Garden Rooms field guide · Surrey

A practical Egham guide to your next garden room

Garden Rooms in Egham is most of what we do. Egham is shaped by Royal Holloway and the Thames floodplain, with Victorian terraces near the station, 1930s detached homes on Englefield Green and newer apartments by the river. Flood-zone designation drives SUDS and permeable specs on any front-garden conversion here. For a garden room on a Egham plot we usually plan around high water table plots where screw-pile foundations beat traditional concrete slabs, so the spec we quote is shaped by what actually goes wrong on this side of Surrey.

The local brief behind the build

  • Egham 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 TW20 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a garden room - the Article 4 / conservation rules that affect permitted development on a small number of streets 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.

Turn the idea into a measured scope
