Made by us, loved by you. Take a look at some of our top picks.
Garden Buildings Direct has more than just traditional garden sheds on offer. We understand that our customers want more out of garden buildings than just storage. A quality garden room is an extension of your house, serving all the functions that any interior room would. It is especially important now - considering how we’re all spending a lot more time at home - to ask how you can make the most of your outdoor space.
Our buildings are manufactured by skilled craftsmen with the outstanding experience needed to build robust and superior-strength shed products to withstand the UK’s most extreme weather conditions. Our garden offices are designed with structural strength in mind, from the base to the cladding, so you can be safe in the knowledge your building will last.
All of our wooden garden rooms are built to the highest standards of quality to make sure you have a comfortable space for years to come. Each is built with solid timber, fitted together with strong, weather-resistant tongue and groove cladding to make sure your garden office withstands the worst the British weather can throw at it. You also have the option for pressure treated timber, which will extend the lifespan of your building and reduce the need for wood treatments.
We believe a garden office is whatever you make it, which is why we provide a solid blank slate for you to decorate with your preferences. A quality garden room can act as a home studio for creatives, an office space for freelancing professionals, or a room to entertain guests. Moving your office space outside your home allows you to better separate your work and home life and approach your passions with the attention and professionalism they deserve.
Beyond the function of the garden room as an office or studio space, garden rooms offer the everyday benefit of expanding your storage space. While some of our wooden and metal sheds are built with storage in mind, a garden room can offer space to store garden furniture or tools for the winter and still have enough space for you to pursue your passions.
If you’re self-employed or have a creative hobby that’s taking up too much room in your house, a garden office might just be the solution for you. Garden Buildings Direct is an industry leader in bespoke designed garden offices and other outdoor rooms. Our stylish garden offices offer you the space and the privacy to continue your work or explore your passions in comfort all year round.
When selecting your garden room, you’ll have a range of options to choose from to make it ideally suited to your needs. These range from windows, floors and doors in different styles, and wall and window thicknesses. These options allow you to set up your office to be warm and comfortable all year round, or bright and breezy during summer usage.
When crafting our wooden garden shed designs, we always take into consideration our customers’ differing tastes and styles. For that reason, we offer both traditional apex shed roof designs and more contemporary pent roofs, as well as other unique design options.
Before making your decision, there are a few things to bear in mind. Firstly, you may need planning permission to construct an outbuilding on your property. This will depend on local councils and neighbourhood policies, as well as the response of your immediate neighbours. Investigate your planning permission issues with the relevant authorities, or speak to a member of our customer team if you’d like some guidance.
Secondly, think about how much space you have to dedicate to the garden room. Bear in mind not only how much space you need for the building itself, but also for the concrete base it must be constructed on. Think also about access points to your garden from the road, and whether there is anything that could prevent large boxes and building supplies being delivered.
Another thing to consider is what you want to use your garden room for. As mentioned previously, a garden office is a versatile outdoor building which can suit a variety of needs, but depending on what you’ll be doing in the room you may need to consider different infrastructure options. For example, will you require a power source in your garden office? Will it require soundproofing or insulation? At what times of day do you intend to be working in the office, and therefore which direction should your door or windows be facing?
Once you’ve asked yourselves these questions and settled on a building, we can have your product delivered directly to your home in no time at all. We offer bespoke delivery options across mainland UK, free of charge to most postcodes. Speak to a member of our customer service team about organising delivery to your home.

A rising number of small businesses and employees are based at home. This is seen by many as an increasingly attractive and viable option for a number of reasons.
A home office can either take the form of a pre-existing room in your house, or you could take the plunge and invest in an increasingly popular garden office!
Adding value to a property with an outdoor building such as a garden office is becoming an increasingly common practise. While we wouldn’t recommend you purchase a garden office or similar garden building with the main purpose of increasing your property’s value, there’s no denying that doing so will raise the value of your property by a fairly significant degree.
Investing in a garden office will make your property more attractive to potential buyers in the future, due to an increase in floor space, a more pleasing garden aesthetic and the obvious notion that it will greatly appeal to fellow business owners.
Whether or not planning permission is required for a garden building is determined by its height and what it’ll be used for.
The maximum height of a garden office varies between 2.5-4 metres, dependent on the type of roof and how far it’s situated from your house boundary. We strongly recommend contacting your local planning authority for any building which doesn’t measure below 2.5 metres in height.
In terms of use, if you’re running a full time business from your garden office then you may well need planning permission, irrespective of height. Again, it’s better to be safe than sorry, which is why we recommend getting in touch with your local planning authority before purchasing a garden office.
Though this can become a costly process - especially if your garden room isn’t situated close enough to your house to connect a toilet system from the mains water supply - installing a bathroom in your garden office can be a relatively simple task for a trained plumber. During this undertaking, it is critical to ensure that Building Regulation standards are properly adhered to.
If your garden building is somewhere that you and/or guests plan to occasionally sleep in, then this is no problem at all and won’t require planning permission of any sort. However, if you intend to regularly sleep in it, effectively making your garden building into self-contained accommodation, then you must apply for planning permission and meet building regulations.
Despite a garden office being a movable item, it counts as a structure from which your business operates, as opposed to an item of equipment. Because of this, no costs incurred from construction or the purchase price of the office itself can be tax deducted from business profits.
Though, generally speaking, items within your garden office, such as furniture and thermal insulation, can be tax deducted.
