What We Offer in Shap
Timber Gates
Built for both privacy and visual appeal, our timber gates are handcrafted to suit the look and layout of your property. Whether it’s for a driveway or garden entrance, we install gates that offer strength, security, and long-lasting performance.
Garden Fencing
We install timber and composite fencing that stands up to Shap’s wind and wet weather. Timber offers a natural, traditional finish, while composite provides a more modern, low-maintenance alternative. All our fencing is built to last and fitted with care.

Garden Sheds
We build custom sheds for storage, workshops, or hobby spaces. Each one is made to fit your space and needs, using quality materials that hold up to Shap’s changing weather conditions.

Our garden rooms are fully insulated and designed for year-round use — ideal for remote working, relaxing, or creating a space that’s separate from the main house. We offer timber or composite finishes, depending on your preferences and the setting.Why Shap Residents Choose Lakes Outdoor Spaces
