The Service
What Is Garden Office Electrics?
Garden office electrics covers bringing a safe, adequate supply to a detached garden room — power sockets, lighting, heating and data — usually via a dedicated, armoured cable and a small consumer unit.
Because a garden office is habitable space, the supply must be sized for the loads (including a heater), all circuits RCD-protected, and the installation certified. Data cabling is often run alongside power for reliable home-working.

Undersized supply
An existing supply to the office trips when a heater and lights are on together.

Tell us about itWhat's Included
What's Typically Involved
- Assessment of the supply route and the office's load requirements
- Routing of correctly rated, armoured cable from the house
- Installation of a small consumer unit with RCD protection
- Sockets, lighting and data as required
- Testing and certification of the new installation
Why It Matters
Why Professional Electrical Work Matters
A garden office is a habitable, often heated space, so the supply must be sized for the real loads. An undersized cable trips when a heater runs and risks overheating.
As a new, separate circuit feeding habitable space, the work is notifiable and must be RCD-protected and certified — so it's safe for everyday use.
Costs & Pricing
Costs & What Affects Pricing
Pricing for electrical work depends on the job. Here are the factors that typically affect the cost of this service.
- The distance from the house to the office
- The loads involved (sockets, lighting, heating)
- Whether data cabling is included
- Whether a consumer unit and new circuits are needed
- The cable routing (buried vs surface)
A simple socket-and-light supply costs less than a full office with heating and data. Tell us what the office needs and we can help.
