Hi David, check out Ali Dymock's RUclips channel and website (alidymock.com) - he has some great content there too, which I wish was around when I was planning mine.
Thank you and good luck with your build. If I was doing it again, I'd probably think more about fitting air conditioning. Yes it can be retrofitted, but better to consider during the design stage. If you think you will need to use it without windows open (for noise), may be worth considering.
I’ve had to do it that way out of necessity when avoiding ducts and piping. Also helpful when you have limited crew. Hard to raise heavy walls by yourself...
Hello, great video! I’ve been reading the comments and see that the cost of the project was 10k all in, but you would have saved money on red cedar wood cladding and sliding door alternatives. You mentioned that you weren’t doing it as cost efficiently as possible and that you could have done if you wanted to. Could I ask what you would have done differently and what alternatives you would have used in order to do it for cheaper, yet still maintaining a similar standard of quality on the important things? And a rough figure of how much in total that would theoretically cost? One again, great video thanks for sharing.
Hi, many thanks and a great question. I think in general cost could have been saved in almost every aspect of the build by more planning and a more basic specification. I have a tendancy to over-engineer things, I used a thicker base and tougher mix of concrete - which was probably unnecessary. I used thicker wood in the contruction, and the insulation was relatively expensive compared to rockwool. The electrics were generously distributed, with wired network - I could have got away with less. The thickness of the roof membrane was the heavy duty gauge rather than standard...... i could continue. These all add up to a greater cost and largely invisible. The Canadian red cedar cladding was the single most expensive, it looks beautiful - but after a few years I must say is probably less distinguishable to the same species sourced elsewhere (eg I used British red cedar for the back and side against the fence). The door could have been cheaper if not an 'L' shape, a corner pillar and a full height window could have been done - and would have been cheaper, for minimal visual impact. All in all, I think it may have been possible to shave as much as £2k off the total cost (thus total spend =£8k). However, some of those changes would have also resulted in greater running costs (eg, thinner or lower performance insulation means higher heating costs - although I could have used one of those cheap oil heaters which may have been more cost effective).
There is a structual element designed into the window to bear the weight, this was one of the design criteria for the window. This design did add significant cost, but I think it was worth it.
I'm really looking at this in detail only because I'm thinking of doing it myself. Was there an incline on the roof? It was so close to the fence on the left, was it not difficult to get in there to finish that side off.
Yes, there is a small incline of a few degrees (that's all that is needed for drainage). My garden is fairly small so I needed as much space as possible - so I did intentionally build it close to the boundary (which limits the max height to avoid planning requirements). I used child labor :-) to fix the cladding on those sides, and used thicker sheets of english red cedar to save cost and make it easier. They all had to be screwed too as there was even insufficient space to swing a hammer. If you have the space, I would not recommend you do the same.
Great build and thanks for sharing. I've been looking at other builds and main contention lies in avoiding rising damp and trapped moisture within walls. This seems the most impressive so far, could you help me with some specifics: * I see that you have a DPC under the slab and that looks to be tucked under the door frames and 1ft overlap with membrane everywhere else. What is this spec called? (You mention in another comment that it is documented somewhere). * For the EPDM roof is that a specific edging kit? (I just noticed the joining bracket) * Does the over hang of roof count towards the allowed footprint? (Also in UK and keeping within permission requirements). * How did you affix cladding with such a small gap to the fence? Was there some special tool involved? * For walls inside out did it go: plasterboard, "air tight layer", insulating foam board, DPC (1 ft up from ground), breathable membrane, baton (for breathing gap?) then cladding? Was it same for roof/ceiling? * For the load bearing doors, do they have some named spec? (My google search for load bearing pvc door is not turning much up) * How does/would the electricity supply feed into the structure from house? Is it something to plan before pouring the slab foundation? Sorry for having so many questions! I appreciate any answers or even just some links to more articles of research. Thanks agains for sharing your build!
Hi, thank you for your questions. May have to take these one by one. so here goes. 1. The DPM is 300uM to EN 13967:2012. 2. The EPDM roof edging, actually I could have designed that better because there were actually two edging strips used, one slightly smaller than the other (and a different colour) - if I were doing it again I'd just have one edging strip. 3. Regarding the footprint - I don't know. I was nowhere near the limit of allowable area, so it wouldn't have made any difference - but if you are close to the limit of permitted development I would advise you consult an expert. 4. The cladding next to the fence was fitted by skinny child labour. It was screwed in position using small stainless steel screws as this was found to be easier than using nails - they are hidden given the profile of the cladding used. 5. Yes for walls. For ceiling, similar but the plasterboard is bonded with a ~40mm layer of insulation and integrated air tight layer. Then an additional air tight layer, additional insulation between joists, OSB then EPDM. More to follow...
6. Sorry I do not have any specific details. I used a local company, they added steel reinforcement of the frame and included a welded cill. It is a 72mm frame.
7. The electrical instalation would almost certainly need to be done by a qualified electrician. In the UK the standard to follow is BS 7671:2008 +A1:2011. This will vary according to your plans, distance from the house, expected load etc. In my case two connections exist - normal mains electricity and data network, both via armoured cable. The cable I used was 4mm (which is a size higher than was actually necessary) and connection is via a fused spur. The cable entrance is above the slab, I did not run cables under concrete. Hope this answers all your questions.

@@byrnepatrick21 Hi, the outer layer of the walls was OSB. On the inside though I used plywood on the shed/workshop section (because it is easier to screw things to) and for the office part I used Plasterboard, with a coat of plaster on top. I didn't use MDF anywhere in the construction.

Yes, the main limitation is the height of the structure, which basically means it will need to have a flat roof to remain within permitted development.

Hi I am getting a builder to con vert my pergola into a studio. My question is how do we seal the back as it’s a tight fit for a person to get it water tight and your video looks like it’s a similar width on the left.😮
Yes, this was also a problem for me. I hired a very skinny person to fix the cladding. The other parts I could do myself, but it was not easy. If there is insufficient space on your build, I would contemplate fabricating the wall separately and then fitting it into place from the inside out. It is somewhat unconventional and probably not easy, but for a DIY project probably doable.
Hi Paul, yes that is a correct observation and something I have been concious of afterwards. I would probably have done things differently second time around, however at the moment there is no evidence of any problem at all. I was careful to ensure the vapor barrier was not compromised - thus limiting any moist air getting into that void. Additionally, there area actually three vapor layers (because the Certex insulation is also sealed) and I have two layers of Certex. It is a problem when building close to the property boundary because of the height limitation, hence a warm roof is not always possible depending on the topography of the surrounding land. It is now three years since construction.
I think you are referring to the breathable membrane, this is a waterproof but breathable membrane that goes between the interior and exterior of the building, it is designed to keep moisture out from both stopping any getting in, and allowing moist vapour from escaping to the outside.

Your shed looks great! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! I built an 8x10 shed for my kids in my backyard earlier this year using plans I got from *WoodBlueprints. Com* Clear directions and an accurate materials list...It was great for a novice builder like myself!
Very impressive. Looks like that door took some hanging.
It was indeed incredibly heavy
@@mlawson123 💪
Any chance we can see the finish inside?
@@YanWangStudio Sure, check out part 2 linked at the end and in the description.
Didn’t think he was going to get it done in time.
Is it permitted development close to boundary fence? Thanks
Yes, the main limitation is the height of the structure, which basically means it will need to have a flat roof to remain within permitted development.
@@mlawson123 Thank you so much.
Mine only took 5 mins ........
Damn. That took you a loooooooooong time to build. Cobwebs on the camera and everything!
9 months, weekends and evenings. Yep, could have been quicker. Good I have a day-job, I'd never make money being a builder.
@@mlawson123 looking to build something similar, what are the sizes of yours? Looks excellent by the way 👍
@@adammcelhatton6427 Thanks, (from memory) it was about 5.5m wide and 2.2m deep.
@@mlawson123 thanks mate, I have about 4.5m wide by around 5m deep, what was the rough cost for yours
@@adammcelhatton6427 About £10k

Research flat earth good job
Them flat earthers are but jobs
Hi I am getting a builder to con vert my pergola into a studio. My question is how do we seal the back as it’s a tight fit for a person to get it water tight and your video looks like it’s a similar width on the left.😮
Yes, this was also a problem for me. I hired a very skinny person to fix the cladding. The other parts I could do myself, but it was not easy. If there is insufficient space on your build, I would contemplate fabricating the wall separately and then fitting it into place from the inside out. It is somewhat unconventional and probably not easy, but for a DIY project probably doable.
What did you use on the roof?
EPDM rubber membraine
Just a query. You went for cold roof construction and I couldn't see an air gap.
How did the roof hold up re damp etc
Hi Paul, yes that is a correct observation and something I have been concious of afterwards. I would probably have done things differently second time around, however at the moment there is no evidence of any problem at all. I was careful to ensure the vapor barrier was not compromised - thus limiting any moist air getting into that void. Additionally, there area actually three vapor layers (because the Certex insulation is also sealed) and I have two layers of Certex. It is a problem when building close to the property boundary because of the height limitation, hence a warm roof is not always possible depending on the topography of the surrounding land. It is now three years since construction.
@@mlawson123 thanks for the reply. Planning a build for spring and planning a cold roof for boundary limits also so trying to plan the roof .
She’s a beaut
Wow beautiful
Gorgeous!!!
Thank you!!
At the 6:01 work what is that paper under the wood called, is that insulation paper does anyone have a video of how it works?
I think you are referring to the breathable membrane, this is a waterproof but breathable membrane that goes between the interior and exterior of the building, it is designed to keep moisture out from both stopping any getting in, and allowing moist vapour from escaping to the outside.
@@mlawson123 thank you!
excellent vid! did you end up putting network / internet out there?
Yes, hardwired is much more reliable than relying on wifi from the house
A LOT OF WORK FOR ONE GUY.....WOW....
i helped :)
Nice job.
Never seen this type of construction in a dress shirt and dress pants before. Impressive the shirt never comes untucked 🤣
Thank you, one must be suitably attired when doing DIY.
That looks amazing.
Great video not bad for a few weeks 👍🏻
That looks incredible. Fantastic job

Thanks for sharing, I should be so be sharing mine soon a long with cost.
Awesome Job. Thanks for sharing.
Do you have a shed measuring 10’ wide and 7’ deep?
Amazing!
Look very nice, you good campenter :)
