Garden Rooms field guide · Surrey
A practical Chobham guide to your next garden room
Garden Rooms in Chobham is most of what we do. Chobham is a designated conservation village with period brick boundary walls, gravel verges and several Grade II listed cottages along the high street. Off the centre, paddock-edge plots and equestrian properties dominate, with clay-on-sand ground that holds water in winter. For a garden room on a Chobham plot we usually plan around rear gardens with restricted side access where modular timber frame works best, so the spec we quote is shaped by what actually goes wrong on this side of Surrey.

The local brief behind the build
- Chobham 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 GU24 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a garden room - the south-facing positions where overhang and external shading become important 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.
