Garden Rooms field guide · Surrey

A practical Mayford guide to your next garden room

Garden Rooms in Mayford is most of what we do. Mayford is a small village strip along the A320 with period cottages around the green and 1960s-80s detached estates on Smarts Heath Rd. The London clay base is shallow and prone to seasonal movement, so we treat shrink-swell as the default risk. For a garden room on a Mayford 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

  • Mayford 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 GU22 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.
