Do I require membranes to protect the studio?
Yes we recommend a breathable membrane for the external wall, a damp proof membrane for the floor, which we will supply as part of the kit and a vapour membrane for the internal walls, which we do not supply.How do I run electric into my studio?
You can create a hole in the SIPs wall to run electric wires through, covering them in plumbers’ pipe to protect the insulation, then after the vapour membrane and battens are attached to the internal wall, run the wires along before applying the plasterboard.Does the studio sit straight onto the ground screws?
No, we supply a sub-frame to sit on top of the flat head screws, and our SIPs floor then sits inside the frame.Does the studio sit directly onto the concrete base?
No, we supply battens that are attached to the underside of the SIPs floor to raise the studio of the concrete slab and allow for airflow.Are the panels waterproof?
They are shower resistant, however they will need to be covered over with a waterproof sheeting if not being used straight away.Do you fit the Breathable membrane and batten?
Yes, as part of the construction we will apply the breathable membrane and battens if we are supplying it.What base type should I go for?
We recommend either a level concrete slab, the same footprint as the studio, 50mm below and 50mm above ground, or flat headed ground screws.Do you fit the EPDM rubber roof when you construct?
No, we do not fit the EPDM. You need to have your cladding fitted and the EPDM tucked over it for the finishing trims to be attached.Do you supply doors, windows and cladding?
No, we do not supply doors, windows, cladding or any internal finishes.What is the maximum footprint before I require building regulations?
The maximum footprint is 30m2, anything over that will require planning permission and structural calculations.What is the maximum height I can go before I would require planning permission?
Garden buildings do not require planning permission as long as the building is 2.5m maximum and within 2 meters of the boundary, or 3m maximum if over 2 meters away from the boundary. We always recommend checking with your local council as some areas may have special rules.Does the construction fee include delivery?
No the construction fee is just for work carried out on site, delivery of the materials is separate and will vary depending on where you are located within the country.Do I receive assembly instructions with my kit?
Yes all kits come with full assembly instructions from floor to roof.If you cannot see the answer to your question here, please give us a call on 01778 424443.
