How do you build an outdoor room?!? TIC

 

[shane14]

so far, rearranging eveything atm, getting so stands and stuff

 

[inj88u]

I am thinking of building it out of timber or corrugated iron and then line the inside with insulation and weather board.

 

[AaronR]

where abouts are you located? inj88u?

Sydney near liverpool

forgot to add, its my shed, all insulated.

 

[AaronR]

I have done a few garage fit outs the most important thing is the type of insulation. roll or batt ventilation etc I work for a large shed mobb and ironically have sold a few and designed a few for fellow herpers. PM me if you want any help or design quieries.

Thanks AaronR , i am looking for a size of 4m x 4 m with a glass sliding door on the front 2m width by 1.8 high i think that is standed size. what insulation do you recomend to use. I was going to use roll. Thanks

diffinatly roll a product called glareshield or equivilant its just like heavy duty bubble wrap. Consider a higher wall height as this increase the heat envelope in the warmer months. I used whirly birds as windows can get broken and are easily seen through but you could go and get bars just really depends on your attitude to herp security there but both allow good airflow.
If you went batts the have fine fibres that may effect the herps or your respirtry systems. and of course roll the walls with the glareshield also so many people in know dont.

Thanks for the informations, you have been great help. The wall height will have to be 2.4 height. Do you have any photos of the rooms you have designed.

im the same i am getting a builder mate to build it for me, a timber frame with villa board on the outside and then insulation and then villa board lining the inside aswell. a mate that breeds reps siad for ventalation use a ceiling fan mounted on the wall.
mine will be 4m long x 2m wide by 2.1 m high.

Ceiling fans can only be mounted on the ceiling.
I would watch the 2.1 metres. Building standard heights vary but generally are 2.4 IMO
