    Garden Office

    I am looking to purchase a log cabin for the garden, which I intend to use as an office for my Limited company. Both myself and my wife work for the company. How much of the expense of the log cabin can the company pay for? Will this part of the property be eligble for CGT , if we sell the house and move on?

    Translation: Can I put my new shed through expenses ?

    Answer: Er, no.

      Answer: Er, no.

      I may be able to. Not strictly through expenses

        Hasn't this already been covered somewhere here?

        I seem to recall someone asking something similar last year.

              It does indeed seem possible.

              I would suggest to those with big sarcastic gobs to remain quiet. You're doing nobody any favours with your mindless quips, as the saying goes, "It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt". There is no limitation as to how many times a question can be asked on this forum, and whether a question was asked this year or last year, doesn't matter, tax legislation changes from year to year, and what was possible last year, may not be this year and vice versa. With the government putting emphasis on climate change, there could possibly be a tax break on implementing a garden office, as it reduces carbon emissions etc.

                  All I meant was that you didn't seem to be getting much response, so it might be worth checking what people said in the past.

                    If your new shed is not going to cost more than a few hundred quid I really wouldn't bother - this sounds more hassle than its worth.
