Bespoke Garden Spaces for Derby Homeowners
Finding additional space in Derby often means choosing between an expensive traditional extension or a lightweight timber summerhouse. Adacon offers a middle ground: the P600 modular building system. These are not "converted containers" but purpose-built, steel-framed structures manufactured in our specialized facility and delivered directly to your site. Our modules are designed to feel like a seamless extension of your home, featuring full internal plastering, professional lighting, and high-performance insulation as standard.
How the P300/P400/P600 modular range Works
The versatility of our modular system makes it suitable for various property types across the East Midlands. Because each module is approximately 13m², you can choose a layout that fits your specific garden footprint. You can view our full range of garden rooms to see how they can be adapted for different purposes.
- Single Module (13m²): Ideal for a private home office or a compact therapy room. These fit comfortably in many urban gardens in areas like Chaddesden or Spondon.
- Double Module (26m²): A popular choice for garden gyms or spacious guest suites. Modules are joined side-by-side to create a wide-span internal area.
- Multi-Module and Two-Storey: For large-scale projects, such as a garden annexe or a home cinema, modules can be configured in L-shapes or stacked with internal staircases.
If you are looking to specifically create a workspace, our garden offices are configured with optimum power socket placement and data connectivity in mind.
What is Included as Standard
We believe in transparent pricing and high-quality specifications. Every P600 module delivered to Derby includes:
- Fully insulated floor, walls, and roof for year-round thermal efficiency.
- Internal walls finished with plasterboard and white emulsion.
- Laminate flooring in a choice of finishes.
- Double-glazed uPVC windows and secure external doors.
- Full electrical fit-out, including LED ceiling panels and multiple sockets.
- Exterior cladding available in various colours, which you can customise wall-by-wall using our online configurator.
Indicative Pricing for Derby Projects
While every project is unique based on your choice of windows, doors, and internal upgrades (such as WCs or air conditioning), garden room projects in the Derby area typically fall within the £15,000 to £35,000 price band. This includes the manufacture of the module and delivery to the UK mainland. It is important to note that groundworks, the preparation of a level base, and final utility connections are the responsibility of the customer and are quoted separately after a site assessment.
Delivery and Logistics in Derbyshire
Our modules are transported to Derby via major trunk roads including the M1 and A38. Because our buildings are delivered as finished units, we use heavy goods vehicles equipped with cranes (HIABs) to position the modules. Derby presents a variety of access challenges that we are experienced in navigating:
- Urban Sites: In dense residential areas like the West End or near the City Centre, we may need to coordinate road closures or utilize larger cranes if the module must be lifted over a house.
- Suburban Access: For properties in Allestree or Mickleover with side access or wide driveways, delivery is usually straightforward.
- Rural Locations: For sites in the surrounding Derbyshire countryside, we assess narrow lanes and weight-restricted bridges to ensure our transport can reach you safely.
Planning Permission in Derby
Many garden rooms fall under "Permitted Development," meaning they do not require a full planning application. However, this depends on the size of the building, its height, and its proximity to your boundary. Rules can also differ if you live in a Conservation Area or a listed building. We always recommend checking with Derby City Council or your relevant local planning authority before starting work. For larger builds or those intended as primary living accommodation, Building Regulations compliance will also be necessary.

Because our units are produced in a controlled factory environment, lead times are typically weeks rather than months. You avoid the mess and disruption of having builders on-site for extended periods. Once your base is ready, the installation of a P600 module is often completed within a single day.
