FAQs

“Are all of your pods bespoke?”

Yes. We do not offer a catalogue of standard pods but tailor-make each and every one to each client’s individual specification.

“What can I use my garden room for?”

A garden room can be used for any means whatsoever, the pod is your room to utilise how you wish! From a home office, home gym, games room, art studio, playroom, music room, cinema room, treatment room, snug, pool house or as an annexe……… the options are endless…. Do feel free to contact us about any of your proposed ideas.

“Will I need planning permission?”

We do try to ensure that all of our pods are designed to fall within ‘permitted development’ and therefore in the majority of cases you will not require planning permission. However, the final size and location of the pod and curtilage of your site will determine whether planning permission is required.

“Where is the pod built and how long will you be on-site?”

This is entirely dependent on the size of the pod and whether we construct the pod on-site or deliver as a complete unit (dependent on accessibility). If building on-site our installation team is usually on-site for 2- 3 weeks; if built in our warehouse and craned into position, we allow 3-4 days.

“Can my garden room have underfloor heating?”

Yes. Underfloor heating can definitely be installed as an optional extra. Its worth noting that in most cases this is not a necessity due to all units being very well insulated.

“How will power be connected to my pod?”

There are two options of connecting power to your new space, either to your main energy supply or to have solar panels installed on the roof.

“Can I have a home cinema installed in a garden room and will it be secure?”

All garden rooms are built to be as secure as any home or office and therefore a vast array of equipment can be installed inside.

“How long does the whole process take?”

Where planning permission is not required, the aim would be to design, deliver and install your pod within 8 weeks.

“What is the payment plan? “

We require a deposit of 40% of the quoted price with a further 40% payable during the final stages of installation and the remaining 20% payable within 7 days of your pod being completed.
