What is a Garden Room?

Garden rooms are timber garden buildings that are built on a part of the property or could be attached to an existing building. Garden rooms are usually double glazed and fully insulated to make them comfortable for year-round use. Insulated rooms are not necessarily meant for occupancy, and they can be used as offices, storage spaces, storage sheds, and summer houses.

Building a home extension is an endeavor that may require a significant outlay of funds. Our garden rooms have many useful benefits and are worth having as an addition to any individual’s backyard and garden space.

  • A garden room is used to create extra space for leisure time and the indulgence of hobbies for those who would like some space on their own to pursue their interests.
  • A garden building can be transformed into living quarters without damaging the original plan of a home.

Types of Home Garden Rooms

There are many types of garden rooms that are informed with the many interests and uses they serve. Whilst there can be no hard and fast rules when it comes to the classification of garden rooms there are general types of garden rooms that can be mentioned aside from bespoke garden rooms that are specifically crafted for a particular use.

Below are some of those types:

Wooden Garages

These types of garden buildings are specifically designed so that they can store vehicles year-round with no damage to the building and the vehicles parked therein. High-quality windows and doors should be installed in them so that the weather does not damage both buildings and vehicles.

Home Gym

A home gym is a building that is designed for customers who want to work out in their homes and have the feel of a professional gym setting.

Home gyms are cost-effective additions to property and can be used by people to keep them in good shape.

Summers can be especially hot when individuals are consigned to their usual living quarters.

5. Does my Garden Office Need a Foundation?

Wood is the most commonly used cladding and is included in most design templates.

Doors and windows that are double glazed improve insulation of any space that has been designated as a garden room.
