PLANNING PERMISSION
Planning permission is generally not required for our buildings.
Our garden buildings are classed as outbuildings which fall within your permitted development rights, making them as hassle-free to have installed as a typical garden shed.
If you do not have permitted development rights at your property, or need to apply for planning permission for any other reason, we will take care of the application process for you – giving you one less thing to worry about.
SIZES
As long as the total size of the building is kept under 30 square metres and the height is less than 2.5m then planning permission should not be required. We cover these aspects by only offering these options as standard. The total size of your building includes the garden room and the overhang together.
POPULAR USE IDEA
HOT TUB SHELTER
A great idea for your garden room canopy could be to create a hot tub shelter.
Our garden room buildings are the perfect retreat to relax in away from the stresses of home. A hot tub is a perfect partner for your garden room, both making the most of the outside space and promoting outdoor living. Your shelter gives added privacy and protection from the weather come rain or shine.
We have teamed up with Hot Tub Hub at our Buckinghamshire showroom to display some of the UKs best hot tub designs alongside our garden room buildings!
PATIO AREA
Outdoor living and making the most of your garden with a patio area is a great way to increase the feeling of space.

Our Transparent Pricing
We include everything needed to get your building up and running within your quoted price – including base installation and VAT. As well as this you will receive a french sliding door set, flooring, plug sockets and much more to get you started as soon as construction finished.
Built to last, our buildings are suited for all year round. Meaning you can exercise at the comfort of your home whether it be rain or shine – no need for trips to the gym in the rain! Completely sealed and insulated just like a room in your home, our products can be used during the freezing winter months, and during the pouring rain.
FAQs
The canopy is available on the G1 building design. Available only on buildings with a maximum depth of 4m or less and the total footprint of your building including the canopy must not exceed 30 square metres.
Our canopy additions range from 1.5m as the smallest and 4m as the largest, going up in half a metre increments.
Our canopy can be added to both the left or right side of your G1 Garden Room, meaning you can create the garden room with canopy that is perfect to your requirements.
Whilst our garden rooms are temporary structures and are moveable. It is worth considering that the costs to move a building is chargeable to you and can equate to an amount that does not make moving the building viable.
Our garden room structures will need to remain free-standing due to the nature of their construction. However, we can build as close as 400mm to any solid obstacle, such as your house.
We do not offer bespoke building options. However, we do offer many different sizes and styles to suit your tastes and budget. You can start to design your building using our 3D Design Tool.
A canopy is a versatile addition to your garden room and is perfect for a hot tub enclosure, alfresco dining solution or outdoor entertainment space. It’s a great alternative to a pergola or gazebo.
Planning permission is not normally required as our buildings fall under permitted development (built under 2.5m high externally). Most houses, even in conservation areas and areas of outstanding natural beauty (AONB), have permitted development rights. Flats and listed buildings have no permitted development rights, so will always need planning permission. Don’t worry though, as planning is a relatively simple process for our garden rooms and we are on-hand to help with this process.
We offer a complete electrical connection from your house to the garden room at an additional cost, which will be confirmed at your design consultation. However, you are more than welcome to use your own preferred electrician for this.
