Mitcham gardens can be surprisingly versatile, whether you’re close to Mitcham Common or tucked away near Figges Marsh. We design and build outdoor seating that makes better use of space, improves flow from the house, and adds a practical focal point. Choose from patio areas, pergola seating, fire pit areas and dedicated dining spaces. Every detail is planned for comfort, drainage and durability in CR4.
Local homes range from Victorian cottages with compact rear gardens to 1930s semis with wider plots, plus modern estates around Eastfields. We adapt seating layouts to suit your footprint, privacy needs and how the sun moves across the garden. Built-in benches can free up floor space, while sun lounging areas and shade structures help you use the garden more often. The result feels intentional, not squeezed in.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check access and discuss how you want to use the space. You’ll receive clear design options, material samples and a tidy, scheduled installation with minimal disruption. Our team protects lawns, plants and paths, and we keep you updated at each stage. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent pricing and aftercare that doesn’t disappear once the job is done.
Across the outdoor seating areas Mitcham area, we often work with mixed ground conditions and gardens that need careful levelling for stable patios. Access can be tight on older streets, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and parking to avoid disruption. We also factor in drainage and surface water management, especially where lawns meet hard landscaping. If you’re considering outdoor seating areas in London Borough of Merton, we’ll align the build with local expectations and practical constraints.

Costs vary with size, paving choice and features. As a guide, a small patio seating area may start from around £2,500–£5,000. Mid-sized spaces with built-in benches and lighting often sit between £6,000–£12,000. Larger designs with pergola seating, premium stone, and a fire pit area can range from £12,000–£25,000+. We provide itemised options so you can scale the spec to suit your budget.
Most projects take 3–10 working days depending on excavation, levels and the complexity of features. A straightforward patio with simple edging can be completed in under a week, while pergolas, built-in seating, lighting and fire pit areas add time for foundations, electrics and curing. Poor weather, restricted access, and skip placement can also affect schedules. We confirm a realistic programme after the site survey.
In many cases, garden seating areas, patios and pergolas fall under permitted development and don’t need planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re in a conservation area, if structures are unusually tall, or if you’re altering levels significantly. Drainage and surface water requirements may also apply. We’ll flag any likely constraints during the survey and can advise when it’s sensible to check with the London Borough of Merton before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our outdoor seating builds, covering installation issues such as movement from incorrect sub-base preparation, poor jointing, or fixings that fail under normal use. Materials (paving, timber, lighting components) are covered by the relevant manufacturer warranties, which we pass on to you. We also explain maintenance steps—like cleaning and resealing—so your seating area stays looking sharp for years.
Popular choices include porcelain paving for a crisp, low-maintenance finish, sandstone for a softer natural look, and brick detailing to suit period homes. Built-in benches can be rendered, timber-clad or faced in matching paving, and pergolas can be timber or aluminium. We can add shade structures, step lighting, uplighters, and fire pit areas (gas or wood, where suitable). We help you choose based on style, slip resistance, and upkeep.
