From Software to Softwood

Based in Woodbridge, I spent 14 years in the fast-paced world of software sales in London. My real passion, however, has always been creating – designing, woodworking and building.

In 2025, I decided to follow that passion, swap the office for the workshop and start my own business building beautiful, functional garden rooms.


From Mockups

I’ll design a virtual mock-up of your building to help you envisage the structure and ensure you’re happy with the planned build before we begin.

To Construction

You’ll be involved throughout the construction process. I work efficiently with the flexibility to make adjustments on the go.

To Finishing Touches

Whether you’re looking for a studio, a garden shed, a greenhouse or any other outhouses, I make sure you’re completely happy with the finished product.


We would have no hesitation in recommending Jake’s workmanship. He was inclusive at every stage of the build, works in a very clean and tidy way and above all, the quality of his craftmanship is faultless. We are absolutely delighted!

Linda & John

Jake’s attention to detail, reliability, and communication with us at every stage made the whole process a pleasure, and we have ended up with exactly what we wished for!

Cathy & Duncan

Jake was brilliant to work with — hardworking, reliable, and the result is a classy and perfectly formed garden room.

Rob and Sophie

Jake works very collaboratively and has an easy style. He plans the work well in advance but is flexible enough to adapt if the project needs to… I would recommend Jake without hesitation!

Simon

Jake is a talented and imaginative carpenter. He is also honest and reliable. We will definitely use him again. Hopefully he won’t get too booked up!
