If you want extra space without moving, a well-built garden structure is a smart upgrade for SE15 homes. We design and build garden offices, summer houses, workshops, sheds, log cabins, gazebos and pergolas to suit your lifestyle. Many clients around Nunhead Green and Telegraph Hill Park ask for year-round rooms with proper insulation and electrics. Every build is tailored to your plot, access and preferred finish.
Nunhead’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period cottages often come with long, mature gardens and side returns that affect access and delivery. We’re used to working carefully around established planting, tight boundaries and older outbuildings. Whether you’re near Nunhead Cemetery or closer to Peckham and East Dulwich, we match the building style to the property so it feels considered, not bolted on. Our layouts also account for privacy, overlooking and where the sun falls through the day.
We start with a site visit, then provide clear drawings and a written specification so you know exactly what’s included. Our team handles base preparation, structural build, doors/windows, weatherproofing and optional electrics and lighting, with tidy working practices throughout. You’ll get a realistic programme, staged payments and updates as we progress. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, straightforward communication and a finish that performs in British weather.
We plan builds around Southwark’s practical constraints, including parking, delivery timing and neighbour proximity. Many Nunhead gardens have clay-heavy ground and mature roots, so we choose the right foundation type and manage levels carefully. For terraces with limited side access, we design modular components that can be carried through. We also consider sightlines and privacy, especially on plots near Telegraph Hill Park and surrounding streets.

Costs vary by size, insulation level and finishes. A quality shed or small workshop often starts around £2,000–£6,000. Insulated garden offices and garden rooms typically range from £10,000–£30,000+, depending on glazing, electrics and heating. Log cabins and larger summer houses can be £12,000–£40,000+. We provide a detailed quote after a site survey in the Nunhead area.
Many projects take 1–3 weeks on site once materials are ready. A simple shed or pergola may be completed in a few days, while insulated garden rooms with electrics, plasterboard and premium glazing can take 2–4 weeks. Timescales depend on base works, access through the property, weather, and any bespoke joinery. We confirm a programme before starting and keep you updated throughout.
Many garden buildings fall under permitted development, provided they meet limits on height, placement, and use (for example, not being a separate dwelling). However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation considerations, or if you’re close to boundaries with taller structures. We’ll review your plans against current guidance for the London Borough of Southwark and advise if a planning application or lawful development certificate is sensible.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our garden building installations, covering structural assembly, fixings, and build quality when used and maintained as advised. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to products such as doors, windows, membranes and roofing systems. We also supply care guidance for timber treatment, ventilation and drainage so your building performs well long term. Any snagging issues are handled promptly.
You can choose from timber cladding styles (shiplap, feather edge, composite), modern flat or pitched roofs, and glazing options such as aluminium or uPVC doors and windows. Popular upgrades include insulated walls, acoustic lining for home offices, skylights, and built-in storage for workshops. We help you select finishes that suit period properties in Nunhead, and we’ll balance aesthetics with durability, ventilation and year-round comfort.
