Has anyone used a shed in the garen to work from home?


Recommended Posts

Hi there,


We have just had a little baby and are needing extra room! As budget is tight we were thinking of erecting a shed in the garden for my partner to work in. Has anyone done this and have any tips or things that have worked or haven't or things we should look out for?


Any advice would be much appreciated!


Many thanks,


Annie

The only thing I would warn you to look out for is the spiders. They love ours. Arachnids as big as your head have come out from under the floorboards.


Other than that it?s a great office/yoga space/loud guitar playing room/batcave.

I have a buddy journalist who put in a shed/office in the garden and it works well although it was not a cheap structure as it was a flat packed cottage lookalike, it needs to be fully insulated (roof and walls)


I built my own which cost 2.5k for the bits and pieces, and a few weeks of time and energy, his cost more than double that.

    • Caught him a few years ago at a bizarre gig in Canterbury and know his London agent.  Sad but he wants a well man.  It was a pleasure to have seen him a few times, always different!  Hadn't realised he had been a local.
    • Stewart Lee, who I have seen numerous times, played a gig 18 months ago in Peckham, turning up late and doing around 12 mins of an expected headliner slot.  He has no social media presence and is uncontactable.  I complained to the ticket agents and promoters to no avail.  Obviously I wouldn't boycott a paper due to this incident. With hard copy print declining more liberal media need support irrespective of how easy it is to pick holes.  The decline of regional and local papers has compounded the issue of so many drawing their information from the right wing/populist press, and unverified reports on social media.
    • Avoid companies that are run by non trades people Seems to be the trend lately. Check them on Companies house first. There are some great family companies or sole traders.
