Jon said “I’m Jon, Founder of Hawksbeck Annexes and Garden Rooms. I set up Hawksbeck because there was a real need for people to have a space away from the house to work, rest and play. We have been a pioneer in annex and garden room space, building bespoke outbuildings that will last a lifetime. All our buildings are built to the highest standard using BBA accredited materials. They are design by architects and engineers and meet building regulations. Therefore, they are fully habitable and come with a 10-year insurance backed warranty. I name the company Hawksbeck, as that was my first dogs pedigree name. I absolutely love the dog, and absolutely love the name, so seemed perfect fit to name the company after him. I’m proud that name has now become synonymous with quality, service, and design. I'm passionate about what I do. I love the first meeting with the client, being involved in the design journey with them, overseeing the built process, then they joy and excitement when we handover the keys to a stunning finish product. I often get asked my favourite project, it is always the next project we're about to do. No two builds are the same, no two clients are the same!”
