Outbuilding Construction Cornwall

Different Types of Outbuildings An outbuilding can simply be defined as a building that is located on your property, but one that is not directly attached to your home. There are many different types of outbuildings, as well.

• Storage sheds - These can be used to hold just about anything from lawn and garden equipment to bicycles and outdoors toys.
• Garden sheds - A garden shed is typically quite small and holds things needed to care for and maintain a garden space.
• Outhouse - An outhouse is the perfect addition for very large gardens with outdoor entertaining spaces. Believe it or not, these outdoor restrooms are making quite the comeback!
• Garages - A garage may be used to store cars, tractors, and more.
• Guest houses - A guest house may have everything a traditional home does, only in a smaller size. This is perfect for visiting family members, ageing parents, and even adolescents. It's also a great option for a rental property.

Outbuildings and Guest Houses Some homeowners are curious to discover whether they can build a multi-story or multi-room outbuilding that also serves as a guest house. While this is certainly possible, it will likely require far different permissions than a traditional outbuilding. You'll also need to consider things like electricity, plumbing, HVAC, and more as these things are vital to your guests' comfort. You can build a loft above your outbuilding with room for a small home office, or you can add a large studio-size apartment.

Cornwall Outbuilding Construction Costs: Average outbuilding prices can vary tremendously depending on the size of the building and the materials used for construction. Labour costs can affect the price you will pay for an outbuilding as well. The interior design of Cornwall outbuilding construction projects can impact the cost too. Multiple stories, heating and air conditioning, plumbing and electricity are features that will add to the final price. Many outbuildings are used for storage, and complex shelving systems used for storing items can involve additional costs. Customers can pay as much or as little as they choose when having an outbuilding constructed on their property.

Understanding Building Regulations The type of permits you'll need to build an outbuilding will depend on several things, including the size of the building, its location, and its primary use. For example, the permits required to build a functional outhouse will differ significantly from those you'll need to build a simple storage shed or a more complex guest house. When you submit your quote request, be sure to mention the type of outbuilding you're interested in adding, and your contractor can help you choose the right permit applications based on that information.
