Have you ever considered building your garden studio, assembling it yourself in your garden, instead of having it delivered by our company, ready to live in? It’s a feat, a real medal to be won. But, like any coin, there are two sides to it. Let’s analyze these two sides a bit.
At first glance, we see in all their splendor the two great advantages: the satisfaction of seeing your studio at the end made by your buts, and above all a saving that can reach up to 30% of the total price.
The disadvantages seem already at this moment distant and weak. However, this ambitious project is not for everyone. Not for me, for example… “ Self-construction for dummies » Isn’t in bookstores yet, I just looked for it.
But what is ultimately the self-construction of your studio, and what is the turnkey service?
Let’s say you have already chosen the garden studio template on our site. You have taken a good look at the news and especially the image… The turnkey service is, ultimately, the studio you see in the photo right in your garden. Ready to receive your friends, of course after having previously settled the external connections, the furniture (which, by the way, can be delivered as an option by our company), the concrete pads and the junctions in the electrical panel).
The garden studio kit, or self-construction, is a large package that you receive in your yard, containing the wooden frame, the Betonyp, the rock wool insulation, the vapor barrier films and rainscreen, battens and counter-battens, parquet, paneling, placo and all other materials, to which we add of course a diagram that will help you assemble your kub, just like a Lego games.
This project requires, no doubt, a full-time personal involvement, which leads, we do not hide from you, to sacrifices such as the renunciation of your hobbies and your family life. Budget planning is extremely important to ultimately be a plus and not a minus. It’s true, you can save on some labor costs, but it’s also true that it’s almost impossible to receive credit from a financial institution. You must, therefore, plan your budget very well in advance, to avoid unpleasant surprises.
And it is not only the planning of the budget that is in order, but a whole global planning, a planning of the works for the project of the assembly of your garden studio. Your skills in the field, essential by the way, are not sufficient without the right subcontractors and without friends as competent as yourself. In any case, beer with your teammates at the end of the day is always the best, especially after a successful job.
One of the most important aspects to consider before making your choice is, in our view, responsibility. In the case of self-construction, you will be held responsible for the quality, because you take on the project of assembling your garden studio. Of course, in case you choose a turnkey garden studio, our company offers a ten-year guarantee.
Ultimately, a kit garden studio is an interesting project for those with building skills, but it is a time-consuming project. You should consider giving up your work and family obligations for at least four hours a day, up to eight hours a day if necessary.
