Overview
Why garden rooms?
An insulated garden room gives you a home office, studio or gym away from the house — with full-height glazing so it feels part of the garden.
We design each garden room for its plot and use, including glazing, insulation and electrics, and price it after a free design survey.

Planning, regulations and timings
Planning and Building Regulations
Many garden buildings fall under permitted development if they stay within height limits (2.5 m within 2 metres of a boundary), sit behind the front of the house and aren't used for sleeping. Small outbuildings without sleeping accommodation are often exempt from Building Regulations; larger or habitable ones need approval. Listed buildings and conservation areas have tighter rules — we check yours at survey.
Electrical work
Power for lighting, heating, motorised parts or smart glass is notifiable electrical work. It must be carried out by a registered competent person or approved by building control, and you receive an electrical installation certificate.
Designed after a free survey
Every one is designed for its site, so there is no honest 'typical' price. We measure and design it at a free design survey, and you get a written quote before anything is ordered.
Questions
Garden rooms: your questions answered
How much does a garden room cost?
Every one is designed for the site, so we price a garden room after a free design survey rather than quote a misleading 'typical' figure. You get a written quote before anything is ordered, and nothing is built until you've approved the design.
Do I need planning permission for a garden room?
Often not, if it stays within permitted development limits — including 2.5 m maximum height within 2 metres of a boundary — and isn't used for sleeping. Listed buildings and conservation areas have tighter rules.
Can I use a garden room all year?
Yes, with proper insulation and heating. Air conditioning is an efficient way to heat and cool a small room.
Can I sleep in a garden room?
Sleeping accommodation changes the planning and Building Regulations position, so tell us at the design survey if that's the plan.
