But up a marquee to the back of your house.

The marquee is butted right up to your house and leaned towards your property where if there are no obstructions, our marquee is touching your house.  If you looked directly up between the “join” (there is no physical join!) of the marquee and your property you may see a small gap, however most house roof’s protrude further out than the house wall, so the roof will catch any rain that may have landed in between the tiny gap between the marquee & house.

If you have a soffit/gutter just above your doors that protrudes out (quite common on new single storey extensions) the marquee will be butted right up to the soffit that sticks out. 

What we do to make this gap as airtight as we possibly can is infill the gaps with a rolled piece of carpet either side of the doors – so in winter it reduces any draughts that come through.

He gave me so much confidence they could provide exactly what I wanted...

Adam was brilliant from the start and he was so easy to collaborate with in terms of helping me complete my requirements for my sons’s 18th party.

We wanted a marquee up against our bi fold doors to ideally keep the teenagers out of the house, but giving them a place to celebrate without us parents too close!  

Adam understood my brief very well and told me this is something they do quite often for winter time events.  He gave me so much confidence they could provide exactly what I wanted.

He was friendly and very responsive. The delivery and installation of marquee and all the accessories went very smoothly and the fitters, Glen and Ben did a great job and showed me how to operate everything.

On Monday morning 2 other fitters came to dismantle the marquee and take it away – great service and professionalism from them too. Chris and Mark!

Same fantastic service! I would definitely use them again and highly recommend this company if you want peace of mind and a great customer experience! Thank you Adam and Team!

Can I have a Marquee right up to the back of my House?

Can You Attach a Marquee to your House?

Walk from your house into your marquee as if it was another room...

A marquee installed over your doors instantly gives you that much needed space for your event. The marquee can be installed over bi fold doors, french doors, sliding doors…any doors!

Give your event the extra capacity it needs and take the pressure off the house.  It’s a great solution for house parties where you’d like access into the house but you’re keen to keep most of the guests in the marquee – to protect your house from any accidental damage.

No physical drilling is required to but up a marquee to your house. It leans against the house ensuring it doesn’t damage your property in any way.

There is no physical join between the marquee and the house – we install the marquee as close as we possibly can (which can be within 20mm as long as there are no physical obstructions from the house)

See more here from our blog post about butting up a marquee to your house.

They can be installed over most doors including french doors, sliding doors and bi fold doors.

How Does Butting up a Marquee to your House work?

The eave height of a marquee will allow you to but up a marquee to your house quite easily.  The roof rafters of a commercial grade marquee are as tall as 2m high which is tall enough to span over even the tallest of bi fold doors.  You can then step from your house seamlessly into the marquee as if it was another room giving you that much needed space for your party.

We contacted Abacus to put up a marquee in our garden for our daughter's wedding. It was very quick to agree and finalise the contract with instant responses. The setup was done ahead of agreed date and very quickly and efficiently. The marquee was setup very beautifully and it became a place for everyone to hang about after the wedding. I can whole heartedly recommend the service of every one Abacus.

The team were helpful in discussing our needs with us..we have a strange shaped garden and weren’t sure what we needed, in terms of shape and size. A team member came over and advised us, with the proviso that we could cancel an additional smaller marquee if we felt we didn’t need one on the day. The team arrived as agreed and two of them put the marquee up in a couple of hours. It looked terrific..the flooring was great, the interior lining and the lights made the whole thing look really pretty and the heating was effective. Although there was no wind or rain on the day, the whole thing felt solid and secure. The team were really helpful in accommodating our timings for taking the marquee down, as we were going away on the same day, and were done very quickly. I’m so glad I found Party in Your Garden and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and use them again

Great communication, delivered on time and super friendly staff. The marquee was exactly as described. Delivered on Thursday for event on the Saturday. Collected on Monday (bank holiday) very promptly and again really friendly staff. Highly recommend and would definitely use again. Point to note - I didn’t think the fairy lights would be bright enough to light the marquee on a dark night so I had bought additional lighting - but they were really very effective and additional lighting (whilst a bonus) weren’t necessary.
