Planning

Thinking of adding a charming garden room to your outdoor space?

In the UK, most Garden Room projects are covered by Permitted Development rights, which means no fuss with planning permission for builds that follow the rules.

Our garden rooms are tailor-made to fit right under the 2.5 meter height limit, so you won’t have to worry about overshadowing your neighbor's prize petunias. They’re designed to be the perfect backyard complement, taking up no more than half your garden. Plus, if they’re under 15 square meters, you can snuggle them right up to the garden boundary fence.

If the internal floor area of the building is between 15 square metres and 30 square metres, you will not normally be required to apply for building regulations approval, provided that the building contains no sleeping accommodation. Additionally, it should be either at least one metre from any boundary or constructed substantially of non-combustible materials.

To keep everything peachy with planning, we’ve got you covered with advice, but remember, the nitty-gritty of permissions sits with you. Just to be super sure, it's worth giving your local planning office a quick call, especially if your home is an extra special piece of heritage or nestled in a stunning conservation area.

Don't worry though, we're here to help guide you to your dream Garden Room without stepping on any regulatory toes!
