How to build a garden office in 20 days - step by step instructions

How to build a garden office in 20 days - step by step instructions
In this video I have put together the full build of a block built low/no maintenance garden office / man cave / she shed. This was built in 20 days from start to finish. I explain the process as well as share some important tips and information. I hope the video helps if you are self building. We can also build one for you so please give us a call if you need a quote.

USED BRICKS WITH BIG HOLES WILL CAUSE , THAT HOUSE WILL not keep warm, it will BE COLD !! WE HAVE THE same type of bricks in our house...

[@sudorelabs4901]

What would u charge to this in my back garden? Little smaller

[@salemalnuaimi602]

How much for a similar job?

[@darrenthebuilder]

@@salemalnuaimi602 around 20k

[@mikebuick2332]

How many people have watched this video and then thought “that’s a piece of piss - I could do that!” and then realised you’ve made it look so easy with your hard graft? That summer house is done to a better standard than most of the new build houses and conversions where I live!!! 👏👏👏

[@nonopolo9569]

an excellent book if you are considering building a shed. While you may not choose to build one exactly as shown in this book kzbin.infoUgkxT9ExVpR-3A-9rpRqx8vzXKZ3BMMTg_KH , the information found in here would be useful in any shed building project. The information is well presented, with color photos throughout. As was noted in a previous review, though some dimensions are given, the complete plans must be ordered elsewhere. I ordered the plans for the gambrel shed and did notice a few discrepancies between the book and plans however.

[@frankieunique5381]

Your workmanship is excellent! There are many garden room videos on KZbin but yours is one of the only ones with over a million views which is testament to not just how talented you both are but also how informative your video is. Thanks for sharing with us!!!

[@HumansAreShitFactories]

How do you know the workmanship is excellent? Are you as good as or better than to compare?

[@darrenthebuilder]

They came and inspected everything

[@mymyohmygod]

@@darrenthebuilder - that shut him up didn't it? :-)

[@MikeDailly]

Never seen a build from start to finish like this - was eye opening to say the least. loved it. So much detail and hard work gone into it. Many thanks.

[@gforcekaras]

That's probably built better than most normal houses lol! Great job guys!

[@jasdhillon9200]

This is one comprehensive video unlike other garden room fitters who just provides clips here and there. Very well done chaps.

[@Dougie-ic3nd]

You know what lads I really respect your honesty,and as a bricky with 20+ years under my belt I applaud you 👊🏼👌🏼

[@davidallen6080]

The best build video i have ever seen,the workmen were second to none & described things very clearly 11/10.

[@macdaddy3430]

This is the best video for a step by step process of building a block building I've ever seen , and I've looked for ages to find one of this calibre. I'm now building this on my own but making it slightly bigger for my garden. I'm at the stage of the footings, omg it's hardwork 🤯 back breaking is an understatement 😭 👨🏼‍🦯. Great work though lads very impressive for 20 days 👏

[@phillcrean2300]

Watched this from start to finish in about three sittings. Hats off to you both, really enjoyed the build, absolutely professional finish, thank you for producing the video and it’s editing and voiceover,, must have taken you as long to film, edit as the build. Fantastic guys

[@wanubijohari1]

So I am in Brasil and as a 50 year old lady this is exactly what I needed as I am planning to build my own tiny home.(I have some experience as I did build a bottom addition to an exsisting house years ago) Absolutely loved everything about this . Congratulations and THANK YOU . Blessings.

[@oldmate99]

will you have a potty?

[@bobby9791]

I love watching people take pride in what they do, and you two gents do exactly that. Skill, knowledge, pride and you end up with a fantastic building.

[@patrickmcgivern9686]

Really enjoyed the video. Great job and i love how you explain the process, calmly and clearly...no fuss or shouting like you often see on youtube. Looking forward to learning more !

[@spidyman8853]

WOW just wow. You guys had me glued to the screen. Well done for your caring and professional work. Sadly some builders like to cut corners but you guys took your time and did a professional job. Cheers for that.

[@averagegilo]

I agree, absolutely fantastic work

[@ynoleb]

Excellent job , you never mentioned how much you charge for this job .

[@JTodd-fp2ve]

You get straight to the work, beautiful visuals , with clear, direct instructions. Thank you. 🙂

[@princesse5043]

Excellent.watched it all and have to say I have only ever seen 1 other man do this standard of finish. Well done to you. Never drop your standards. Wish you all the best.

Tearing down the old shed was a lot of work but building the new building was humungus. thank you for showing us you hard work.

[@bernadetteosantowski9778]

The gentleman that's doing the mudding on the wall is a fabulous worker that's best I've ever seen.

[@HK_8822]

Amazing job guys! Such a clean and great looking build. Thanks for showing us how it’s done!

[@johnmyers8493]

Am a retired joiner/builder and you've done really well lads ,very good impressed like clockwork and a great job done ✅

[@stephenambrose2103]

Saw this a while back and saved for when I was ready to start my shed planning. Guy's it's great. What got me was the chilled way you said you had to carry all your material through the house in buckets (foundation stage) so it took a bit longer. WHAAAT? LMAO for sure.

[@hunterluxton5976]

This is absolutely fantastic. Just what I need to do my self build garden brick office. Thank you for posting this. 👍

[@1968davidlynch]

I accidentally click this video link and watched from beginning to end. Totally impressed amazing building skills and the finish product was awesome; I had no idea that that flat roof buildings have storm straps I’m worried about next doors office building now 😂. Great video and interesting narration many thanks .

[@themudhutt1]

You should do this after every big job , great to see all in one .

[@coffeeguy6673]

Great job guys. I lost a stone in weight just watching you, that's a lot of graft, hats off to you.

[@Dannydawson537]

Was not expecting “ Orright people “ in a London accent I was expecting some old dude with white hair and a posh accent 😂 fair play boys absolutely 💯 smashed it

[@ballardboy691]

My wife and I are thinking of doing something like this but have as much building experience as the next door neighbours cat. This video is so clear and well explained, I’m pretty sure we could do most of this. The only things I would get outsourced are the electrics and the plastering. I enjoyed watching every second of this

[@miladmiah965]

There needs to be more videos like this. Great stuff, very educational for us DIYers

[@karenreid9407]

This is absolutely fabulous, so informative, you make it look so easy. Well done and thank you

[@kentbennett331]

Very nice. I appreciate how you explain each step with a reason and understanding on “why”. Job well done. I believe I have the courage to pull off the build with a few help from friends.

[@glennfolau6959]

These are great tutorials, you explain not only how you go about doing things on the build, but just as importantly why you do what you do, this assists people greatly. You also seem multitalented, plastering is not easy, I can never get it right. I'm from New Zealand, and we probably wouldn't go to the trouble of skimming the entire walls and entire ceiling down here. Looking good.

[@cgatama]

Good staff. Now I feel like I've gained all the knowledge I need to do such a small SQ for my upcoming 😅😜 project. Must be the first video, 1+hrs long, that I've watched without skipping to the end of the finished product. Great work guys

[@miriamkivlehan3498]

Great video - very informative and wonerful to see a build using lots of manual tools and basic power tools. Making the furruing strips and k-rendering the exterior with mesh were particulalrly useful, and I also like the speed skim device.

Awesome! very nice post. I watch the whole thing, and I've learned a lot. It's a good video when you can sit through it. Very informative. Thank you. I wish you guys a lot of success.👍

Outstanding fellas, very well presented and great looking end result, cheers.

[@FanPhys]

Brilliant video, so helpful for people who might want to do the same thing. You guys make it look so easy and the finish is of a superb quality, and such a quick turnaround as well. This is definitely the way to go for a low maintenance garden office/sunroom with various options (warm roof, cold roof, blocks or bricks etc.) and I'd guess would add quite a bit of value to a property as well.

[@marycummings5204]
