Garden room wall height explained to keep you under the 2.5mtr height limit








Sunday session! and it didn’t involve going to the pub!!
Its a cold one, and the Paslode’s are struggling with the below zero temperatures. The Milwaukee makes another appearance and puts the Paslode to shame.
Ive tried to explain wall height in this one and the reason we use the timber sizes we do.
The delay in doors and windows is forcing my hand and we are pushing forward with new builds as I need to keep the guys and Amy in work!
As always thanks for watching and please leave comments, good or bad, its all good!

Build packs are available at

  1. I always run the bottom wall plate straight along the front and cut it off after instead of lining it up with those blocks

  2. Ever tried a strip foundation and 50mm dwarf wall? Could allow 100mm insulation without floor timbers, just on hardcore without slab. Also, just discovered that in Scotland the height is measured from lowest point adjacent to building!

  3. Love the vids but if it comes in at 2456mm height, why can't you increase the wall heights by 40mm? The extra inch and a half will make all the difference according to my wife.😮

  4. hello, great videos! just wondering what glue you use for the egger protect flooring? I mean just normal wood glue or is it specially for egger?

  5. Love the videos, keep it up! I actually emailed the other day to get a quote for a room from you based on your outstanding videos!

    One question on the 2.5m height – could you dig down into the ground a little in order to have a greater internal height in the garden room?

  6. What about half of the garden room is on existent patio (height of 30cm)? Does it mean the height can only be 220cm?

  7. Thanks for your great videos Liam. Is there a reason you don’t increase the room height another 44mm to utilise the full permitted height?

  8. Great tutorial, I'm too close to the neighbour to be able to clad afterwards, is it a case of building the walls completely and as many bodies as you can to lift into place and do roofing sheets provide a lightweight option? Any advice gratefully received.

  9. I have used 6 x 2 inch timbers for the floor on a 28sqm base. Can you advise on the measurements i require to keep below the 2.5m height. Thanks

  10. Hi I have been watching your videos for months and I think you and your crew doo a fantastic job I just wondered if you could tell me what height you cut the uprights for the Back and front walls … wishing you all the best keep safe and carry on the fantastic builds you do…

  11. Loving these videos. Have you ever excavated to do a sunken garden room, if you've got an 8ft customer?… or, someone like me who wants the garden room to practise the double bass which needs more head height?

  12. Great videos Liam. You use 4 x 2 for the floor joists, with 100mm foil backed insulation dropped in. But isn't the 4×2 less than 100mm deep (they tend to be 95mm or so)? Does this make the insulation sit proud above the joists, or does the flooring compress the insulation?

  13. hi I don't understand on the planing restriction from flour is 150mm but you say 50mm sorry but I'm confused

  14. Is it not 3m if you are 2m away from the boundary to your land and 4m with a double pitched roof in the same circumstances.?

  15. do you need planning permission? ie im looking for someone to do something like this but not as to a high of a spec in plymouth.

  16. Thanks for all these videos, I'm finding them really helpful and informative. I've got two questions, though:
    1. Do you need to take the floor boarding to the edge of the floor frame or could you finish it at where the internal line of the wall will be? (Yes, I know I'm just being tight using the wall width to eek out an extra few inches on either side without buying more boards!!)
    2. Using the threaded rod system, could you use anther 75x75x10 square washer instead of the shoe? I realise it might introduce some movement but surely once it's got a floor screwed on it isnt going anywhere!
    Thanks again!!

  17. I love watching your videos you do amazing job. I was thinking of doing a garden room as you look at the area I want to room to the left I have raised 4x5m area it about 5 to 6 inches Higher to the front view what side can I measure from to stay with the 2.5 ??

  18. When putting up the garden outhouse do you inform the owner of the height or ask if they've planning permission if it looks like it will be above 2.5m or within 2m of a boundary? Or do you proceed if the owner just wants it done, and it's on them to get the relevant planning?

  19. Great content again 👍👍. What size timber would you use for roof if size of summer room was 5m x 5m. Do they need to be bigger in depth, if so will this affect total height??

  20. so how do you stop the condensation under the roof as you cant guarantee the insulation is 100% tight and there is no gap

  21. Great work guys. Would you ever get any rust or corrosion problems with the ground pegs in the concrete? Please settle an argument with a mate of mine cheers.

  22. I'm trying to maximise my build by putting it in an angled corner of the garden…This means that it will be 3m wide at one end and 2.4m wide at the other end…base and walls seem easy enough but struggling with how the roof joist will go to compensate for the difference in width along the length of the building…any help appreciated…cheers…

  23. Great video, going to give one a go myself as I’m going to lose my office to my son soon! 2 questions… any reason why I couldn’t use 3×2 for walls? And why I couldn’t use 4×2 for roof? Not like it’s bearing much weight itself? Cheers

  24. Thanks for sharing, the explanations are really great. I am fascinated by the tek screws and find it amazing you can screw into steel without drilling. It would be interesting to see more on tek screws, do you use different types etc?

  25. Subscribed and have been watching ALL day! Great professional workmanship explained and executed perfectly…. Think I may attempt a build myself lol! WELL DONE guys, lovely Amy too? You are an inspiration….. What a gal! :-))
