Depending on the type of cladding you choose as to how much maintenance is needed. The composite cladding is low maintenance and generally just requires a wash with water. Red Cedar is the top end cladding in our range. This wood is naturally rot-resistant and performs well untreated. As with Tanalised, the cedar will fade to a silvery grey finish. Cedar lends itself to a variety of treatments including painting, solid colour staining, natural or semi-transparent staining or water repellent preservatives and oils. Tanalised cladding is treated to prevent rotting and insect infestations. Once the treatment is dry, the timber will change from a green colour to a silvery grey. A water repellent can be applied to keep the building waterproof.
There is a wide range of options which are specific to individual circumstances. We can supply concrete, timber and ground screw options.

Our garden offices are made from structurally insulated panels which comprise a sandwich of expanded polystyrene (EPS) and Oriented Strand Boards (OSB) The EPS is 100mm thick and the OSB is 11mm, but applied twice giving an overall core width of 122mm.
The walls are then wrapped in a breathable membrane and batons are affixed to provide fixing spaces for your choice of external cladding. Contact us here for a list of cladding options.
We line our offices with beech plywood which eliminates the need for messy plaster and time-consuming redecoration.
Our buildings have a SIPs roof construction and are covered with a single piece EPDM rubber roofing, which lasts for years and years. Other roofing options are available including Sedum and Box profile. Feel free to get in touch here to discuss in more detail.
All of our doors and windows are glazed with double or triple glazed Argo gas-filled glass panes, which achieve U values of between 1 and 1.2. We can access most specifications of glazing through our supply chains.
Generally, we use either Western Red Cedar, Tanalised redwood or Composite cladding. All have unique properties which make them more or less suitable for specific applications. Through our supply chains, we can source all types of external cladding. Please get in touch for specific advice from our team.
Wood cladding is the traditional method that offers the most natural appearance but requires more maintenance. Composite cladding is a more modern system that requires little maintenance (wipe clean as required). Both offer stunning finishes and it is usually down to customer preference.
Durasid is a low maintenance cladding system made from a rigid foam core covered with a durable coextruded top coat. It has a decorative wood grain finish and is available in many colours.
Coastline cladding is a composite cladding system that performs well in all weather conditions. It is available in six colour options.

Structurally Insulated Panels (SIPs) and timber frame are both popular choices for building construction, but SIPs may be a better choice for certain projects for several reasons:
Insulation: SIPs have a higher insulation value than traditional timber frame construction, resulting in a more energy-efficient building.
Air tightness: SIPs create an airtight seal around the building, which helps to maintain a consistent temperature inside and reduce energy consumption.
Speed of construction: SIPs are prefabricated panels that can be quickly installed on site, reducing the construction time of a building.
Strength and stability: SIPs are engineered to provide a strong and stable structure, making them ideal for use in areas that experience heavy snow or high winds.
Weather resistance: SIPs are a more weather-resistant option than timber frame, reducing the risk of water damage and mold.
Carbon footprint: SIPs are made of foam insulation which is eco-friendly and sustainable.
Cost: SIPs have a lower cost of installation and maintenance, and they may have a lower life-cycle cost than traditional timber frame construction.
In summary, SIPs are more energy-efficient, airtight, faster to install, stronger, more stable, weather-resistant, eco-friendly and cost-effective than traditional timber frame construction. However, it’s important to consider the specifics of your project and consult with a professional to determine which option would be the best fit for your needs.
Structurally Insulated Panels (SIPs) roofing systems are considered to be better than cold roofing systems for several reasons:
Energy efficiency: SIPs have a higher insulation value than traditional cold roofing systems, resulting in a more energy-efficient building.
Durability: SIPs are made from a combination of foam insulation and structural paneling, which makes them more durable and resistant to moisture, mold, and pests.
Speed of construction: SIPs are prefabricated panels that can be quickly installed on site, reducing the construction time of a building.
Air tightness: SIPs create an airtight seal around the building, which helps to maintain a consistent temperature inside and reduce energy consumption.

Structurally Insulated Panels (SIPS) garden rooms are suitable for year-round use with proper design and construction. SIPS provide a high level of thermal insulation which helps to maintain a consistent temperature inside the garden room, making it comfortable to use throughout the year.
A Ventilated Perimeter Membrane (VPM) is an important component in a garden room for several reasons:
Moisture control: A VPM is designed to control the movement of moisture within a building envelope. It acts as a barrier to prevent moisture from penetrating the walls and causing damage to the structure and insulation.
Air tightness: A VPM helps to create an airtight seal around the building, which helps to maintain a consistent temperature inside and reduce energy consumption.
Insulation: A VPM can also contribute to the insulation of a garden room, by preventing heat loss or gain through the walls.
Durability: A VPM is made of durable materials that can withstand the elements, making it resistant to weathering, UV rays, and other environmental factors.
Design: A VPM can be integrated into the design of a garden room, making it a visually pleasing component of the building envelope.
Health: A VPM helps to improve the indoor air quality of the garden room, by preventing the growth of mold and other harmful microorganisms.
In summary, A VPM is an essential component in a garden room that helps to control moisture, improve air tightness, insulation, durability, design and indoor air quality of the space.
