Adjust the Size and Shape
Choose standard or extended lengths, shift the slope direction, or add width to fit your driveway or fence line. Our garages can be adapted to fit irregular garden shapes, giving you more flexibility.
Pent Garages
Pent garages offer compact strength, modern style, and efficient drainage in a space-saving footprint. Their single-pitch roof slopes in one direction, making them ideal for tighter urban plots or alongside property boundaries. Many homeowners and developers need storage without bulk, or a tidy workspace that complements a contemporary home. Flat roof designs often struggle with drainage or longevity. Pent garages solve this by blending sharp, minimal lines with angled roofs and custom features for practical, long-term use.
Sleek, Strong and Space-Saving Garages for Urban or Narrow Lots
Pent garages deliver simplicity with performance. With a sloped roof that directs rainwater away and a low-profile design that reduces planning issues, they’re a practical choice for vehicle storage, garden tools, or light workshops. Whether you’re a homeowner needing security for your car or a DIYer planning a quiet workspace, the layout and form suit a wide range of needs without overpowering your property.
Each Noah pent garage is built to order in our UK workshop using high-quality materials and strong timber framing. You get dependable weather resistance, insulation where needed, and an external finish to match your style.

02.
Pick the Right Materials
Opt for natural timber cladding, weather-resistant composite boards, or high-spec cedar for a sharp finish. Each material offers a different look and maintenance level to suit your lifestyle.
03.
Configure Entry and Light
Single or double doors, roller systems, windows, or skylights—configure for light, security, and convenience. You can also position openings to suit your plot for better access.
04.
Add Useful Interior Features
Include insulation packs, power connections, internal linings, anti-slip flooring, or shelving setups. With smart interior choices, your garage becomes a usable space year-round.
Built for Efficiency With Quality Panels and Sloped Design
Pent garages may be compact, but they’re robust. Built with durable timber frames and weather-sealed panels, these structures handle daily use and year-round weather. The sloped roof not only helps with drainage but also contributes to the garage’s clean, understated look.
Insulated Panel Options
Choose insulated panels to keep equipment safe and reduce damp—ideal for working in or storing sensitive items. This also helps regulate temperature across the seasons.
Solid Structural Frame
Every garage includes a reinforced timber frame, ensuring rigidity and strength from ground to roof. These supports keep the building stable under load or in poor weather.
Slope for Drainage
The single-pitched roof is angled to direct water flow cleanly off the back or side, preventing pooling and minimising the risk of long-term water damage.
Weatherproof Exterior Choices
Cladding materials are chosen for resilience. Whether timber, cedar, or composite, each resists moisture and ageing with minimal upkeep required.

Do You Need Planning Permission for a Pent Garage?
In many cases, pent garages fall within permitted development rights. Generally, structures under 2.5 m high and located within the back garden meet these guidelines without needing formal consent.
However, location near boundaries or use for business/overnight purposes may still require planning checks. If you’re in a conservation area, always check with your local authority first. Read our full Planning Guide for more information.

Pent Garages – FAQs
A pent garage features a single-sloped roof (or “pent” roof), offering a modern aesthetic and practical benefits such as efficient rainwater drainage. Compared to apex garages, which have a dual-pitch roof, pent garages are better suited to tighter spaces and urban settings. They’re ideal for customers seeking a sleek, low-profile solution.
