Garden Offices
A Garden Office is an efficient solution for those who work remotely or have their own business. Allowing you to separate your workplace from your home environment, or provide a dedicated premises for your business without additional rental costs, our offices allow you to create a specialised workspace where you have the privacy to focus.
Our range includes a variety of options, from structurally insulated panel rooms to log cabins. There are also a number of stylistic choices, with different cladding and roof options available. If you need a larger space for two or more people, we also have models with multiple rooms or split spaces. For any questions, or just to speak to a member of our experienced customer service team, please feel free to contact us using our dedicated contact form or by calling us on 01909 768840.
FAQs
Adding value to a property with an outdoor building such as a garden office is a common practice. A garden office can give you use now and be attractive to potential buyers in the future. Increase your floor space and create a more pleasing garden aesthetic. Plus, give yourself the ability to work from home as it fast becomes the norm. Some estimate that a quality garden office can increase your property's value by 5-15%.
Whether a garden building will need planning permission is based on its height, size, placement and what it'll be used for.
The maximum height of a garden office with a dual-pitched roof is allowed to be 4 metres. For any other roof type, it's 3 metres. Anything over this and you'll need planning permission. If you have any concerns, we recommend contacting your local planning authority beforehand.
If you're running a business from your office then you may well need other permissions. The same goes for if you intend to use it as a permanent residential space. Again, it's better to be safe than sorry. This is why we recommend getting in touch with your local planning authority. Or, head over to our blog for more information on garden office planning permission.
Of course. If your garden room isn't close enough to your house to connect to the mains water supply, it may be more expensive though. But installing a bathroom in your garden office will be a fairly simple task for a trained plumber. Make sure that you adhere to Building Regulation standards.
An office counts as a place from which your business operates, rather than an item of equipment. Because of this, no costs incurred from the purchase or construction of the office itself can be tax deducted from business profits. But items within your garden office, like furniture and insulation, can be.
A lot of us have transitioned to working from home (WFH) recently. So freelancers, small business owners, and employees are thinking about garden offices. They offer many solutions including:
- Being cheaper than renting office space
- Reducing time and money spent on commutes
- Encouraging productivity by having a professional space outside the home
So why not have a look at our range of garden home office buildings to see if it's the right fit for you?

There are a few ways to provide a broadband Wi-Fi signal to your garden office:
- Position your garden building close enough to your house that your home Wi-Fi signal will carry. However, this will depend upon where exactly the router is positioned inside your home, and it might not provide a good enough signal after passing through several walls.
- Get a Wi-Fi extension device, connect it to your router, and plug it in inside your garden office.
- Ask your broadband provider about installing a broadband cable to your garden office.
Options 2 and 3 will require your garden office to have an electricity supply (although, if you are planning to use a computer in it, you probably already considered this). For more, see our post on installing utilities in your garden room and how to install Wi-Fi in your garden office.
To turn your BillyOh garden building into a functioning home office consider:
- Connecting a water supply
- Installing fibreoptic cabling or a router that reaches your house’s WiFi
- Sprucing up the decor with office supplies and a good desk
Whether you plan to use your garden room as a traditional computer office, a meeting room, or even a photography studio, a lot of work will go into creating the ideal garden workspace. Check out our guide to designing your garden office to make sure it is suited to the work you plan to do.
We have a series of guides for insulating garden buildings. Whether yours is made from wood or metal, the principles for insulating them are the same across the board, so you can make use of our guides to insulating a shed or insulating a summerhouse. You will also want to consider damp proofing your garden office for extra protection.
An office kit could save you time and money. While we don’t offer installation, all our buildings are designed to be simple to build.

What Types of Outdoor Office are Available?
Insulated Garden Offices
If you want to improve your life - work closer to home. An office space is best served by an insulated garden room which offers a comfortable interior all year round. Having an outdoor workspace, like one of our SIP buildings, has a range of benefits. Designed by our team for remote workers, they have the specs necessary for year-round use, with a high level of thermal insulation. This can help you save on energy costs, while also saving money on commuting.
Garden Office Pods
If you've been looking for a garden pod of your own then one of these garden rooms will fit the bill. Providing a comfortable office space or studio in the comfort of your own garden, our insulated garden rooms are both a beautiful and affordable solution to adding extra space to your home. With modern designs, in-built insulation, and great cladding options, our outdoor pods are one-of-a-kind!
A Variety of Outdoor Office Styles
We build our quality offices with lasting style in mind, so that your building continues to improve the look and aesthetic of your garden. When it comes to style, there are a few different options. Choose the popular log cabin aesthetic or opt instead for the more traditional look of a garden summer house.
What are the Advantages of Our Garden Offices?
Durable and long-lasting garden rooms
Our skilled craftspeople manufacture each of our wooden garden rooms. Our office models feature superior strength which prepares them to withstand the UK's most extreme weather conditions using strong tongue and groove cladding. With this interlocking timber used from the base to the cladding and roof, you can be safe in the knowledge that your building is designed to last.
A Customisable Garden Office Space
We design our buildings to provide great flexibility of use. Our buildings can act as a home studio for creatives, as 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 so you can approach your passions with the attention and professionalism they deserve.
Outside of different usage, there are also unlimited ways to decorate your garden room, thanks to the versatility of the wooden construction. Painting and wall decorations are just the start.
Are you self-employed? Do you run a business from home, or have a creative hobby that's taking up too much room in your house? Then a home office might be the solution for you. To set up an office space with all the amenities of one in your house, you'll need to install electricity and utilities as well as add a WiFi connection.
A Wide Range Of Garden Room Options
When selecting from our wide range of garden rooms, you'll have plenty of options to choose from. This includes the size of your modern office. There are also options for different glazing, flooring and cladding. This gives you the choice of traditional and contemporary styles, as well as opening up different functionalities - for the DIYers, you could combine your office space with a workshop.
Insulated Designs
We also have a selection of fully insulated buildings. These models come with a number of premium features, including efficient insulation materials, double-glazed windows, an allowance for an electrical connection, and loads of internal space for your office or studio. You'll also find wide-opening UPVc doors and a contemporary flat roof.
These energy-efficient insulated garden buildings are the perfect choice if you're seeking extra space and a modern design.
Premium Structural Insulation
We also have premium SIP (structurally-insulated-panels) buildings in our range. These buildings, linked above, use layered panels that sandwich in-filled insulation, which results in great thermal containment. This means you can use the room year-round with minimal heating required, and they have just as much customisation potential as any other wooden building.
Cheap Garden Office Pod Options
Our garden office pods start from less than £2,000, and some can be under £1,000 during special offers. This makes our range a great choice for a work investment on a budget.
Which Model Should You Choose?
This depends on the type, size and features of the office you want to create. If you want a simple, single-room office for use by one person then our Fraya cabin is the ideal choice. The interior is versatile and it has a fresh, modern look with large windows for a bright interior. If you opt for a larger model, the building can also become multi-functional.
If you’re looking for something more formal, whether that’s to launch your own business or to act as an office space for more than one person, we’d recommend the Kent. The Kent is designed for use as a dedicated office space, with a partition wall that creates separate work and meeting spaces.
If you’re looking for a building that can serve as business premises, the Fraya Max is available in a selection of giant sizes that you can fit out for use by several people at once - perfect for a very small business.
Adding insulation is a must for any of these if you plan to use them throughout the year.
What’s Our Guarantee?
To give you the best quality, our range of designs come with our 10-year guarantee. This provides protection against rot, decay, and insect infestation, making sure you have a building to rely on. Plus, a lot of our garden offices are available as pressure-treated models - a process which injects chemical preservatives into the wood. These have an extended guarantee of 15 years for over a decade of protection!
