What to consider for your Garden Office

Purpose & Usage: This needs to be suitable for year-round, multi-functional use. Prioritize a layout that separates your "work zone" from home life to improve mental focus.

Log Thickness & Insulation: At minimum, you should have 40-45mm logs with roof and floor insulation to ensure a professional environment that stays warm in winter and cool in summer.

Glazing & Light: Large windows or double glazing will help reduce eye strain and provide natural light for video calls and client meetings.

Internal Dimensions: You want to account for desk space, ergonomic seating, as well as storage. Ensure the "internal" space (not just external logs) fits all your furniture.

Base & Foundation: Requires a very stable, level base such as concrete to prevent desk vibrations and ensure long-term structural integrity.

Planning Permission: Keep the height under 2.5m if it’s near a boundary to avoid planning delays, as offices are often permanent fixtures. Learn more about planning permission here: A guide to planning permission for log cabins in the UK

Electrics & Connectivity: Consider how you will run power for computers and high-speed internet—vital for a "live" office environment. A separate internet connection/router may also be needed so not to slow the rest of the house down.

Get started today: What you need to know

There are several crucial points during your garden office journey that may slow you down, so be sure to account for the following to reduce any delays:

Planning Permission: Whilst nearly all garden offices are 2.5m and under in height, it is important to check your local council’s planning laws before purchasing.

Laying Your Base: A concrete base especially takes time to prepare before building, typically 3 to 7 days before you can build on it, and up to 28 days for concrete to be at its full strength.

Delivery: It is worth checking our deliveries map to see where you are and if you are eligible for FREE delivery. If you have concerns regarding access to your property for delivery, we advise getting in touch with our customer care team. See our deliveries page for full details.

Installation: Our garden buildings are designed with self-assembly in mind, though a bit of DIY experience is required. Watch our installation video to see what you think. We offer an installation service and work with a number of independent installers across the country should you need a hand.
