Has anyone used a shed in the garen to work from home?


Recommended Posts

Hi there,


We have just had a little baby and are needing extra room! As budget is tight we were thinking of erecting a shed in the garden for my partner to work in. Has anyone done this and have any tips or things that have worked or haven't or things we should look out for?


Any advice would be much appreciated!


Many thanks,


Annie

The only thing I would warn you to look out for is the spiders. They love ours. Arachnids as big as your head have come out from under the floorboards.


Other than that it?s a great office/yoga space/loud guitar playing room/batcave.

I have a buddy journalist who put in a shed/office in the garden and it works well although it was not a cheap structure as it was a flat packed cottage lookalike, it needs to be fully insulated (roof and walls)


I built my own which cost 2.5k for the bits and pieces, and a few weeks of time and energy, his cost more than double that.

    • If you don't innately know from a human perspective  why it's not tasteful to ask 'what's the latest on the court case??' then I can't really explain it I guess. I suspect the family are finding the concept of the circumstances being hashed out in court and the papers quite distressing so although I'm sure they are touched by the support and outpouring of affection for Akif I don't think they want the private details to be a 'matter of local interest.' If people are desperate to keep up to date with the court case they can google it. It doesn't need to be discussed on a local forum. Just a bit of basic decorum and sensitivity really.

    • Third time using Leon to do electrical work. He always keeps you informed of arrival time and is calm and so polite. He gets on with the job quickly and efficiently with no fuss. His rates are also really reasonable.He will be my go to electrician and I have no hesitation recommending him.
