Below we have an enquiry for a shower and toilet block log cabin for a camp site utility area. Complete with disabled toilet this is a cost effective way of settting up all the facilities you would need to get a comfortable campsite up and running.
Initial plan drawing provided by the customer. We can then produce preliminary drawings of the layout in 3D.
After initial rendering we can provide these drawings to the customer to help them visualise the final product and establish the finer details such as roof overhang, verandahs etc before submitting the drawings to the factory for final costings.

Bespoke Garden Offices - CAD Software
We are frequently dealing with customers looking for bespoke garden office designs. Quotations are available on receipt of a sketch. In some cases these sketches can be very basic but the more information the better. One free tool you may like to use is Google sketchup which is a very easy tool to grasp the basics of CAD.
However if your IT skills are not up to it we should be able to get an idea from a pencil sketch posted or scanned and emailed. Ideally you will show a side, end elevation and a plan or birds eye view. Then we just need to know the specification. 34, 44 or 68mm walls double glazing or single glazing.
As a guide for installation costs simply compare with a standard garden office kit with a similar footprint and you will get a good idea of the costs.
We will send you sketches prepared using Google sketch-up for you to review then these designs are passed onto the factory who then prepare formal CAD/CAM drawings for final approval by you before manufacturing begins.
The whole process typically takes 6 weeks to complete from sketch to manufacture and delivery

Garden Office Space
Popped back to Dunfermline yesterday to see a garden cabin we built in 2009.
Looking as good as ever the space is very welcome with two young children and a third on the way the space to escape is much appreciated!
A garden office room gives you that extra space to escape.

South West London garden office installation
Our latest garden office installation in South west London in Surbiton.
For a change we'll start with the finished product and work back towards the starting point.The log cabin is our very popular Cheltenham log cabin lowered to 2.5m ridge height for planning purposes.
This cabin is finished in Jacobean walnut produced by Sadolin one of our two recommended paint manufacturers the other being osmo wood stain & protector.
Both the floor and the ceiling are fitted with 50mm Celotex sheets. Celotex and Kingspan 50mm sheets are high quality insulation materials far superior to rockwool or the thin bubble foil sheets often called "insulation" by our competitors. There is no substitute for the best insulation available.
To be honest we do not get too hung up on the width of the double glazing units as we are dealing with garden buildings and the difference a bigger gap makes is minimal but as you can see the distance between the panes of glass in the Cheltenham log cabin is quite substantial.

The flooring used in this case is solid oak 18mm real wood flooring produced by Wickes.
Supplied with underfloor heating this garden office should be cosy throughout the year.
