Thinking of building an insulated and soundproof garden room – partly so that our son can practice drumming more often, but also for as use as an art studio etc.
We have space for something around 5m x 4m in the garden, about a metre from the fence. Will be a pent style roof probably.
Current thinking is to get someone in that can dig out the foundations for a concrete base and ensure that it is level etc. as the ground slopes in that area. Following that, the first question is – kit or get the raw materials? Bearing in mind we want it soundproofed (to a degree) as well.
We have power nearby that we can run into so that won’t be a problem. Thinking of plywood walls internally and for the ceiling which will be painted so that it reduces the need for plaster as I’m not that good at plastering. We do have a water supply nearby but don’t think we’ll be running water into it.
Other consideration is to to have a patio door type opening to let plenty of light in.
I’ve seen some kits online and they range in price quite considerably, but then you do get all the materials you need and it should be easier to construct.
So, any thoughts and experiences – anyone done this? Anyone used a kit etc?
Cheers
