    Included as standard

    A complete annexe specification

    Our garden rooms are deliberately base-plus-options, so you only pay for the finish you want. An annexe is the opposite proposition: it arrives as a finished, decorated, serviced residential space.

    • Prefabricated bespoke structure, installed

      Panels and components manufactured in our West Midlands workshop, then assembled and installed on your site by our own team.

    • Ground screw foundation

      Ground screws are our standard base solution — no concrete slab, minimal garden disruption.

    • Fully insulated

      Insulation to walls, floor and roof for year-round residential comfort.

    • Plasterboarded and fully skimmed

      Internal plasterboard with a full plaster skim throughout — a proper solid internal finish.

    • Fully decorated throughout

      Walls, ceilings and woodwork decorated as standard. Not an optional extra.

    • Electrical installation

      Consumer unit, lighting throughout, 8 double sockets, a heater in every habitable room and a heated towel rail in the bathroom.

      3 metre worktop, two double base units, one drawer unit, sink, tap, water heater and standard installation.

    Configurator

    Build your annexe specification

    Seven short steps. Your initial configured estimate updates as you go and is always inclusive of VAT.

    An annexe is a bespoke, site-managed project, so this is a guide based on the specification you choose — your final design and price are confirmed after a consultation and site visit.

    Bedroom in a LouMil garden annexe

    Layout

    One bedroom, or two

    The standard concept is one bedroom with an open-plan living and kitchen space, plus the bathroom. Adding a second bedroom is £1,600 and covers the partition, plasterboard, skim, decoration, additional electrics and heater, and flooring.

    Every annexe is bespoke, so the examples you see here are inspiration rather than fixed models — yours is drawn around how you intend to live in it.

    Services

    The first 20 metres are included

    Both service runs include the first 20 linear metres as part of the standard package: the armoured electrical cable and the water plus waste. Only the metres beyond that allowance are charged — armoured cable at £11 per additional metre and water plus waste at £45 per additional linear metre. The two runs are worked out independently.

    Planning

    Planning and the caravan legislation framework

    Depending on the proposed use, design and site circumstances, an annexe may be designed with the caravan legislation framework in mind, or may require a full planning permission and building control route. We can discuss the appropriate route for your project.

    We do not offer legal advice or guarantees about any particular route. Where a formal application is the right approach, we will tell you honestly.

    FAQs

    Questions worth asking

    Is the estimate on this page really complete?+

    It covers the full standard annexe package: the installed structure on ground screws, insulation, plasterboard and skim, decoration throughout, the kitchen and bathroom allowances, the electrical installation with heating, French doors plus four windows, and the first 20 metres of both service runs. Appliances and bespoke kitchen or bathroom specifications are separate — we never fold guesses into your figure.

    Will I need planning permission?+

    Depending on the proposed use, design and site circumstances, an annexe may be designed with the caravan legislation framework in mind, or may require a full planning permission and building control route. We can discuss the appropriate route for your project.

    What happens if my services are further than 20 metres away?+

    The first 20 metres of the armoured cable run and the first 20 metres of the water and waste run are both included. Beyond that, armoured cable is £11 per additional metre and water plus waste is £45 per additional linear metre. The two runs are calculated separately, so you are never charged twice for the same distance.

    Can I have two bedrooms?+

    Yes. One bedroom with an open-plan living and kitchen space is the standard concept; an additional bedroom is £1,600 and includes the partition, plasterboard, skim, decoration, additional electrics and heater, and flooring.

    Is an annexe prefabricated or built on site?+

    Both, in the right order. The panels and components are manufactured in our own workshop in the West Midlands, then assembled and installed on your site by our team — followed by the full internal fit-out, plastering and decoration.

    Can the kitchen or bathroom be upgraded?+

    Yes. The standard allowances are shown in full in the calculator, and upgrades — larger runs, integrated appliances, wet rooms, full tiling, accessible adaptations — are specified and priced with your designer rather than guessed at here.
