Sevenoaks gardens deserve seating that works for family life, entertaining and quiet evenings alike. We design and build tailored patio areas, dining spaces and sun lounging zones that sit naturally within your planting and levels. Whether you’re close to Knole House or nearer Riverhead, we plan layouts that make the most of light, views and privacy. The result is a space you’ll use from spring through to late autumn.
The Sevenoaks District is known for large detached houses, executive homes and characterful period properties, often with generous plots. In TN13 and TN14, we regularly create multiple seating zones—one for morning coffee, another for dining, and a sheltered spot for cooler evenings. We match materials to the architecture, from clean porcelain paving for contemporary builds to natural stone that complements older homes. Every design prioritises comfortable circulation, practical maintenance and a premium finish.
Our process starts with a site visit to measure, check drainage and discuss how you want to use the space. We provide clear design options, material samples and a straightforward programme before work begins. Installations are handled by our in-house team with tidy working practices and careful protection of lawns, borders and access routes. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, precise workmanship and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Gardens around Sevenoaks can include sloping levels and clay-heavy soils, so we plan solid sub-bases and dependable drainage. Access can be tight on some streets near Sevenoaks High Street, so we organise deliveries, parking and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also consider nearby trees and root zones when setting out patios, pergolas and footings. If you’re in Dunton Green, Otford or TN15, we’ll tailor the build method to your site constraints and finish expectations.

Costs vary with size, paving choice and features. As a guide, a quality patio seating area often starts around £3,500–£7,500. Adding built-in benches, lighting and step details can take projects to £8,000–£15,000. Pergola seating and fire pit areas typically sit from £12,000–£25,000+ depending on structure, electrics and materials. We’ll confirm a detailed range after a site visit and design options.
Most patio seating areas take 4–8 working days once materials are on site. Larger schemes with multiple zones, built-in benches, lighting, steps or a pergola usually take 2–4 weeks. Timescales depend on ground preparation, drainage requirements, access for machinery, and curing time for concrete bases. We provide a clear programme and keep you updated if weather or deliveries affect the schedule.
Many garden seating projects are permitted development, especially patios and low-level hard landscaping. However, rules can change if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if you’re adding taller shade structures, pergolas or extensive lighting. Drainage and surface water management can also matter for larger paved areas. We’ll flag any likely permissions early and can help you check requirements with Sevenoaks District Council before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for outdoor seating area builds, covering installation issues such as sub-base performance, levels, and jointing where applicable. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to products like porcelain paving, lighting fittings and pergola components. The warranty is valid when the area is used as intended and maintained sensibly. We also give aftercare guidance to keep surfaces looking their best.
We design everything from clean-lined porcelain patios to natural sandstone, granite setts and composite decking zones. Popular features include built-in rendered or timber benches, pergola seating, fire pit areas, dining spaces, sun lounging platforms, and discreet shade structures. Lighting can be added as step lights, uplighters or warm perimeter washes. We’ll help you choose finishes that suit your home style, budget, and how you want to use the space year-round.
