Not all Garden Rooms are alike – what sets Galway Garden Rooms apart from our competitors:

Superior Insulation

Thermal bridging can be responsible for 30% of heat loss from a home. This occurs when the insulated stud walls are in direct contact with the inside and outside of the wall. In such cases the insulation in broken and this results in the internal heat traveling out on cold days, resulting in unwanted heat loss.

The product that Galway Garden Rooms offer is far superior to other products. Our rooms are full wrapped in high-density external insulation which is unbroken and therefore has no thermal bridging. Our Garden Rooms are encased in a continuous wrap of insulation on walls, floors and ceilings.

How does External Insulation Work?

External insulation involves fixing high-density specialized external insulation materials to the outer surface of the wall. The insulation is then covered with a special render to provide weather resistance. A steel or fibre-glass mesh is embedded in this render to provide strength and impact resistance. The is then covered with a plaster pre-coloured to your choice e.g. to match with your home.

Composite decking

Composite Decking is the fastest-growing wood decking alternative on the market. This strong, durable alternative offers all the aesthetic benefits of timber with none of the many disadvantages in terms of maintenance and longevity. 

 Composite lumber is a material that is a mixture of wood fiber, plastic, and some type of binding agent. These ingredients are put together to form a material that is denser, stronger, and heavier than wood alone, a wood-plastic composite.

Advantages of composite Decking:

• There is zero maintenance as there is no need to treat, paint or seal the decking
• It is weather resistant
• It is moisture resistant as it does not absorb water
• Safer, less slippery surface
