Premium garden rooms · Essex
Garden rooms. Built around your life.
Designed and built across Essex. Offices, gyms, entertainment rooms and extra living space — one company from design to completion.
We don't build glorified sheds.
Properly finished garden rooms, built to become a genuine extension of how you use your home. We don’t expect to be the cheapest — our focus is the construction behind the finish, the quality of the installation, and one company accountable for all of it.

The Essex Home difference
One company. The complete build.
No separate groundworkers, electricians, plasterers or air-conditioning installers to find and chase. One team, one contract, one point of accountability.
Design
We start with your garden, your house and what the room is for — then design around all three.

Garden rooms
Designed around how you'll use it.
Not three fixed boxes in small, medium and large. Every room is designed around your property and what it’s for.
Garden Offices
Quiet, connected working space.
Garden Gyms
Built around equipment, flooring and climate.
Bars & Entertainment
Bars, media walls, lighting and sound.
Games Rooms
Pool tables, gaming set-ups, seating.
Garden Studios
Creative work, beauty businesses, hobbies.
Multi-Purpose Rooms
Designed to do more than one job well.
Bespoke garden rooms
Something completely individual.
Awkward plots, sloping gardens, rooms that need to do two jobs, or a design you’ve already sketched. Start with a conversation.
How they’re built
Substance, not “premium quality”.
Most people can judge a kitchen. Fewer can judge a wall build-up. Hover each layer to see what it does.
The finish you see — timber, composite or contemporary board, fixed to battens so it can move and dry.
The finish you see — timber, composite or contemporary board, fixed to battens so it can move and dry.
A gap behind the cladding that lets air circulate and moisture escape, so the structure never sits wet.
A breather membrane that keeps rain out while letting water vapour leave the wall.
The engineered timber frame that carries the roof and takes the fixings for everything else.
Fills the frame in walls, floor and roof. This is what makes the room usable in January and July.
A layer on the warm side that stops moisture from inside the room condensing within the wall.
Plasterboard fixed to the frame — a solid, straight wall ready for skim.
Plastered, painted, floored and lit — the standard of a room inside the house.
Air conditioning · Upgrade
Comfortable 365 days a year.
Efficient heating in winter, cooling in summer — designed and installed by Essex Home’s own F-Gas registered engineers. Not a panel heater and hope.
