What Comes as Standard?
At Essex Garden Studios, we pride ourselves on crafting high-quality garden rooms that are as functional as they are beautiful. Every garden room we build is designed with your needs in mind and comes with a range of standard features that ensure your space is comfortable, durable, and ready to enjoy.
We start with a strong and reliable foundation tailored to your specific site, providing the essential base for your garden room. Next, we ensure that your new space is fully equipped with electricity, allowing you to power your lighting, heating, and devices with ease. Finally, our carefully selected windows and doors not only flood your room with natural light but also keep it secure and energy-efficient.
Whether you’re creating a cosy home office, a creative studio, or a peaceful retreat, these standard features are included in every build, ensuring your garden room is built to the highest standards from the ground up.
Foundations & Structure Tailored to your site
At Essex Garden Studios, we understand that every site is unique, which is why we tailor the foundations of your garden room to suit your specific needs. The type of foundation we use will depend on the access to your site and the condition of the ground.
For most sites, we typically use three 450mm wide by 300mm deep strip foundations. These sturdy foundations are topped with a steel-reinforced concrete subframe, which ensures that the entire weight of your garden room is evenly distributed.
If your site has limited access, don’t worry – we have a solution for that too. In these cases, we use the same concrete beams, but they are supported by piles or pads spaced approximately 1.2 metres apart. This method provides the same strong and stable foundation, perfectly adapted to the constraints of your site.
We’re also equipped to explore other foundation methods based on the specific conditions of your site, ensuring that your garden room is built on a solid and secure base.

Process
How does it Work?
The bespoke process starts with a consultation where we discuss the intended use, preferred layout, must-have features, design aesthetic, and budget.
Your garden room is then crafted using high-quality weather-resistant materials like timber and composite cladding.
Free Consultation
Reach out to us, and we'll connect with you to learn more about your new room project. Afterward, we can schedule your complimentary consultation.
Design & Planning
We will create a detailed drawing and provide a comprehensive quote. The drawing will visualise your room, including measurements, lighting, and heating positions.
Installation
The installation of your room can be finished in just two weeks, depending on its size. Throughout the installation, we ensure the surrounding grounds are meticulously protected.
Aftercare
Your room is considered complete only when you are fully satisfied. Every room includes a 10-year structural guarantee, and is built to last 30+ years.
