If you want a garden office, summer house or workshop that feels like a real extension of your home, we can help. We build high-quality garden structures across BR3, with regular projects near Elmers End station and along the Croydon Tramlink route. From compact sheds to fully insulated garden rooms, every build is tailored to your plot and how you’ll use it. You’ll get a tidy site, solid foundations and a finish that looks right in your garden.
Elmers End has a mix of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and 1930s semis, each with different garden shapes and access constraints. We design around narrow side returns, shared boundaries and existing patios so the building sits neatly and functions properly. Our team understands how to maximise usable internal space without overwhelming the garden. If you’re in nearby Beckenham, Penge, Anerley or South Norwood, we can match materials and proportions to the local character.
We start with a site visit, measure-up and a practical design that considers drainage, sunlight and privacy. Next, we install the right base, build the structure, then complete doors, glazing, electrics coordination and finishes as agreed. You’ll have a clear scope, staged updates and workmanship that’s built to last. Homeowners choose us because we’re only around 15 minutes away and we stand behind our work.
As garden building contractors in London Borough of Bromley, we plan builds around typical access, parking and neighbour considerations found on residential streets. Ground conditions can vary, so we assess levels, drainage and base requirements before we start. We also factor in proximity to boundaries and existing trees, common near South Norwood Country Park. The result is a building that sits square, drains correctly and looks considered from day one.

Costs vary by size, insulation level and specification. As a guide, a quality shed or small summer house often starts from £2,500–£6,000. Insulated garden offices and garden rooms commonly fall between £10,000–£30,000+, depending on glazing, electrics, cladding and internal finishes. Larger log cabins, workshops or bespoke builds can be £25,000–£60,000+. We provide a detailed quote after a site survey in BR3.
A simple shed or pergola can take 1–3 days once materials are ready. Most garden offices and insulated garden rooms take around 2–6 weeks from start on site, depending on base works, access, weather and the level of internal fit-out. Bespoke log cabins or larger workshops may take longer. We’ll confirm a realistic programme after the survey and keep you updated at each stage.
Many garden buildings are allowed under permitted development, provided they meet limits on height, placement and overall garden coverage. However, rules can change for listed buildings, flats, maisonettes, or if there are restrictions on the property. We’ll check the key constraints for your site in the London Borough of Bromley and advise if a planning application or lawful development certificate is sensible before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for qualifying garden building projects, covering structural installation issues such as fixings, framing and base-related defects caused by poor workmanship. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to products like doors, windows, membranes and cladding systems. We also give clear care guidance for timber finishes to help maintain appearance and performance. Any snagging is handled promptly and professionally.
You can choose from traditional timber summer houses, contemporary garden rooms with composite cladding, robust workshops, log cabins, and open structures like gazebos or pergolas. Popular options include cedar or larch cladding, EPDM or felt roofing, aluminium or uPVC glazing, and insulated walls for year-round use. We’ll help you balance looks, maintenance and budget, then tailor the layout, doors and windows to your garden and privacy needs.
