How to Build a Garden Room In 1 Day

Hi Roger as a British builder myself I love using the same roof system here in Thailand so easy to use and very strong product. As always I just love your videos no matter what your doing. Keep up the great work. 👍 🙏🙏🙏

Nice video Roger, I've been looking at these and they look like a good solution to what I'm after. What would you advise around getting electrics into the room and also finishing the internal walls?

What would make this an even better garden room is, add integral solar panels to the roof panels, with the addition of factory fitted led lighting, run cables in channels out to corresponding wall channels, add a small battery storage/inverter to one wall panel and Bob's your uncle you have an off grid garden room... So easy! If only!

I've just helped a friend put one of these up, this video proved invaluable thank you! here's some observations that may help anyone else looking to build one: The head beam is an absolute nightmare to get on, it took 3 of us about 2.5hrs using a process of clamping, bashing and running scrapers up the inside to stop it catching on the insulated panels. The rivet gun absolutely kills your hands, getting one with longer handles is a must in my opinion. When the roof panels seat together they look like the should fit flush but they actually stop about 1cm off each other leaving what I assume to be a ventilation gap running the whole length on the inside, this freaked me out for a bit thinking we had done something wrong but you can just about see them in the video. There is seemingly no way to fit the roof panels without getting them covered in bitumen while positioning them because you have to feed them backwards, then forwards. On the kit we fitted the header corners were mis-labelled but it was obvious how they went on due to the angles.

The supply of tea bags and Lion bars is an absolute genius idea ! It just shows the level of detail that has been taken into account.

Great modern build! I will look into these! You are the best Roger!

Great video Roger! Very helpful. Just taken delivery of the same model. Interesting to see they have taken note of what you said with the hand riveter as the one I received with the kit was type you recommended.

Nice video Roger. What’s your opinion on these garden rooms in regards to damp etc? Are they a good idea in the UK?

Author — James Nelson

Thanks for sharing Roger, looks like a great product, and expertly assembled.

You could batten and clad the outside in your timber of choice. Same with boarding inside if you wanted more homely finish. You're getting a good insulated envelope with minimal labour costs. You could just buy similar panels and roof only and attach to timber frame. Fair bit of work on the detailing, though.

I am very impressed with what you do. cool to be able to build that in one day.

Those roof panels look really interesting, save having to do joists and boarding etc, but I'll have to try work out if it's cheaper - they're very expensive!

Great garden room, brilliant video - thank you

What they don't tell you is that even if the concrete base is of level by the slightest amount, and off square by so little, it's a nightmare when it gets to the last third. I've been doing sectional timber buildings for 23yrs. And it still amazes me what some people expect there new buildings to site on. And all there doors and windows to close absolutely fine. I must admit it looks very, very well done 👏

brilliant video thank you! Hadn't seen modular rooms before

Another great Video, be nice if they did one that would fit a snooker table in. Looks a really neat solution

I've seen roof panels, but not wall panels. Great tutorial 💯❣️

My experience in a conservation area is that you ask if you need any permission and they tell you they don't know and that you should pay a fee to find out. Figure that one out! Job looks great Roger. 👍

Maybe a small vent would be a great add on to high on one wall. Easy to add later.
