Tailor made garden room in Ditchling

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

Mr B was looking for a garden room for the corner of his garden to catch the morning sun. It would be backing on to an existing garage that has a 40degree roof pitch, and he though it would be nice to match that roof.  After a site visit and some consultation, the design was set.

The building was based on our Merlin garden room; we removed the right hand windows, and made special size right hand side windows to match the front. This included a large opening window for ventilation.

We started with getting and old tree root removed, then we laid a concrete base. This base was extended out the front for a further 1-meter; at the back we laid a weed membrane and stones.

The building was installed with in two days and included; lining and insulation to the 4 walls roof and floor, double-gazing,  tile  effect laminated floor, red diagonal tiles to the roof and finished with 2 coats of Sikkens Walnut.Once the building was finished our electrician ran a new sub main out to the building from the garage then installed lighting and sockets, the heating is produced from a freestanding unit.

To finish the room off we laid a small patio to the front of the building that matched the existing patios in the garden.

  • "I have had two Bakers sheds in my time in Burgess Hill. The first is 22 years old and still in terrific condition. The second 10 years old and I have just re sited this at my Daughters in Manchester, it was in such good condition. So, when I wanted to build a big lean-to shed alongside the house there was only one place to go!! I have not been disappointed. The shed has been built and lead flashed into the side of the building and it looks magnificent. Martin Baker and his team have done a wonderful job on it. It was delivered on time, built very well with a great base going down first and the attention to detail was superb. No request was too much trouble and everything was done with a smile. Martin was the epitome of customer service. I would recommend Bakers to anyone. Thanks for the shed."

  • "After many months of research into garden rooms, I found Bakers. Their buildings were lovely and I was excited about the possibility of choosing excactly what I wanted. My whole experience of Bakers was superb. They were patient with my needs, very helpful and the final result is gorgeous. The cost was very reasonable but still the building is of a very high quality. It was built quickly and efficiently and I am looking forward to treating many patients in my bright, sunny beautifully crafted garden room. a big thank you to Martin and his team"

  • "Bakers made my dream come true! I had an idea in my mind for a number of years for a garden building, a redundancy payment, Martin, Keith and their expert team made it come true. They interpreted my ideas offering knowledgeable advice and suggestions, bearing in mind the site of the building and came up with a design for a 20 X 10 foot bespoke garden room, complete with shingle roof which I am absolutely delighted with. The dedicated and friendly team of lads and electrician worked in some exceptionally bad weather conditions to complete the construction on schedule, for which I thank them so much. Bakers were able to offer the whole package, which was extremely important for me, including drawing up of plans, submission to the Council and complete project management, taking the stress out of things. In addition their after care service is exceptional, nothing is too much trouble and therefore I have no hesitation in recommending them."

  • "Mr Baker and the construction team paid attention to every single detail - from design to final fitting. Our insulated, double glazed and airy workroom is so much better than it would have been without their advice and expertise. A friend recommended Bakers because of the quality of their work, and our experience backs this up to the hilt."
