We're a small building company based in Glasgow and had a really good long term client who couldn't afford a full build from ourselves . We recommend your build pack to them and helped them with the stages they were concerned about , concrete/rods electrics ,door installation , rubber roof etc . Worked out great in the end for everyone , client saved a load of money and we got some great jobs off the back of it . Would highly recommend the build packs even if you dont do 100% on your own
This video is the result of a chance meeting between my Dad, Bhupinder and yourself Liam. You totally inspired him to embark on his own build..😁 Thank you for making his day. He was Totally Gobsmacked at ur appreciation and comments!👍🏼 Liam your enthusiasm is incredible!! 😁👏
Hi mate, how did dad fix the trim to the plywood? silicone? i have just basically copied this haha love it. just wondering how he secured this to the plywood! :)
I brought your build pack a couple of years ago. I didn’t even own a power tool. After watching your videos we now own an awesome garden room with a bar and an adjoining workshop. Couldn’t have done it without you Liam. Thanks.
Bought my build pack 2 weeks ago have dug 22 holes and concreted the rods in so far on my own ! I’m a nurse and girl anyone can do it ! Liam you need to do a series touring the country looking at peoples builds 😊 any other lady builders on here ?
Lall is a cracking bloke Liam …. I spent lots of time with him putting his orders for materials together when I worked at Selco and then saw the immense pride and satisfaction in his face when he brought in pictures of it finished !!! Really shows how helpful and logical the build packs are !!! Great work !!!
I'm based in Jersey and am literally closing in on the end of a self-build. Minimal experience beforehand, but a handy DIY father that has been a massive help ;) Only wish I had discovered you, your videos and build pack before I got underway! I'm sure it would have saved me months and months of pain-staking research and deliberation trying to work out technical details that would have been second nature to you, I'm sure! Love your positive energy. Best of luck with all your plans.
Love this! As a software developer who is currently building one myself, I agree with you. I followed your UA-cam videos and got the first fix electric done yesterday. Plaster boarding this week.
I brought your build pack a couple of years ago, with the help of your UA-cam channel and the build pack I created a 5x3 garden room for my wife so she could do her crafts My plan is to create a book showing all the stages of the build. Glad to see you smiling I know you get a buzz from seeing people build their garden rooms which is fantastic. If your in North Wales pop in and say hello.
I know you've had a lot of stick over the years but your genuine pride and enthusiasm when you met your customer cannot be faked. Looking forward to seeing the latest project come alive.
Im a mechanic by trade so pretty handy with tools but watched hours and hours of your videos, it gave me the confidence to convert my garage into a mancave and 3 years later its still like the day i built it! Props to you Liam.
You could do a sponsor a brick for the build. People pay an amount and then you write their name on it, show the camera and then lay the brick. Obviously facing inwards towards the cavity as you don’t want to see it ha
Hi Liam keep it up you are doing a great job and having fun making some brilliant videos superstar Ali Walsall west midlands england junction 10 m6 Walsall churckery please
Do more Videos like this! Brilliant, The Smile 😁 on Your Face Priceless! Well done to that Man 👏👏👏 Apologies i haven't used his Name, I'd only mess up the Spelling of that Gentle Name, Well Done for Having a Go 👏👏👏
I've no idea tbh mate, I'd probably start by digging a massive hole, then researching it🤦🏻♂️ but its happening on my next house, where ever in the world it is😉 how far have you got? have you a channel on here I can watch?
@@thegardenroomguru I have got to the stage of research and clearing the site at the moment. I am based in the south east of the UK :) just speaking to a structural engineer currently. If you click on my channel I have one video up but hope to make some more content. Then on top I want to get something like you have as a office!
Thankyou for sharing your knowledge with us Liam. I am looking at building a room 28sqm internal measurement. Just wanted to ask if I'm ok running to approx. 400mm from the boundary either side, keep at the max height of 2.5m and I should be good to go under PD? The back will have plenty of clearance from the boundary. Cheers!
Yes mate, but the council will want non-combustable materials to boundary sides. This in it's self, is completely open to interpritation by your local council, we've never had an issue, but I know some people have had to use a fire resistant paint, others have had to use fibre cement board, others fire rated plater board to insides, all depends on the inspectors interpretation of the rules mate
I built mine during the pandemic thanks to you but I’m ashamed to say I didn’t buy the build pack I just kept watching one of your full build videos and pausing it 😂
You inspired me to build build my own too. Got wild quotes, limited choice on bespoke sizes. Found your videos and three years later and it's the best investment I made to the house (and it's still standing with no leaks!). Appreciate your enthusiasm and willingness to share your knowledge and expertise!
Love your videos I learn so much from them and it really demystify construction. Do you think at the end of your annex build there would be enough info in it for a regular person to attempt something similar or even larger?
100% mate! Dont get me wrong, I’ve built a couple of extensions, but I’m not a bricklayer. I’m going to break it down completely and give as much information as I can. It’s not a customers job, so I can take my time, answer questions, put prices out there, the lot! If you enjoyed the garden rooms you should enjoy this series, just might be a tad boring as it’ll probably be just me waffling on 😬
Great video Liam and thanks for imparting your knowledge. Quick question, which is the build pack for the largest garden room pictured in the video? Thanks
Hi thanks for this update.. I'm building a garden room 5m x 3m + 2m X 3m canopy. the whole build will be an L shap, I've already applied for planning. Will the builders pack with a warm roof be OK ? I was think i could work out the canopy structure myself, with materials etc then add onto the builder pack, what's your thoughts ? Thanks.
Just built one Liam, documented on my UA-cam channel.... give you a few shout outs as i learnt alot from watching your channel. Done everything myself apart from installing the windows 😊 approx. £8.5k for a 21 x 10 👍
If you bought a piece of land somewhere, could you live in one of these as a kind of temporary accommodation, if you can get the electrics connected up?
I’d love to be able to build one but only get Sundays free at the minute. 3 questions: 1. How long would it take a Diy-er to build with only 1 day a week free? 2. How big can I build if it’s a corner plot next to 2 boundary fences? 3. Fancy you or your team (if you have any left) coming to mine to build it and get some extra funds for your extension? And finally….. keep the vids coming. Need genuine people on here showing how it’s really done.
@@thegardenroomguru no mate. Don’t do social media at all. It’s too toxic. Only joined here because of your videos….. I need my garden landscaping but everyone I spoken to have all said garden room first.
@@Justcraig123 mate, it might be worth just joining for that, I’m admin, no body mocks or takes the pee, I just block em, it’s a solid 42k people with great advice. Fully get the toxic thing though , I’ll sack it all off soon enough
@@thegardenroomguruI just don’t think I’d get it done quick enough. It’d be winter before I’d be anywhere near finished and then we need the landscapers…. I’ll probably just keep looking for someone to do it for us. Finding reputable companies though…. That’s not an easy task. 👍👍
Liam what's the land next to your garden its too small for a garden. Try and buy that land. Loving the new editing and the suspension off whats to come 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
LIAM- JUST TO MENTION , I BUILT TWO GARDEN ROOMS, ONE FOR MY MATE ALSO. I HAVE NO BUILDING EXPERIENCE AT ALL SO IF I CAN DO IT , SO CAN YOU , THE PUBLIC. BUILD ONE 4MTS X 4MTRS BUILD TWO 7MTS X 3MTRS.
Hi Liam ,love the pod but why do you not endorse ground screws and steel frames because I'm sure your subscribers would love the idea of getting a great start by having there design installed with foundations in a mornings work 🤔
Loads of reasons, all negative mate, only good thing is the ability to work off them that day. Spoke to several installers and asked them about timber sizes due to spacings of screws and permitted development. You know what they said? Don’t tell the customer, that’s what they said 🤷♂️ I tell it like it is I’m afraid, and that’s what I got told, steel frames? Again, over priced and you can’t fully insulate the steel C section.
A build pack is £130, my annex? anybody's guess! the pod? well after spending all morning arranging a road closure and a crane, I'm going to be £2K down before its even sold.🫣

Nice to see you literally bursting with joy about the results he get from the build park.
Shows wat can be done if u put ur mind 2 it, from I T 2 building a garden room, lookin 4ward to ur garden makeover

Nice one. I started mine 3 weeks ago. Piles and studs in. floor frame on. joists set. Insulation arriving today...
Hate cutting insulation mate
Flipping brilliant. Well done

Do you not need decent tools? like a work bench and circular saw
look in my playlist mate, there a solo build I did with the bare minimum tools
Looking forward to that build Liam good to see your getting back into it
Fresh start Monday!
