Shepherd's Bush gardens work hard—especially around W12 where outdoor space is often compact but valuable. We design outdoor seating that suits everyday life, whether you’re hosting friends after a show at Shepherd's Bush Empire or creating a calm corner away from the bustle near Westfield London. Expect practical layouts, durable finishes and details that make evenings outdoors feel effortless. Built-in benches, patio areas and shade structures can all be combined to fit your routine.
Homes here range from Victorian terraces to mansion conversions and modern apartments, each with different access and levels. We’re used to tight side returns, split-level gardens and balconies that need lightweight, compliant solutions. If you’re close to White City or Holland Park, we’ll plan seating that respects neighbouring sightlines while maximising usable space. Our designs also consider storage, drainage and year-round comfort, not just summer weekends.
We start with a site visit to measure, discuss how you’ll use the space, and map sun/shade through the day. You’ll receive a clear design proposal covering finishes, lighting positions, and options for pergola seating or fire pit areas. Our builds are tidy and well-managed, with careful protection of paths and interiors during access. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent scheduling, and a finish that lasts.
Outdoor seating areas in London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham often need smart logistics: narrow access, controlled parking, and considerate working hours. We plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption on busy streets around Shepherd's Bush Green. Ground conditions can vary between older garden soils and made-up ground from past works, so we assess sub-bases and drainage before laying patios. Where boundaries are close, we design lighting and pergolas to reduce glare and maintain privacy.

Costs vary with size, access and features. As a guide, a small patio seating area with simple paving and lighting often starts around £2,500–£5,000. Mid-sized designs with built-in benches, better stone, and more electrics commonly fall in the £6,000–£12,000 range. Larger schemes with pergola seating, fire pit areas, premium paving and drainage can be £12,000–£25,000+.
Most projects take 3–10 working days once the design and materials are agreed. A straightforward patio and seating layout can be completed in under a week, while pergolas, built-in benches, lighting circuits and fire pit areas add time. Access in W12 streets, curing times for mortar/concrete, and weather can affect the programme. We provide a realistic schedule before starting and keep you updated daily.
Many garden seating projects are permitted development, especially patios, built-in benches and low-level lighting. Planning may be needed for larger pergolas, tall shade structures, significant level changes, or if your property is listed or in a conservation area. Rules can also apply to drainage and how water is managed on site. We flag likely requirements early and can help you check with the council before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for outdoor seating builds, covering issues such as installation defects, structural failures in sub-bases, and problems caused by incorrect falls or fixing methods. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to products like paving, pergola components and lighting fittings. The warranty assumes normal use and reasonable maintenance, and we’ll explain how to care for surfaces and joints to keep everything performing well.
You can choose from porcelain paving, sandstone, granite setts, or composite decking depending on the look and maintenance you want. Built-in benches can be brick-rendered, timber-clad, or finished in stone to match the patio. Popular add-ons include pergola seating, slatted privacy screens, fire pit areas, and layered lighting (step lights, uplighters, festoon lines). We’ll guide you on slip resistance, heat retention and durability for your specific garden.
