We offer on-site design consultations Monday through to Fridays during the day. We also offer virtual design consultations throughout the week.. If you would like to talk to us about booking one, please submit a design consultation enquiry.

Our team  will talk to you about the different ways of running electrics. We run a cable from the fusebox in the house to the fusebox (consumer unit) installed in the garden room. They will also look to see if you have any spare capacity in your existing fusebox, or if you’ll need a sub consumer unit installed. The quote will include a part P certificate sign off by our fully qualified electricians.

Not before your design consultation. our design team will be able to tell you how much levelling needs doing before the base team arrive.

Generally speaking, as long as your design consultant can see and get to the boundaries to measure the area then there is no need to remove any trees or shrubs before your design consultation.

We ask that all decision-makers are present at the design consultation. Your design consultant will look at the space available as well as your access and tell you what size buildings you can have. They’ll design your room with you, placing doors and windows on the building and select electrical and internal options. At the end of the consultation, you’ll know exactly how much your building will cost and what work needs doing.

Our friendly team will assess your site, including access and the chosen location to ensure that your desired building will fit and can be installed on your site. He will then sit with you to design the actual building, discuss all options available to you, answer any questions you may have and provide indicative costs. A formal quotation will follow on within a couple of days.

Not necessarily. Our Consultant just needs to see the area that you wish to site the building on and must be able to measure all boundaries.
