Outbuildings guidance

What size electrical supply does a garden room need?

A garden office with a laptop and lights needs something different from a workshop, gym or heated summer house.
By Truvo Electrical Solutions

List fixed heating, sockets, lighting, computers, tools, pumps and any equipment that may be added later. The design should reflect realistic simultaneous use.

What to consider

Distance, voltage drop, cable route, ground type, building construction, earthing and protective arrangements affect the solution. Agree who handles trenching and reinstatement.

Warning signs and safe next steps

Photographs and measurements help an initial assessment, but long routes, machinery, hot tubs or uncertain earthing should be surveyed before a formal quotation.

What helps Truvo assess the job?

Provide a clear description of the problem or planned work, the Sheffield postcode, access details and safe photographs of finished equipment only. Never remove a screwed cover or expose electrical parts for a photograph.

From initial advice to a quotation

An online enquiry can establish the likely scope, but a formal quotation follows review of the property details and any necessary inspection or testing. Every installation is different, so final design and price must reflect the actual conditions.
