We were delighted to be approached by a client based in Debenham, Suffolk who were interested in building a Garden Room to use as an artists and architects studio.
Number 17 Ltd were able to provide a full turn key package from screw pile foundations, the steel frame building right through to a fully insulated building. The complete bespoke project took us approximately 1 month to complete and the outcome is fantastic…we hope you agree!
THE TASK
The brief was to create a building that housed a space big enough for use as an artists and architects studio for home working. A spacious room filled with natural light allows these clients a beautiful space to work, whilst being in the comfort of their own garden.
The client already had a patio space installed in this area, so no foundations were necessary. Our team were able to place our steel framed building straight onto this area, saving the client money. This Garden Room comes from our popular Thornlea range with a total building size of 4 x 3m. As always we used our light gauge steel, rolled off our very own FRAMECAD machine to construct this build. The software we use is able to take a detailed design drawing and create all the individual pieces of steel needed for erection. The steel frame for this build was erected in just 1 day!
The building was then fully insulated, plastered and decorated on the inside and finished with beautiful cedar wood cladding on the outside. A truly stunning choice and a customer favourite – our natural Western Red Cedar cladding is sourced from the Pacific Northwest from Northern California to Alaska and is PEFC certified. The customer chose grey UPVC windows and doors of various sizes for this build. A set of french doors at the front of the building allows the building to open onto the client's beautiful garden. All of our windows and doors meet building regulations specification standards of enhanced security performance.
We worked closely with the customer to ensure that the finish inside the building met all their requirements. All electrical work was completed by specialist tradesmen to ensure it was fully operational as quickly as possible. The client is now able to make the most of the stunning views over the Suffolk countryside from the comfort of their new space.
Finally, the building was finished with a EPDM rubber roofing system that comes with a 20 year warranty. Our roofing systems are BBA approved and with their life expectancy standing at an impressive 50 years, this is an incredibly durable and long-lasting product.
THE FEEDBACK
The client was delighted to share this feedback with us upon completion of their project;
“Number 17 produce a deceptively innovative approach to building external spaces. We appreciate the high level of professionalism applied by everyone involved in this company. The company was very straightforward. We knew what we were getting. They work so well together, and involve local craftsmen of the highest caliber. The result is a 3m x 4m artists' studio, for an architect and an artist, set within a well established garden. The end result will age and blend in well with the landscape of which it's now a part."
