WHETHER YOU GO BESPOKE OR DIY, IS ADDING A GARDEN ROOM TO YOUR PROPERTY GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY?
Garden buildings

Garden rooms are becoming more popular than ever. Perhaps it's the increase in remote working contracts or the warmer summers extending a garden's use, but increasingly homeowners are looking for cost-effective ways to extend the usable living space within their current homes. More space and a change of lifestyle without having to move house? Who wouldn't want an extra room in their back garden!

A well-planned garden room provides a unique alternative to traditional home extension methods, creating more space, however you choose to use it. A garden room can be anything your heart desires, from a tranquil garden home office or yoga studio to a self-sufficient annexe for extra accommodation – whatever your budget allows.

While a garden room might not add as much value to your home as a traditional extension or loft conversion, they take considerably less construction time, less intrusion and a lot less investment – making a garden room great value for money in the long run.
