Bramley Garden Rooms: a local specification for GU5 properties
Garden Rooms in Bramley is most of what we do. Bramley is a linear village along the A281 with Victorian terraces near the old station, 1930s detached homes on Snowdenham Lane and newer infill towards Birtley. Weald clay and a high water table near the Wey demand careful drainage on every scope. For a garden room on a Bramley plot we usually plan around Article 4 / conservation rules that affect permitted development on a small number of streets, so the spec we quote is shaped by what actually goes wrong on this side of Surrey.

What changes the specification here
- Bramley is inside our 30-mile core area, so site visits are arranged within a week and project supervision is daily, not weekly.
- We've spent enough time on GU5 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a garden room - the high water table plots where screw-pile foundations beat traditional concrete slabs that gets missed when a national firm quotes from a desk.
- Quotes are written, fixed and broken down by stage, with the same crew on site from day one through to clean-down.
