A well-planned seating zone turns a Streatham garden into an extra room, ready for weekday coffees and weekend hosting. We design and build patio areas, built-in benches and sun lounging spaces that feel natural to your layout. Whether you’re near Streatham Common or along Streatham High Road, we’ll create a comfortable spot with the right balance of privacy, shade and flow. Every detail is finished to suit year-round use in SW16 and SW2.
Streatham’s mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, mansion flats and modern apartments often comes with compact gardens, level changes and shared boundaries. We’re used to narrow side access in Streatham Hill terraces and the longer plots around Streatham Vale, where zoning matters. Our designs consider sightlines from rear extensions, bi-fold doors and raised decks, so the seating area works from inside and out. Materials and proportions are chosen to complement period brickwork and contemporary refurbishments alike.
We start with a site visit, listening to how you want to use the space, then produce a clear plan for levels, drainage, lighting and finishes. Installation is managed end-to-end by our in-house team, with tidy working practices and a defined schedule. You’ll get straightforward specifications, transparent options and a workmanship-backed 10-year warranty. Local homeowners choose us for consistent craftsmanship, reliable communication and seating areas that stay solid through every season.
Across the London Borough of Lambeth, Streatham gardens often have clay-heavy ground and mature tree roots, so we specify the right sub-base and drainage to prevent sinking and pooling. Access can be tight in mansion flat conversions, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also factor in boundary walls, party fences and neighbour considerations common around Streatham Park and SW16 streets. Where required, we align designs with local guidance and practical site constraints.

Most garden seating works—patios, low built-in benches, pergolas and typical shade structures—are usually permitted development, but there are exceptions. If your property is listed, in a conservation area, or you’re adding tall structures close to boundaries, rules can change. Fire pits are generally fine, but we’ll advise on safe placement, surfaces and clearances. For outdoor seating areas in London Borough of Lambeth, we check constraints and recommend approvals where needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our outdoor seating builds, covering issues such as installation defects, unstable sub-bases, and failures linked to our construction methods. Materials (paving, pergola components, lighting fittings) may also carry manufacturer warranties, which we pass on and document. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse or extreme events, but we’re always available to inspect and advise if anything concerns you after completion.
Popular choices include porcelain paving for low maintenance, sandstone or granite for a natural finish, and composite or hardwood features for built-in benches. Pergola seating can be timber or aluminium, with slatted roofs, retractable canopies or climbing plants. For dining spaces we often add subtle lighting, power points and wind screening; for sun lounging areas, wider paving modules and glare-reducing tones work well. We help you choose options that suit your home and budget.
