A real Goldridge project in Darlington
We previously built a 4m by 2.4m garden room in Darlington with redwood shiplap cladding. That is a completed project, not a stock image or an invented local installation.
It is an example of earlier work, not a fixed specification or current advertised price. We discuss size, cladding, glazing, access and interior requirements for every new project before quoting.
Design around the space you have
A smaller garden needs a room that earns its footprint. Door position, natural light, privacy, access from the house and the amount of garden left outside can all matter more than a few extra square metres.
For offices we consider desk position and connectivity; for gyms it is equipment clearances and ventilation; and entertainment rooms need sensible planning for seating, lighting, sound and power.
- Bespoke room sizes and layouts
- Insulated year-round construction
- Choice of glazing and cladding
- Garden offices, gyms and studios
- Garden bars and cinema rooms
Understand what's included in the price
Two garden rooms of the same size can cost very different amounts depending on foundations, ground conditions, cladding, glazing, electrical installation, heating and internal fit-out. We would rather agree the scope clearly than promote an unrealistic headline figure.
The 3D designer can give you an indicative starting budget. For a proper quotation, send your postcode, rough size and the main things you want the room to include.
Planning and access checks
Many domestic garden rooms may be permitted development, but the answer depends on height, position, intended use and whether the property has relevant restrictions. We flag likely issues and advise checking the position formally when needed.
We also consider how materials reach the garden and where the power supply could run before promising a build approach.

Your postcode, intended use and approximate space are enough to start. We'll help work through the options and discuss a realistic next step, without asking you to produce drawings first.
