Quality Materials and Design

Basebox by Green Retreats is a fully insulated garden room designed to offer a cost-effective solution for creating additional space at home. It is built using carefully selected materials chosen for their strength, durability and long-term performance.

Every element of the building, from the structural framework to the exterior cladding, is engineered to provide a solid, permanent feel and reliable everyday use.

Doors and Windows

All doors and windows in the Basebox range are manufactured from steel reinforced uPVC. Insurance grade multi point locking systems are fitted as standard to provide security and peace of mind.

Customers can choose between uPVC French doors or sliding doors, depending on their preferred layout.

Glazing

All windows and doors are fitted with Pilkington K Optiwhite extra clear double glazing. The glazing is argon filled and low emissivity coated, incorporating a Planitherm layer and Swisspacer bar to improve thermal performance.

This glazing system helps maintain comfortable internal temperatures and supports year-round use.

Walls and Insulation

Wall sections are manufactured in house using eco-friendly materials. Each wall features a 9mm white MDF internal board combined with 75mm eco polymer foam insulation to deliver excellent thermal efficiency.

The exterior is finished in a treated recycled composite cladding made from sawmill by-products. This cladding is resistant to rot and decay.

Please note: the exterior composite cladding requires painting within the first six months to seal the surface. This allows customers to personalise the colour and finish of their building.

Flooring

The Basebox floor is elevated above ground level to reduce the risk of rising damp and promote air circulation. The flooring system includes dense 80mm polyurethane insulation for thermal performance.

A 1mm powder coated steel layer is applied to both the top and underside of the floor structure, providing strength, durability and protection from weather conditions.

Roofing

The roof is constructed using an 80mm insulated steel panel system, reinforced with a 1mm powder coated steel layer. An additional 0.5mm galvanised steel sheet increases structural strength and durability.

The roof design incorporates a slight slope to allow effective water runoff to the rear guttering system and downpipe.

Guttering

A 4-inch-wide guttering system is fitted as standard to manage rainfall effectively and help protect the building structure.

Eco Friendly Construction

Green Retreats is an eco-friendly and carbon neutral company. Basebox garden rooms are designed and manufactured in the UK using sustainable construction methods and materials wherever possible.

All buildings are produced in a solar powered UK factory, and five trees are planted for every tree used in construction as part of Green Retreats’ environmental commitment.
