We build your completely bespoke studio to exacting modern standards,
with a focus on indoor air quality.

What Makes Us Different?
Where does your money go?

Instead, by operating as a lean and local business, we ensure your money is spent on the things that really matter – good design and quality materials.

Unlike traditional home improvement works, your garden room project will be as unobtrusive as possible, ensuring that your life can continue as normal in the process.

Will and his team of talented craftsmen bring their wisdom to the construction process and are all so friendly you might miss them when they leave! We want your project to be an enjoyable experience and leave you feeling happy to recommend us to friends and family.
Unique to you
We design and make our own bespoke joinery to ensure that your space is perfectly reflective of how you’ll get the best from it. We create this off-site in our workshop.
Sustainable materials & design
Always sustainable – we build with responsibly sourced materials. Will’s knowledge in Passivhaus construction drives his designs, endeavouring to make your garden studio the warmest, most efficient part of your property.
Full service
We undertake the whole construction process, including groundworks, electrics and plumbing.
Common FAQ's
Do I need planning permission?
In most cases, no. Under you Permitted Development Rights, you’re entitled to construct a garden room up to 2.5m in height within 2m of your garden boundary and up to 3m high if further from your boundary. Advice will be provided as part of your initial consultation and any necessary planning matters handled by Conker Construction for your peace of mind. Even if it doesn’t need planning, we can register your building with a Lawful Development Certificate, ensuring that if you sell your home, your garden room can be included in your sale without issue and therefore add value to your home.
How long will it take to build?
Due to the bespoke nature of Conker Construction, each project varies. However, as an example, for a 4m x 3m garden room, this would typically take 2 weeks to build with 1-2 weeks design beforehand, depending on the complexity of your vision. In other words, a fraction of the time it would take to build a traditional extension, loft conversion or outbuilding.
How much will it cost?
Again, due to the bespoke nature of our projects, this will vary every time. However, due to our lean business structure and use of local suppliers we ensure that we can remove any unnecessary costs and deliver exceptional value for money. Our clients are normally surprised by what we can achieve for their budget!
Can I have a kitchen or bathroom?
Of course you can! You can have a bar, a gym, a barbershop, playroom, yoga room, a whole home in your garden for your relatives, or just a peaceful space to escape them. We enjoy a challenge so let us know your aspirations and we’ll talk.
Can I have heating and lighting?
If you aren’t getting this by now….yes, of course! We design all our garden rooms with LED lighting throughout and can offer a range of heating options including underfloor heating and log burners. Let’s discuss during your consultation what it is you’d like and we will tell you how we can make that happen.
