A great two experiences with JML Garden Rooms. Our Charity relied on fair prices, quick and efficient service and staff who were easy to communicate with. We will certainly return to JML Garden Rooms if we acquire any more funding for new builds!

We really love our JML garden room, which also gets called our sitooterie or summerhouse. Scotland is a breathtakingly beautiful country, but the climate here means that it is often too cold to sit out in the garden, especially in the evening. Our garden room has changed that. It is warm and welcoming; a sanctuary even when there is a cold wind. It is a place that we can go for respite, a little five-minute holiday at the end of a busy day. We can sit with a drink, or a cuppa and unwind, on our own or with neighbours or friends, for a chat or just to appreciate the greenery and listen to the sounds of nature. On warmer evenings we like to sit with the doors open, to enjoy the fresh air and fully appreciate the birdsong, but on the colder evenings we can close the doors and enjoy the warmth. 
We have a Lowlander 1, which is perfect for us. It can sit four very comfortably or six at a squeeze. It is extremely well made with high quality materials and craftmanship. It is heavily insulated and the large glass doors mean that it benefits from 'solar gain' and is generally very warm even on a cold day. We keep a little electric fan heater in it, which means that even on a winter evening it will be toasty warm in a few minutes. 
Our garden room is also a thing of beauty. It is surrounded on two sides by decking and it really sets off our garden and complements our house. The cedar cladding is a lovely colour and we have opted to preserve this with the Osmo Oil which JML recommend for the purpose. We look forward to enjoying our Garden Room for many years to come...

Full marks to JML Garden Rooms for delivering an excellent garden office for us, on time and to budget. Fantastic build quality - tested thoroughly in the recent storms - and finish. You do get what you pay for, and we are delighted with it.

We’ve been in our JML Garden Rooms extension for 6 weeks now and still can’t believe just how incredible it is! The process from our first tentative conversation until completion took just over a year, but from start to finish the JML team have delivered every step of the way: particularly helped along the journey by Claire, Jakki, Ross and a fantastic group of experienced and friendly joiners, and other tradespeople. Communication was excellent throughout the process, requests accommodated without fuss, and any queries dealt with quickly and efficiently. There was a definite pride taken in their work by the joiners and a real attention given to even small details. The end result is all the more remarkable given the groundworks started in early November with the extension completed just before the Christmas holiday! The weather was truly awful at times, especially for the groundworks team and roofers, despite which all the tradespeople worked away without complaint. Throughout, they were respectful for the neighbours and our properties and were at pains to keep things tidy and protected as much as possible. JML project management with all trades was seamless and we had many a comment from friends and neighbours about how hard working the team seemed to be, and how speedy and efficient the whole process was. A testament to a job really well done are the wonderful comments we get when people see the extension for the first time! We went with JML Garden Rooms based on their reputation and being a local firm. We have been delighted with their work and ethos, and would recommend them in a heartbeat.

Matthews, Dunning, Extension

Fantastic company, can't rate them highly enough. From initial contact through to delivery of our Isopod, JML were excellent.

Bennett, Bedford, Isopod

We had an office pod installed in July last year. Overall it has been an excellent investment - as was considerably less expensive than similar products from other companies. We had a cat3 internet cable included as part of the installation which has worked brilliantly, and I have have worked in the pod full-time throughout the summer and winter. In the summer it gets warm, but the large sliding door means it is easy to cool down and we have installed blinds (not part of JML installation) to prevent glare. We used a small electric radiator in the winter to get the temperature up during the day, but the room retains the heat really well and once the sun hits the windows the radiator isn't really needed anyway. With the door closed, it keeps the sound from the neighbour's dog out pretty well. Installation was great, and took about a week to get most of the room up with interior decorating taking another few days after that. We got this room as we were expecting a baby and we wanted a separate space where one parent could work whilst the other did the childcare. It has been perfect for that.

Pollard, Edinburgh, Office Pod

We were very happy with the whole process from design to completion of our wonderful garden room. JML were very flexible during the design process, as we finalised all the different features and options we wanted. The tradesmen were always very professional, arriving on time and keeping everything quite tidy, despite the significant amount of works.

Reynolds, Edinburgh, Bespoke Lowlander

I love my IsoPod – it’s the perfect size for my home office and the whole process was so easy.  It’s really well insulated and has been cosy, even during the recent cold spell.  The team gave me a full pack of information and have been really quick to respond to any questions; fantastic customer service both before and after installation.

Cupar, IsoPod

Thank you for all your hard work.  We are delighted with the room.

Bridge of Allan

We are delighted with our completed garden room, hideout and garage, which were finished pretty much on schedule despite days of extremely rainy conditions.  A testimony to the work of your on-site team.

Lundie

Excellent job, which restored my faith in builders. It’s been a great pleasure.

Walker, Edinburgh

The team at JML have been very efficient and professional - I have enjoyed dealing with them all and have a lot of faith in the quality of build, the materials used and the attention to detail shown in the build - thanks to all from a very happy customer.

Dunblane

Our Garden Room is a really great addition to our home. We couldn’t be happier.

Kind, Edinburgh

JML are quite simply a top notch company. Easy to deal with, completely professional at all times, turn up when they say they will, complete projects when they say they will and keep you informed along the way. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. And the final product is outstanding, so pleased with the look and quality. Thanks very much JML!

Anonymous

I couldn’t be happier with my garden salon and my clients love it too! The whole JML team were great to deal with and kept me well informed throughout the entire process. The guys on-site were very considerate of my garden and left it tidy each evening. It has given me a very tranquil space to work from.

Bain - Auchterarder

JML delivered a fabulous garden room, with outstanding service from start to finish! We chose JML because of the limited groundworks required and their willingness to deal with tricky access to the garden through the house. Also we were able to customise the room to better suit the space and our needs - we increased the length of the room, added skylights and extended the decking area. Planning and logistics of delivery were handled by JML superbly and the on-site build team were brilliant (very tidy and the dog loved them!). Although completion of the cladding was delayed due to supply problems, we were kept up to date with progress and able to use the room in the meantime. Everything was finished meticulously and is of a very high quality. The finished room is even better than we had envisaged.

CCM, Edinburgh

I have just had a Lowlander garden room installed by JML. From start to finish I have been so impressed by their team and their product. Everyone has been helpful and professional, tailoring the service, making it as customer focused as possible and making sure they deliver to timescales. The room itself is fantastic - the materials are of the highest quality - I think it will be amazing to work in. I love it!

Sue, Edinburgh

Garden room planned and installed with JML.  Result is a finely finished warm and cosy room which we are using as an art studio and study.  Everyone is very pleased with our garden room. Few snags very quickly spotted and rectified by the team.

Glasgow

JML built a wonderful garden room for us and we are absolutely delighted with it.  The quality of workmanship and materials is excellent.  All snagging was dealt with quickly and efficiently.  The end product is first class with a luxurious feel. It is very well designed and blends in beautifully with the trees in the garden.  Jakki's communication with us throughout the whole process was great.  She was friendly, patient and helpful, even when we made changes to the design.  I have no hesitation in recommending JML and would certainly use them again if we ever needed another garden room!

MacKay - Newtonmore

From start to finish, the customer service was exemplary.  We couldn't be happier with the end result.  It's clear to see how the care and attention shown by Jakki and the tradespeople who crafted the build is reflected in the materials, details and overall quality of the outdoor office.  I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.  Althoughly slightly more expensive than other companies, I think it was more than worth the extra cost.  The process was stress free and the builders were respectful to us and our neighbours.

Bell - Edinburgh

I have worked with JML on several occasions and it was only right for them to do our garden office for our architectural practice.  The entire team were fantastic; thanks to Jakki for her communication, to Ross's expertise on site.  The project was completed within 4 weeks - unbelievable.  I have recommended JML and JML Garden Rooms to clients and friends already and will contine to do so!  Cheers JML.

Lees - Tullibody

I heard about JML by word of mouth and was very impressed by the commitment of the entire team, from the first site visit to handing over the keys.  Everyone was cheerful, professional, well informed about the project and kept me up to date on progress.  The specification of the build was excellent and was to a standard of quality control that is not often found these days.

Aylott - Dunning

Excellent company and excellent service from start to finish.  The final product is great.  Compared with other building contractors we've been involved with, JML are a cut above.  They do what they say they'll do, in the timeframe they say, for the cost quoted.

Hughes - Portabello

I am happy with the whole process of building a garden room with JML.  They have been helpful at every stage of the project and particularly with the rather awkward access arrangements to bring the materials to the bottom of the garden.  The team worked very hard to deliver the room to the highest standard.

Turley, Edinburgh

JML have built the most perfect garden studio for me facing south over our neighbouring golf course, with underfloor heating, a kitchenette and generous sliding windows.  I can't wait to landscape the garden around it and as an artist am settling into whole days of undisturbed creativity.  Jakki Cosgrove masterminded the project with infectious enthusiasm from start to finish and the JML construction team worked tirelessly through challenging weather conditions to finish on schedule.  I could not recommend JML more highly.

Lowlander 3, Rosewell

Stunning product, quality workmanship, excellent project management, and customer service of the highest order . Best in the business when it comes to Garden Rooms

Clark, Haddington

JML have recently built us a Lowlander garden room which we are using as a gym. They were extremely professional in all aspects of the planning and construction, especially given some of the challenges of Covid during the whole process. The onsite team were amazing, working in some extremely difficult weather conditions and always left the site tidy. We are really pleased with the end result and it is the perfect space to use our gym equipment which had previously been housed in the garage.

Bespoke Lowlander 3, Haddington

It was an absolute pleasure working with you and your team.  We have very high standards here and I have been nothing but impressed with the way your guys go about their daily tasks and how they respond to any questions or requests.  We will landsape very nicely and it's going to look awesome. 

Links Golf, St. Andrews

JML Garden Rooms did exactly what they said they would do and exactly when they would do it, and at the price quoted.  The two men doing the building were efficient, polite and helpful; they worked extremely long hours and paid great attention to every detail.  The electricians and the painter employed by the company were equally impressive and professional.  The office staff of JML were always helpful and ready to answer questions.  I would happily recommend the firm to anyone (and have done so already).

Morris - Argyll

"JML's philosophy includes belief in excellence and quality at every step of the process and that is reflected in the finished product. Our garden room is beautiful, perfectly constructed, with top quality finishes, from the triple-glazed doors, to the slate roof, the wood flooring and the interior decor. Through the entire process JML kept in regular contact with us to check we were happy with progress, listened to our comments and were always positive, attentive and professional. After having had two house extensions built in the last 10 or so years, it was finally a joy to work with true professionals who get it not just right, but spot on, first time - and on budget. We would wholeheartedly recommend JML to anyone - and do!”

Penman, Edinburgh

“I was really impressed by the JML team. It was obvious that they were a really profes-sional organisation and that was evident by the quality and dedication of the small team who delivered and built my garden room. The product is absolutely first class, I am really delighted with it and there has never been an issue with either the quality of the product or the workmanship. If you are looking for a garden room that is built to the same standards as a really good quality home and will last, look no further than JML”.

Howie, Kilmarnock

"For you and your team to hit your estimated build costs at every turn and to do it before deadline was a real credit to your organisation and efficiency and a massive relief to ourselves. We could not have asked for better building contractors. John was so patient and tolerant of my crazy plans and last minute alterations to the house."

Sproson, St. Andrews

“JML Garden Rooms were excellent from start to finish. We got in touch with them following a friend's recommendation and were delighted with the service and quality of build. From the initial consultation to arranging planning permission to building a fully decorated garden room in 2 and a half weeks, JML Garden Rooms were professional, helpful and reliable. We would strongly recommend them”.

Sutcliffe, Edinburgh

“We arranged for JML to build a lodge in our garden as a granny annexe - from start to finish it was a wonderful experience with a professional and efficient team.  The end product is to a very high standard and we just love everything about it.  We would have no hesitation in recommending this fabulous company to anyone looking for any of the builds JML offer.”

Kynoch, Bonnybridge

“JML provided a garden room for us as an extension to our house in order that my disabled wife could leave her care home and return home. The company undertook all our requirements and completed the works in a very professional manner, keeping us informed at every stage. The specification and quality of the product as well as the workmanship was of the highest order. Thoroughly recommended.”

Morey, Auchterarder

“We had a great experience with JML Garden Rooms from start to finish. We are abso-lutely delighted with our garden room which we have fitted out as a gym, and it gets so much use by all members of our family. Every member of the JML team was a pleasure to deal with. 5-star service and great quality product.”

Johnstone, Bearsden

“We asked JML to price a garden room for us last year. From the first meeting until the building was completed, the customer/contractor relationship was excellent throughout. The quality of the work is excellent, and all the personnel responded to queries very quickly, followed by discussion to find the best way forward.  I would highly recommend this company to anyone who would like to have a very nice addition to their property.”

Rigal, Mull

“We chose JML for our garden room following meeting them at a Homebuilding event in Edinburgh and we are more than happy with our decision. We were kept up to date all through the process which was painless. The builders turned up on time, were courteous and sympathetic with us and our garden and left a very clean site when finished. We had a couple of minor snags which were attended to immediately and we now enjoy spending time in the garden in all weathers. 

I couldn't praise them highly enough.”

Gracie, Kingsbarns

“I simply cannot fault JML Garden Rooms. The process was so smooth and professional. Everyone on the team had superb communication skills with each other and me. I was never in the dark about the build, timeline or who was arriving when to work on my studio. Kind, humorous, efficient and just good at their jobs. Any snagging dealt with immediately and with a smile. And my studio, it’s my favourite place in the world. Warm, snug, waterproof in the winter and in the summer, I open all the doors and it’s heaven. Thank you for making what could have been a nightmare project into something actually pleasurable and exciting.”

Stewart, Colinton

"I am the proud owner of a JML garden room and I use the space for my art studio which has also been hijacked for studying too. Having fitted a television and internet, it has become a truly purposeful room that all the family can enjoy. The tradesmen are first class and their attention to detail is commendable. I thoroughly enjoyed working with JML and all decisions were always discussed with ourselves before proceeding with the work. It was a step by step assurance that we were getting exactly what we wanted. I can highly recommend this company for being accurate with cost, great craftsmanship, attention to detail, and for the personal touch."

Sommerville, Auchterarder

“JML Garden Rooms recently designed and constructed an 'eco' themed garden room/office at my home in Fife, Scotland. The entire team were very professional, friendly, communicative and creative throughout the planning and build process. I would highly recommend JML Garden Rooms to other potential customers.” 

Birnie, Fife

“JML were asked to build a Garden Room in the trees by my house. From the first visit, the advice given, the clear quotation, the team that built the house, the materials used and the finished job were exceptional. This was a project very well done from start to finish, with no faults other than the odd snagging issue which was dealt with speedily and professionally.  The finished job surpassed expectations AND under budget AND on time. It doesn't get better!! Thank you JML for a wonderful Garden Room which is used more than I ever imagined and worth every penny. No one ever regretted paying for quality..."

Bruce, Perthshire

“I found JML by searching Google for a SIPS Garden Annexe and I emailed several companies for quotes. JML emailed me a quote the next day and I was immediately impressed by their service. However, I arranged to visit the company headquarters in Auchterarder to see one of their Garden Rooms. I met John Langley and the architect, and I was confident that they would provide me with a great Garden Annexe and within a fairly short timescale. 

They started on time and finished on time and the building is of the highest quality both in workmanship and fittings. It has been much admired. They did everything I asked for and more. Thank you JML Garden Rooms”

Burns, Strathdon

"We are really pleased with our garden room (now art studio) - the room itself and the workmanship erecting it are of excellent quality. A neat and tidy job was done with great attention to detail.  Our lock needed tweaking after the project was finished and they had someone out immediately to sort the problem, we were very impressed with their after-sale service.”

Castells, Edinburgh

“JML provided me with an excellent service throughout the entire process of building a garden office for me. The quality of the build itself was outstanding and delivered ahead of schedule. The team on the ground provided practical solutions to any challenges presented and were able to accommodate all of my bespoke requests around internal detail and electrics. I faced a challenge with the ever unhelpful BT people and the guys working for JML provided the solution without fuss and got me connected where BT could not. Great job throughout and I would whole heartedly recommend them.”

Kettles, Dundee

"JML built a Lowlander 2 garden room in our garden. They completed the job to the highest standard and were professional and helpful throughout the process. The finished garden room serves as an office space, guest bedroom and therapy room for our daughter. The JML team also did the decking in the garden for us, which required anti-slip ramps and disabled access. We are very happy with our garden room and would recommend this company to a friend without hesitation."
