Battersea gardens can be compact, overlooked and busy, but the right layout makes them feel calm and usable. We create outdoor seating that suits everything from weekend brunches to evening gatherings, with patio areas, built-in benches and subtle lighting. Whether you’re near Battersea Park or closer to Battersea Power Station, we design around your lifestyle and the way your garden gets sun. Expect smart zoning for dining, lounging and circulation without wasting space.
Homes across SW11 and SW8 range from Victorian terraces and mansion blocks to luxury new builds around Nine Elms. Each brings different constraints: level changes, narrow side returns, basement lightwells, or balconies overlooking the garden. Our designs respond with practical details such as integrated storage benches, shade structures and low-glare lighting. We also plan seating heights, step depths and surfaces that feel comfortable and safe in daily use.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels and discuss how you want to use the space through the seasons. You’ll receive a clear design proposal and specification, then a tidy, well-managed build with careful protection of existing planting and finishes. Our team arrives when agreed, keeps access routes clear, and leaves the site clean at the end of each day. Battersea homeowners trust us for consistent workmanship, transparent communication and a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations.
Across Battersea, access can be tight through side passages and shared entrances, so we plan deliveries and build sequences carefully. Ground conditions vary from made-up ground near redevelopment zones to compacted clay in older gardens, so we specify the right sub-base and drainage. We also consider Wandsworth requirements where relevant, especially for structures, boundary treatments and lighting spill. The result is outdoor seating areas in London Borough of Wandsworth that look refined and perform long-term.

Costs depend on size, access and specification. As a guide, a small patio seating area typically starts around £2,500–£5,000. Mid-sized layouts with built-in benches, lighting and quality paving often fall between £6,000–£15,000. Larger designs with pergola seating, fire pit areas, premium stone and electrical works can be £15,000–£35,000+. We itemise options so you can prioritise what matters most.
Most projects take 3–10 working days, depending on demolition, groundworks and the complexity of features. A simple patio and seating zone may be completed in under a week, while pergolas, built-in benches, lighting and a fire pit can extend the programme to two or three weeks. Timescales are affected by access in Battersea terraces, curing times for concrete, and lead times for bespoke joinery or stone.
Many garden upgrades are permitted development, such as patios, low-level seating and most lighting, provided levels and boundaries aren’t significantly altered. Planning may be needed for taller pergolas, substantial shade structures, raised platforms, or if your property is listed or in a conservation area. We flag any likely issues early, check constraints relevant to the London Borough of Wandsworth, and can help you prepare information for approvals if required.
We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying installations covering workmanship and the structural integrity of key build elements such as sub-bases, retaining edges, fixings and constructed seating. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to products like paving, lighting fittings, pergola components and fire pit units. The warranty assumes normal domestic use and appropriate maintenance, and we’ll explain care requirements—cleaning, sealing (where needed) and winter checks—at handover.
We tailor the look to your home and garden proportions. Popular choices include porcelain paving for clean lines, sandstone or granite for a more natural feel, and composite or hardwood seating tops for warmth. Built-in benches can be rendered, brick-faced or timber-clad, with optional storage. Pergola seating can be timber or aluminium, and we can integrate shade screens, step lights and feature lighting to suit how you entertain and relax.
