Garden Office Pod FAQs

A fully insulated garden office pod in the UK typically costs £3,000 to £15,000 supplied, depending on size, roof style and glazing. Our range starts under £3,000 for a 2.5m x 2.0m insulated pod and runs to around £12,000 for a 5m x 3m garden room. Professional installation is usually £900-£2,500 on top, and groundworks for a base £400-£1,500. See the full cost breakdown.

In most cases no - a garden office is usually classed as permitted development if it is single storey, under 2.5m high within 2m of a boundary (or under 3m / 4m apex elsewhere), used for purposes incidental to the house, and covers no more than 50% of the garden. Listed buildings, conservation areas, flats and "designated land" have extra rules. Read the planning guide.

Yes. Every pod has insulation in the walls, floor and roof (45-70mm, or acoustic double-skin on soundproof models), double-glazed units and a thermally efficient door. With a 1-2kW electric heater or panel heater they stay comfortable through a British winter.

Lead time is typically 6-12 weeks from order depending on the model and season. Delivery to UK mainland is free with a booked slot. Professional installation on a prepared base usually takes 1-2 working days.

A level concrete slab, paving, or a ground-screw / plinth foundation system. The base should match the pod footprint and be within roughly 10-15mm of level. We can arrange groundworks or supply a foundation kit.

Yes - 0% and low-rate finance from 12 to 120 months is available at checkout, subject to status, with a soft-search application that does not affect your credit score.

A pent roof slopes one way and keeps the overall height low, which helps with permitted development near a boundary. An apex (or reverse-apex) roof pitches two ways, giving a vaulted ceiling inside and a more house-like look.

We deliver free to the UK mainland. The Scottish Highlands, islands and Northern Ireland may carry a delivery surcharge - we confirm this before you pay.

The pods are supplied as garden offices / rooms for use incidental to the main house. Sleeping accommodation or letting usually needs building regulations approval and possibly planning permission - talk to us first.

Up to a 15-year anti-rot timber guarantee, a 10-year structural warranty, and a 2-year guarantee on glazing, doors and hardware.

Most pods are delivered as a pre-cut kit or panelised sections and assembled on site: base check, floor, insulated wall panels, roof and membrane, cladding, glazing and door, then internal lining and optional electrics. See the full build process.

We focus on insulated garden offices and rooms for year-round working, not curved glamping capsules. If you want a warm, quiet space you can work in every day, an insulated pod is the better buy.
