What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

In Calmore, on the outskirts of Southampton, this small garden building company run by Joe Partridge has built a strong local reputation for bespoke home office projects. Feedback consistently highlights the craftsmanship and finish achieved, with builds featuring fully insulated walls, floors and ceilings, EPDM flat roofing, cedar cladding, plastering, painting and electrics carried out to a high standard.

Clients describe additional features worked into designs, including wood burners, decking, network cabling and split-unit heating and cooling systems tailored to individual requirements. Something that features in review after review is Joe's hands-on approach throughout each build, offering design input, adjusting plans to suit budgets and keeping customers updated at key stages of construction. Projects are generally reported as finished within the agreed timescale and price, even when weather conditions during the build were poor.

Several clients mention passing the company's details on to neighbours and friends after seeing the completed work. The scale of projects varies, from compact office and storage combinations to larger bespoke rooms exceeding four metres in length, each shaped around the specific layout and needs of the garden in question. Enquiries and site visits are accommodated across an unusually wide daily window, with the business open from 7am to 8pm every day of the week.

Joe was an absolute pleasure to work with. Our garden room was a bespoke design forming two boundary walls on our property, and Joe carried out the build with the utmost professionalism. I don't hesitate to recommend Joe to neighbours and friends.

New Forest Garden Buildings, and it’s owner Joe Partridge carry our strongest recommendation. Joe has built is a home office in the end of our garden. He was a wise calming presence, full of good advice and innovation (always improving on our basic design). The build, given it was wet November, was largely hassle free with all the teams mirroring Joes high standards and craftsmanship. Now in full operation it is fabulous! Handsome, warm, sturdy and stylish. We are very pleased indeed. 6 Stars.

Joe built a 5x3 garden office for us. As a true craftsman, he takes tremendous pride in his work. He and his team did an amazing job and we are really pleased with the end result. The red cedar cladding looks great. The office is well insulated and the floor, electrics, plaster, painting etc. all look very sharp. Joe also did some decking for us, which looks great, and he even threw in a couple of extra jobs for us for free (repairing some fencing and making a soakaway). I can highly recommend Joe and New Forest Garden Buildings.

I used New Forest Garden Building to build up bespoke garden office in my back garden. Joe who owns the business gave me quotation quickly and able to finish on time. He is highly skilled carpenter/builder which he finished my office in very high standard. Our office specs are fully insulated walls, floor and ceeling; EPDM flat roof, cedar cladding, powered and plastered, painted, laminate floored. And wood burner installed by Joe. I will strongly recommend him if you are looking for to build garden office. Here is why you should use Joe: 1. He will give you accurate and detailed quotation. 2. He is very hard worker and detailed oriented. He will consider every detail before you think off. 3. His contractors (painter, plasterer etc) are really good. 4. He will everytime listen to you and will achive what you like. I also used Joe to replace my fences and he did replaced my fences in high standard too. I will be using him for other projects. I am very pleased with your work Joe.

It's always a worry using a company you don't know for such a big investment. I have to say that New Forest Garden buildings were absolutely amazing. From the start Joe was straight and honest with me. He helped with my ideas on the build of our garden office and worked out how they could fit within my budget. All through the build Joe kept me informed and checked in on key decisions before proceeding. The quality of work is top class, they really took pride in their work down to the small details, i can honesty say 100% that the finish was far better than i expected. They kept the area clean and were respectful to us all through the build. I have no hesitation in recommending this company and if I ever need another build they would be the company I would call.

Fantastic service by Joe and the team at New Forest Garden Buildings. From start to finish with this project Joe has been approachable and created an amazing high spec office space/storage area that we were looking for. With such a small space to work with, Joe has worked wonders. I would highly recommend.

I opted for a 4.8m x 3.3m external measurement room with a few optional extras Joe was able to provide, Connection to a 32amp isolator, Electrics, Floor box with network link to the house, Outside socket, optional decking which wasn't quoted for at the start and a split wall HVAC unit with a purpose frame. Was this build expensive, yes, would I pay it again, 100%. Joe is absolutely fantastic, the speed of this build was phenomenal only to be let down by external suppliers. Joe kept up the communication though which was fantastic. I'm over the moon with my office. Thanks again. Sorry if the photos aren't in order, you can thank google for that.
