At Swift we know that the key to a successful project is to understand
exactly what you desire from your new space. So the first thing we
do is listen attentively so we don’t miss out the minute details which
make the difference - to you!
Swift build relationships before we build walls and roofs.
The Swift team are enthusiastic to share your celebration of taking
ownership of an investment that will give years of satisfaction.
It is all about... you!

Bespoke designs and service You don’t have to choose from a selection of predetermined
building projects. You can have something created that suits
you... not us!
Experience and expertise We employ a whole team of people who will enjoy playing
a part in your investment. Most important is your project manager
who will be your key point of contact throughout the whole
process. The designers, engineers, fabricators, quality controllers,
carpenters, electricians... the whole team share our values and

about their project and we like meeting years later and being
greeted like old friends. It makes us smile and we want our work
to make you smile.
Modern building systems Time proven, fully accredited and incredibly efficient. The SIP
building panels that we use are commonplace in the USA, Europe
and becoming an increasingly recognised system in the UK. SIP
panels are a complete structure that is strong, durable, highly
insulative and pre-engineered in factory conditions. This means that
you will have a building that you can feel proud of which facilitates
less waste, is mostly sourced in the UK and is out-performing all
the ‘eco’ requirements that building regulations demand.
Ten year structural warranty At Swift we want to give you peace of mind. This level of cover
is only possible because of our commitment to being the best by
using the best and we very much doubt that you will be calling on
the warranty. If you did, then we wouldn’t begrudge your call, we
would welcome it as an opportunity to show you how much we
valued your satisfaction. We would demonstrate our continued
commitment to your enjoyment of your building.

Multi-use Garden Room, Cheadle, Cheshire
Swift were excited to be able to take on a project that involved so many elements. After finalising the
design and specification, the project was started...
• Demolitionofoldasbestosgarage.
• Removaloftreeandstump.
• Gardenclearanceandinstallationofpadfoundations.
• Excavationoftrenchesforservices.
• Deliveryanderectionofthemainbuilding.
• Constructionofnewdeckedarea.

• Removalofoldgaragebaseandnewtarmacdrivelaid.
• Supplyandinstallnewgardenshed.
• Supplyanderectnewgardenfencesandgate.
• Re-modelgardenandlawn,laysteppingstonepathwayandbuildstoragearea.
The end result is a beautiful room that is truly multifunctional and a pleasure to use. The office area is
private and practical; the family area is large and luxurious whilst the shower room / WC impresses
everyone. All this is just a few steps from the house, yet it could be in another world!
beautiful design
more family space
When it finally became impossible to delude ourselves any longer that
working from home and having a baby were in any way compatible, we
had some tough decisions to make. Did we look to extend, look to move
somewhere bigger, or think outside the box and attempt to better utilise the
garden? We invited architects, builders and garden room companies to talk
to us about the options . Extending would be the traditional solution, but no
matter how big the resulting house was, I’d still be attempting to work from
the same building in which my baby son was testing his voice... Moving
would have been disruptive, and in the then-current lending deadlock, trying
to sell our current property in order to buy a new place would have been
fraught with difficulty, and I would probably STILL have ended up working
in the same building as my baby son. The room in the garden, though
a relatively novel idea, seemed to solve all the problems.
We talked ideas through with various companies, each of which had a
different take on the same idea. When we met Martin from Swift, it was
like a breath of fresh air - anything was possible. We took the plunge, and
haven’t looked back!

Nursery School, Bollington, Cheshire
When Swift were appointed as main contractors on this major construction, we knew that we had to
deliver a robust and durable building on a very tight schedule. Attention to detail in the building design
and the project management produced a fantastic result that was completed within 12 weeks, despite
appalling winter conditions and Christmas holidays.

all coming together
contruction begins
Swift were awarded the contract for a new
build day nursery I was working on. Whilst
others tendered, Swift delivered a competitive
quote and were the favoured contractor
from day one, due to the service that my
clients received from Mr Martin Lawson the
managing director of Swift.
Whilst Martin liaised with the client with
regards to finishes, services etc. I was free
to press on with the detailed specification,
working closely with the manufacturing
side at Swift. When Swift began on site,
the merits of the build system became evident. When combined with the Swift team, the speed of construction was something I had not
previously experienced, as past work involved traditional masonry construction. A reduced construction time is always beneficial.
The end product exceeded everyone’s expectations and the nursery met its completion date deadline and received its completion certificate from
the local authority. The opening day was a success with several visitors giving positive feedback and the building certainly helped to gain new clients.
Overall, I can only compliment Swift and the service they gave both myself and the client, the end product is an achievement that sits proudly within
my portfolio. I would be happy to recommend Swift and I will be making future clients aware of the service and construction methods Swift provide.

Quality counts We are very selective when sourcing the elements that will make your new space.
We always choose the products that we know will produce the longest lasting
structure. We know it’s worth it, because you want to feel safe secure and cosseted
in rooms which have the edge. Rooms which make you smile.
Costs vary considerably - as do our clients! It could be compared to going to a tailor for a special outfit... you can only expect
an exact quotation after you have chosen the cloth, the style, the buttons and trim,
etc. Our larger projects and extensions demand a discussion and site survey before
we are able to calculate costs. Garden rooms can often be more predictable so the
example prices here will help you in the early stages of budgeting for your project.
Value is our commitment We are successful because we provide excellent value for money and a fine return
upon your investment. We are comfortable about not being the cheapest because
we would have to jeopardise our standards in order to reach that level. We are
proud not to be the most expensive because we pass on economies to you that are
a result of efficient and skilful supply and installation processes.

frequently asked questions Q: Do I need planning permission? In many cases your garden room or home extension can be built
within “permitted development rights”. This is a collection of
allowable developments that you can build onto, or in the gardens
of, your domestic property. The same can apply, though often less
straightforwardly, with commercial and educational projects.
Q: What if my building site has limited access?Swift garden room’s, commercial rooms and extensions are of
pre-fabricated construction and are flat packed in prefabricated
modular panels. In most situations these can be carried to site.
Our free site survey clarifies how we overcome any individual
challenges regarding access.
Q: Who will construct my garden room, extension, etc? Our fully trained, professional and customer focused team will carry
out the complete build with the minimum of disruption and with due
care and attention. When the building is completed, your new room
is cleaned, the area tidied and you take possession of the keys and
your new Swift space.
Q: Will my new Swift Room have to pass any building regulations? We will give you specific advice when we meet you and carry out
a site survey. Most of our garden rooms and garden studios already
meet or exceed most areas of building regulations but do not require
formal applications and inspections by Building Control inspectors.
Most extensions, large projects and commercial buildings will require
full building regulation conformity. Wherever building regulations are
involved, we will ensure that all standards are met and certification
is obtained.
Q:What kind of return can I expect on my investment? The current housing market has made many home improvements
the preferred route for many owners. Because we only build to high
standards, and guarantee our products, you can rest assured that all
of our projects will be viewed very favourably by any purchasers.
