About Me

We are a small family run business located on the Powis Shropshire border. We have been building 'stuff' for over 20 years. Builds range from narrow boats to our family home. We can build great garden structures, including Shepherds huts, Showmans wagons and Caravans, that make great alternatives to the traditional shed. They can be an alternative office, a spare bedroom, an adult wendy house, a potting shed, a bird hide, an attractive addition to a campsite for the new glamping craze, an alternative workshop a home cinema, or even a roadside tea wagon. Will consider building anything really, so ask away! Email davestilthouse@googlemail.com Phone: 01588 620132

Railway carriage outside painted.



Progress is being made.

The sides are mid Brunswick Green, and for now the ends are cream. 



The reddish wood will have at least another coat and will not be as orange.

We are now waiting on more paint. Another issue that we are coming across again and again due to the social distancing rules and other measures is that many places are not able to produce as much, and those able to supply it are selling out quickly. 

Everyone needs paint. And when the colour bought doesn't match expectation it can get quite frustrating. It will be a simple fix once the wood stain arrives though. 



Yet to panel out the other side. 




Stared to line out the inside. the Plywood lower sections will be done in scumble. The rest of the wood is yet to be decided upon.
