Why Choose a Garden Room?

A garden room is a standalone structure built in your garden, providing additional living space that can be used for a variety of purposes. Whether you need a home office, a studio, a gym, or a place to relax and enjoy your garden, a garden room is a versatile and cost-effective solution. A garden room can also add value to your home and enhance your quality of life.

Whether a garden room requires planning permission in the UK depends on a few key factors:

• Size – Garden rooms under 30 square metres in size generally do not need planning permission. Anything larger will require permission.
• Location – If the garden room is more than 20 metres away from the house, it is more likely to need permission. Close proximity to the home is better.
• Height – Garden rooms over 2.5 metres in height generally need planning approval. Maintaining a low height avoids permission.
• Use – If the garden room will be used as an office or living space, permission is typically needed. Using it as a simple storage shed may avoid permission.
• Materials – Temporary structures may get around permissions. Permanent brick or timber buildings usually require planning applications.
• Overlooking – Garden rooms that overlook or impact neighbours’ properties will need planning permission.

Even if planning permission isn’t required, you may still need to comply with building regulations for electrics, structure, etc. It’s best to check with your local authority to determine if your specific garden room proposal requires planning permission or not. We can also advise you based on our extensive experience in the area.
