Rockwood Garden Studios
What customers say
Bespoke garden offices, studios and gyms built by this Brackley-based company draw consistent praise for the pairing of Paul and Duncan, named in almost every account as the two who see each project through from initial planning to final handover. Their punctuality, tidiness and readiness to suggest improvements rather than stick rigidly to a standard layout are mentioned again and again. A theme running through several accounts is the strength of the insulation and soundproofing, with buildings used as music studios, home gyms and family rooms staying warm in winter, cooler in summer heat, and effective at containing sound so it does not disturb neighbours. Bespoke external finishes, including a rock fascia treatment, are described as durable and smart, giving these garden rooms a more distinctive appearance than typical shed-style buildings. Several clients also weigh the pricing favourably against larger national suppliers, feeling they secured comparable or superior workmanship without paying a premium. The willingness to adapt designs as requirements evolved during a build, combined with close attention to detail and finish, is credited with making the whole experience feel personal and considered rather than a routine installation. Operating from Glebe Farm in Farthinghoe near Brackley, the business is open 8am to 6pm on weekdays and offers shorter Saturday and Sunday hours from 10am to 4pm.

Rockwood recently installed a bespoke garden room for us and I have to say that we’ve been delighted with the whole process as well as the final product. Paul and Duncan worked on the project from start to finish and delivered a very high quality result and excellent customer experience. They are clearly very proud of their work and ensured that we were happy with every detail including coming up with great ideas and suggestions to enhance the building. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a bespoke building designed and built to a very high standard of quality and workmanship all at a fair cost. Many thanks Paul and Duncan !!!
Paul and Duncan took on a completely unique & bespoke build and completely delivered exactly what I was after. Nothing was too much trouble, not only does it have great soundproofing qualities it also looks great with an excellent finish both internally and externally. I couldn’t recommend Rockwood highly enough and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
Paul and Duncan worked hard to get the studio build to my requirements, and they did not fail one bit. I now have a well-built soundproof studio and extremely pleased with the result. The rock fascia finish is superb and extremely resilient, and the sound reduction is exceptionally good. The thermal quality of the insulation means very little heating required and in hot weather tends to be cooler inside than outside. I have had this studio for 9 months now and enjoy playing music in it like you should…. loud and no hassle from the neighbours! Very pleased I went with Rockwood, fantastic service, great guys, and a brilliant bespoke end product. Highly recommended.
Claire and Nick would like to thank Paul and Duncan for building Dampcure-Woodcure/30 Ltd this amazing new garden office. We would highly recommend their work.
A better product than the big suppliers at a much better price than the big suppliers. I can't compare how the big suppliers would have performed on delivery but I can say with confidence that they would not have been able to do better than Rockwood. Paul and Duncan were unfailingly polite, punctual, as clean and tidy as it's reasonable to expect and most of all flexible and helpful. The best experience we've ever had with builders. I can't imagine I'll ever need to replace the offices they've put up for us but if I ever need one at a different property I'll be on to them like a shot. Before and after photos below.
Brilliant service - fantastic quality building at a great price. Couldn't be happier.
A beautiful new studio for my glass art! Highly recommend— the build was unobtrusive and all involved were very professional and friendly. Absolutely delighted with it!
