Description
Forest Xtend 3.0 Insulated Garden Office
As more and more of us are working from home, the need for a quiet, dedicated home office is becoming urgent for people all over the UK. You can achieve the perfect work/life balance by opting for a garden home office. The Xtend 3.0 from Forest offers just about everything you could need in a home office. It boasts a clean, contemporary look, it stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter, it is surprisingly easy to build and, most importantly, it costs a fraction of the price of a traditional home extension. With an opening side window as part of the package too (you'd be surprised how many similar products don't include one!) regulating the internal temperature and airflow is a breeze. Available in a range of sizes, there is certain to be an Xtend to suit your needs.
As if that wasn't enough, Forest can deliver the Xtend within 3-4 weeks of you placing an order, so you can be up and running in your new home office in next to no time! If you have a little more time to work with, the delivery time increases only to 5-6 weeks if you want to take advantage of Forest's professional assembly service. By choosing assembly, you can sit back, relax, and have your new workspace built for you. If you can find someone to build a conventional extension on your home within 6 weeks at the same price or better than the Xtend, we suggest you take them up on the offer! Please be aware, however, that these timescales may be extended during peak times of the year or due to unforeseen circumstances.
Why Buy an Xtend?
If you have found yourself trying to work in a cramped spare bedroom while the sound of the washing machine provides a constant distraction, or perhaps you have had one instance too many of the family pet or one of your children making a surprise appearance in a video meeting, the Xtend could be precisely what you need to ensure distractions are a thing of the past. Not to mention, having a garden home office would mean no more commuting, more time spent at home with loved ones, and more space freed up in your house for other uses. Plus, with a 15-year structural guarantee, you can rely on your new home office to provide valuable working space for many years to come. Join the revolution today and see exactly why more and more people are choosing to have an office in their garden!
Don’t have a desk job or can’t work from home? No problem! The Insulated Garden Office could provide you with the perfect space to set up for a variety of different business types, or could just as easily be used as somewhere to spend your leisure time. We regularly see garden buildings such as the Xtend used by beauticians, nail technicians, dog groomers, massage therapists, personal trainers, and more! And of course, the Xtend is not just a building perfectly suited to work use. It could be just the space you need to set up an art studio, a music room, a fitness suite or even simply a quiet spot for rest and relaxation in the tranquil setting of your garden. The possibilities are almost limitless, but you may take extra inspiration from checking out our product images, showing some of the great ways you can take advantage of the Xtend.

The base should be either a solid concrete surface or concrete slabs. It is important to have a clearance of 18 inches (450mm) around the base, providing sufficient working space for the installers to access all areas of the structure.
