Tulse Hill has a mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and post-war estates, each with different garden layouts and access routes. We’re used to side passages, shared boundaries and tight working areas common around SW2 and neighbouring streets towards Herne Hill. Our team measures carefully so doors clear thresholds, frames sit square and drainage runs away from buildings. That local understanding helps prevent rocking sheds, cracking slabs and standing water.
We start with a site visit, check levels and ground make-up, then specify the right sub-base, reinforcement and slab thickness for your structure. Edges are shuttered cleanly, falls are set for drainage, and we leave a smooth, level finish ready for installation. You’ll get straightforward advice, written scope and tidy workmanship throughout. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, careful preparation and long-term performance.
Gardens in the London Borough of Lambeth can vary from firm ground to made-up areas that need deeper sub-bases. Around Brockwell Park and the surrounding streets, access can be narrow and parking controlled, so we plan deliveries and barrowing routes in advance. We also account for Victorian property drainage and boundary lines to keep water running away from walls. If you’re in the concrete bases tulse hill area, we’ll tailor the build to your plot and structure.

Costs depend on size, thickness, access and whether reinforcement is needed. As a guide, small shed bases often start around £350–£750, while larger summerhouse or greenhouse slabs are commonly £800–£1,800. Hot tub bases and heavier-duty reinforced slabs can be £1,200–£3,000+. Ground preparation, spoil removal, drainage falls and restricted access in SW2 can affect the final figure.
Many bases are completed in 1–2 days on site: day one for excavation, sub-base and shuttering, then pouring and finishing. Larger or reinforced slabs, awkward access, or extra drainage work can take 2–4 days. Concrete typically needs time to cure; light foot traffic may be possible after 24–48 hours, but we usually recommend waiting several days before placing heavy structures.
Most garden concrete bases for sheds, summerhouses and greenhouses are permitted development, provided the structure and placement meet standard rules. However, restrictions can apply for listed buildings, conservation considerations, boundary proximity, or if you’re adding a large outbuilding. Lambeth guidance can also affect drainage and surface water run-off. We’ll flag likely issues during the survey and can help you confirm requirements before work starts.
