Common Questions
Why a Garden Gym Room?
Will I need planning permission for a garden room?
When it comes to installing a bespoke garden room, there are several legal and regulatory requirements to consider, and one of the most important is planning permission. Whether you need planning permission for your garden room depends on a variety of factors, including the size of the building, its location, and its intended use.
At Into The Garden Room, our team of experts has extensive experience in navigating the planning permission process. We will work with you to assess your needs and help determine whether or not you need planning permission for your garden room.
In general, planning permission is not required for small, single-story garden rooms that are not intended for permanent habitation and are located within the boundaries of your property. However, if your garden room is larger, taller, or closer to a boundary, planning permission may be required.
For example, the overall size of the garden room must be no larger than 10m x 10m, and the eaves must be no higher than 2.5 metres. If you live in a conservation area, you would need to build behind the rear elevation of your house for the garden room to fall under permitted development.
If planning permission is necessary, our team will guide you through the application process, providing all the information you need to make an informed decision. We’ll make sure the process is as straightforward and stress-free as possible, so you can focus on getting the garden room of your dreams.

Do you offer an electrical connection from my house to my garden room?
Yes, we can provide a complete electrical connection from your house to your garden room as an added service. This option is available at an additional cost, which will be confirmed during your design consultation. The electrical connection will ensure that your garden room has a reliable power source and can support any electrical devices or appliances that you plan to use.
If you prefer, you are also welcome to arrange for your own electrician to handle the electrical connection. This is a common choice for people who have a preferred electrician or who want to take a more hands-on approach to the project.
No matter which option you choose, it is important to ensure that the electrical connection is properly installed and meets all safety standards. This will ensure that your garden room is a safe and comfortable space to use.
Can I use my garden room all year round?
Yes, they’re so well insulated that they can be used throughout the year. All our garden rooms benefit from the thermal expertise we use to build our houses, and also come with a heater for those rare snowy days!
Whats a good size for a garden gym?
Garden gyms can be any size you want, but they must be under 10m x 10m if you don’t want to apply for planning permission. However, they don’t have to be this large. In general, a garden gym of 3m x 3m is about the smallest you will probably want it to be. 5m x 4m is probably more common, but it depends on how you will use it and the size of equipment you want it to keep inside.
