With so many design options available for your home garden office, how do you decide which option is the best for your requirements? In order to make this decision you have to take into consideration a few things such as price, construction method, design, size, quality of raw materials, and long term maintenance. Making a straight comparison is often difficult due to the variety of designs available in the market and the variations in quality of construction. For example, it is difficult to compare a log cabin garden office with a fully insulated luxury garden office. This is because some people may think that log cabin style offices in the garden are much more worth the money than putting up sophisticated workplaces. However, if you are looking for a longer term investment, lifespan, usability, maintenance cost and value addition to your existing house are factors that you should consider in whatever style of office you wish to design. Modern garden office buildings like the log cabin style use cheaper insulation and when buying a garden office design off the shelf, you need to be careful of what kind of walls they are going to use because insulation will usually be only in the flooring and in the roof. An office pod design that is cheaper may have hidden extras and the option for upgrading all the essentials at any point in time is available. On the other hand, what you may think as a more expensive price of a garden office is priced in that way because it offers an all inclusive package. Sometimes suppliers who give you the cheaper option may include extra charges for delivery, foundation, installation, double glazing and so on. Therefore, ultimately what you end up paying in the cheaper option may actually cost you more than the supplier offering you the complete package. Moving on, when comparing designs for garden offices, it is better to opt for a supplier who offers a site visit. Any problems such as unleveled sites and limited access can be overcome earlier on in the project if a site visit has been made first. Some suppliers do not offer site visits saying that they are saving the cost for the client and then they depend on the description the client provides of the site. When extra costs are incurred later on due to misunderstandings, these suppliers often blame the client saying that the site is not how the client described it to be. Furthermore, when constructing your home garden office, compare materials that need less maintenance than others. For example, UPVC, metal and softwood paint requires minimum maintenance. Also, make sure you are confident in the supplier you choose to build your work shed and see that they offer plenty of aftercare and guarantees in case things go wrong after construction.
