Beat the Winter Weather with a new Compton Concrete Garage!
If you're fed up spending time in the bitter cold, scraping ice & snow off the car then a new garage from Compton provides the solution.
Compton Garages’ market research shows that many people who don’t use a garage spend around 10 minutes de-icing their cars on cold winter mornings - ten minutes that could be better spent in bed!
The weight of snow can bend or break wipers and pouring hot water over the glass can crack your windscreen, not forgetting the icy pavements left behind that can lead to accidents.
A new garage costs less than you think. So why not take the bite out of winter and consider a Compton garage delivered and built for just a fraction more than the £1000 fine you could be charged by police for driving with restricted vision. See the Compton range for yourself by visiting your local agent - click here for details.

This will be added to over time - check it out by clicking here. If you have any photographs of Compton garages that you feel we could add please email them to us at marketing@compton-buildings.co.uk

Happy 50th Birthday Compton!
Today is Compton's 50th birthday.
Compton Buildings have been manufacturing products from the current site at Fenny Compton since being founded by Cyril Kyme on 12th November 1958. Compton has since built more concrete garages than any other company, providing valuable extra storage space and a new home for the car to over 500,000 customers.
Designs of products and working conditions have frequently changed for the better throughout its history. However, Compton Building’s ranges of Compton concrete garages, Alton cedar greenhouses and Robinsons aluminium greenhouses are still proving popular with customers throughout the UK thanks to a strong culture of manufacturing quality products backed by excellent customer service.

Garage Your Car & Beat the Bad Weather!
The recent bad weather has led many of us to think I wish I had a garage to put my car into rather than spending time in the bitter cold, scraping ice & snow off the car.
Compton Garages’ market research shows that many people who don’t use a garage spend around 10 minutes de-icing their cars on cold winter mornings -ten minutes that could be better spent in bed!
The weight of snow can bend or break wipers and pouring hot water over the glass can crack your windscreen, not forgetting the icy pavements left behind that can lead to accidents.
A new garage costs less than you think. So why not take the bite out of winter and consider a Compton garage delivered and built for just a fraction more than the £1000 fine you could be charged by police for driving with restricted vision.
Neil O’Sullivan, Marketing Manager for Compton Buildings, said: “With winter now making its presence known it is harder to drag yourself out of bed in the mornings. People find themselves running late for work, so the last thing you want to do is walk outside and have to de-ice your car or clear away snow.
“A garage helps protect your car from the winter weather and this means our garages give you those extra precious minutes under the duvet on a cold winter morning.”

Don't move - improve with Compton Concrete Garages!
Recent statistics confirm the extent to which we are becoming a nation of improvers rather than movers.
Figures from the land registry suggest that 2008 will see the total number of home transactions fall to the lowest level since the 1960s. To counter the slowdown in the housing market home owners are increasingly spending money on upgrading their properties especially as planning permission laws have been eased.
Adding a new garage is one of the best ways to boost the value of your home. Recent research by the Nationwide Building Society demonstrated that single garages typically add 7.7% to the value of a home and double garages add 14.5%. Make sure you get the best value around by finding your local Compton agent here.
