Garden Rooms
Silvermere homes
Your home has run out of space, but your garden hasn't.
For over 40 years, Silvermere Homes has been creating exceptional spaces across Surrey – and that includes the space beyond your back door.
Whether you need a dedicated home office, a private studio, a garden gym, or simply somewhere to escape, a bespoke garden room gives you the space your lifestyle demands without the disruption of a house extension.
Our garden rooms are fully insulated, built for year-round comfort, and designed to complement your outdoor space. From concept to completion, we handle everything: groundwork and foundations, structural build, electrical installation, and interior finishes.
The result? A stylish, practical space that feels separate from the main house but every bit as refined.

FAQ
1. Do I need planning permission for a garden room?
Most garden rooms fall under permitted development rights and don’t require planning permission – but there are exceptions. If your garden room exceeds certain size limits, sits too close to boundaries, or if your property is listed or in a conservation area, you may need approval. We’ll assess your specific situation during the initial consultation and handle any applications if needed.
2. How long does it take to build a garden room?
Typically 4-8 weeks from groundwork to handover, depending on size and specification. Weather can affect foundation work, but once we’re underway, the build progresses quickly. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during the quotation stage and keep you updated throughout.
3. Can I use my garden room all year round?
Absolutely. Our garden rooms are fully insulated with quality glazing and heating options, making them as comfortable in winter as they are in summer. We spec them to the same thermal standards as a house extension – this isn’t a glorified shed, it’s a proper year-round living space.
4. What’s included in the installation?
Everything. We handle groundwork and foundations, the structural build, roofing, windows and doors, electrical installation, insulation, plastering, and decoration. You get a finished, ready-to-use space – just add furniture. If you need specific additions like data cabling, extra power points, or particular flooring, we can include those too.
5. How much does a garden room cost?
Every project is different, so costs vary based on size, specification, and site conditions. As a guide, expect to invest from £25,000 for a basic home office up to £50,000+ for larger, more complex builds with premium finishes. We’ll provide a detailed, transparent quotation after understanding your requirements – no vague estimates, just clear pricing you can work with.
