Hi I've just had permission to build a large garden room 12m x 5m which will form a gym and entertainment room. It needs to be built to building regs due to size. It'll have a small kitchen/bathroom.
I've spoken to numerous builders (some I know and some getting quotes) and each seems to suggest the best way to build is either SIPs, Blockwork or a timber frame. I'm not a builder so don't know which to choose.
Can anyone advise on the benefits/negatives of each and which might be most cost-effective option please?
Other questions:
Would you go for an insulated concrete base? and with insulation under the concrete or over it?
How do I make sure the floor is strong enough?
If it was timber frame or blockwork what insulation would you use - PIR or other?
Would you go for a warm roof or cold?
Any other major considerations to think of?
Thanks Rob
