Our Environmentally friendly garden buildings serve many purposes with a home gym and fitness suite certainly proving popular. Creating a dedicated space for home workouts or even a personal training business saves the otherwise cumbersome movement of equipment whilst creating an efficient, safe, planned and professional environment.
Our home gyms and garden room gyms are a great option whether you’re trying to adopt a better lifestyle or if you’re someone who is tired of spending time driving to and from the gym.
Whether a fully equipped garden room gym, yoga retreat, pilates space or dance studio we can design and style your garden building to suit your exact needs!
Benefits of a home gym
It’s all yours
You’ll have your own space and equipment set up how you like it, without the distractions of a normal gym.
An investment
As well as adding value to your home, a garden room as a home gym will save you money on costly gym membership fees.
Save time
With a 30-second walk to your garden room home gym, you can save time and money on your commute to the gym.
24/7 365
Without the risk of lockdowns, you can work out whenever you choose, day or night, throughout the year.
Can my garden gym be soundproofed?
Super-insulated walls, roof and flooring help reduce heating bills by stabilising temperatures whilst providing great acoustic insulation in your garden room gym. Ideal if you wish to avoid the neighbours hearing that workout soundtrack.
How do I stop my garden gym from getting hot?
Our Designer can help with light ingress through windows and doors and their orientation to the potential heat and distraction of direct sunlight. Our innovative internal blinds can assist here along with our air conditioning option. Whether your garden room gym is for personal use or as a business, we understand that a workout needs to be a comfortable experience.
Can I have internet in my garden gym?
CAT 6 internet connections enable a perfect supply to any cameras and streaming or recording of classes.
How sturdy is a garden gym?
The Kingdom Room’s sturdy construction is well suited to gym and workout hardware too, allowing for solid fixtures. Our evenly distributed and substantial ground screws and pads are designed to withstand your most physical workouts (we do upgrade the number of ground here to be sure).
Is a garden gym a good investment?
If run as a business, there may be tax savings in the cost of your building and fixtures. We can give you guidance, but always advise that you speak to your Accountant. If ran purely as a business premises, this could in real terms save you thousands of pounds on your purchase price.
Tip: Ask your Accountant about Capital Gains Tax too. It is best to prepare now to ensure that a future house sale does not leave you with an unexpected CGT bill.
Multifunctional home gym
As well as just a home gym, we can design your garden building as a shared space for alternative uses. This may include a sauna or a hot tub for relaxing post-workout, incorporating a TV or projector screen for entertainment.
Our floors can be adapted to support hot tubs and pools, so most garden room buildings need nothing more than our standard and substantially supported bases.
Home Infra Red saunas are popular, not just for their therapeutic benefits, timber garden buildings appreciate the removal of humidity that would otherwise cause issues to the interior and structural wood.
Home gym features
Our garden gyms can be built to a size that suits you, depending on how much space you need and the available space in your garden. However, keep in mind that if your garden gym is larger than 30m2 in floor area and higher than 2.5 meters you’ll require planning permission.
Walls, floor and ceilings are already substantial but can have additional fixing points added for heavy equipment fixings like a boxing bag and TRX hooks.
Our mirror walls use a trim system allowing for future movement (if you wish) with compression points behind and safety backing to a thick mirror for optimum safety.
We offer air conditioning and heating systems, heat retaining and solar rejecting assets, and internal blinds for a controllable interior temperature and privacy in your garden gym.
Why chose Kingdom Rooms?
We learnt from the past. Timber buildings of a bygone era 400 years ago elevated timber off the damp, cold ground to help many of them last until today. Our ‘No Concrete’ base systems do exactly the same.
We have several buildings on display so you can see and learn how different buildings can last longer and outperform others. No professionally edited photos creating a hard-to-follow image.
We normally design your building whilst sitting in your home. We create a full visual of your garden building combined with a fixed price quotation for your peace of mind.
Our buildings are created with what we believe are the lowest carbon footprints you will find. Most by-products are recycled and have a Made in Britain accreditation.
OK, our buildings are as solid as you will find but you will find us flexible. Doing a job properly means we will not cut corners and will not be ‘cheap’. We have however put much effort into reducing costs and waste and are certainly competitively priced.
Case study
The process
Show site
Our customers tell us that a visit to our show site is invaluable. Seeing actual buildings beats images on the web hands down and we can show you the options available. You also see the differences between building methods, how buildings perform differently, variations on lifespan and why costs vary. Even if you order elsewhere, this guidance can be invaluable.
Site design visit
If you like what you see and you ask, we can then visit your home to see the site and from your ‘likes’ we can usually design and price your building whilst we sit with you. Seeing and hearing your exact needs helps us build to your specification or budget whilst collecting unique site data should you wish to proceed.
Order & survey
Our fixed price quotation contains much detail, vital to sharing with our whole team once you order. Once a deposit is received we return to the site to carry out a detailed survey and ‘stake out’ your building location. Our team will then communicate key stages of the build in more detail on the ‘Procedures’ page of our website for guidance. Stage payments will be requested at key points with a balance paid at the end.
Installation
We try to deliver materials in advance to allow for a prompt (and sometimes early) start. Generally, we start 4-6 weeks from order and our build time is around 2 weeks. We take steps to reduce disturbance to your household and property with our office and team on-site communicating and involving you at key stages. Your 10-year Insurance Underwritten guarantee details are released for registration once the final payment is received.
