and are extremely pleased that we chose Tony and Josh for the project. They made the entire experience stress-free and restored our faith in tradespeople. We cannot thank them enough for everything they have done and would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

We are truly delighted with our new garden gym. Tony and Josh coped with the wettest January on record and still created an exceptionally high quality building. Their attention to detail is outstanding and Tony made sure we were kept in the loop throughout the whole process to ensure he exceeded our expectations. Even the mirror fitters were impressed with the quality of the structure - they said it made their job a lot easier! Thanks for making my dream a reality.

We have had the best possible experience with Tony, Andy & Josh from Chew Valley Garden Studios. They have built us an amazing garden room and we are so thankful that we went with them. From start to finish Tony was incredible. We ran through our ideas and thoughts and he shared his experiences and gave us loads of options for things. He allowed us to have a far more usable space than we thought possible. Throughout the build the chaps were on time, efficient, tidy and they didn't mind one bit when I was looking round and asking questions. They couldn't do enough for us. The project started and finished on time and Tony even supported us by adding a few extras that we requested late in the day - it honestly felt like nothing was too big of an ask. We are delighted with the end product and its obvious to everyone that sees the garden room that Tony and the team really care about what they deliver for people. I could not recommend Tony and Chew Valley highly enough - brilliant people, brilliant output and something that me and my family are extremely happy with. Thanks mate

We are delighted with our garden studio. From having a rough idea of what we wanted, Tony came up with a design that ticked all the boxes. During the build the team were neat and tidy and the finished studio is top quality.

Tony and team have provided an excellent “turn key” service for our Garden Studio. From start to finish I have been incredibly impressed with how professional the build has been, with Tony providing amazing support and flexibility on the design process and then it was a joy to have the team working in our garden during the efficient build. The end product is amazing and I would highly recommend Chew Valley Garden Studios.
