Starting some time in the spring will be a Timber Clad Garden Room for use as an Office / Wellbeing Studio. Planning application is in due to the roof height being over the 2.5m Permitted Development height. Timber clad and fully insulated for efficient heating and weather resistance. And all year round use.
The garden room could be built under permitted development but it's not a shed but a fully functioning extension that is separate to your house therefore if planned and build correctly will add valve and more importantly function to your home. Therefore the decision was to build to the customers requimment and have full planning approved.

Planning - Designed around use and the available space/location in the garden. Drawings sketched and planning application submitted. This is a simple process to do yourself, especially if you use the online Planning Portal which guides you through this process and will send your application off to your local council for approval. There are not too many plans and documents required but the more complex your build the more you will need. There are plenty of great articles and blogs on-line to assist. The link below is to a fantastic site and videos by Ali Dymock who is a DIY builder but a real professional. 8 weeks wait now for approval!
