Corner Garden Rooms

Just a brief note to say how delighted I am with the Melanie (9.6 sqm) Log Cabin I bought from you. Your service and price were superb and Greg and Craig came at 9am on Tuesday and worked right through until 8pm to build it.
They did an excellent job and did not stop all day. Greg advised that I should paint the door and windows a different colour as otherwise the green painted log cabin would be ‘lost’ in the garden and I took their advice. I used two different colours of Butinox No. 3 and the result is absolutely incredible. Many thanks once again. One hugely satisfied customer.

The delivery lorry arrived about eleven o’clock and the driver duly unloaded two very large packages. At eleven thirty my neighbour and I began to investigate these well protected packages.
Just after three o’clock that afternoon, two self satisfied men were enjoying a well deserved beverage whilst admiring the 4.5 by 3.5 meter cabin which was now completed up to roof purling level.
The construction of the cabin was so logical and easy, just like assembling ‘Lego blocks’ only heavier.

We absolutely love our Summer House – we can seat 16 people inside it, it stays warm long after the sun has gone down and it is particularly special as we run a B&B, so we can escape into it, invite all our friends to parties in it and now, we have installed electricity so can have lighting, heat and music as and when needed. It also provides a really big area to store all our garden furniture during the winter months.
We would absolutely recommend you to anyone considering buying one. Many thanks.

Frequently Asked Questions

How easy is it to assemble a corner garden room from Palmako?

Palmako’s corner garden rooms come as high-quality prefab kits, which are designed for easy assembly. Each kit includes pre-cut materials and clear instructions, making the building process straightforward. For those who prefer assistance, Palmako also offers professional installation services to ensure a hassle-free experience.

Do corner garden rooms require planning permission?

Planning permission requirements for corner garden rooms depend on a variety of factors, including the size of the structure, its height, its intended use, and its location within your property.

Additionally, local regulations and designations, such as conservation areas or listed buildings, may impose specific restrictions.

We recommend consulting your Local Planning Authority to ensure your project complies with current planning and building regulations.

What log thickness should I choose for my garden studio?

In short, 18mm-28mm walls are suitable for sheds, workshops, and summer houses that will primarily be used during the summer. If you plan to use the building in the warmer months of spring, summer, and autumn, 34mm walls are ideal. For year-round use, it's best to opt for cabins with 44mm walls or, even better, 70mm logs paired with double glazing.

How long do garden buildings typically last?

At Palmako, we use only the highest quality timber in our products. If you opt for our dip treatment service and regularly treat your log cabin or summer house every 3-4 years with a high quality timber treatment, it should last a lifetime. Most premium treatment products offer a five-year guarantee. If you’re unsure about which treatment to use, feel free to contact our team for expert advice on the best options for your cabin.

What roofing options are there?

Each of our products comes with a recommended roof type. These include basic felt roofing, roof shingles for a more decorative look and an EPDM rubber roof covering suitable for flat roofs.

What is included and excluded from the standard price of a new summer house?

The standard price includes free shipping to mainland UK, a five-year warranty, and the selected timber building with its floor (unless otherwise stated), single or double doors, and single or double-glazed windows (unless otherwise stated), as well as fixing materials, locks, handles, and keys.

Exclusions are optional extras like roofing felt or shingles, terraces, shutters, extensions, and internal wall cladding kits, which can be purchased separately. If you’re unsure about what’s included in your purchase, feel free to reach out for personalized advice.
