Written by the company

The original inspiration for Oeco Garden Rooms came from the owner's own personal experience at working from home. The company was initially founded to satisfy the growing number of people who work from home and the essential need for more space and a separate working environment away from the main house. Oeco Garden Rooms is a family run business and we have been manufacturing and installing our garden rooms and gardens offices since 2006.

It took three visits to get the room…

It took three visits to get the room habitable, the initial build had faults which were mostly corrected.

The door is faulty, I was told that I had to correct it myself, but upon employing a local expert I found out that one of the hinges is faulty and the door itself was mis-aligned and the top is bowed.

And now two of the three lights fitted do not work !!

Reply from Oeco Garden Rooms

Dear Dom, thank you for your review. As previously mentioned and confirmed in our emails, the door in question was in working order (locking & closing) when installed in December 22. The door was also in good working order when our team members visited site on 31st January 23.

When you emailed through and reported that you were struggling to lock the door in April 23, we confirmed, as per our terms and conditions that door hinge adjustments were not covered by any guarantees. This is industry standard for garden room companies and indeed, window and door installation companies.

As confirmed, all hinged doors can move slightly over time due to temperature change and gravity. This can make the door difficult to shut or lock.
All of our doors can easily be adjusted to realign them, with an Allen key. We provided the instructions and information on how to adjust the doors and could of carried out a walk through video call to help you adjust the single door.
From our correspondence, we understand that you employed a local 'handy person' to adjust the door for you, the door then dropped again, meaning that you had to call out the person again at cost.

Please note that your electrical items are still within warranty, if you could kindly email us with the issues and confirm which lights you have a problem with, we will rectify this as soon as possible for you.
Best Regards

Honest, knowledgeable staff with a high quality product.

We've had our garden room for several months now and coming into the colder weather it is an absolute pleasure to have such a well built and insulated space. Apart from the quality of the build, what sets this company apart is the way they involved us during the build to make something truly bespoke. We unwittingly bought an awkward internal door and the team made it fit without a complaint, in fact with a cheerful can-do attitude! There was a real sense from all the staff that they were there to help. We couldn't recommend Oeco more highly.

Oeco Garden Room

We recently had a garden room built by Oeco & can’t speak highly enough about the experience from start to finish. Their professionalism & workmanship was faultless & we are delighted with the end result !

A company to be trusted

In 2012 we had a garden room built by OECO. It looked great - exactly as advertised. The quality has stood the test of time and the one problem we have had has been addressed under the company's 10-year guarantee. The panelling around the veranda showed signs of rot a year or two ago due to being in contact with the ground, so we reported this in September 2020 and received a prompt reply promising remedial action. Due to COVID this could not happen immediately and as soon as measures started to get relaxed we chased OECO up for a progress report. Shortly afterwards we were contacted by a technician who arrange a date and time to visit. Gabriel Stefan duly arrived after a 300-mile drive north and within 2 hours had cheerfully replaced all the affected panelling, ensuring there was an air gap left between the bottom of the panels and the ground. I could hardly have wished for better after-sales service.

Terrible experience

Terrible experience. The initial build was ok, and the office looked great. But the foundations were not dug deeply enough, so our beautiful looking garden office slowly sinks and twists deeper into the ground. The door no longer close. The floor slopes. We've been in discussion with oeco for almost 4 years about fixing it. Initially they agreed (just kept delaying), and finally refused.

What they delivered was totally not fit for purpose.
