The Affordable Convenience of a Garden Room Extension
Moving homes in the UK costs on average £11,777 – a hefty expense that has many homeowners opting for extensions instead. But between traditional home extensions and garden rooms, which offers the better solution?

Here are why you should choose a bespoke garden room from Warwick Buildings over a traditional home extension:
Versatility of Use
Garden rooms are built to be as adaptable as possible. As separate entities from your main house, they are much freer in terms of interior style and utility. A standard extension tends to work better as a way to expand your kitchen or dining space, but a garden room can be transformed quickly and easily into anything from a home office to a fitness studio.
Not only can you make as much noise in them as you like, due to their separation from the main house, but your garden room can also work especially well as a private space, such as a reading nook or additional living space – a place to find rest and retreat from the hustle and bustle of the everyday. And with the high-quality five-layer construction of our builds, and the insulation that comes with them as standard, you can use your garden room any time of year.

No Planning Permission
Any renovation project that directly impacts the structure of your home will require planning permission, as well as meet various kinds of building regulations. One of the benefits of most garden rooms* is that they require no planning permission to be built – as long as your design falls below 2.5 metres in height and cannot be lived in as a self-contained unit, then you can avoid the hassle of applying for permission pre-project.
*Certain garden rooms will require planning permission, for example, if they are taller than 2.5 metres or include plumbing of any kind. Garden rooms can be wired with electrics and still be considered as permitted development, however.

Fewer Running Costs
Traditional extensions will generally add a lot more to your monthly bills, simply because they are part of your home – meaning more space to heat or cool and much more regular use. Garden rooms come in much cheaper at the end of each month thanks to their slight separation from your home and the simple fact they are used less.
Garden rooms are fantastic for fulfilling a number of unique needs, from garden bars for entertaining guests, gyms for everyday fitness, and secluded spaces for working from home – but when they are no longer being used for their intended purpose, they cost you nothing at all to maintain.
As an added bonus, as we have touched on above, all of our garden room designs come with five layers of walling, from high-quality Scandinavian redwood cladding and vapour barriers to breathable internal linings and insulation. This construction will allow you to use your garden room whenever you please, rain or shine – and you can keep the radiator dial low.

Faster Construction Timescale
Embarking on a home extension project can come with its fair share of challenges. From unexpected delays and exceeding budgets to the complexities of flooring, walls, lighting, electricity, and plumbing. The process can be time-consuming and disruptive. Garden rooms offer a much less complex solution, on a much quicker deadline. Our builds also minimise disruption to your home, requiring zero demolition.
With Warwick Buildings you can let go of prolonged construction periods and the stress of planning approvals, and get back to enjoying your new expansion and your new and improved garden area.

Will a Garden Room Still Add Value to Your Home?
Adding an extra room to your home through a traditional extension can indeed increase its market value, particularly with the inclusion of additional bedrooms and reception areas. However, did you know that a garden room can also enhance the value of your property? Most garden rooms are estimated to add between 5% and 15% to your home’s value.
Yet, the value of a garden room extends far beyond monetary considerations. It offers a haven where you can indulge in your passions, create cherished memories with your family, and entertain guests at any time.
