Garden rooms & lifestyle spaces

Give yourself space to think, move, make or simply breathe

A warm, light-filled room only a few steps from home — designed around the part of your life that deserves more space.

Built around daily life

A room that changes the rhythm of the whole house

No commute across town. No exercise equipment taking over the spare bedroom. No need to choose between concentration and family life. We begin with the feeling you want from the room, then resolve furniture, daylight, privacy, equipment, services and storage around it.

01

Home offices & studios

Calm, naturally lit working spaces with integrated power, heating and storage planning.

02

Gyms & wellness rooms

Layouts developed around equipment, ventilation, floor performance and everyday access.

03

Entertainment & leisure

Snooker rooms, bars, cinema spaces and garden lounges designed around real use.

04

Flexible guest space

Multi-purpose rooms with the appropriate planning and technical route considered from the outset.

Turnkey options

From an insulated shell to a finished interior

Depending on the project, Lodrix can provide the structural shell and external envelope, supply and installation, or a turnkey route including internal finishes, lighting, heating and services coordination.

Interior design support and furniture sourcing can be included where helpful, giving the room a coherent finish without unnecessary retail mark-ups.

Before you choose a builder

Compare the build, not just the photograph

Two rooms can look similar online and perform very differently through a British winter. A useful quotation should make the following points easy to understand.

Walls, roof and floor

The complete proposed build-up, insulation approach and internal and external finishes.

Foundation system

What is suitable for the site, who prepares it and how levels and drainage are handled.

Glazing and ventilation

Frame material, glass specification, opening arrangement, background ventilation and overheating strategy.

Heating and electrics

The number and location of sockets, lighting, heating, data and the route back to the main supply.

What is excluded

Decoration, floor finish, utility runs, landscaping, access equipment and abnormal site works should be explicit.

Guarantee and handover

Structural coverage, individual product warranties, certificates and the aftercare contact route.

Pricing guidance

Design

Size, roof form, glazing, cladding, layout and interior are developed together.

03

Questions clients ask

Garden room questions, answered

Clear early answers help define the right design, approval route and budget before detailed work begins.

01Can a Lodrix garden room be used all year?

Yes. Our garden rooms are developed as fully insulated spaces, with the glazing, heating, ventilation and internal finish considered around the intended use. The final specification is confirmed for each project.

02Do I need planning permission?

Many garden rooms can fall within permitted development, but height, position, land designation, listed status and the intended use can change the position. We review the likely route early and recommend formal planning advice where appropriate.

03How much does a bespoke garden room cost?

Typical Lodrix projects begin from £22,500 including VAT. Our current guidance starts from £1,895/m² including VAT; size, glazing, foundations, services, access and interior fit-out determine the final quotation.

04What can be included in a turnkey project?

Subject to the agreed scope, this can include the insulated building envelope, doors and windows, internal finishes, electrics, lighting, heating and coordination of services. Foundations, drainage and utility runs are assessed for the individual site.

05How quickly is the room installed?

Workshop preparation helps reduce disruption on site. The installation programme depends on size, access, foundations, fit-out and service works, so we confirm a realistic project programme with the quotation rather than promise a universal number.

06Can you design around an office, gym or specialist hobby?

Yes. Furniture, equipment, acoustic needs, daylight, privacy, storage, power and ventilation can all influence the layout and specification. We ask about those details before fixing the design.
