Questions
Do I need planning permission for a garden building?
Most garden buildings qualify as permitted development. We assist with council applications and provide required documentation including OS maps and CAD drawings.

Buildings under 15m² typically don't need approval. Between 15-30m² require non-combustible materials or 1m boundary clearance. We handle all compliance requirements.
How long does construction take?
Average build time is 4-6 weeks from groundwork commencement. Bespoke designs may require additional time depending on complexity and weather conditions.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept bank transfers and cheques. Full payment is required before commencement, with option for staged payments on larger projects.
Do you offer guarantees?
We provide a 20-year guarantee on Postsaver protected timber posts. Structural warranties available on completed buildings upon request.

Kevin and his team built us a fantastic home office. From my initial enquiry to completion, it was less than 4 weeks and the standard of work is amazing. The building has turned a forgotten corner of the garden into our new office. Completed ahead of schedule by Garden Buildings Cornwall and the standard of finish is amazing. Friendly, efficient, great prices. Cannot recommend them enough.

Kevin, Vicky and their very professional team provided us with a stunning log cabin. It serves as an excellent office space and meeting room. It has a cosy feel, and takes very little heating. Many of our customers comment on it. It is a pleasure to see a small business such as this being run with traditional values when it comes to customer care, we wish them the best of luck for the future. We wouldnt hesitate to purchase another cabin from Garden Buildings Cornwall and highly recommend their services.

Excellent. So quick and easy, 3 days build from start to finish. I needed a quiet and warm office space that could be used all year round. My new log cabin sits at the bottom of my garden and is the perfect quiet place to work. Thanks
