    What would make this an even better garden room is, add integral solar panels to the roof panels, with the addition of factory fitted led lighting, run cables in channels out to corresponding wall channels, add a small battery storage/inverter to one wall panel and Bob's your uncle you have an off grid garden room... So easy! If only!

    • @kensladen

      Except that in the winter, when you need the most power for light and heating, there’s not enough solar …so it would be a waste of money

      ​​@@kensladenif it's well insulated it will need very little heating. 5.5m x 3.3m is 18.15m². Solar panels are already over 100 Watts per meter, 18 x 100+ Watts is 1.8kW.. So it's almost a 2KW roof. Should be enough to heat this well insulated room.
      Solar is improving all the time. Have you seen the new slates that are all solar panels that link together? They are of the Tesla solar roof and storage kit. Marques Brownlee, the famous TH-camr, did his house with the Tesla kit and 3 batteries. After a year he put out a video. He now draws zero electricity from the grid over a year. Just from his roof.
      There's a new solar charging car being launched this year. It can charge up to 20 miles a day in UK/Holland, 30 miles in Spain. And it costs only £6,000 new. Only a tiny 2 seater. But still 20-30 miles of free fuel mileage a day on a £6k car is astonishing. Obviously car rental companies are queuing to buy them.

    I've just helped a friend put one of these up, this video proved invaluable thank you! here's some observations that may help anyone else looking to build one: The head beam is an absolute nightmare to get on, it took 3 of us about 2.5hrs using a process of clamping, bashing and running scrapers up the inside to stop it catching on the insulated panels. The rivet gun absolutely kills your hands, getting one with longer handles is a must in my opinion. When the roof panels seat together they look like the should fit flush but they actually stop about 1cm off each other leaving what I assume to be a ventilation gap running the whole length on the inside, this freaked me out for a bit thinking we had done something wrong but you can just about see them in the video. There is seemingly no way to fit the roof panels without getting them covered in bitumen while positioning them because you have to feed them backwards, then forwards. On the kit we fitted the header corners were mis-labelled but it was obvious how they went on due to the angles.

      @@theinsulatedpanelstore4740 Hello, I am 'the friend' - I'll send some photos no worries. I bought the building on the back of this video and we referenced it quite a lot during the build. Overall I'm very pleased with the building, and the customer service from you guys was great. It did take 2 seasoned DIYers more like 3 days to complete however (including fitting the door). Mine is on a timber base, if I was doing it again I'd lay a concrete one as balancing on the joists and noggins made everything harder with the build, especially lifting the roof panels into place. The header part was an absolute nightmare, I thought we'd never get it on to be honest. If the header had gone on before the door flashing things may have been simpler perhaps, as you end up with a big bow in the doorway which doesn't help things. If we'd have had some kind of prop for the door space it might have gone more smoothly. The floor is a very tight fit - best to use a pull bar like the sort you have when fitting a laminate floor, to tighten the panels up - otherwise the last panel wont fit.Its also really difficult to fit the floor without scratching the walls. Now its all done it looks great, It is also extremely warm in the building, even without heating. Pretty impressive.

      @@Denboydeus the inside of the panels are white metal - I’ve left mine like this and ran a conduit around the bottom for plug sockets and things. Wiring for the lights is also in conduit mounted to the surface - it looks fine for an office. You could baton and plasterboard if you wanted, and put the wiring behind, I’m sure it would look good - but I had no need to.

      Wow. you trust someone because they made a video that depicts how simple something is when it can be edited to fuck, its content like this that makes people assume that work can be done at a click of the fingers, it’s also pre made and there’s probably more than two guys doing this... and if they got it done in a day they have earned more than a day rate to do the job. It’s mis informed, to make these guys look like they are doing something that others cannot. It’s a good idea don’t get me wrong... but in reality you’ve got something that was put up in a day, and what do they say about Rome? This is modern and cheap methods being applied... no one is going to look at it in 30 years time and see a structure worth keeping, chances are it will be gone by then... because it’s a shed. And as a carpenter and joiner of nearly 20 years I can tell you it is not a nice looking shed either. Stop believing these people and do some research, maybe you’ll see there’s more to everything than what you see from who you think you can trust

  • @jacquesmertens3369
    @jacquesmertens3369 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Are rivets the only way to create a tight fit? It makes it impossible to disassemble the box. Also, the panels are a nightmare to recycle because the insulation is glued to the metal and the plastic.
    Also, there's no prefabricated cutouts for plumbing or wiring.
    The total price of this build is around 15K and I find that an awful lot of money for what you actually get.
    Having said this, your video is still very helpful. It's important to know what's on the market. What doesn't work for me might work for someone else.

    Roger, I’ve built several garden office/workshop/offices using the same materials for the roof alone, in timber you’re looking at three - four weeks from slab form to finish. Heating is a doddle, I use mine as a workshop (6 x 4M) and only have a small fan heater to take any chill out of the room in the winter, my neighbours one (7 x 4M) I used electric underfloor heating laid in the floor levelling compound then underfloor heated suitable laminate flooring, these rooms are extremely efficient and more people could build these themselves especially using your method. Your welcome to come and see what I’ve built as I’m only in Ruislip. I’m building another as a favour for a friend in the coming weeks in Rickmansworth and then another for myself in Dorset later this year. Like you said, check planning restrictions but mostly can be built without planning permission, but always best to engage the neighbours first, you may even be asked to build one for them like I have.

      I might be wrong but it looks like recessed electrics would be almost impossible in this style of build so you would probably need to run all the wiring surface mounted in conduit either PVC or Galvanised steel for a more industrial feel. Lighting would be tricky too. Recessed Downlights would be a nightmare so some kind of surface mounted LED fitting would possibly be best. These kind of kits save DIYers a lot of money until they have to get electricians involved. 😅

      ✌️What electrics would be needed?
      with such a well insulated building probably only lighting, perhaps a few cables for computers etc.
      Unless using for accommodation, but then it’s not sold as accommodation it’s sold as a garden room.

    I built a garden room with the intention of having a nice, quiet relaxing chill out zone. A place where i can wind down after a busy day, to light an incense stick, a place to contemplate and to work out the meaning of life. What's it all about, egg or chicken first if you like. Instead it's full of offcuts of timber that i'll never use, gone off bags of cement, a 3 legged dining table, a broken washing machine, various obsolete electrical good's, my warped vinyl collection, and 2 spare wheels for a Mk3 Ford Cortina ( a car i sold 28 years ago).

      This is why poor people like us remain poor, and the rich get richer. They just think and act different. They think before they act.
      Poor people go out spending and wasting money for things they will never use. Or if they ever use them, it will be seldom.
      I myself have been contemplating building one of this to use as a gym but when I do the math, it just doesn't make sense. I can pay 30£ a month for a gym subscription and the gym is just 6 minutes drive, fully equipped with a swimming pool as well.
      Now compare that with spending 20£K and some change for a garden room, if you include the electricals and the gym equipment. It makes no sense. The 20£K goes a long way in paying off my mortgage or investing in something else where my money can grow.
      Of course I don't mean this if you are a millionaire and have enough money to waste. But if you are not, then it is a real financial illiteracy if you spend this much money for something you don't need or which you can get as a rental at a much cheaper price.
      Don't get me wrong brother, this rant is aimed at myself as well coz I am by no means a millionaire and I've been tempted many times to get one of this, but thankfully so far I have been able to overcome my temptations.
