This customer came to us in April 2024, looking to create a relaxing space in their garden, where they can read and watch the birds all year round.
They had an existing concrete slab foundation in place from a previous garden shed, which made choosing their footprint size very straight forward.
They went for a 3.6m x 3m SIPs kit, and their bespoke 3D design included the following:
- An overall height of 2.5m
- 600mm front roof overhang
- Opening size 2400mm x 2100mm for a door
- All floor SIPs panels in 97mm overall thickness
- All wall and roof SIPs panels in 122mm overall thickness
Since this customer is located within the same town which we are based, they opted to use our installation service.
We have therefore used this studio as an example of how to install one of our SIPs kits, however should you decide to install your SIPs kit yourself, we would provide full assembly instructions on delivery detailing how to do so.
What was included in this SIPs Kit?
For reference, this SIPs kit included the following:
- All SIPs Panels cut and ready to construct – This design consists of 3.0m x 1.2m x 97mm SIP Panels for the Floor, 2.44m x 1.22m x 122mm SIP Panels for the Walls and 3.0m x 1.2m x 122mm SIPs Panels for the Roof.
- All associated jointing splines and timbers – Jointing Splines for 97mm SIPs (2.44m long) and Jointing Splines for 122mm SIPs (2.34m long).
The opening reveal cut and timber lined, ready to install the doors.
Once the kit was fully constructed to shell finish, the customer also chose to order the external breathable membrane and battens from our list of optional extras, which our guys fitted.
As always, it was then down to the customer to finish with their choice of doors, cladding and internal finishes. (We do not supply these)
For reference, they chose to use ivory composite cladding, which we absolutely love and is a popular choice for many!

Overall, the studio is an incredible improvement in comparison to their previous garden shed and is now an excellent use of space. We hope they enjoy their peaceful space to watch the birds and unwind for many years to come.
This company is “Top Draw”.
Top quality products and matching service. I got really helpful advice from day one on structural dimensions, door/window positions. guidance on all elements concerning the base etc.
Quick chats to alleviate any of my concerns – nothing was too much trouble especially from Emma and Georgia (Simply Sips dream team!)
The delivery was on time, just as they promised.
The construction team were very professional, polite, friendly and reassuring at all stages from bringing the components onto my property, to the final construction. They also treat my property with respect at all times, working safely and tidily, no mess after they had gone.
If you are thinking of having a garden room, office or Gym you couldn’t do better than going to Simply Sips. I would and already have recommended them to others.
Give them a ring, you won’t regret it.
