Internet Connection / WiFi needed in garden building

Have just had a garden office built at bottom of my garden and need internet / Wi Fi in there to use desktop computer, printer, smart TV, iphones, etc.

Wi Fi signal at back end of hour house is already very weak (step out of back door and it's non existent). Connection in the outbuilding needs to be strong without drop outs etc.

What is best solution?

Can I book (at a cost, naturally) a Virgin engineer to visit to assess and install best solution?  I really dont want to try doing this myself (am not DIY minded and prefer to use expert professionals) and am reluctant to book a third party local engineer to do in, as I am concerned their installation may not be up to the required spec.

Any advice appreciated....thanks.

    You will need some other expert professional to do this VM stop at the hub for cabling.

    Many electricians offer home networking and network cable installation services.

    It's a real pity when you were building the Office, that you didn't get the electrician to run two (an extra one for redundancy) external Cat 6 cables out.  As noted, a lot of electricians can take on this work for you.    VM will not do any work of this type.
