What moves the price
- Distance from the house — a longer cable run to the garden office means more armoured cable and a longer trench.
- Materials used — armoured cable, a sub-board and outdoor fittings are bought for the garden office and add to the price.
- Trenching — digging the cable trench to the garden office across a lawn or under paving takes time, and hard ground takes longer.
- Size of the office — a larger garden office needs more sockets, lights and heating points to wire.
- Load in the office — heating, air conditioning and plenty of sockets need a heavier supply cable and a sub-board.

How to pay less
- Digging the cable trench yourself, to the depth the electrician gives you, can save a large part of the labour.
- If the garden office is not built yet, siting it closer to the house shortens the cable run and the trench.
- Having the electrics run while the garden office is being built, before the walls are lined, saves cutting into finished panels.
- Keeping the heating load modest can let the garden office run on a lighter supply cable and a smaller sub-board.
- Laying a data cable in the same trench as the power supply saves digging a second trench later.

- Any existing plans or drawings of the garden office that may aid in the installation process.
