About the company

Crusoe Garden Rooms Limited was founded in 2011 and is a family business based in Nottingham. It is run by husband and wife team Trevor and Emma, with son Fred heading up the construction team. Trevor has well over 40 years experience working on various building projects. The company has completed more than 350 garden room builds throughout the UK and serves customers from Brighton to Aberdeen. It is a member of the Guild of Master Craftsmen and has public liability insurance in place. Crusoe Garden Rooms never outsources the building of its garden rooms, and each garden room is hand crafted on site by the expert team, not prefabricated.

The company uses Western Red cedar cladding and a rubber membrane roof covering. It has built home offices, music and TV recording studios, treatment rooms, home cinemas, games rooms, ceramic and art studios, business premises, children’s playrooms, home gyms, teenage pads, summer houses, pool rooms, swim spa spaces, and yoga and meditation spaces. Crusoe Garden Rooms handcrafts Western Red cedar-clad, timber-framed buildings, fully insulate, internally board, plaster, paint and floor them, and include a complete electric package.

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Crusoe Garden Rooms Limited, based on Bridgford Road in West Bridgford, Nottingham, has built a varied range of structures for its clients, including a ceramics studio, a music room designed around a grand piano, workshops, a gym, a counselling cabin and summer houses. One thing mentioned again and again is the design stage, where Trevor is named repeatedly for taking time to understand size, shape and positioning before finalising a bespoke plan.

Reviewers also highlight that every room is built on site rather than arriving pre-fabricated, which they link directly to the tailored, high-quality finish achieved. Insulation appropriate to sensitive uses, such as protecting a musical instrument, and feature lighting that extends a room's use into the evening are both mentioned. Several clients note how quickly a build progresses, frequently within about two weeks, without any apparent compromise on craftsmanship.

The on-site team, named in various reviews as Fred, Paul, Ellis and Joe, is consistently described as professional, considerate and tidy, with regular updates keeping clients informed throughout construction. Ongoing support after completion, including prompt responses to follow-up questions, is another recurring point. Value for money and the absence of unexpected additional charges are also referenced by more than one reviewer. The company's portfolio spans garden offices, studios, gyms and summer houses across Nottingham and the surrounding area.

I could not be more impressed by the product and service delivered by this niche independent company. The room represents a fabulous focal point to our garden and the project management, installation, communication and aftercare were all excellent. Ellis and Fred were a joy to have around, delivering high-quality workmanship and providing daily progress updates, and Trevor was quick to respond to any queries I had during the course of the project and was quick to come out personally to deal with a minor issue that arose post-completion. There is a real sense of the personal touch with this operation. We are delighted with our new building and have no hesitation in recommending Crusoe Garden Rooms to prospective purchasers.

Trev, Emma, Fred, and Ellis were an absolute dream to collaborate and work with. They helped us shape an idea which we had into something practical, useful in the space, and superbly built. The level of care and consideration all the way along was great and nothing was too much of an ask for them. We are very happy with the build, in terms of the materials and the finishing, both for the garden room itself and the decking. It's made an outdoor office a very real reality for us. Highly recommended.

Absolutely love our new sanctuary garden room. The workmanship was spot on, thanks the Trevor, Freddie and Ellis. Communication was great and was completed in two weeks. We have yet to furnish it, but can't wait to properly use it for dining and relaxation. We highly recommend Crusoe.

Delighted with our new garden rooms built by Trevor and his team. They will add much needed new rooms to our house and the cedar looks lovely in the garden. Communication was excellent throughout and the build quick and stress free. Thank you.

I could not be happier with my garden room/music studio which has been carefully designed and thought out by Trevor to provide necessary insulation for my grand piano. The detail is fabulous and the team with Fred and Joe were highly professional, considerate, trustworthy and reassuring. It was completed so quickly and to such a high level. I would highly recommend Trevor and Crusoe Garden Rooms.

We love our new garden room, it is exactly the space we first envisioned, a well built cedar clad room which looks fantastic in the garden! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Crusoe garden rooms as from my initial contact I was met with a reasuring knowledge from Trevor and Emma who made the decision to go ahead with the build very easy. Thanks to Paul and Fred for their hard work building the room, it was great to see every stage as it went up from the initial base frame right the way through to the finishing touches. You literally see before your eyes how well these rooms are built. Thanks again for creating a great space for us to enjoy.
