Garden Studios in Devon | Garden Room & Home Office Builders

A well-built garden room is one of the simplest ways to add usable space. They’re perfect for working from home, exercise, hobbies, or just somewhere a bit quieter away from the main house.

What can a garden studio be used for?

Garden studios are flexible spaces, and we build them around how you actually plan to use them:

A quiet, separate workspace that keeps work and home life properly divided.
A practical space for exercise without needing to leave the house.
Studios for painting, music, crafts, gaming, or anything that needs a bit of room to spread out.
Some clients use them as relaxed seating areas, guest space, or a general escape from the main house. Yes, you can build a ‘gin room’ or ‘mini pub’ if you’d like to entertain there!

Garden room builders in Devon

We build garden studios across Mid Devon, from simple office spaces to more bespoke multi-use buildings.

A garden room should feel like a proper space, not just a shed with windows. We build our garden studios with full insulation, heating options, power, and proper finishes so they can be used comfortably all year round, not just in the summer. We also pay attention to how they sit within the garden, so they feel like a natural extension of the home.

Yes, even though they’re separate from the house, they still require proper foundations depending on the ground conditions and design.

We can install a variety of foundation types for garden rooms. One of our preferred methods is ground screws, which offer a quick and efficient solution with minimal disruption. We can also install slab or strip foundations where more appropriate. The best option will depend on the site conditions and the requirements of the build.

Yes, we can include electrics, lighting, heating, and internet depending on requirements.
Yes, your garden studio can be painted. We can also provide a full start-to-finish service, which is our preferred approach as it allows us to ensure the overall finish and quality meets our standards.

That said, we understand budget constraints and are happy to discuss options with you. You can choose to have us complete the full finish, or we can work with you to find a solution that suits your needs and budget.

Yes, it is possible to include a kitchen and/or bathroom in a garden room. However, adding features such as toilets, kitchens, and running water does introduce additional complexity, particularly around drainage runs, which can increase both cost and planning considerations. That said, it can be a great option if you’re looking to create a self-contained annexe for guests or extended use.

Once you introduce plumbing and running water, building regulations will apply, so Building Control will need to be involved. There are also associated costs with this process that should be factored into the overall project.

We’ll need to have a chat to discuss your requirements then we can give you a quote to consider.
