Hi there ,wondering if anyone has had a garden office built , my girlfriend is working from home more and more and really needs a good garden office , we have looked at a few but there all look like large sheds , the main thing is to have it fully insulated and that it looks like and office with nice patio doors and a decent window for lots of daylight coming through , if anyone one can recommend any companies that fully supply and put up the office would really appreciate it

Regards

Dave

About seven or eight years ago i used http://www.northstreetsheds.co.uk/ i got a 20ft x 10 ft cabin/shed delivered and erected for approx ?1200 the shiplap exterior is really good quality 19mm thick fixed to 3" x 2" frame work inside. They built the shed to my design with a large opening for french doors and upvc windows which i sourced myself. the inside inc the floor i had insulated with kingspan and walls and ceilings were thermal boarded on top and plastered. Electrics and laminated flooring.i use a small oil filled electric radiator which heats it up in minutes.The shed looks like the day i got it well pleased. The total project from memory was about ?4500 and worth every penny the only thing i could knock was a poor quality roofing felt which i replaced.

Love these garden studios, jesska. Any hint on ballpark costs and what was included?

Hi again, the London Garden studios have a tab for prices and they vary according to size. But that basically included instal and all the interior kit/electrics/finishes. You can customise things with a roof light or extra windows. We had an extra bit put on (making ours an L shape) to house actual garden stuff. But they were really easy to work with and they have done a few in the area now.

    • Ocado stopped sourcing from Waitrose a few years ago. They now source from M&S and general brands. Waitrose have their own delivery service now. I don't know how well served SE22 is by it. Ocado offers for new customers are, or certainly were, really good, particularly in the run up to Christmas. I think I got 20%/15%/10% up to a maximum of £100 spend off my first three deliveries with no delivery charge or commitment to sign up for further deliveries. There wasn't a time limit, IIRC, so it was a great way of restocking heavy store cupboard basics and stuff for the freezer.
    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?
