Frequently Asked Questions

What is the average cost of a garden room?

Costs vary depending on the size of the room and the internal specification. As a guide, our garden rooms are typically priced at around £1,400–£1,600 per square metre.

Do I need planning permission?

Usually not, provided the garden room falls within permitted development rules. A key restriction is that if the building is within 2 metres of a boundary, its maximum overall height is 2.5 metres. Other restrictions can apply, particularly for listed properties and homes in conservation areas.

Do you do site visits?

Absolutely. A site visit allows our team to see where the garden room will be built, take accurate measurements, understand access and the garden layout, and discuss your design ideas. It gives us everything we need to design a genuinely bespoke build for your property.

How long does it take to build?

A typical garden room build takes approximately 4–7 weeks, depending on the size, specification and site conditions.

How close to my neighbour’s fence can I build?

You can build right up to the boundary, but we generally recommend leaving a small gap to allow for guttering, drainage and future maintenance.

Will I receive drawings with my quote?

Yes. We provide a detailed layout with dimensions, 3D designs and an AI-generated visual of the overall look. This helps you visualise the finished room and make any amendments before the build begins.

Do you offer payment plans?

We do not offer finance or payment plans. Instead, we split the project cost into manageable staged instalments, with only a 10% deposit required to secure your start date.

Can I build in a conservation area or at a listed property?

If you live in a conservation area or national park, or your property is listed, permitted development rights may be restricted and formal approval is likely to be required. We recommend checking with your local planning authority before proceeding.

Do you demolish existing sheds or patios and remove debris?

Yes. We can demolish and remove existing sheds, patios and other site materials before the build starts. We’ll assess the work required and provide a separate quote for this service.

Will my garden room include electricity, internet and plumbing?

Yes. Electrical provision for lighting, heating and Wi-Fi connectivity is straightforward and can be included. If you would like running water, a sink or a toilet, this requires specialist plumbing and connection to the property’s water and drainage systems.

How do I maintain my garden room?

Maintenance is minimal and depends mainly on the cladding. Composite cladding usually only needs an occasional hose-down, while cedar cladding should typically be treated around every 12 months to keep it looking its best.
