Your project
Will it fit, and do I need planning?
Our design consultants will help with both, with no pressure and no hurry.
Will it fit?
A consultation, your way
Talk through size, position and access with a design consultant. We can prepare a scaled drawing of your garden with your Contemporary in place.
A site survey before installation confirms the right base for your garden.
Planning guidance
Designed for permitted development
The Contemporary is designed to comply with permitted development in most cases. As a guide:
- Up to 2.5m high if within 2m of a boundary. The Contemporary is drawn at 2.5m overall
- Not in front of the house, and no more than half the garden built on
- Not for sleeping or living in without planning permission
- Flats, listed buildings and designated land have extra rules
Guidance only. Check the Planning Portal or your local planning authority before you build.

What a fantastic company!
“I first met Lindsey at Altons, who had a great knowledge of the garden room I was after. I was then in touch with Stephanie who seamlessly organised the build and ground work necessary. It made the whole process so easy.”
