Hanson Garages

Hanson Garages: concrete and prefab buildings from West Yorkshire

Hanson Garages, the trading name of Hanson Buildings Limited, manufactures and installs concrete garages, prefab garages, concrete sheds, workshops and industrial buildings in the UK. The company was established in 1970 and operates from purpose-built premises at Warren Road, Green Lane Industrial Park, Featherstone (WF7 6EL). It describes itself as an employee-owned trust business, with the workforce involved in key decision-making, and says it operates through five divisions serving both the public and commercial sectors.

The company states that its buildings are manufactured, delivered and installed by its own qualified employees, a structure it presents as a way to maintain control over product quality and provide a complete service. It also reports more than 40 years of experience, around 70 employees and over 2,000 buildings installed each year.

Garage ranges and finishes

The garage catalogue is organised by finish. The white UPVC range is described as the best-selling sectional prefab garage, a high-specification model that includes the most popular options as standard. The anthracite finish, marketed as the ‘Graphite’, is presented as an ultra-modern design with a distinctive look. The stone finish, called the ‘Earl’, combines agate grey fascias with stone grey brick fronts. The woodgrain range, the ‘Woodthorpe’, is positioned as the top of the range and shares features with the best-selling ‘Royale’ range. A clad finish option is also offered for garages, sheds and workshops, described as durable and maintenance-free.

Beyond these premium lines, the range includes a standard timber finish, lean-to garages, special garages and spare parts and accessories. The company also lists battery garages and a steel building range.

Sheds, workshops, garden rooms and insulated buildings

In addition to garages, Hanson supplies concrete sheds and workshops, garden rooms, insulated steel garages and insulated steel garden rooms, as well as industrial buildings. These products extend the same prefabricated construction approach to storage, workspace and domestic outbuilding uses.

Installation and support services

The services listed include concrete bases and garage removals, garage refurbishments and a garage door replacement service. The company also offers a free detailed quotation, a free site survey carried out by its own team, and installation by skilled fitters. Each building carries a 10-year structural warranty, according to the company.

Employee ownership and customer feedback

Hanson Buildings Limited is structured as an Employee Ownership Trust, a model the company says involves staff from the shop floor to executives in the success of the business. Customer satisfaction is presented as a priority, and the company attributes its growth to repeat and satisfied customers. The site displays a Trustpilot rating of 4.9 and separately cites an ‘Excellent – 4.8 Stars’ score based on more than 1,000 user reviews, alongside individual testimonials about installation teams and completed garages.

Practical information and resources

The website provides a downloadable brochure and price list, a resource centre with a ‘Care & Maintenance’ manual, a customer charter, a frequently asked questions section and an agent finder. It also lists current offers and ex-display show models. The company’s stated opening hours are Monday to Thursday from 8:30AM to 5:00PM and Friday from 8:30AM to 3:00PM.
