Hi guys, I'm about to buy an outdoor office for my wife so she can do her hobby in that in peace. It's very impressive, electrics already in and just needs an electrician to wire up to the fuse box, lights in... Pretty much ready to go. However, we do feel she will need water and a sink. She will Not need very much at all and there will be no food waste or extremely dirty waste water. The office is going a good 10m from the house and directly across the garden. I would firstly struggle with running mains to it, I'd be reluctant to make such a mess across the garden (electrics runs around the garden) as I presume it would need a rigid pipe running directly to it? I'm also concerned about the added cost.
I was wondering about having a caravan style pump system but we would want a nice modern looking sink and I don't know how that works - do you need a specific tap that turns on the pump or is it just a switch you press before turning the tap on? There wouldn't be much water being used so waste would go directly to a waste container just like a caravan. Her idea is to sometimes have lessons in there and a sink would look much nicer than bringing the water from the house in a standing jug, which would be the only other option.
So your opinions and help would be appreciated. To summarise,
Am I right in thinking it would be a costly and messy/difficult job running water to it (as with mains running water, you'd certainly need a proper drainage as well I expect)
Is the caravan pump idea a possibility if we want a nice sink and tap or would I need a caravan tap?
I admit, bringing it from the house is an easy and obvious option but I think it's more about the looks of having a sink in place with running water and it looking more professional than a jug.
Any help appreciated.
