How it works
How a Crown project runs, from your first look to installation by our own teams, and what happens after you order.

From ground survey to final installation, we manage every step
- Brochure and show-site visit
Get inspired by our brochure, then visit one of our six show sites to talk to our design consultants. Show sites →
- Design consultation
Plan size, finishes and options with a design consultant: at your home, at a show site or by video. Whether consultations are complimentary: TBC
- Will it fit?
Send us a photo or measurements of your garden and we'll prepare a scaled drawing showing your building in place.
- Ground test survey
A ground test site survey is required for garden rooms. It determines whether ground screws or a traditional concrete base suit your site. The survey is £280 incl. VAT.
- Planning
Planning permission is not normally required, as most of our buildings are designed to fall within permitted development. Step 2: Planning →
- Foundations and utilities
For garden rooms, groundworks, plumbing, electricity, water and waste can all be quoted for and taken care of, for a seamless project from start to finish.
- Made to order, delivered and installed
Made to order in our UK workshops and installed by our own specialist teams. Delivery and installation are included within 100 miles of our Oxfordshire workshops; a surcharge applies beyond. Typically 1 to 2 days for small and medium gazebos; a medium standard garden room (5m × 3.5m) takes about 2–3 weeks. Lead times from order: TBC
What happens after you order
There is nothing to log in to. At each milestone we email you: what has just happened, what happens next, and who to call.
