I got a massive erection in the garden around 18 months ago - a 22' x 14'
timber garage - from Warwick Building (Long Itchingdon, near Leamington
Spa).
It's absolutley faultless quality, with 7' wide side hinged timber doors,
side door, 3 opening windows, 7'7" eaves, and a 38kg mineral felt OSB
boarded apex roof.
All I had to do was lay a suitable base (I laid it 12" thick - if I drop a
big-block V8 off the workbench, that floor ain't gonna crack!).
It's a round edges timber frame, clad in tanalized plu than tanalized T&G.
Not a bad price, either - £3400, including VAT, delivery and erection (1 day
for 2 guys).
As for the electrics, my garage is about 40' from the house, so I ran power
from the consumer unit in the house to a seperate consumer unit in the
garage using that exterior/underground 3 core cable - bl**dy hard to bend
(in a tight radius, at least), and incredibly heavy (for cable), but
designed for the job. Enough cable to take the power out theat far was
somewhere around £35 from Wickes.
