Craig got in touch quickly, gave me a rough estimate over the phone and answered all my questions. Surveyor arrived on time, gave instant quote. Price was good. Michael and (another) Craig turned up to do the job on the day, time given. Good, tidy job. Can't fault anything, from start to finish!! Would recommend!

George and his team are experienced builders, replaced my front door with a custom frame/sidelights and raising the floor level in the hallway quite quickly - in fact, they were the only who came next day, gave a quote straightaway and were ready to start in just couple of days. They also had all the necessary tools and materials, were ready to buy something additional quickly on the day - if further adjustments were required to fit everything as I asked. Thanks a lot for your help, guys!

Dmitry

Highly recommend. These guys did a fantastic job of constructing our pergola and decking. Very hardworking and reliable. The job was completed in the time frame agreed and to a very high standard. We would 100% use them again.

Local garden office & studio installation

Types of garden offices & studios

Garden Office Pods: Compact and modern, these stand-alone structures are perfect for small spaces and are designed for efficient work environments.

Insulated Garden Offices: Built with proper insulation, these offices are ideal for year-round use, providing comfort in all weather conditions.

Garden Shed Offices: A functional upgrade to a traditional shed, these offer a budget-friendly option for creating a home workspace or studio in your garden.

Cost of a garden office

The cost of installing a garden office can vary based on size, materials, and additional features*:

  • Basic Garden Office: For a small, simple structure, costs start around £5,000 to £10,000.
  • Insulated Garden Office: An insulated garden office or pod, complete with electricity and heating, may cost between £10,000 and £20,000 or more, depending on the quality of materials and insulation.
  • Custom Garden Studio: Larger, fully bespoke garden offices or studios with premium features can cost upwards of £20,000.

*Additional costs may arise for features like plumbing, wiring, or foundations.

How long does it take to install a garden office?

The installation time for a garden office depends on the size and complexity of the project. For small garden office pods, the process usually takes around 1 to 2 weeks. Larger, custom-built offices or studios that include additional features like plumbing or advanced electrical systems may take between 3 to 6 weeks to complete. Factors such as weather, site preparation, and customization can also impact the timeline.

Other garden office & studio FAQs

Do I need planning permission for a garden office?

In most cases, garden offices do not require planning permission as long as they meet certain size and height restrictions. However, it’s always best to check with your local authority, especially if you live in a listed building or conservation area.

Does a garden office or studio increase house value?

Yes, a well-designed garden office or studio can increase the value of your property by providing additional, functional space that appeals to potential buyers.

Can you have a toilet in a garden office?

Yes, you can add a toilet or even a small bathroom to your garden office, but this will require proper plumbing and drainage, which may increase the overall cost and installation time.

Absolutely delighted with the work Glen has done. Fantastic workmanship. Glen designed a brilliant bed unit which makes great use of an awkward space but has also given additional storage as a result of his design suggestion. Glen is an absolute star and I would highly recommend him.

John and the team did an outstanding job. It was easy to work with John and he was very knowledgeable, and provided very sensible advice. Other people quoted work which was over-the-top or wouldn't have solved the problem but John got right to the issue in a no-nonsense way. Quality of the work undertaken was very good, considering the age of the building and complexity. Would recommend.

We had them in to install insulation in our upstairs floor, replace the sub floor, replace some lights, install a loft hatch, and board out our loft. On top of this they discovered a problem in our roof that they fixed. We were incredibly impressed by all of the staff that attended on site. They were friendly, polite at all times, and worked really hard, to a high standard. I couldn't recommend James and his team more, and we've already started talking to them about a further project.
