Hi Jane and Norfolk Villas (or anyone else who's done this), I am looking for a garden studio too, and wondered if you'd be willing to share any recommendations? There seems to be a lot out there, and I don't really know where to start - any personal recommendations would be gratefully received!

Many thanks!

Hi there,


We had an office built in the garden back in 2012 and used a company called Gembuild - www.gembuild.co.uk


They were really good, professional and we were really pleased with the result. The office/shed was built over a weekend and assembled in the garden with the materials being brought through the house. They have a range of designs and materials. Ours is in Cedar. I have attached a photo. We have a double sofa bed in there and use it also as an extra room when guest stay as well as an office.

Hi a friend of mine Toby has just built a really good timber clad garden office for my mother in law - full electrics, kitchen, plastered etc and very reasonably priced. I know she is really happy with the finish. Toby has also installed a bathroom for myself which is finished to a very high standard.


His number is 07737 775914

My daughter wants a "writing shed" - much like described and pictured. I'd be really interested in how much it would cost for a basic model, but insulated so it can be furnished with a beanbag, bookshelf, desk and chair; with electrics and warm enough to write in over autumn (or even winter if we put a wood burner in!)


Could anyone give me an idea of costs please - and how to keep costs down?


Thanks!

    • Oh give it a break.  We have an MP who makes racist comments, yet our media (and what seems like this Forum) that generally hate Labour (and loved Johnson) are just out looking for the dirt. It's a move on, nothing to see here.  Particularly if she used a letting agency.
    • Hi all, I highly recommend Rob Mills Gas Safe boiler engineer, helpful and knowledgeable. contact number 07952584171    
    • I don't think a single all-inclusive URL is easily doable.  When you enter a search the system presents the result without any of one's search parameters added to the URL.  So I suggest you go to https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/search.do?action=advanced where you just need to enter the address -- use SE22 8EW -- and the  Date Received start date.  I used 1/1/2025.  The three Tesco applications, all minor things, were all made in May.  The Simple search that I'd done previously had no time limit, and didn't include anything else that might have been from Tesco in the last two years. Incidentally, when I searched on the address 29-35 Lordship Lane it did not pick up the Tesco applications, which were held as 29 - 35 Lordship Lane Grrr!
