ECONOMY GARAGES

Leofric Economy garages are versatile highly competitive, designed to be virtually maintenance free and available in a choice of aggregate finishes to harmonise with the immediate environment.

Where co-ordination with surrounding materials is essential, wall ties can be incorporated for cladding of flank and rear walls with brick or stonework.

Rainwater goods to rear or front draining roof are fitted as standard. Galvanised steel bargeboards are fitted as standard to weather the roof and wall junction. These are maintenance-free, colour coated dark brown to provide a neat trim appearance at high level and are intentionally close fitting, rigid and shallow to deter vandals.

Simple foundations and rapid on-site construction make Leofric Economy Garages a fast and reliable addition to any development.
