Introduction

A lot of the garden rooms that we construct are mostly made of timber, this simply means that the structural timbers are made from timber, the flooring is often mostly made from timber, and also the outside is clad with timber as well, such as using oak, red cedar or we could use mahogany cladding.

Therefore, a large proportion of the whole garden building is often made using timber, however you don’t have to opt to have your garden room just made from timber, we can also build it out of bricks, you could have concrete foundations and we could build the walls out of concrete blocks as well. This can make the building very strong.

We are now going to explain some of the advantages, of having your entire garden room built from a concrete base, to have the exterior made from bricks, and to have block work built on the inside made from breeze blocks.

 

A stronger construction

Even though the timber that we use is very high-quality, all timber over time will gradually start to weaken simply because of wood rot.

This is one of the reasons why a lot of people opt to have their garden buildings made from concrete blocks, and to have bricks built on the exterior of the building. The reason for this is simply a stronger construction when compared to a wooden building.

High quality timber, which is suitable for use in a garden, and outdoors will be used, however even if the timber has been treated, with a wood preservative to make it last longer outdoors, it still simply won’t be a strong as a building which is made from brick exterior, and have a concrete base. This is a very strong construction, it’s more expensive to build, but if we build it will simply last longer when compared to a wooden summerhouse.

We use experienced bricklayers, who will simply mix the concrete correctly, and build the whole building so that it is very strong.

Therefore, a lot of people that simply want a stronger building, will opt to have a garden room that’s constructed from breeze blocks as well as quality bricks.

 

Better insulated

When we build a garden room that has bricks built on the outside, breeze blocks are built on the inside, and then panel insulation within the cavity is used, this can make a very strong building, but it will also be well insulated. Therefore, the entire building will be built in a similar way to how you’d build a new home, in that building will be very strong. This is another common reason so many people hire kings to build their garden rooms, because they are well built plus we can offer you many different options, such as building the entire building from timber, or perhaps from concrete blocks.

Do you still want the appearance of wood on the outside?

You might want to have breezeblock walls, yet on the outside of the building to have the building clad with a hardwood.

This way you will still have the appearance of wood on the outside of the building, but you will have strength of using breeze blocks, which will make the entire building very strong.

We can also add panel insulation into the walls for you, so that the building is correctly insulated.

 

The concrete base

You might have a garage at the side of your house, and it most probably has a concrete floor, the concrete floor might be over let’s say over 70 years old, yet it might be in perfect condition, the reason for that is that concrete is very strong, very durable, and it will simply last a long period of time if it is built correctly.

This is why a lot of people when they are having a garden room built, will want concrete base for their garden room, because it can provide a very solid foundation for the whole building, if it is built correctly.

 

Quality

Introduction

A lot of people are making the move to working from home, whether that’s to work for a company at home, or perhaps you are starting a brand-new business and need a place to work?

We believe that a garden room can offer a great place to work, within this article we are going to outline some of the benefits of owning a garden room that’s built by us.

 

No more commuting to work

Arguably, since covid the roads got slightly quieter, that’s with less people commuting to work, because even though the restrictions have lifted here in the United Kingdom, more of us continue to work from home.

This frees up our roads, and also helps people to save a lot of time, not to mention petrol! For example, a lot more people are now working from home and within garden offices, and therefore don’t need to daily commute to work, for example in the centre of Cardiff, via car.

Therefore, just think of all the money that you might save, on travel costs through working at home.

 

Natural light

For a lot of people, when they work, they like to work in a room that has natural sunlight, even if it’s the middle of winter, we will still have a period during the day normally where we can have sunlight coming into our homes or garden rooms. We can help you to design a garden room, so that you get as much light as you possibly can, this might mean adding a skylight, large windows and perhaps bi folding doors, which are the entire length of the front of the garden room.

For some people,  they may not like working under artificial light for the entire day, some people might even say that artificial light means meets their eyes feel strained.

So when you have a garden office, that’s built by us, you will have the opportunity to design the building the way you want. So perhaps there’s a part of your garden, that is south facing, where a lot of sunlight comes into that part of the garden during the day, well why not have a really large aluminium framed window placed on that side of the garden room, or perhaps even bi folding doors, and perhaps a skylight as well, so that you can let as much natural light into your garden office as possible.

 

Combined use

You might’ve got into the routine of travelling to work, and as soon as the working day has finished, you might like to drive over to the gym, and start your work out.

However, you might now be working from home, so it might be inconvenient during peak times to travel to the gym, especially if you live in a busy city, where you might be stuck in traffic for a long period of time?

So, why not have your garden office designed so that it can be used for two separate uses, one half could be used for work, and the other half could be used as your own gym.

Then simply when the working day is over, you could close your laptop, and simply open the door to your own gym and start working out.

Owning a garden room could therefore offer a place to work, and also a place to exercise.

 

 

Could you be even more productive?

Arguably, when you’re working from home, that’s within the house or even within an office full of people, there is often a lot of different distractions, which could distract you from getting your work completed. Perhaps it’s simply somebody talking about the weather, asking you for your opinion on the latest football match on the weekend, or somebody that’s just wants to chat about their recent holiday they’ve just come back from.

However, when you’re at work, you might just like to get your work done, get your tasks completed then enjoy the rest of your day you might not like to get distracted.

Therefore, when you own a garden office, because it’s separate from the main house, you may find this you can simply lock the door, and get on with your work, with less distractions.
