Create your perfect extra space
We design and build premium garden rooms tailored to your lifestyle — a proper, insulated room at the end of the garden that you'll use every month of the year, not just in July.
Bespoke designs
Tailored to your space and needs. We design around the garden you have — the awkward corner, the slope, the tree you're not losing.
Premium quality
Built to the highest standards. Proper foundations, insulated throughout, finished inside so it's a room you'd happily sit in on a February morning.
Natural aesthetic
Seamlessly blending with your garden. Timber cladding that weathers in rather than shouting, and clean lines that sit quietly behind the house.
Quick and efficient
Minimal disruption, maximum results. Most rooms are built in a matter of weeks, not months, and we leave the garden as we found it.
What it could be
One build, whatever you need it for
The structure is the same standard every time. What changes is the layout, the glazing and the fit-out.
Built properly
A room, not a shed
Insulated floor, walls and roof. Aluminium doors and double glazing. Plastered, decorated and floored before we hand it over. The difference shows in February.

How it works
From first call to handover
Six steps, no surprises. You'll know what's happening and what it costs before anyone lifts a spade.
- 01
A conversation
Call or send a message with a rough idea of what you want and where it might go. We'll tell you honestly whether it's straightforward or whether the garden is going to fight us.
- 02
Free site visit
We come out, measure up, look at access and ground levels, and talk through sizes and layouts standing in the actual spot. No charge and no pressure.
- 03
Design and quote
You get a design and a written, itemised quote — what's included, what isn't, and what it costs. If it needs changing, we change it before anyone commits.
- 04
Groundwork and base
We prepare the ground and lay the base. Getting this right is most of the job; it's why the rooms stay square and the doors keep closing properly years later.
- 05
Build and fit-out
Frame, insulation, cladding, roof, doors and glazing, then electrics and the internal finish. Tidy site at the end of every day.
- 06
Handover
We walk you round it, hand over the paperwork, and clear the garden. Then it's yours.

Common questions
The things everyone asks
Planning permission first, because it's the one that worries people most.
Do I need planning permission for a garden room?
Usually not. Most garden rooms in England are built under permitted development, which generally means single storey, a maximum overall height of 2.5m if it sits within two metres of a boundary, not forward of the front of the house, and not covering more than half the garden. It also can't be used as self-contained living accommodation. Listed buildings, conservation areas, National Parks and AONBs have tighter rules. We'll tell you where we think you stand on the site visit, but the final word is always your local planning department — and it's free to ask them.
Does it need building regulations approval?
Generally no. In England, an outbuilding under 15m² of floor area with no sleeping accommodation doesn't need building regulations approval. Between 15m² and 30m² it's normally still exempt provided there's no sleeping accommodation and it either sits at least a metre from any boundary or is built from substantially non-combustible material. If you want somewhere anyone will sleep, that's a different conversation and different rules.
How much does a garden room cost?
We don't publish prices, because the honest answer depends on size, spec, glazing, access and what the ground is like. A room on a flat lawn with a gate wide enough for a barrow is a very different job to one behind a terrace with everything carried through the house. You'll get a written, itemised quote after a free site visit, and it won't move afterwards unless you change something.
How long does it take to build?
Most rooms are on site for a matter of weeks rather than months, though it depends on size, spec and weather. We'll give you a realistic window with the quote and tell you straight away if anything changes.
Can I use it all year round?
That's the point of building it properly. Floor, walls and roof are insulated and the glazing is double glazed, so it holds its heat in winter rather than being a summerhouse you shut up in October.
