Quick questions
Do I need a base?
Yes – every garden building needs a firm, level base, ready before your building is put up. Where we sell a matching base for this building, you’ll see it as an option above.
Prefer concrete? Our partner Midland Base Works lays precision concrete bases – ask us if they cover your area.
Getting the size right: the size in a building’s name (for example “8x6”) is a rounded, nominal size. The real floor or base footprint can be a little different, and the roof usually overhangs further. Build your base to the manufacturer’s base or floor measurement, not the name.
Can’t see the exact base size for your size on this page? WhatsApp us before you lay a base and we’ll check it with the manufacturer.
Do I need planning permission?
Many garden buildings don’t, but some do – it depends on the size, the height and where it goes in your garden.
Try our free 2-minute Planning Permission Checker or read the planning permission guide.
When will it arrive?
Typical delivery: 3–5 weeks from order.
We’ll call you, usually within 24 hours of your order, to confirm the details and the current lead time. Not ready yet? Delivery can usually be pushed back to suit you – order now and have it delivered later.
What guarantee does it come with?
Manufacturer’s guarantee: 10 years. Terms vary by manufacturer, including any care needed to keep it valid.

Yes – our Display Site at Buzzards Valley, Tamworth has a selection of buildings on show, open 7 days. We don’t have every model on display, so give us a call before you visit if you’d like to see something in particular, or book a time if you’d like someone there to show you round.

Description
The Whittington Triple sits between our Double and four-car models: three bays side by side under one long, gently arched roof. It is the size that suits a household that has outgrown a double — two cars and a work van, or two cars and a third bay kept for the caravan, the boat, the ride-on mower or a proper covered space to work and sit in.
Like the rest of the Whittington range it is built on curved laminated beams, which soften the line of the roof and stop a structure of this length looking like a barn. A timber carport earns its place on a larger drive for the same reasons it does on a small one — no doors to heave up, no foundations to dig beyond the drive you already have, room to walk round every vehicle, and frost, sap and leaf-fall kept off the paintwork — but at this width you also gain a genuinely useful covered outdoor room.

Is the Triple the right step up? Three ordinary family cars fit side by side with room to open the doors. If the third bay is mainly for a caravan, a trailer or a workshop area, check the height under the beam at the front as well as the clear width between the posts. If you need four bays, see the Whittington Carport for 4 Cars; if two is plenty, the Whittington Double is the same design in a smaller footprint.
Base and planning: The carport needs a firm, level surface across its whole footprint — an existing concrete, block-paved or tarmac drive is usually ideal, as the post holders anchor straight down into it. More on choosing a base. At this size it is well worth checking the rules before you order: many carports fall under permitted development, but the position relative to the house, conservation areas and listed buildings all change the picture. See our planning permission guide.
Recommended accessories: The timber arrives pressure-treated and needs no immediate attention, but a coat of exterior wood stain will hold the colour if you would rather it did not silver. See the Protek stains and treatments in Accessories & Extras.
Delivery & installation: Made to order and delivered on a 13.6m articulated lorry — please note that arranging a team to unload the pallet on site is the customer's responsibility. It arrives flat-packed as a self-assembly kit, and at this size most customers ask us to arrange installation through our trusted local team. Delivery & installation info.
