In this article we will look at the typical cost of building a sauna in your home.

The benefits of a home sauna.

Saunas are famously one of the healthiest and most relaxing treatments that you can take. The heat of a sauna loosens your muscles and opens your pores giving you benefits that you can both feel and see.

The steam from a sauna will help get rid of toxins and chemicals in your skin leaving it feeling refreshed. A session in the sauna will also increase your blood circulation, which is also good for your health.

Saunas have been popular for hundreds of years but in the UK it wasn’t that many decades ago that if you wanted to enjoy the benefits of a sauna you had to visit a health club or gym.

Nowadays a home sauna is within reach of most people and that brings added benefits. You don’t have to get in your car, you don’t have to share with people you don’t know, you can take a sauna when you want and you know it won’t be overcrowded.

The different types of home sauna.

Probably the cheapest way of building your own sauna is to build it from scratch yourself. If you have the skills and the inclination it isn’t a particularly difficult task although you will need to hire in a qualified and certified electrician to do the wiring.

The cost of timber and insulation will depend on how big you plan your DIY sauna to be, but you will need to buy a sauna door and a heater. The wood that you buy should be good quality, kiln dried tongue and groove boards.

A good sauna door can be bought for about £200 and heaters range in price from as little as £100 up to £500 or even more.

Your sauna could also be bought in modular form. Modular saunas can be assembled in a matter of hours. The modular kits consist of pre-assembled and fitted panels. They require no special skills to put them together but you will need to call in the electrician to wire in the heater and the lights.

An average, four person sauna in modular form will cost somewhere between £2,500 and £3,500.

Sitting between the DIY build and the modular sauna in terms of both price and level of necessary skill is the sauna kit.

Sauna kits require a little more in the way of carpentry skills but nothing beyond the home DIY enthusiast. You might need to make a couple of frame walls from 2” by 2” timber but then the kit supplier will provide all the other woodwork appropriate for the sauna dimensions.

A sauna kit for a four person sauna could cost anywhere between £1,500 and £2,500.

Once built, your sauna should need relatively little maintenance and be reasonably cheap to run. Whichever build method you choose and whatever price range you decide to go for, what is certain is that a home sauna represents an extremely good investment in both your lifestyle and your wellbeing.
