Gloucestershire is a county of Cotswold stone throughout, plus Victorian Regency terraces in Cheltenham. That is exactly the kind of building stock a garden room has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
Every garden room we make starts with a site survey and a set of setting-out drawings, not a catalogue page. We measure the opening in Gloucestershire, check the walls for wind and the floor for fall, then cut a carcass that fits the room you actually have.
How we build it
Hardware is specified to the weight it is carrying, not to a price point. Soft-close runners are rated for the drawer load, hinges are adjustable in three planes, and sliding gear is sized so a full-height door still moves with one finger a decade later.
Finish and materials
Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

What happens next
Four steps, no surprises
Survey
A joiner visits, measures the opening, checks for level and plumb, and talks through how you want to use the space.
Drawings & quote
You get a setting-out drawing and a fixed written price. Nothing is ordered until you have approved both.
Workshop
Parts are machined, assembled and finished under cover while the site carries on with other trades.
Fit & handover
We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.
Straight answers
Garden Rooms & Timber Studios in Gloucestershire — common questions
Does it need building regulations approval?
Not if it is under 30 square metres, single storey, contains no sleeping accommodation and is more than one metre from a boundary or built from non-combustible material. Add a shower or a bed and the position changes.
What cladding lasts best?
Siberian larch or western red cedar on a ventilated batten cavity. Both silver gracefully without treatment. Thermowood is a good-value alternative with similar stability.
Will it add value to the house?
A properly built, insulated and powered garden room typically returns most of its cost and makes the house more sellable. A cheap timber shed with a plug socket does not.
What foundation does it need?
Either a reinforced concrete raft or a screw-pile and steel frame system. Screw piles suit sloping or tree-rooted gardens and go in within a day; a raft suits flat ground and heavier buildings.
How long does a bespoke job take from order to fitting?
Most fitted furniture runs four to eight weeks from approved drawings to fitting day. Kitchens, staircases and timber windows are longer at eight to fourteen weeks because the components are larger and the finishing schedule is longer. We give you a date band at quotation and confirm the fitting week once the drawings are signed off.
