This little studio ticks all the boxes for style and elegance while providing the perfect space for my radio equipment. The cedar oak cladding looks incredible and knowing it will never fade or need maintenance is brilliant.
The air conditioning means I can use it year-round, and the French doors let in so much natural light. Everything was included in the package, which made the whole process so straightforward.
Essex Garden Studios understood exactly what I needed and delivered a space that’s exceeded my expectations!

Essex Garden Rooms
Amateur Radio Studio in Chelmsford
This project proves that sometimes the most straightforward designs create the most effective spaces. Our client needed a dedicated area for their amateur radio equipment, and we delivered exactly what they asked for.
Wrapped in our premium cedar oak composite cladding with smart anthracite detailing, this studio combines style with zero maintenance requirements. The cladding will never fade, never need treating, and will look as good in ten years as it does today.
The French doors flood the interior with natural light, creating a bright and welcoming workspace that’s perfect for long hours operating radio equipment. Inside, luxury vinyl click flooring provides both comfort and durability.
To ensure year-round comfort, we installed both an air conditioning unit with heating function and a state-of-the-art electric radiator. This means our client can enjoy their hobby in perfect temperatures, whether it’s the height of summer or the depths of winter.
As with all our builds, this garden room came as a complete package. The foundations, base work, full insulation, and electrical installation were all included, making the process smooth and hassle-free from start to finish.

Posted on Wendy C Chris has been brilliant, patient, efficient and professional at all stages. I have a perfect studio in my garden which is my sewing room. He gave me a start date, told me how long he would be and delivered, I couldn’t have asked for more. I absolutely love the end product, finished to a high standard. All I can say is highly recommended, and thanks !Posted on Laetitia Pancrazi Wonderful, efficient, beautiful! Chris was amazing. He was helpful from the beginning of the process, helping us choose the right option for our home. He was very responsive (which is so rare in this industry) and kept things simple. He communicated any changes quickly allowing us to progress quickly. The project was completed in a month (despite the cold and the rain) and our garden room is simply beautiful. We can't wait to use it now and it certainly has increased the value of our property. I highly highly recommend working with Chris and his team (Erin was fantastic!). You are guaranteed a smooth experience with a beautiful end product of very high quality.Posted on Lou81 E We are so pleased with our garden room. It has given us a defined work space, an extra living space in the summer and a large amount of much needed storage. Chris and his team did a great job, listened to what we needed and gave great advice, we would highly recommend!Posted on Neil Ashby It was a great experience from start to finish. The design was bespoke and attached to our garage. We had good advice on how to spec the building in a way that met our needs and balanced cost and practicality. The build went well and complexities arising during the build were discussed and resolved. There was transparency on any impact on costs. Overall, we were very pleased with the whole process and delighted with the end result.Posted on James Kew I contacted Chris about this time last year. He attended promptly and gave a reasonable quote. Accepted and the garden studio was built in time for the sunshine. Had a great summer making use of our new garden room. Serving a dual purpose of both convenient work space and garden room for the benefit family, it has proven to be a valuable addition to the house. Tidy, friendly and considerate during build. Highly recommend.Posted on Martin Harris Fantastic build quality, whole team were brilliant and courteous. Built in good time and we now have a fantastic bar/studio. Would have no hesitation in recommending this company.Posted on Andras Zoltan If you want a studio built, then you should get Essex Garden Studios to build it. Everything was easy from start to finish (I basically had to do nothing!), the process was quicker than I expected it to be and - more importantly - the result was exactly how I imagined it would look. You cannot go wrong with these guys.Posted on James M Great experience from start to finish. Extremely happy with the end result and competitive price. Chris & team were fantastic, worked quickly and efficiently and were extremely helpful with the planning before hand. Would happily recommend Essex Garden Studios to anyone looking for external studio/office/social space.Posted on Michael Lambe I would highly recommend Essex Garden Studios. The quality of the product is incredibly high with the final outcome certainly closer to an extension than a garden room, and something we will be able to use all year round. Clad in beautiful looking Cedar, Chris worked with us to design the room into the corner of our garden, working around some existing trees and hedges to maximise use of space . Chris was on-site promptly ever day and got the build completed in line with schedule. With Chris and James being so polite and hard working, it made the build time fly by with minimal disruption.Posted on Mark Phillips Fantastic quality build of our cedar clad garden room from Chris and James and a pleasure to work with. Kept me informed of process throughout and everything was on time despite some unexpected issues that emerged during the build which they dealt with v well. Finish is excellent, top quality cedar cladding. Highly recommended.
