GLÔ HOUSE

About us

It started with a sauna we wanted to buy for ourselves.

Glô House was founded in South East London after regular sauna use quietly changed the way we felt, slept and recovered. When we went looking for one of our own, the UK market let us down.

We came to saunas the way most people do. A few sessions at a gym, then a week away somewhere with a cabin by the water, and then the realisation that the days we bathed were simply better days. Better sleep, looser shoulders, a clearer head. Within a few months it had become a habit we did not want to be without.

So we set out to buy one. What we found was a market split in two. There were budget cabins built to a price that would not survive a British winter, and there were genuinely premium products with a price tag to match. Neither offered what we actually wanted: high quality, honestly priced, and simple to buy.

The bigger problem was everything that came afterwards. Customers were left holding a pallet in the driveway, ringing round for a groundworker, chasing an electrician, booking someone to assemble it, and hoping the three of them turned up in the right order. The product was only ever half the job, and nobody was doing the other half.

That is why Glô House exists. We supply premium European saunas, handcrafted in Estonia by a family run joinery, and we take care of the whole process around them: delivery, foundation bases, professional assembly and Part P registered electrical installation where it is required. One company, one point of contact, one quote that covers all of it.

We keep the range deliberately small, because we would rather know a handful of products intimately and tell you honestly which one belongs in your home, or that none of them do.

Thermowood only

Every outdoor sauna we build is Thermowood

Every outdoor barrel sauna we build is made exclusively from Thermowood, timber modified at around 200°C using only heat and steam. More durable than standard spruce, it resists rot, absorbs less moisture and stays stable through changing weather. Better insulation helps retain heat, while proper care ensures a longer lifespan. It costs us more, but we believe it is worth it for a British garden.
