Garden Gym with Hot Tub Canopy in East Sussex

Our client wanted to maximise the space at the end of their garden, and were looking for a building to fulfil all of their requirements. They knew they wanted it to house their gym equipment but also wanted a relaxation area for after gym sessions and for entertaining. They had a hot tub which they wanted to use all year round and we designed a room with a canopy under which their hot tub could stand.

They decided on a roomy 6m x 3.65m main room with an additional 3m x 3.65m canopy to house their hot tub. In order to get the maximum inside head height our clients rejected the usual pent roof covering in favour of the Firestone EPDM roof, which also offered them the lowest maintenance option possible.

They chose to colour match the UPVC sliding doors to the exterior Medite Tricoya Extreme (MTX) cladding, trims and fascias and selected a modern and very popular 'RAL 7016 Anthracite' colour. The UPVC windows were also finished in matching 'Anthracite' UPVC, along with our Fire wall to rear. With no timber on the outside this project comes with a 10 year full guarantee, a 30-50 year life expectancy and the lowest maintenance possible.

'RAL 7004 Signal Grey' was chosen for the paint under their canopy - so that it wasn't too dark underneath. They also decided to upgrade on the standard internal wall covering and chose v-200 MDF which they arranged to paint after our installation. The laminate flooring in 'Satin Oak' complements the colours perfectly.

Along with the base, electrics, final painting and colour matched MTX fencing, the client also fitted two TVs to mirror each other; one in the room and one in the canopy so they could watch the TV from the hot tub. Along with this Gap Solutions fitted a mirrored sliding door cupboard to keep the room spotless at all times.
